@JayW132 Well done! I've been teaching bitcoin for years and the hardest part is to decide on what and how to start. I think your comparisons to cash and credit work well. Everyone can relate to the use of cards vs cash and how we are going digital. No one uses bank checks anymore!

@keegreil True. Sigh.

@hmichellerose Immigration. The movement of peoples has generally been good for humans. A concentrated stream in or out of a particular country in large numbers has often been bad. Obstacles will never work given enough motivation. Answers/ solutions may lie in grasping these motivations.

@TheGuySwann Agree. It would be much more rewarding to lose an intense debate then to win a drunken blathering post fest. But much like unseeing something, you can't just lose 40 or 50 IQ points to enjoy the fight...

@LukeKni40895721 @BobEUnlimited It's all in the timing isn't it? I think the USG can kick the can down the road quite a long time considering what Japan has been doing... Time enough for technological deflation? Who knows...

Power bills increased by $300 per year for each home in a Norwegian town after the local #bitcoin miner shut down.

The miner paid 20% of the area's grid fees, thus subsidizing other consumers. With the miner gone, people's power bills are skyrocketing.

@EricBalchunas IMO We will not be on a Bitcoin-only standard in my lifetime so at some point I will have to convert to fiat to achieve some goals that are only achievable in Fiat. I expect that is why some of these other long-term hodlers have been selling.

[Brooke Williams @BrookeInSB]

@EricBalchunas The Crux of the understanding between a total supply cap and the idea of 'running out'. It is very possible to have a total supply cap and yet never run out of Bitcoin on exchanges because there will always be sellers, either out of desire or of need.

@philina56 @Breedlove22 @elonmusk Agree. It's those limits that are the trouble spots. I think most would agree that absolute isn't actually absolute. I'm a crossword junkie so definitions matter :-)

@DzambhalaHODL Tell me exactly how much you think math cares about humans...🙂

@adamtaggart This youngsters don't understand. We had to work that long because it was before computers. And you had to stop work every few hours to resharpen your stone chisel.

@IIICapital Pay off debt from buying houses for family members in 2020. K?

[Brooke Williams @BrookeInSB]

@adamtaggart Seems like we have the same problem. Smarter and better looking spouses. Oh well, back to the salt mine.
