With the exception of the topics of the deflationary pressures of technology and demographics, @LukeMikic21 writes out a good chunk of my own personal macro economic thesis much more eloquently than I ever could.
Lots of talk surrounding hyperinflation lately so here's a thread and article on how #Bitcoin plays into..
- The 75-100 year Long term debt cycle
- Hyperinflation
- Repo market madness
-''Transitory inflation''
Is hyperinflation the catalyst to trigger Hyperbitcoinization?

🇨🇦's "sovereign wealth fund" isn't a fund but "another borrowing vehicle" for fiscal plans.
This isn't an investment in our future. They're hiding a larger deficit spending.
This is financial engineering one would expect from a penny stock fraud, not gov.
via BMO.
Most people say they want affordable housing.
What they usually mean is:
“I want my kids to be able to buy a house, but I also want my house to go up 8% a year forever, and I definitely do not want a fourplex near me.”
That is the Canadian housing crisis in one sentence.
Left: 🇨🇦’s Spaceport Nova Scotia. 🇨🇦’s Gov is paying a private party $200m to be one of the users, on Gov owned land.
Right: Norway's Andøya Spaceport, 90% Gov owned. They built it for $43 million (€29.3m).
Any questions?
Today we're starting a slow rollout of bitcoin backed loans to customers on @shakepay
Bitcoin backed loans are one of the most requested products since we started.
For those who never want to sell and live on a bitcoin standard, borrowing against your bitcoin is one of the most powerful financial products available.
Products like these are hard to pull off, and Canadians have been underserved for so long. Insanely excited to get this in the hands of all shakers.
Age verification on the internet is just a government scam to identify who is critical of the government on the internet.
Kids will find a way, and it's their parents responsibility to deal with it.
Digital ID must be pushed back or you will never have any privacy again.
This is why prices are so high in Canada. We've increased the money supply by 400%.
Stop blaming climate change, wars, or whatever other bullshit excuse. It's money printing and govt deficits.
Canada has a huge issue with public sector bloat but I don't think most realize how bad it is.
Around 25% of these employed in Canada work for the public sector but in many provinces, it's over 30%.
The main reason for high taxes & low productivity.
Breakdown by province:
BC Government projects a record-breaking $13.3 billion deficit. Announces tax hikes across the board, raising the first income tax bracket, and FREEZING tax bracket indexation until 2030. Tax brackets will NOT rise with inflation.
Canada really starting to ramp up those printing presses again. M2 jumping ... not surprised.
I wonder how aggressive this gets as AI is enters the exponential part of its growth rate? UBI anyone? It has an 8.12% CAGR since 1973.
Everything Government Touches Goes 8X The Cost Of The Same Thing Operated By Non-Governmental Organizations
Why?
Simple really
There are SO MANY:
Consultants
Policy Creations
Policy Reviews
Policy Amendments
Meetings
Mission Definitions
I could go on but its 6 more pages
So the Canadian government spent billions of tax dollars building out EV battery plants only to allow state-subsidized Chinese EVs to wipe them out.
Great foresight. Billions wasted with no accountability.
Update: The federal government has lost its appeal on a ruling by the Federal Court that found the invocation of the Emergencies Act during the 2022 Freedom Convoy Protests was unjustified
