Many friends still find it hard to believe there's an aircraft inside our car, but it's really that simple: one click for automatic separation and reconnection. This is our Flying Car
When butter was demonised, Unilever sold margarine.
When tallow was demonised, Procter and Gamble sold Crisco.
When eggs were demonised, Kellogg's sold cereal.
When red meat was demonised, Cargill sold soy.
When raw milk was demonised, Nestle sold infant formula.
When leather was demonised, BASF sold PVC.
When wool was demonised, ExxonMobil sold polyester feedstock.
When animal fat was demonised, the seed-oil industry grew from a niche product to the most consumed food ingredient on earth.
Every demonisation of an animal product made a specific group of shareholders very rich.
Every one of those products had been eaten by humans for thousands of years without incident.
The science changed the moment a substitute existed to sell.
Follow the money. The advice will start to make a lot more sense.
Value is not a physical thing
To all the people who think bitcoin can’t have value because it’s not tangible...
Tangible assets constitute the following percentage of the Mag7 market caps:
Nvidia: 0.66%
Apple: 1.38%
Tesla: 4.06%
Microsoft: 7.29%
Alphabet: 8.39%
Meta: 9.56%
Amazon: 16.28%
Combined weighted average: 5.79%
If you liquidated all of these companies’ physical assets, they wouldn’t amount to 6% of their valuation. There have been days in which the market caps of these companies have moved by more than the total value of their physical assets.
If 94% of the value of the most valuable companies on earth is non-physical, then value does not have to be physical.
If digital things have no value, then you should have no problem with giving me your computer to erase all the data from it. I will return your computer to you in the same exact physical form. I will just press a few buttons that remove all your data, photos, and contacts, and make it impossible for you to restore them. If value can only be tangible, then all of these digital things have no value, and you shouldn’t mind me deleting them as long as the devices return in their original state. I don’t think you would.
Technology, data, business knowledge, customer base, brands, and so much more are non-physical assets whose value likely exceeds that of all the planet’s physical objects and land. This is something most people understand in their daily lives, but because most people have no understanding of money, they do not understand how it applies to money, too.
Most people think their money is physical, but in reality, most fiat currencies today are 90%+ digital, and usually less than 10% of the supply is physical paper money. There are no stacks of dollars in your bank sitting in a box under your name, available for you to pick up at any time. A tiny fraction of the money is physical, and the rest is digital, manufactured in various quantities by your bank, government, central bank, and other pedophiles, in quantities based on pure vibes. People still give this non-physical fiat money value because it is the only money they can use with a bank account, since governments only license banks that use their local fiat shitcoin. There is no need for the money to be physical to work; digital fiat money works as well as physical fiat money; or as badly.
Bitcoin is an entirely digital money, but it is given value for far more intelligent and peaceful reasons than fiat money. You can read more about that in my books The Bitcoin Standard and The Fiat Standard, which you can buy from Amazon or https://t.co/Va3iL87Ups.
A common objection to bitcoin’s value is: “But if people stop believing in the value of bitcoin it can lose all value.” But that is true of everything. If people stop believing in the value of gold, it would lose value and just become another worthless rock. If people stop believing in the value of electronic devices then Apple and Nvidia go to zero. If people stop believing in the value of Manhattan, then all Manhattan real estate goes to zero. If people discover that tomatoes are poisonous, they stop believing in the value of tomatoes, and the entire planet’s tomato industry goes to zero. Just because something is physical does not guarantee its value, as we can see from the infinite amount of sand and rocks on our Earth left completely untouched by human hands. Physical things can be valueless and non-physical things can have value. Value and physicality are two independent things that are orthogonal to each other. You are doing yourself a disservice if you are unable to benefit from the world’s most advanced money and best saving technology because you are unable to see that value can be non-physical in this one instance, when you have no problem seeing it elsewhere.
“We need a new foreign policy that says we oughta mind our own business, bring our troops home, defend this country, defend our borders.”
— @RonPaul in 2007 in the GOP debates
Watching this debate is always so bittersweet, but it’s even worse now that the Iran war has started. Listen and remember that the GOP sided with John McCain and Mitt Romney over this guy.
“We dug a hole for ourselves, and we dug a hole for our party. We’re losing elections, and we’re going down [in 2008] if we don't change it, and it has all to do with foreign policy, and we have to wake up to this fact.”
As predicted, the GOP went on to lose in 2008 while Obama was pretending to be the peace candidate. Obama’s foreign policy record was Syria, Libya, Ukraine, Yemen, Iraq, killing 90% of civilians in drone strikes, etc.
We had so many off-ramps. We should’ve listened.
Bitcoin moved 2.4% tonight.
A geopolitical headline hit, thin weekend
liquidity did the rest, and $864 million in
overleveraged positions got flushed.
240,000 traders wiped out.
Gold dropped 11.2% this week. The S&P
hit its lowest close of 2026. The Russell
2000 is in correction territory.
And the guy who bought Bitcoin on a
Saturday morning and went to the park
with his kids didn't even notice.
No margin call. No liquidation. No stress.
Just an asset sitting in cold storage doing
exactly what it's supposed to do during
global uncertainty.
The 240,000 traders who got wiped tonight all had one thing in common, they added complexity to something that was already working.
Buy Bitcoin. Put it in cold storage. Go live your life.
Stay humble. Stack sats.
Zach Foust perfectly breaks down how The Rothschild Family orchestrated the corruption of America over the last 200 years
This breaks down every major event, in order. You just need to watch it:
The 20 millionth Bitcoin was mined yesterday. Now there are only one million new Bitcoins to be mined, which will take over 100 years.
Decentralized, inflation-proof, global money.
BREAKING: 20,000,000 BITCOIN HAS JUST BEEN OFFICIALLY MINED
ONLY 1,000,000 BITCOIN LEFT TO MINE FOR THE NEXT 114 YEARS 🤯
THE MOST SCARCE ASSET IN THE HISTORY OF MANKIND
When I listened to this episode of Joe Rogan with Andreas Antonopolous in 2016 it made sense because I was new to Bitcoin.
But now in 2024 we all can see that Andreas was 100% right. This is exactly what's happening in our society right now.
It is almost identical to the playbook that is being used to cover up the UFO phenomenon.
Everyone denies everything, flood the zone with unverifiable information, make it impossible to discern truth, discredit whistleblowers by attacking their credibility, etc etc.
