In a world where everything feels synthetic (AI content, engineered earnings, debt-fueled growth) scarcity and authenticity win.
Gold’s rally shows the instinct is still alive.
Bitcoin is just the digital evolution of that same flight to truth.
Jcal, I love you, and I say this with the love and appreciation for you, but you have zero clue what you’re talking about. This is the dumbest take of all time!
We’re playing 2/4K 20k ante, the biggest game everyone in the lineup has ever played beside me and Rick. Only 3 of the 15 players who played are professional gamblers, the rest are business people playing for the fun and excitement. No one is advertising to win in “50k” buy-in games, I don’t and wouldn’t even play a 50k buy-in game! These are real pots and real emotions. I don’t know how you don’t get it, I once saw you about to shit your pants when you got all in for 100k with your QQ against 74s and beg to run it twice! Imagine how you would feel playing 4m pots.
If you asked your two home game buddies @stanleytang@Elamawy before tweeting this nonesone they would tell you how retarded you are! Now I know why @chamath@DavidSacks and @friedberg get so tilted at fired up at you on the podcast sometimes! 😀😂
@Breedlove22 The irony of Bitcoin: its premise is that humans can’t be trusted with money, but that applies individually too. We grasp the lesson at the civilizational scale and still fail at the personal scale, because the same wiring is in all of us.
Looking at the ZEC price action has me excited for the upcoming @naval tweet explaining how financial ruin is just the universe teaching you non-attachment.
