I’d personally like to thank the US government for so poetically demonstrating the problems we are trying to fix by attacking #Bitcoin in a $3,500,000,000,000.00 infrastructure bill.
We’ve been trying to describe the problem for quite some time, but could never do it this well.
Satoshi Nakamoto deserves the Nobel Prize in Economics for the invention of #Bitcoin, followed by the Nobel Peace Prize for the invention of a monetary system that doesn't rest on the threat of violence.
@lexfridman Yes. #Bitcoin is the first engineered monetary network. Satoshi brought the principles of mathematics, science, & engineering to the field of economics with an invention that has the potential to improve the lives of billions of people. That definitely merits the Nobel Prize.
