How many times do we need to learn this lesson...
When @Saifedean Ammous won't shut up about something, it means pay attention and start researching.
1 year ago I thought his "🇺🇸 is a 🇮🇱 puppet state" claims were too extreme to be true.
Now it all makes sense.

"Bitcoin mining isn’t just about security—it ensures the fair distribution of coins, preventing centralization, inflation, and control by a single authority. Proof of work formalizes this in a way no other system can."

THE CPI SCAM EXPOSED BY @Saifedean Ammous
Inflation isn’t just about numbers—it’s about what you’re forced to give up. The government says inflation is only 2–3%, but that’s because you’re not eating ribeye anymore—you’re choking down soy sludge instead.
CPI doesn’t measure the real cost of living. It tracks what you settle for when prices soar. The quality of life quietly crumbles, while the official stats stay “under control.”
They print, you suffer. #Bitcoin fixes this. 🥩⚡
Agree or disagree? Let’s hear it #nostr

In this episode @Saifedean Ammous had an interesting rip with @Cory 🦢 Swan about Eugene Fama’s recent BTC comments. Saif mentioned that none of the prominent economists have paid attention to his book, The Bitcoin Standard, even after Bitcoin has ripped 10x since he published it.
My immediate thought about the reason why they don’t pay any attention is because Saif’s book and actionable advice (just buy Bitcoin and hodl) makes all of those professors and fiat economists completely obsolete. Their models, theories and classroom rhetoric is idiotic when compared to just buying bitcoin. None of them want to realize that their life’s work has led to nothing, but that’s the sad reality.
If I can outperform every hedge fund in the world, all of them are going away, whether they realize it or not.

I'm reading The Bitcoin Standard by Saif and want to leave my self some mental notes.
In The Bitcoin Standard, @Saifedean Ammous explains that salability—the ease of exchanging money without losing value—is the ultimate measure of sound money. Historically, many forms of money failed because they lacked one or more dimensions of salability. Here’s how he frames the three attributes of salability, with examples of past monies that fell short:
------------------------
1. Salability Across Time (Store of Value)
⮕Attribute: Scarcity + Durability → Retains value over generations.
❌Example of Failure: Fiat Currencies (e.g., Continental Dollar, Zimbabwean Dollar)
❌Lacked Scarcity: Governments inflated supplies, destroying purchasing power. The Continental Dollar, printed excessively during the American Revolution, became nearly worthless (“not worth a Continental”).
❌Lacked Durability: Paper money degrades physically, and trust in issuers erodes over time. Hyperinflation in Zimbabwe (2008) rendered

What’s Really in Your Breakfast Bowl?
Last week at our Orange Hatter meeting, we dug into Chapters 2 and 3 of Fiat Food by
Matthew Lydian
and
@Saifedean Ammous
.
Let me just say—what we learned about the history of cornflakes completely blew our minds.
Did you know that the Kellogg cereal many of us grew up associating with a "healthy breakfast" was originally designed as a purposefully bland food meant to curb carnal desires? I know, it sounds crazy.
Here’s the story:
John Harvey Kellogg, a devout Seventh-Day Adventist, and others within the movement believed that red meat was the root cause of carnal desires, including the urge to masturbate.
Their solution? A vegetarian, tasteless diet to suppress these urges.
The extent of their beliefs included horrific measures, like the mutilation of

I never understood it before taking @Saifedean Ammous 's principles of economics course. You're right. The Austrian perspective suggests that stable, unmanipulated interest rates would lead to housing being valued primarily for its use-value rather than speculation. A more stable housing market emerges when homes are built based on genuine demand for shelter rather than artificial investment incentives.
This aligns housing with its fundamental purpose: providing shelter and community, while avoiding the boom-bust cycles that make housing increasingly unaffordable for actual residents.

In a world dulled by fiat illusions, Saifedean Ammous was a spark that ignited my awakening. His words sliced through the noise, revealing the truth of sound money and the path to sovereignty. Like Bitcoin itself, his insights are timeless—built on principles, not expedience. For that, I owe him gratitude and a nod as I walk this journey.

Bitcoin has now been working and trading for 15 full calendar years. It's time to see how it's doing and run some numbers.
On Jan 1, 2010, there were 1,624,000 bitcoin in circulation trading at around $0.001 each. The total market capitalization of bitcoin was ~$1,624.
On Dec 31, 2024, there were 19.803 million bitcoin trading at around $93,389 each, for a total market capitalization of $1.85 trillion.
In total over the 15 years, the size of bitcoin cash balances has increased by 110,400,000,000,000%, or around 110 billion percent.
If, during the next 15 years, bitcoin grows at only 1 ten millionth of its growth rate over the last 15 years, it grows to a total market cap of around $210 trillion, making it larger than all the world's fiat currencies and government bonds combined.

“ One of the most important ways in which the measurement of the CPI has been manipulated is through the removal of house prices from the basket of market goods, under the pretense that a house is in an investment good, an absurd redefinition. Investments produce cash flows, but a person’s own home cannot produce an income. On the contrary, it is consumed and it depreciates and requires continuous expenditure to maintain it. The fiat standard first destroyed the ability of individuals to save, then forced them to treat their home as their savings account. With low salability and divisibility, houses constitute terrible savings vehicles, but by excluding it from CPI, and teaching people to treat it as a savings account, inflation magically appears beneficial.”

🚗 Life’s a Juggle, But We Made It Work: A Year (and four months) with Orange Hatter Women.
Picture this: one mom called in from the side of an ice rink, bundled up while her son played hockey. Another joined from a sunny beach, squeezing in some learning between vacation waves. And yet another, in a completely different time zone, was fighting to stay awake as the rest of us dove into deep discussions.
That’s been the heart of Orange Hatter Women since we started in August 2023—messy, chaotic, and beautiful.

None of us really knew what we were doing, but we figured it out together, week by week.

Investing in any emerging technology that obsoletes previously used tech ends up profitable. Think cars vs the horse and buggy, or Internet retailers vs brick and mortar. The bigger the business the new tech displaces, the more value can be captured in the transition. Only there's literally no bigger business than central banking, so Bitcoin is more value accruing than any previous tech shift in history.

“The demand for #bitcoin stems from the need of individuals all over the world to carry out transactions that bypass political controls and to have an inflation-resistant store of value.
“For as long as political authorities impose restrictions and limitations on individuals transferring money, and for as long as government money is easy money whose supply can be easily expanded according to the whims of politicians, demand for bitcoin will continue to exist.
“And Bitcoin’s diminishing supply growth is likely to lead to its value appreciating over time, thus attracting ever-larger numbers of people to use it as a store of value.”
- @Saifedean Ammous, The Bitcoin Standard, pg 249

What I just can't wrap my head around:
You confront specific Muslim authorities with the fact that fiat money is created through riba (originating from loans with interest), and they say nothing. I don't mean ordinary Muslims, but scholars who engage in economic issues or entire institutions and companies that have literally made the fight against riba their mission. So, authorities that should be directly concerned.
But they say: nothing.
They could argue and overwhelm me with their knowledge (I'm just a web dev), but there is nothing to argue about, so they don't. Instead, they silence the topic and continue to sell their financial products based on fiat money.
This is such a selective deafness and blindness that I would only expect from completely rotten hearts. The false vanity and arrogance of not wanting to admit that they might be completely

You hit the nail on its head. It really is frustrating. I remember when I was a kid there were plenty of conversations about how banks live on riba and that we only should use them as necessary. It's all dead now. Banking have won this round.
This is why I appreciate people like @Saifedean Ammous and Harris Irfan when they talk about this.

Finally, an interesting Bitcoin podcast!
It’s been a while since I’ve seen people argue in Bitcoin but @Saifedean Ammous managed to pull Saylor into an interesting conversation about credit and lending in Bitcoin.
Saylor apparently hasn’t fully thought through the implications of 21M and remains wedded to his fiat ideas.
He expects there to be yield on Bitcoin in future, but never says where it will come from in a completely fixed supply money.. “They’ll have to sell their assets to finance themselves!” - yeah no shit Michael!
The only way to generate yield in Bitcoin terms is to mismatch duration - literally run a Ponzi scheme. But Saylor expects that because the US Government will back the banks that this can’t go wrong 🤣🤣
Saif takes @allen line that capital will flow but HODLers will take equity rather than yield.

Ya llegó el episodio 12 🥳
Volviendo a una baja preferencia temporal por @Saifedean Ammous, autor de El Patrón Bitcoin.

La respuesta está en el clip 👇
En este artículo se explica por qué las monedas fiduciarias conducen a la degeneración de la sociedad y por qué el bitcoin nos hará volver a una baja preferencia temporal y a una salvación cultural.

Just started reading @Saifedean Ammous and Matthew Lysiak book #fiat food. What a crazy first few chapters. Really impressed with the clarify of the story telling. Will certainly be recommending it to my family to read (they probably won’t but at least I tried 🤦🏻♂️😂)

As @Saifedean Ammous said- the three foodgroups defined as protein, fat and carbs is a psyop. The real food groups are actually meat, fat, and bones

#TheBitcoinStandard simplified to the max 🧡
CHAPTER 2: PRIMITIVE MONEY
Early Forms of Money: Seashells, beads, and livestock were early forms of money due to rarity and utility.
Functionality in Trade: These items simplified trade by serving as mediums of exchange.
Limitations: Primitive money had limitations in durability, divisibility, and portability.

Economics make sense now. Highly recommend this one. Buying The Fiat Standard next. (With Sats, because Fiat international payments suck and are outdated AF).

It’s not new, communist central planners have been saying something like this for at least the last century. They always think that with *x new technology buzzword* like big data, regression analysis, or even Microsoft Excel, that they will have the computing power to overcome Mises’ Economic Calculation problem. The reason why it’ll never work, despite how much computing power they have, is that without property, there’s no cost. No cost, no economic calculation. No calculation, no production. You can see @Saifedean Ammous explain it even better here from 23:28-25:00, then the AI part from 31:40-35:45 Everything in between is great too.

The most impressive marketing coup of the last decade was how shitcoiners eliminated the stigma around ponzis by rebranding them as "staking" and in doing so launched a new golden age of ponzi schemes while media & regulators are still trying to figure out what's going on.
