Remembering my friend Yannick, who was killed by a police squad in his Antwerp home 2 years ago for the “crime” of being a prepper.
This was a note posted on his front door the day after the tragedy: “Rest in peace Yannick, may your soul guard our human rights”

Marilyn Manson has a new album out, “One Assassination Under God”. It’s popular apparently. The lyrics are evil: claiming victimhood, raging, expecting execution, and vowing to take merciless vengeance. It seems he’s a voice of the radical left who is doubling down and preparing for an outright war.

Now here’s a book to the bitcoiner’s taste! “The Financing of Cathedral Building in the Middle Ages”—W.H. Vroom, 1981.

Translation of the back cover:

“In this book, for the first time, a general overview is provided of how money was raised in the Middle Ages to cover the construction costs of cathedrals. This systematic study reveals a financing system that turns out to be as monumental as the cathedral itself.

It was already known that cathedral construction was not the result of a spontaneous popular movement and also not the product of collective genius. Instead, new misunderstandings could arise from viewing the financial funding of the construction purely as an act of devotion or a fervent willingness to sacrifice, based on the random filling of offering boxes. The complexity and organization of the financing process is hardly different from what is found in cathedral

This new paper is a true declaration of war: the ECB claims that early #bitcoin adopters steal economic value from latecomers. I strongly believe authorities will use this luddite argument to enact harsh taxes or bans. Check 🧵 for why:

el


Rather than praising bitcoin as a tech paradigm shift à la petroleum and the internet, the authors introduce the blatantly luddite argument that "early adopters" ... "increase their real wealth and consumption" ... "at the expense of [latecomers]".

el


Then they go on to brazenly advocate for legislation ... "to prevent bitcoin prices from rising or to see bitcoin disappear altogether" in order to prevent "the division of society".

el


The authors also model some projections, to illustrate the paltry amount of BTC that will remain available for latecomers. (Woe is me! Conspicuously

Just closed out my ETH/BTC short. It was mainly meant as a hedge in case of a big Bitcoin selloff, with the thought that ETH would crash harder. I probably broke even on the trade, having had to pay margin interest for about 6 months.

Bitcoin is demonetizing real estate. A lot of “invoosters” chomping at the bit to “buy the dip” in real estate are going to get burnt badly. It’s for the most part essentially a shitcoin, just one that’s slightly less shitty than the dollar.

A call to crypto flippers

Whether or not there is another “alt season”, I invite all you crypto aficionados to redirect your life’s energy, up to now invested in feeding this addiction to coin flipping/“invoosting”, towards cleaning up your act instead. Come join us on the bitcoin front—we have a lot to give, yes, but we need you, too.

You see we’re approaching a battle of the ages here. One that will likely involve bank runs, devaluations, and wars in the West. A conflict whose outcomes will certainly impact the lives of our children and many generations after. And for that years’ long struggle our world needs all the help it can get.

I have a lot of sympathy for people suffering from behavioral addictions and general lack of impulse control—I struggle with this still myself. In fact I believe addiction is the dominant
