That’s my bitcoin statistics
View attachment 66151
See that’s the thing
I don’t need a halving cycle and a bull narrative to cash out.

I can pull 70–80% off boring Aussie tickers while still holding the bag long term.
You’re basically at the roulette table waiting for Bitcoin to land on green, I’m just clipping steady dividends and stacking capital regardless

Problem is you’re stacking government money. Government money goes down in value not up the purchasing power of the Almighty dollar has dropped significantly. Bitcoin purchased him power however will only go up mark my word.

Sound money is a currency that preserves its purchasing power over time, resisting inflation and arbitrary devaluation to enable stable economic planning and long-term savings, often exemplified by gold-backed systems.
Hard money, closely related, is a scarce, asset-backed form like gold or Bitcoin with a fixed supply that’s durable and resistant to overproduction, promoting fiscal discipline, trust, and economic stability by preventing wealth dilution through unlimited printing

U do u man but telling ppl to just blindly invest in bitcoin is jist reckless IMHO

Markets r ruthless...
I just set up a 36% APY vault for

And I never told people to blindly invest. I’ve shared heaps of Memes and pictures about bitcoin lots of education going on here.

Summary of The Bitcoin Standard by Saifedean Ammous


Published in 2018, The Bitcoin Standard: The Decentralized Alternative to Central Banking is an economic treatise that traces the history of money from ancient commodities to modern fiat currencies, arguing that Bitcoin represents the pinnacle of “sound money”—a form resistant to debasement and government control. Ammous, an economist and Bitcoin advocate, uses historical analysis to critique the flaws of unsound money systems and positions Bitcoin as a superior, decentralized alternative that could foster long-term societal prosperity.


The Evolution of Money and the Rise of Sound vs. Unsound Systems


The book begins by exploring money’s origins as a tool for exchange, selected based on “salability”—its divisibility, portability, and ability to store value over time, often measured by the stock-to-flow ratio (existing supply divided by annual production). Early societies experimented with items like shells, beads, and livestock, but these failed due to low salability. Precious metals, particularly gold, emerged as the dominant “commodity money” because of their scarcity, durability, and high stock-to-flow ratio, enabling global trade and innovation during the 19th-century gold standard era. However, gold’s centralization in banks made it vulnerable to dilution, leading to the abandonment of the gold standard after World War I in favor of fiat money—government-issued currency backed only by decree. This shift introduced “unsound money,” prone to inflation and manipulation, which Ammous links to economic instability, recessions, and even wars, as governments print money to fund deficits without accountability.


The Societal Impacts of Unsound Money: Time Preference and Economic Distortions


Ammous introduces the concept of “time preference,” the trade-off between present and future value, arguing that unsound money raises it by eroding savings through inflation, encouraging short-term consumption, debt, and low productivity. Under fiat systems influenced by Keynesian and monetarist economics, central banks distort price signals—essential market mechanisms for resource allocation—leading to boom-bust cycles. This “scam of modernity,” as Ammous calls it, not only stifles innovation (contrasting the gold era’s inventions like electricity with modern stagnation) but also fuels conflict by enabling unchecked government spending on wars and tyranny. Sound money, conversely, lowers time preference, promoting saving, capital accumulation, and peaceful cooperation, even influencing cultural outputs like art.


Bitcoin as the Ultimate Sound Money: A Monetary Lifeboat


The book’s second half champions Bitcoin, introduced in 2008 by the pseudonymous Satoshi Nakamoto as a “peer-to-peer electronic cash” system. Powered by blockchain technology—combining distributed networks, hashing, digital signatures, and proof-of-work mining—Bitcoin achieves perfect salability: divisible to eight decimal places, instantly transferable globally without intermediaries, and capped at 21 million units for absolute scarcity. Unlike gold, its digital nature prevents confiscation or destruction, offering individual sovereignty and counterparty-free international settlement. Ammous highlights Bitcoin’s four key strengths: as an unmatched store of value (with an ever-increasing stock-to-flow ratio approaching infinity), a tool for personal financial independence, a neutral global settlement layer, and a potential unit of account if volatility subsides with adoption. While acknowledging challenges like price swings and scalability (which may require layered solutions or even Bitcoin-backed currencies), Ammous sees it as immune to the manipulations plaguing fiat, potentially restoring a new gold-standard-like era of stability.


In conclusion, The Bitcoin Standard warns that fiat money’s flaws—debasement, centralization, and incentives for short-termism—threaten civilization’s progress, but Bitcoin offers a “monetary lifeboat” for escaping this cycle. By decentralizing control and enforcing scarcity through code, it could lower time preferences, boost productivity, and promote global peace, making it not just a cryptocurrency, but the foundation for sound money in the digital age. The book blends economics, history, and philosophy to make a compelling, if Bitcoin-centric, case for monetary reform.
