Episode notes
Free Market Naturally Trends Toward Deflation
- The natural state of a true free market is productivity-driven deflation, not inflation.
- Bitcoin is positioned as the first monetary protocol that can enable that deflationary free market.
Tech Produces Opposite Outcomes Depending On Money
- AI and robotics accelerate the free-market force toward faster depletion of costs and greater abundance.
- Inside fiat systems, the same technologies produce faster centralization, scarcity, and coercion.
Money Printing, Not Scarcity, Raises Prices
- Technological deflation often got masked by money printing, which redirected gains into other assets like housing.
- Money creation, not real scarcity, explains rising prices in sectors such as housing and healthcare.
