Episode notes
Bitcoin As The Base Layer
- Bitcoin functions as a base layer that enables a global pre-market of deflationary prices driven by technology.
- Preston will expand the podcast to cover AI, robotics, nuclear, and how they intersect with Bitcoin and decentralization.
Free Market’s Natural Deflation
- The natural state of a free market is deflation as prices fall toward marginal cost with accelerating technology.
- Measuring prices in Bitcoin reveals falling prices that fiat accounting masks and centralization resists.
Avoid Seeking Government Bailouts
- Don't rely on government to save you from automation; printing money worsens the problem and centralizes control.
- Instead, recognize how monetary policy shapes incentives and consider actions that support decentralized alternatives.
