"A distant digital descendent of zero, the invention of Bitcoin represents the discovery of absolute scarcity for money: an idea as equally unstoppable."  - Robert Breedlove A new piece by Breedlove exploring the discovery and impact of the concept of "zero," both as an abstraction of the nature of the universe, & a numerical tool for better defining and making sense of the world. And how the discovery of absolute scarcity in a monetary system, Bitcoin, will change our current view of the world. Not to be missed.

"One of the biggest lies in recent times is that inflation is good and necessary for a healthy economy." - Mcfloogle It was once understood that money was owned by the individual. Merely an extension of the value created in the past, the soundness of money could not be disconnected from the very right to life and property itself. A short but excellent blog post on this nature, and the consequences when it is lost to our society.   Check out mcfloogle.com to check out the other great blog posts as well as the Rollo & Slappy podcast! https://www.mcfloogle.com/2020/03/12/bitcoin-fulfills-the-promise-that-money-is-owned-by-everyone/ Support our awesome sponsor who makes this show possible!

"I didn’t believe it when I first heard people saying that most crypto projects will fail. Boy was I wrong." - @Vanalli Take it from someone who has seen "Crypto" from the inside, searching for something of value, and coming up short. An excellent write up of an honest, unapologetic look at the sea of crypto crap, utility tokens, and pointless blockchain projects.  A clear demonstration of the "Everyone's a Scammer" rule in the Bitcoin space, Vanalli tells us what it was like working in Crypto for 2 years, and why he had to finally take the exit.

"Make no mistake: the EARN IT Act is a vehicle to undermine end-to-end encryption." - Elliot Harmon A very important episode on a topic that people need to be aware of. There is a bill in Congress, one of the continuous attempts for the past 25 or so years, that will create enormous collateral damage to our freedom of speech, and privacy online. Not to mention putting the many abuses of surveillances capitalism on steroids. An excellent article from the EFF breaks it all down.
