Will a Freer Market with Bitcoin Lead to More Technology Advancement? - Daily Live 2.15.23 | E319
Full show notes with links and charts: https://bitcoinandmarkets.com/e319 Telegram https://t.me/bitcoinandmarkets Twitter https://twitter.com/AnselLindner FREE weekly newsletter https://tinyurl.com/2chhbnff In today's episode, I start off with a long introduction to competing progressive schools of thought. We are probably familiar with communist progressives on the left, but there is also a school on the right of technology progressives. The latter thinks there will be ever increasing levels of technology and it would be best if governments got out of the way. While I do believe capitalism is the way to go, this progressive vision of moving toward a technological utopia of AI, robots, and interstellar travel is very unlikely with more free markets. It is likely we will choose family and faith over progress of this nature, we'll move out of cities and become more self-sufficient instead of growing more fragile and dependent on ever centralizing systems Next is about altcoiners starting to see the light as the SEC swoops in and destroys the viability of all these scams. Lastly, we breifly cover retail sales in the US accelerating in January, but how this doesn't necessarily mean the Fed will clamp down harder. All they've done hasn't squashed the economy, so what makes people think them doing more will do that? What if they don't do much of anything in the real economy and they are only playing experts for the cameras. Enjoy.

Many people were wondering if Powell's tone was going to change since the week before's FOMC press conference, given the Jobs Report came out and showed major tightening of the jobs market. After I react to that interview, I read through a story about lending in the US is falling off a cliff. Tightening lending standards mixed with crashing demand for loans. Enjoy.

The Live show was quite a bit longer, so make sure you join us on YT, Twitter, or Telegram. The main topic is the Ordinal debate. This public conflict is blown way out of perportion, and reminds me a lot of the scaling conflict in 2016. I also cover some of the uncomfortable truths about bitcoin scaling and discuss who we might look at them in the future. Lastly, I quickly cover the China Spy Balloon story again. Not that big of a deal either, other than it shows globalization/international trust and cooperation is gone. Enjoy.
