"Curiously, neither Vorhees nor Buterin are keen to mention an aspect of Ethereum that is metaphorically labeled as destructive physical violence enshrined in code, known as the “difficulty bomb,” which is designed to override the very free market forces Vorhees espouses. The difficulty bomb is code that incrementally increases the difficulty level of Ethereum’s proof-of-work mining in order to slowly reduce block production times, until the chain becomes unusable. It was released as a means to force Ethereum’s switch from proof of work to proof of stake." Join Guy Swann as he narrates Level39's outstanding recent piece in Bitcoin Magazine, titled "The Coercion of Ethereum's Difficulty Bomb". Level39 describes one of the main differences between Bitcoin and Ethereum, in that Ethereum users can be coerced into upgrading their software, meanwhile Bitcoin remains fully backwards compatible and is the only cryptocurrency that truly protects users' rights to their money.  Read the full article here: https://bitcoinmagazine.com/technical/ethereum-is-coercive-bitcoin-is-not --------------------------------------------- Bitcoin Magazine is back in print!

"In short, the U.S. was able to convince other nations to save in dollars instead of in gold by guaranteeing that the dollars could be redeemed for gold. But eventually, U.S. officials rug-pulled the world, refusing to redeem billions of dollars that had been spent into the hands of foreign governments under the promise that they were as good as gold through fixed rate redemption.This deceit allowed the U.S. government to finance an ever-expanding military-industrial complex and inefficient welfare state without having to make the traditional trade offs a country or empire would make if its deficit grew too large. Instead, since U.S. policymakers figured out a way to bake American debt into the global monetary base, it never had to pay off its debt." Join Guy Swann as he narrates Alex Gladstein's recent article for Bitcoin Magazine, titled "The End of Super Imperialism". Gladstein gives us an excellent historical recount of how the U.S. dollar became the global standard, and how the U.S. essentially "rug pulled" the entire world by abandoning the dollar's convertibility to gold.
