Read_478 - Bullish on Bitcoiners [John Vallis]

"After all, Bitcoin is just a tool, and it’s only revolutionary in so far as its unique attributes generate novel possibilities for action — that is to say, new behaviors." - John Vallis Before continuing our ride through The Bitcoin Times, we have a fantastic piece from John Vallis as part of the End of Year 2020 series with Bitcoin Magazine. One of numerous excellent articles looking back on 2020 and what it brought to Bitcoin, and what Bitcoin brought to it. John Vallis gives us a perspective of the change that Bitcoin instills, after all its just a tool, what really makes a difference, and where the change truly lies, is in us. Don't miss a wonderful piece on the human element of Bitcoin's societal revolution.

Guy's Take #39 - Bitcoin is the Pin

We are in the midst of one of history's greatest financial bubbles, represented both in a global debt crisis, as well as a bloated, subsidized financial sector that is many times greater in size than it naturally should be. Rather than Bitcoin being the bubble that everyone claims it is, on the contrary, the financial system is a "greater fool" bubble, and Bitcoin is the pin.

Read_477 - Bitcoin is the Great Definancialization [Parker Lewis]

"The greatest trick that central banks ever pulled was convincing the world that individuals must perpetually take risk just to preserve value already created (and saved). It is insane, and the only practical solution is to find a better form of money which eliminates the negative asymmetry inherent to systemic currency debasement." - Parker Lewis Let the Gradually, Then Suddenly series never die! Installment #17 comes to us in the 2020 edition of The Bitcoin Times. Parker Lewis hits it out of the park again with a piece detailing the process by which our monetary system has led to a massive, bloated, and over-financialized economy, forcing people to fight just to keep the value they already earned. "Bitcoin is the Great Definancialization" https://medium.com/the-bitcoin-times/bitcoin-is-the-great-definancialization-65b4c27a8371 Don't forget to check out the graphics in the piece above and drop some massive applause, also explore the other brilliant pieces in the newest edition of The Bitcoin Times. https://sites.google.com/getamber.io/thebitcointimes/ A huge Thank You to the Bitcoin Audible Sponsors: Hexa Wallet - Mobile wallet, seedless, batching, custom fees, multiple accounts & more (guyswann.com/Hexa) BitBox - Minimal, user friendly, secure, Swiss made, open source, hardware wallet (guyswann.com/BitBox) LVL.co - The first Free, no-fee exchange & Bitcoin banking services! --- Send in a voice message: https://podcasters.spotify.com/pod/show/bitcoinaudible/message

Read_475 - The Sovereign Company Thesis [Christian Keroles]

“Today, bitcoin is still an alternative treasury asset, but as larger and more powerful organizations begin to use Bitcoin directly, they will begin to tear away from the overreach of governments. This in and of itself will challenge the dynamics of governance and the nature of nation states as we currently know them." - Ck_snarks We all know that Bitcoin creates sovereignty and protects the individual's right to own and use money without the permission of government. But everything it provides to the individual, it can provide to a company as well. With the BitMEX example giving us a taste of what could be, Christian Keroles takes us through a great, quick read on the sovereignty of business enterprise in a Bitcoin world, and how it fundamentally changes the dynamics of governance, and removes the power to shut down the capital of the world.
