On a short enough time horizon, all investment success is indiscernible from luck

If you are not building you are dying

To fund an overextended empire, Roman emperors debased their coins by diluting the precious metal content. This week, Congress will vote to eliminate the PENNY, which was already mostly zinc since 1982. The same bill will allow the U.S. Mint to make NICKELS with cheaper metal.

This is actually not how it works. Only congress declares war.

John Adams and Thomas Jefferson, our 2nd and 3rd presidents, both served on the committee of five to draft the Declaration of Independence, signed 250 years ago. Adams persuaded Jefferson to write the first draft. Both died on July 4, 1826, exactly 50 years after the signing. I’ve always marveled at the coincidence. The two were bitter political rivals, and finally reconciled friends through a remarkable exchange of letters. Adams final words were, “Thomas Jefferson survives,” unaware that Jefferson had died hours earlier, also on the 4th. In another perhaps unparalleled coincidence, James Monroe, the 5th U.S. president, died exactly five years later on July 4, 1831, our nation’s 55th anniversary. Monroe was only 18 in 1776 so was not a signer of the Declaration but served in the Continental Army and later in the Continental Congress. Happy 250th Birthday, America! 🇺🇸

The merit of the wealth tax is that it’s destroying our future prosperity. Literally destroying the means of production. You are taxing capital not wealth. A farm that is worth a billion dollars doesn’t have a billion dollars in cash in the bank. It’s not hoarding a billion dollars worth of grain. The valuation is the best estimate total extra food the farm grows in the future. If you tax the farmer 5% on the value of the farm, the farmer has to sell 5% of the ownership of the farm. The shares that represent the farm. Now the farm can’t raise as much money to expand, to buy tractors, to grow more food. The valuation of the farm drops. Which literally means there less food grown in the future. 🧠🪱🤦‍♂️

What phase of the cycle is this?

Securitize is now officially a public company, listed on the @NYSE under the ticker SECZ. Our focus is unchanged: building the regulated infrastructure for the next generation of capital markets. To everyone who helped us get here, thank you. Tokenize the World.

OpenUSD confirms that issuer-keeps-the-float economics for stablecoins are over.

how much longer will we let presidents unilaterally enter us into illegal, undeclared wars? Congress is completely ignoring one of its most important responsibilities, while focusing on all kinds of things they shouldn’t even have authority over at all.

Why would I pay more for less?

It’s great so smart that the India Point nuclear facility which provided 25% of the reliable, cheap, electricity to NYC was shut down a few years ago.

Productivity growth, not taxation, has been the most proven way to fix inequality and poverty.
