It IS crazy. Our take on it: linkedin.com/feed/update/ur…

Six years ago, @valkenburgh, one of the sharpest minds in #crypto and a masterful communicator, delivered what many still consider the ultimate explanation of #Bitcoin. But the Cryptoverse has evolved dramatically since then. Does his brilliantly concise take on Bitcoin still hold up in 2025? Watch and decide: youtu.be/1nXgzN3JfRI?si…

I have a couple of questions for @pmarca and @joeroganhq (I'm sorry, maybe Joe and Mark have touched on all this in their conversation the other day, but I don't have either time or desire to listen to Mark Andreessen pumping his AI bags for three hours). So, here are my questions. How will capitalists retain and grow their wealth in a world where abundance and accessibility through AI define everything? If his vision comes true - a world where everything is cheap, from medical diagnoses to legal briefs, from tutoring to creative tools, how will the mechanisms of wealth accumulation adapt? In a society where everyone is empowered to create, and basic needs are met with minimal cost, what distinguishes social classes? Will gated communities dissolve, or will inequality find new ways to persist? Will this utopia finally address hunger, end wars, and outlaw exploitative practices like insider trading, stock buybacks, and speculative hoarding by the "elites"? This brings me to a larger question, grounded in Edward O. Wilson’s profound observation: “The real problem of humanity is the following: we have Paleolithic emotions, medieval institutions, and god-like technology.” If Wilson’s postulate is true - and I believe it is - how do we address the deepest challenge of all: our Paleolithic emotions? Even with advanced technology and reformed institutions, our evolutionary wiring remains rooted in tribalism, fear, and greed. How do we evolve emotionally and cognitively to align with a world of infinite possibility ruled by AI? Without addressing this, do we risk merely replicating old power structures with new tools? These are the questions that define the future - not just for capitalists but for humanity as a whole. So, boys, how do we fix that?

Alas, @saylor is no longer just a #Bitcoin maxie – he’s a radical libertarian fanatic. A man so consumed by his dangerous ideas that he’d rather watch the world burn than abandon his misguided quest. From claiming Bitcoin could offset $16 trillion in U.S. sovereign debt via @SenLummis' absurd Bitcoin Strategic Trust bill to declaring that “America must own cyberspace,” Saylor has completely lost the plot. His delusions are staggering. He dreams of Bitcoin becoming the backbone of global financial stability, but mark my words: when the big one hits – and yes, it will hit – the blame game reminiscent of the 2008 meltdown will begin. And when the future Bernie Medoff, Richard Fuld, and Ken Lay fall – that’s when Saylor’s investors find themselves a perfect target, and the U.S. government will have its next villain. Maybe another SBF. Maybe another Roger “Bitcoin Jesus” Ver, who, if I’m not mistaken, is still doing time for tax evasion despite no longer being a U.S. citizen. The bottom line? What $MSTR is doing – selling its own stock to raise fiat to buy more Bitcoin only to boost the stock price, sell more of it, and buy even more Bitcoin – isn’t bold innovation. It’s reckless self-destruction dressed up as genius. All this and more in Episode 134 of your beloved TRASTRA Newsreel – LIVE on YouTube NOW! youtube.com/watch?v=ND5nUP…

Love him or hate him, @JohnReedStark makes excellent points in his opening statement. "Time and time again, the promoters of #DigitalAssets claim to be champions of a digitally transformative technological revolution that is the future of finance and the future of money. Yet, in an oddly hypocritical twist, when the @SECGov comes knocking, they argue in court papers that selling digital assets is just like selling baseball cards, American Girl dolls or Beanie Babies." Brilliant. Hypocrisy is the scourge of #crypto. The sooner we admit to some hard truths and finally stop this "revolution" nonsense, the smoother things will go in the future for legitimate players.

The scale of delusion in this minute-long short is absolutely staggering. @gladstein incessantly and tirelessly pushes this #Bitcoin freedom" fetish ("Bitcoin is the ultimate path to "self-sovereignty") - but because it's false, everything he derives from it is also either false or dangerously misleading. Thoughts anyone?

Straight from the horse's mouth: #UkraineRussiaWar is not likely to end any time soon.🙄📷

Every time 'early adaptors' claim something like "from that point on, I read everything there was to read about #Bitcoin..." I want to say "right, but I'll bet you haven't read any of THIS crap, have you?" journals.plos.org/plosone/search…

The Brits love the synonym game when it comes to 'threat' level classification. It used to be 'highly likely,' now it's 'overwhelming probability.'🤣 youtube.com/watch?v=ZKc2js…

@MassDara Can it even be ended militarily? I mean, every once in a while, Israel or US will eliminate a nuclear scientist or shoot up a wedding if they feel funny about it. Isn't it fair to assume that from now on, regardless of what's on the negotiation table, 🇷🇺 will act in the same way?
