Content warning: bitcoin conference report

Despite much opinion to the contrary, the government money we use is crappy.
I'm at bitfest in Manchester to find out if Bitcoin could be a better money.
It could hardly be worse.
The mood is still good, people are joking about recent devaluation rather than crying. Those who aren't all in are trying to buy more at the discount.
After an introduction by Mad Bitcoins, Joe Bryan explains the problem with government money.
He imagines an island on which two types of money are tried, with a dividing wall between them.
When economic problems hit, government can just print more money on the fiat side. Everyone now using money which is worth less. Distorting prices, inflating asset prices, making the rich (who hold assets) richer and the poor (who have to pay inflated prices) poorer. Driving wealth inequality.
On the hard money side, government must tax properly. Take in more from the rich rather than inflating to take it from the poor. Reducing wealth inequality.
On the government money side, the wealthy monitize houses, stocks, resources. Saving in money is impossible, its inflated away. So they save in assets and hording resources. Capital is misallocated. The youth can't afford houses. Poverty traps are caused. The only way out is printing more for benefits. Making it all worse. More economic crises, more printing. More government debt.
Eventually, the wall is broken. Government money people can save in the hard money instead. It reduces the value of government money further. More printing. More inflation.
Eventually, war. Funded by printed money.
The dollar is the best of a bad bunch all other government money is falling in value even faster.
I wonder, is bitcoin really this better money though? It's limited, hard, and can't be printed without energy investment.
I'm still unsure that fixing money fixes the world.

Note: "crypto" is mostly more like government money than bitcoin. It can be printed indefinitely by it's makers, does not cost it's makers to print. Crypto is usually just a scam people to get more bitcoin. Bitcoin is not crypto.

It is horrific, This "peace plan" means that we are fighting for nothing, giving our lives for nothing.
“I have no words, because this is a proposal to capitulate to an enemy that is destroying civilians, that is killing people,”

To Many Ukrainians, U.S. Peace Plan Looks Like ‘Capitulation’
While the White House has cautioned that the proposal is still in “flux,” its contours reflect maximalist demands made by Russia throughout the war that Ukraine has consistently rejected.

This article just cited the Finnish Michaux study. There are others. The whole "industrial renewable energy capture systems" wager has inadequate foundations, which is why the only way is to use much less energy. Hence #degrowth See my article and linked report for the UK case.
Is There Enough Metal to Replace Oil? - CounterPunch.org

Is There Enough Metal to Replace Oil?
A key issue for the accomplishment of renewables is power storage because of the impact of wind and solar intermittency, both of which are highly intermittent. Most studies assume gas will be the buffer for intermittency. Other than using fossil fuel such as gas as a buffer, an adequate power storage system to handle intermittency will require 30 times more material than what electric vehicles require with current plans, meaning the scope is much larger than the current paradigm allows.

Ik heb een nieuwe manier om energie te besparen, al is het maar een beetje. 🙂 Mijn grote koffiemolen is kapot en kan niet gerepareerd, dus ik heb een nieuwe. Die is handbediend, geen piepjes, geen ledlampjes, geen wifi en geen app, maar verder uiterst futuristisch. Ik heb er nog niet mee gemalen, maar alles lijkt te kloppen, ik ben benieuwd, morgen de eerste vers handgemalen koffie op espresso fijnheid.
Op de foto staan de oude en de nieuwe molen naast elkaar.
