Past few months we at @apesociety have been working on Volt, a p2p lending protocol with focus on fast access to liquidity for your tokens and simple and intuitive UI/UX a la @base. We will be sharing more info in the upcoming days, what it is, how it works and showcase its many features. Very soon we will have our testing phase - if you are one of the leaders in the space we would love you to test it out and us give feedback! DMs are always open /volt https://x.com/lendonvolt

your regular reminder that markets and inflation were much more volatile under the gold standard than under the Fed, which is why there were frequent recessions, banking panics, and other financial crises under the gold standard. the future of money is something better than both, because they both are shitty for different reasons.

Robert Kiyosaki: The biggest market crash in the history of the world is coming Robert Kiyosaki, the author of the famous book "Rich Dad, Poor Dad", has warned that we will soon witness the biggest market crash in history. He believes that this financial crisis is an opportunity to become richer for people who are already prepared for it. Kiyosaki has strongly criticized the policies of the US Vice President, Treasury Secretary, and Federal Reserve Chairman, and as a way to protect assets from these misguided policies, investing in gold, silver, and digital currencies such as Bitcoin (BTC) and Ethereum. (ETH) is recommended. He believes that after a major market crash, it will be a good time to buy these assets, and predicts that Bitcoin will reach $170,000 by early 2025, although it will experience a sharp decline before then.

Americans ought to be clear that national debt only comes from one thing: anointing private bankers to print public money as an I-O-U. Without enshrining that religious tithe into law, public debt is as real as the Tooth Fairy or Santa Claus.

An interesting take. This assumes: 1. the money collected is spent appropriately. I don't believe this is happening ($7.5 billion for 8 EV charging stations? Billions of USD lost in "accounting errors?" Loads of other examples). 2. the rich and corporations continue to produce. There are a lot of charts showing that higher taxes incentivizes corporations to decrease production rather than pay high taxes (=low GDP; recession). Then again, maybe this would decentralize industries and allow several moderate-income small businesses to provide demand rather than conglomerates? IDK. 3. the rich and corporations don't find ways to pass their increased costs onto the consumer. Historically they've been very good at this. I like the idea that people/governments would truly function in the best interest of everyone, but as a whole we're all still looking out for ourselves at the expense of others. Right now I'm not optimistic that higher taxes will translate into what you're hoping for.

We attributing this to AI takeover? Me: "AI, write me a code in python that does x." AI: "sure, no problem" and then busts out the code. I'm not a programmer or software engineer, but I've heard this is happening and will only get better.

I agree that velocity of crypto (day-to-day use crypto products) is essential to its value. Smart contracts, programmability, real-world use, DePIN, etc will be huge drivers (not an all-inclusive list). I think governments (and big corporations) that accumulate/hoard/hodl crypto (BTC, others) does add value if only by showing confidence, bringing more eyes, and reducing available supply (also not an all-inclusive list). By buying BTC, the government is essentially defining it as a valuable asset. Either way I'm bullish on BTC, smart-contract crypto platforms, and crypto as a whole.

people and even businesses can fool people into thinking they create value from nothing, but governments ultimately cannot. they are too big. bitcoin at the governmental level does not add value, does not increase tangible commodity production, and does not increase energy generation for productive use. humans are physical beings and real value ultimately lies in the physical world, where we must be sustained. buying bitcoin would only increase the transfer of wealth. smart-contract blockchains on the other hand have the potential of adding value through their programmability by providing efficiency to real-world, value-adding, physical productivity.
