It doesn't matter because we are coming at this from complete opposite ends. If you believe the gold standard was bad, since you said "a gold standard unnecessarily handicaps an economy", then you must want the government to have full control over printing as much money as needed. This to me...

Wow. I find it shocking that you are advocating for theft by the authorities of your hard earned money. You literally are saying you want the government to be bigger and stronger so that they have more and total control over you. By not wanting something such as a gold standard, you are...

I completely agree, but this will also be reason for fireworks when they have to start backpedaling.

The FED is expect to end bond buying in March. This of course doesn't mean the government will stop giving out money, but the financial side should feel this. And then of course they said at their last meeting that they are penciling in 3 rates hikes for 2022. So we probably don't have to...

Your entire explanation is I think what the politicians hope is the way that it will continue to work, but I'm not so sure. Do you not think that the change from stable to unstable can happen very quickly? And once you lose that stability, how do you get it back? When you read stuff like...

I honestly can't blame them. You can't run a country on sound money. They also won't be able to exploit it either of course, but it will be a painful transition.

And this is why I don't think it will ever happen. Too many people waiting for cheap prices. When BTC was at 30k in the summer, I was hesitant because I thought it could reach 20k which was the previous top. But clearly it never did. The triple bottom at 30k should have been a clue, but...

Mathematically, this can of course work if you catch a coin that does 10,000% or more. It will easily make up for dozens of losers.

Yup, exactly what I'm thinking. But at the same time, I think if we consider that we are in the late stages of this cycle, being in the strongest coins is the best course of action. Invest Answers has a target of $800. He figures this out based on his reasoning that SOL can capture 20% of the...

Gosh, I really don't think there are any left. For the market to 10x lets say, that bring it over 10T, which is getting pretty big. And if there is a coin out there that has yes to moon, it will have to somehow unseat one of the big players now. So I figure for it to 100x, it would mean that...

It is unfortunate to think that if a person missed the entire BTC run, they could have still done just as well if they got in only 11 months ago since this is when so much of the new stuff did 100x easily. I remember watching some SOL videos a couple of months back, and you know, I wrote off...

The guy has an excellent website. Its all based on data the government puts out and his charts are always quite telling.

Ouch... Ouch again. Just because a bunch of people got some free money that they quickly went out and spent does not mean they are better for long term. Ok, reading this all is getting painful. This part sounds good at least. Honestly, we are just too far apart on how we view all this so...

You said government spending puts money into the economy. This you of course meant as a good thing. So my argument was that if its such a good thing, why don't they put even more into the economy than they already are? This all gets back to what @longshort is saying. The government is...

Not at all. I truly meant that if you believe that government spending actually benefits the population without any drawbacks, then more is of course even better. Clearly there is a limit to this, and so the question has to be where does this limit come from? This is exactly right. Everyone...

While its true that the government can pass a 3 trillion dollar infrastructure bill, and that money will in fact be put in someone's pocket, if you follow the entire arc of what this spending does, you would see how short sighted it is. If what you're saying is true, and in the spirit of the...

Couldn't have been said it any better. It amazes me how someone can argue with any of this. What you have here is practically a mathematical equation. If someone tries to argue with what you're saying, they will be trying to show how 2+2 doesn't equal 4.

You don't think that the government is high on the power because of exactly this? Since when do you think the government actually took seriously any of their responsibilities? About the only thing they might be scared of is a mass revolution, as can be seen by the storming of the capital, so...

I didn't believe in crypto for the longest time either. Sure, we can all see that its been the best investment since 2013, but the magic behind crypto goes much deeper. What chance does the world really have against actions of the central banks and all sides of the government? For those...

I noticed it as well, and then I read something about these just being AI bots. You can tell because its one of those posts where it sounds like a bad translation that isn't exactly on topic. It perhaps some experiment where they are teaching the Bot to practice and learn, and it does so the...
