I think (at least initially) what we’re going to see are the big finance companies that already operate money market mutual funds essentially do the same thing with stablecoins. Competition will likely push them to pay interest on these stablecoins (in terms of the stablecoin itself).

One implication you could draw from the paper is that if you issued your own money, it probably wouldn’t work unless you promised to buy it back for a fixed quantity of something of value or if you promised to limit the quantity of the money. But promises require trust and people probably wouldn’t just trust the issuer of money to do the right thing and not print too much. But there’s this thing called Bitcoin and it solves that problem. The supply of bitcoin is fixed and no one has an incentive to change that. So it’s like a new solution to this problem.

Lewis, The Abolition of Man npub18wgtxzhx75qd2aq3gn35mcv5m8zx7z6xdsf6a95asltys70deekqqjr2wn rebeleconprof “It was impossible for the Western movement to understand Communism as merely a new version of that eternal reactionism against which it had been fighting for centuries. It had to admit that the Western project which had provided in its way against all earlier forms of evil could not provide against the new form in speech or in deed. For some time it seemed sufficient to say that while the Western movement agrees with Communism regarding the goal—the universal prosperous society of free and equal men and women—it disagrees with it regarding the means: for Communism, the end, the common good of the whole human race, being the most sacred thing, justifies any means; whatever contributes to the achievement of the most sacred end partakes of its sacredness and is therefore itself sacred, whatever hinders the achievement of that end is devilish. The murder of Lumumba was described by a Communist as a reprehensible murder by which he implied that there can be irreprehensible murders, like the murder of Nagy. It came to be seen then that there is not only a difference of degree but of kind between the Western movement and Communism, and this difference was seen to concern morality, the choice of means. In other words, it became clearer than it had been for some time that no bloody or unbloody change of society can eradicate the evil in man: as long as there will be men, there will be malice, envy and hatred, and hence there cannot be a society which does not have to employ coercive restraint. For the same reason it could no longer be denied that Communism will remain, as long as it lasts in fact and not merely in name, the iron rule of a tyrant which is mitigated or aggravated by his fear of palace revolutions. The only restraint in which the West can put some confidence is the tyrant's fear of the West's immense military power.” — Leo Strauss, The City and Man npub18wgtxzhx75qd2aq3gn35mcv5m8zx7z6xdsf6a95asltys70deekqqjr2wn rebeleconprof “The fear of losing wealth arouses the same emotions in men as the desire to gain it, since men do not feel secure in what they already have except by acquiring still more. Moreover, these new acquisitions are themselves means of strength and power for abuse; and, worse still, the arrogant behavior and contempt of the nobles and the rich arouses not only the desire for wealth and position among those who have none, but also the hunger to avenge themselves by stripping the wealthy of those riches and honors which they see them employ so badly.” — Machiavelli, Discourses on Livy npub18wgtxzhx75qd2aq3gn35mcv5m8zx7z6xdsf6a95asltys70deekqqjr2wn rebeleconprof https://nostr.build/i/11a125a5ece1c864e7fdccf7dc6dcf016f8c14badb85c2b0add0abc6bf4966f2.jpg npub18wgtxzhx75qd2aq3gn35mcv5m8zx7z6xdsf6a95asltys70deekqqjr2wn rebeleconprof You have to have a blue check for the site to work.

But the taller the tower, the less stable the tower becomes and the more likely a small shock can bring the whole tower crashing down. npub18wgtxzhx75qd2aq3gn35mcv5m8zx7z6xdsf6a95asltys70deekqqjr2wn rebeleconprof It’s become increasingly evident to people that we're on an unsustainable path. The Fed continues to expand the scope of its operations. A new problem? Here's a new facility to deal with that. This makes the operations more and more complex, which makes the institution and the financial system more fragile. The Fed's balance sheet is going to continue to get bigger and that will lead to more politicization. And the balance sheet is going to get riskier as these facilities simply transfer the risk from the financial system to the Fed. npub18wgtxzhx75qd2aq3gn35mcv5m8zx7z6xdsf6a95asltys70deekqqjr2wn rebeleconprof Schrödinger's bond prices npub18wgtxzhx75qd2aq3gn35mcv5m8zx7z6xdsf6a95asltys70deekqqjr2wn rebeleconprof Gee, I wonder what we’ll have to talk about in Nashville this week. https://www.meetup.com/bitcoinpark/events/289621828/ npub18wgtxzhx75qd2aq3gn35mcv5m8zx7z6xdsf6a95asltys70deekqqjr2wn rebeleconprof Just to review, this is the same guy who says he hasn’t heard of a single valid use case for bitcoin. https://twitter.com/paulkrugman/status/1633472068355346437 npub18wgtxzhx75qd2aq3gn35mcv5m8zx7z6xdsf6a95asltys70deekqqjr2wn rebeleconprof One of the most reliable red flags is when crypto people don’t understand bitcoin.

Of course, he wrote it so early that prices of each of these assets is much higher than they were then. This gives him validation, but it’s false validation. Like the guy who successfully predicted the stock market crash of 1929 by applying the law of gravity to stock prices, this won’t end well for him. https://twitter.com/cburniske/status/1627194609054146560 npub18wgtxzhx75qd2aq3gn35mcv5m8zx7z6xdsf6a95asltys70deekqqjr2wn rebeleconprof They will blame inflation on everything except the growth in the money supply. https://finance.yahoo.com/news/inflation-remain-sticky-decade-gen-231256105.html npub18wgtxzhx75qd2aq3gn35mcv5m8zx7z6xdsf6a95asltys70deekqqjr2wn rebeleconprof Follow the signal. https://www.meetup.com/bitcoinpark/events/289621828/
