CryptoQuikRead_255 – Bitcoin An Accounting Revolution [Permabull Niño]

“Those who argue “high fees will kill adoption” fail to understand the intensity of assurances Bitcoin offers, and the ease at which it does this. Put lightly — Bitcoin is insanely cheap compared to alternative options for obtaining high degrees of assurance. Bitcoin is a vehicle built for moon missions, but we are giving it similar treatment to a scooter.” @imacallyoujawdy
Don’t miss an excellent piece exploring the revolution of money and accounting assurances represented in the Bitcoin system. Plus my own commentary on why gold acted as a check to the accounting limitations of the past & why Bitcoin has changed the entire game all over again. From @imacallyoujawdy, we read “Bitcoin: An Accounting Revolution.”

CryptoQuikRead_254 – Bitcoin & Software Reliability [beautyon_]

” ‘Break stuff’ in that context means ‘Kill People.’ The software simply must work every time, no compromise, no guesswork, no exceptions. There are no ‘do overs’ or roll-backs.”
The “To the Moon!” Bitcoin meme is far more relevant than many realize. Bitcoin is mission critical software. It requires a vastly different engineering philosophy and design. With a short, but fun piece by @Beautyon_, we break down the conceptual reasons why the development mentality of Bitcoin should be mirror the mentality of those designing software that carries men & woman to the moon.
Check out, and drop some applause on the original at the link below. Don’t forget if you like this work that you can send a donation ot the posted address, along with exploring the many other articles from @beautyon_:

Guystake_016 – Drama, Drama, Toxic Drama

Curious about all the #BitcoinTwitter buzz recently? I went digging to find the associated twitter threads & comments to read, and then discuss my own take on all the drama.
Too long; Didn’t Listen –
• Don’t be a jerk.
• We aren’t responsible for other people’s feelings.
• If you have to choose between making someone uncomfortable & telling them what you believe to be true, speak the truth.
• Open discourse, no matter how “toxic,” is preferable to back room political fighting.
• These are the consequences of freedom of speech.
The threads in question, plus one I only found after recording the episode (unfortunately) by @TheBlueMatt that’s related to the discussion.

CryptoQuikRead_251 – Use of Knowledge in Society [Part 2 – F. A. Hayek]

The brilliance of the price system is in coordinating the values, deeply limited knowledge and scarce resources precisely to their highest value need without having to understand or be aware of every single change in supply, alternatives, and uses of those resources among the economic participants. It is specifically because we only receive the most important piece of information, its new value in relation to other things (the price), that we can so quickly align ourselves with the new state of the world. Don’t miss the conclusion of Hayek’s work, “The Use of Knowledge in Society.”

CryptoQuikRead_250 – Use of Knowledge in Society [Part 1 – F. A. Hayek]

Is the idea of a central decision maker for the economy just a problem of gathering all the right information and having the most intelligent in control? Or is there a far more fundamental problem with the entire notion?
Continuing our #Bitcoin economics week, today we dive into a piece on a concept we haven’t yet covered. What is the true nature of the knowledge involved in economic activity, and how do we utilize that knowledge to solve the problem of economic organization? A brilliant work by F.A. Hayek and made available by the amazing team over at FEE.org, we cover and expand on Hayek’s “Use of Knowledge in Society.”
