*Over time, the creator optimizes for retention: more hopium, less doubt. If they suddenly became fully objective, their audience would either leave or revolt. That's the prison*

thoughtful, nuanced real talk like this barely gets any engagement but it's what i'm here for. the hopium dealers are profiting from you with the "we are winning" nonsense, they have a huge sunk cost and have built their online persona around "Bitcoin is inevitable", they can't afford to be sincere. highly recommend reading this man's work. sovereign MoE has always been the goal.

i sometimes disagree a lot with you but i share your "think about it for yourself" mindset 100% the main narrative that i disagree with is that it's impossible to achieve the bootstrap of a fair monetary ledger. but most attempts have been either stupid, or deceptive rackets. and the game theory dynamics and historical playing out show that influencers especially have a key role in maintaining its inflation hedging.
