Ok @denlillaapan and all stackers, i think you're gonna like this one...
So we know Den reports on the FT, WSJ etc and that's his niche now i feel, but i stumbled across this lil gem 💎
The Times of London, business section no less is actually presenting a serious take about Bitcoin, via their YouTube channel

'Can we trust Bitcoin more than any other currency'

It starts with two hosts from the Times, a lady who is fiat mindset 1000, almost immediately she started dropping ponzi bombs 💣 referencing the crapto queen, FTX SBF
And then the co host guy freely admits to being a sceptic previously but has since become much more interested in trying to understand it, we'll forgive him because his heart is in the right place but this clip is, let's say, got lost in translation and add the pizza 🍕 reference, it's a bit like when you hear a bro trying to talk about the game and you know he doesn't know the game 😉
Bro makes reference to the Craig Wright case, the landfill guy lost hard drive 💾 and actually brings mostly truths to the table
So the point of the pod is to introduce their guest, Andrew Webley, who gives me instant Dwayne Dibley vibes (Red Dwarf fans) he runs a web design company in the UK which has become a TC, referencing the mighty Saylor as influence
Andrew explains mnav among other things and most importantly Den, he explains 'Where's the lamb sauce' hang on wrong quote 'Where's the yield come from' Bro actually gives his reason, at 28.30 if you're interested
So main reason is for this follow up post, it's interesting that a mainstream publication is running a balanced piece, without just constant ponzi vibes, i know Darth says fuck them and i understand that but you can't deny it's only moving in one direction and im not talking about the fiat price!
Bitcoiners forget how little the average person engages with all the research and side drama, so FTX and Crypto Queen do a lot of damage

Most Bitcoiners still have not read Michael Lewis book on SBF- instead they swallowed the fiat bankers/establishment FUD on what was a hit job on SBF and FTX.
reply
That book is probably still a bit too lenient, there was so much fuckery with the shell companies, money laundering, calling in the Enron guy. As I recall the commentary on the book at the time was that Lewis went easy on him.
reply
Did you read the book itself? I did and it gave a very different picture to the hysteria going around at the time of the take down . . . read the book and decide for yourself but all I am saying is most Bitcoiners bought the witch hunt narrative that was not the full story. Everyone was using front companies to gain banking access- unless you were Coinbase and thus working for the fiat establishment all along. Lewis does not paint SBF as a saint but as a complex and highly skilled operator somewhere on the Asperger's spectrum - working in a financial culture culture of extremely questionable principles to say the least- SBF was a product of a corrupt financial sector culture but was taken down because what he was doing did not align with the political Chokepoint2 agenda of shutting down crypto.

Whatever the average person does or does not engage in, I see that as a manifestation of Darwinism.
So yeah, if one wants to focus on FTX, Saylor, Crypto queen or whatever instead of understanding Blockchain, UTXO, signatures, HTLC or unlocking script...well, his loss, my gain.

Will Michael Saylor disappear in a tragic boating accident?
Will Bitcoin return to USD$110000 by the end of January 2016?
Or is the 4 Year Cycle just rolling around again?!
Ladies and Gentlemen you can now place your bets!
