MONEY CLASS OF THE DAY: Money Illusion and Unit Bias, Bitcoiner style by @denlillaapan
Den's stated mission is to make us all less stupid when it comes to understanding money. Here he explains that fiat sucking as a store of value doesn't imply that it is failing as a medium of exchange.
yeeeehaaaa!
You have pretty good odds
Or terrible odds... People have to pick 1/3 of his articles and the votes may get split, and because I never learned how to read properly, I assume this is just a popularity contest.
...AND I'M POPULAR?!
no way I can repeat this for 2026 -.-
I actually assumed you'd lose... 😁
losing I can repeat, no probs
I assume it’s pristinely about the merits of each piece…but, yes, any hypothetical sycophants better organize their picks.
Really strong set of posts if I had to choose one, Q3 (Pleb Economist #8) stands out for clearly explaining why self custody matters at a system level that said, Den’s Q4 piece does important work correcting common money misconceptions. Hard to go wrong here great signal all year.
Yes, these are all good options, and there were many others that didn't make the cut.
LET'S GO SIMPLESTACKER OMG!
