In 1999, the light bulb went off in my head about how Fractional Reserve Banking / Federal Reserve works....thus I became a goldbug and started slowing stacking gold/silver

My point on that, is I'm amazed at just the cultural shift thats happen in the last 10 years. From say 1999 to 2010 people would simply deny that "the gov can just print money". Further, it was generally denied that money printing was directly related to inflation....(I'm talking about regular joes on internet, not among financially savvy).

Now, everyone implicitly accepts those 2 points. That is a hugely bullish cultural shift in favor of bitcoin.
