It is not normal how bolsheviks program from 100 years ago rhymes with current mainstream narratives as a whole and in details.
It does not work for me. It is rebranded donation model and it works probably even worse than with fiat.
Simple example, I've sold a pin and mistyped shipping as free for US while I ship from Europe. I asked for a tip in the letter but I haven't got anything.
And many other examples I just don't want to expand.
Just selling stuff which is relatively rare and gets into narrative directly is better. And some bitcoiners think that it is really worth doing, just spending sats periodically.
At some point I realized that it is common to refer to Weimar among bitcoiners but they are lacking somewhat factual side. Yes there is great book written by Fergusson but I quickly discovered some other sources, quantitative data and facts. It is well-documented but lacks the show moment. Also it led to really bad societal outcomes. They are scary and exciting simultaneously. Eventually I've started collecting some stuff and thinking about its visual representation. I dug so deep I did even start discovering some German lore that looks very funny in "crypto" context (Money Shitter for example). This is the story.
But of course there are more stories about hyperinflations: read about Zimbabwe or Russia, French revolution, too. All of them have something in common and many things that are different. However it looks like Weimar's have more anecdotes, like this
The single word “no” she told her son, cost 2,446,000 marks. (Guttman)
Sometimes I simply do like create something with old things.
