Reality is not arbitrary; form matters; there are higher truths than convenience, and deeper callings than consumption... The world has structure and our participation in it can either reflect or distort that structure. ππ
Posting this here for no other reason than to revive the invite for @Gigi to spend some scarce time and finite energy telling the tale of how he discovered Bitcoin. I hope he sees this, and if so; Gigi, please consider πΆπ
βThe loss of value is a loss of reality.β β Abraham Maslow. So, when value becomes arbitrary, when it is manipulated rather than discovered, our orientation to the real begins to collapse. Fiat severs the link between value and reality. Bitcoin restores this link. πΆπ

Cannot bear very much reality.
Time past and time future
What might have been and what has been
Point to one end, which is always present...
At the still point of the turning world. Neither flesh nor fleshless;
Neither from nor towards; at the still point, there the dance is...
Before the beginning and after the end.
And all is always now...
- T.S. Eliot, 'Burnt Norton' (1935).
