I was skeptical that this ad was real so I looked it up. It really is true that in 1960 a burger, fries, and milkshake at McDonalds only cost around 50 cents. Which is about $5 in 2025. But if you wanted that same meal today you'd pay about $12.

70% of Americans can’t afford a median home. Why? Broken money forced people to use real estate as savings, making homes unaffordable. Houses aren’t savings accounts, they’re meant to be lived in. #Bitcoin demonetizes housing, drives prices down and puts families back in homes.

Much of the poverty alleviation program of Effective Altruism made more sense at the end of history when Europe was prosperous, American military might unquestioned, and only Western technology advancing. It was a kind of pluralistic washed technocratic revival of the

Antoine Poinsot Jevi so override the feature freeze. simple. there is no hard-deadline. bitcoin operates on a it's ready when it's ready basis because of the mission critical nature. it's just words (deprecation warning string) so has no conceivable code effect. it's a show of good faith.

The temptation to print money out of thin air: almost impossible to resist. And once surrendered to, it corrupts everything. That's why Bitcoin is impossible to replicate.
