What if there was a single, fundamental flaw in Keynesian economic theory that could shed light on the major imbalances and debts that have resulted from our monetary system? Does “spending” and consumption of resources truly make us wealthier? Ben Kaufman lays out the argument for how “Time” is the missing piece in the failed Keynesian puzzle.

Don’t tell Rusty Russell or Joe Netti that, because they’ll just build their own network and do it. Another major milestone in Lightning development, the release of the Million Channels Project!
Today we are reading & discussing, from the Blockstream blog, “Letting a Million Channels Bloom.”
Check out the official post for the network data, charts and optimization benchmarks. Follow the blog and developers involved to stay up on the incredible work they are doing to bring Lightning to the world.

Don’t forget to follow the blog and Twitter handles to stay up on what the Lightning Labs team is building! Development is happening at a lightning fast pace and the team is straight fire!
Merchants are scammers, Keynesians are scammers, altcoins are scammers, Bitcoin “investments” are scammers, scammers are scammers, and even Bitcoin hoarders are scammers. Everyone’s a scammer.
A message from the future… from 2013. Just one of those memes that made its place in Bitcoin’s cultural history, we read the infamous Reddit post that laid out the bleak, Bitcoin-only future that lies ahead of us. Can we stop it, before its too late?
