Guy’s Take #45 – A Mental Framework for Scaling
No matter how often we cover these ideas, it still seems astonishingly common for new people to fall into the same old fallacies and the same misguided thinking. In this episode I try to cover all the major problems with the “raise the blocksize” mentality, and why its thinking incorrectly about what the system even provides, and most importantly how it provides it.

What I Really Think About Bitcoin
“I believe Bitcoin is one hell of an invention. To have invented a new type of money via a system that is programmed into a computer and that has worked for around 10 years and is rapidly gaining popularity as both a type of money and a storehold of wealth is an amazing accomplishment.” – Ray Dalio

The Fiat Standard – Chapter 1
“For the reader who has become familiar with the operation of bitcoin, a good way to understand the operation of fiat is by drawing analogy to the operation of bitcoin using concepts like mining, nodes, balances, and proof of work. My aim is to explain the operation and engineering structure of the fiat monetary system and how it operates, in reality, away from the naive romanticism of governments and banks who have benefited from this system for a century.” – Saifedean Ammous

Guy’s Take #37 – Dear James Woods, Sincerely Guy Swann
“All you can do with Bitcoin once you buy it is sell it, but you need somebody else to buy it from you.” – Peter Schiff
James Woods shared a tweet with what is, in the end, a generally rational skepticism and common initial impression of Bitcoin. From an article at Fox Business, that based its argument on a few quotes from the king and queen of Bitcoin trolls, Peter Schiff and Nouriel Roubini. “You can’t do anything with it but sell it,” they claim, “its a huge scam and pump and dump” they added. As a Bitcoiner I would obviously argue this is completely false, but its not easy at first to see why, and it takes a huge amount of history, and close scrutiny to see the bigger picture.
