Read_696 – Currencies Today are “IOU Nothings” [John Exter]

“Today no money in the world fully performs all three services. National currencies are being used as means-of-payment and standard-of-value money, b u t none in this inflationary age is an assured store-of-value money. In fact, a foremost concern to voters and politicians everywhere is that so many currencies are so rapidly losing their value…

Basics_01 – Bitcoin… What is it?

Sure, everyone tells me that bitcoin is a new technology. That it’s magic money for the internet and tokens you can buy and stick in an app that will probably be worth more later. But seriously… what the hell does all of that mean? I get that Bitcoin is a thing, but ‘What is it?’…

Read_695 – Central Banks are Inflation Creators, Not Inflation Fighters [Josh Hendrikson]

“All of this is important because there has been a resurrection of Burns-type positions in the current debate about the cause of higher inflation rates. Senator Elizabeth Warren blames the rising inflation on greedy corporations raising their prices. Others have blamed rising prices on the greater prevalence of monopolies. Antitrust is apparently an anti-inflation tool. Make…

Read_694 – Locked Out of My Digital Life [edent]

“Last night, lightning struck our house and burned it down. I escaped wearing only my nightclothes. In an instant, everything was vaporised. Laptop? Cinders. Phone? Ashes. Home server?

Read_693 – Lightning & The Airport Analogy [Danny Scott]

“But as with all new technology, it can be incredibly hard to explain what’s actually happening, without getting too complex. This got me thinking about Bitcoin education and how to ELI5 (Explain Like I’m 5) with Bitcoin Lightning, enter… Bitcoin Lightning: The Airport Analogy” – Danny Scott

Today we hit a short piece but a really great analogy in order to make sense of the lightning network. Since I’ve recently had a few people ask me about this and a fellow audionaut made a great suggestion for a short article, I thought this would be good to hit especially in the spirit of trying to get back to covering some of the fundamentals of Bitcoin and how it and many of the tools around it work, in simple, digestible explanations. And so we paint an easy picture of Lightning, with the Airport Analogy.
