Is anyone else starting to become a bit excited?

What I find bizarre is his stuff about blaming fiat money for the alleged lamentable state of modern art, which he maintains is incomparable with the art created during the era of the gold standard.
Luckily, it seems I had gotten up to stick the kettle on for this bit!
I didn't pick up on the fiat food thing or Keynes (although I've heard criticism of Keynesian economics before and I think it's very much a conversation worth having. Remember - both that guy and Livera are fans of the Austrian school of economics). Caught the tail end of him muttering something negative about renewables - and I just thought, I've no idea what you're selling on that but I'm not buying it!He also has a thing about 'fiat food' and fossil fuel energy v renewables, and has a go at Keynes personally.
It's not so niche anymore so there will be all sorts of views you'll come across in crypto now. However, as with anything else - you won't agree with everything someone comes out with. Everyone has to try and make sense of it for themselves - and with that, the conclusions may differ.So it's hard to know if they have these extreme views/serious chips on shoulders/mental blocks - because they're BTC advocates, or if they are BTC advocates because they have these extreme views.#
Today, I went through a podcast that drives me up the wall (Peter bloody McCormack). I'd avoided it for weeks. He talks all over his podcast about nonsensical shíte - time that should be left to knowledgeable guests. But he still has knowledgable guests on from time to time - so I had to suffer through Peter's shíte-talk.
The point is - pick out what works in terms of informing yourself and make your own mind up from there.
Yeah, I learned of PlanB's utterance on that a few months back - I thought maybe his ego or paranoia are getting the better of him...not sure which.As to where it's all going, that's what I'm trying to figure out. It's not teased out properly in these discussions beyond what the advantages of BTC are. PlanB has a plan to 'go dark' if BTC gains sufficient traction, but it's as if these guys are so caught up in their belief in BTC that they don't consider the wider societal implications.0 -

I am starting to become a bit excited about my BTC.
Bought in May and it's the best I've felt about it yet tbh. The things that were nagging me at various stages - looking like it was correlated with the stock market, it's constant rise and then quick sell off and defi/alt-coins going supersonic on a whim - all seem to have weakened atm, and not to tempt fate, but I'm all in with the 'we're going on a bull run' crowd. The mess of the US elections just strenghtening it for me tbh, the old ways are not looking good atm.
Bring it fecking on
