bitcoin is replaceable. Any digital currency can replace it.
That's meaningless. Any sufficiently rare metal or rock could replace gold too. BTC has a market cap of over 2 trillion and is widely adopted. It is limited supply. It is a huge decentralized p2p network. Sure, you can replace it with some other crypto that can rival this.
Bitcoin is public ledger. It's not private. Every transaction is recorded
That's a pro, not a con because it prevents manipulation of the ledger (like banks and governments would do in their "private" ledgers). Transactions are still anonymous. All that is recorded is the wallet hash which is not necessarily tied to real ID.
No one actually uses bitcoins as an actual fucking currency. Retards just get bitcoins and sit on them.
It is used, even by whole governments like El Salvador. If you think Blackrock is retarded then yes, they buy BTC as an asset and use it as a storage of value and a hedge against inflation.
bitcoin transactions will infinitely become more and more cumbersome to process as the ledger grows.
It won't. Technology will alleviate this. Most BTC transactions will be in satoshis. Still more convenient than using gold coins and ingots like in the good ol pirate days.
bitcoin is stuck between $100K and $110K. Gold and silver are outperforming it this year.
Cherry picking a specific timeframe after BTC has climbed, dipped and recovered doesn't prove anything. It will probably pass 200k by the end of the year in the next bull run. Here's the actual stats: https://www.longtermtrends.net/bitcoin-vs-gold/
Comparing BTC to gold in terms of appreciation is laughable - in the past 10 years BTC grew 46k% or by 146% per year. Gold grew 212% or by 12% per year. But take any timeframe you want. Even the last year BTC grew 90% vs gold - 39%. Six months BTC is still on top of gold.
Gold has been around thousands of years and maintained value.
It's a fallacy to assume that it will continue in the future. Monarchies have been around for as much time as gold and yet they were replaced. Gold as currency is a technology of the past that can't fulfill the needs of a digital globalized world as currency. It couldn't do it even 100 years ago and this is why it got replaced by fiat in the first place.
Bitcoin has lasted about 10 years and will only last so long as a superior digital coin is not developed.
I imagine people said the same thing about the combustible engine. Everything can be replaced by a superior technology and gold has already been replaced by fiat. How long it will last is a speculation.
I'm saying all this as not to hate on gold but as a realist. I stack it myself and believe there is intrinsic value in its beauty, timelessness and symbolism.
All I know is that it's good to be financially independent and anyone who bought a few dirt cheap BTCs back in the day has enough money to never be bothered about it in their lifetime and can spend a little to pay for their expenses. You call them retards but any objective person, who's not envious would call them smart investors. Sadly I missed that train because I used to think like you but it's never too late because I'm pretty convinced BTC will play a huge role in the future (not as CBDC but as its alternative).
There is - BTC.
I recommend the book The Bitcoin Standard: The Decentralized Alternative to Central Banking
That won't resolve the main problem, which is centralization of currency. They will still hold most of the gold and be able to manipulate its value. Just like they did in the beginning of the XXc - there was a reason why Rotschild and the Milner group were in favor of the gold standard.
Exactly, the shape of the Earth is not a big deal to me. Of course NASA is fake and gay (Jack Parsons was). I care more about the talmudic NWO and the darwinian scam for example.
No, you were a dick to me because you thought I was here to deboonk OP's claim. Don't try to reframe it, come on.
You do understand that I was being sarcastic, right?
Obviously I did and I called you out. But go tell your mom you got me good.
Wow another dumbass.
I checked to see if the image was faked and yes it was. I wouldn't call that research. This doesn't mean the claim on the image is not true. Can you think bro?
Wtf are you on about? Can you read, dude? I don't care about any of this flerf shit - all I said is I got that reply when I prompted the model.
Again, are you fucking stupid or yes?
Oh, so you don't hold any beliefs? Like belief in your senses and in your reason?
ALL religions are man-made control mechanisms.
Is that assertion a belief or you know it as a brute fact somehow? Kinda like a dogma?
Had you any knowledge of philosophy (and epistemology in particular), you'd know believing is a prerequisite for knowledge (JTB theory of knowledge).
For example for me to know A is the case:
- A needs to be true
- I have to believe A is true
- I have to justify my belief of A being true.
Edit: What could possibly lead one to have a 'belief' that the 'one true all-knowing, loving god' would send 'his one and only son' into a pack of bronze-age illiterate goat-hearding jews, and that his 'sole purpose' was to be 'sacrificed as a human' so that all the rest of the humans could be 'saved' from original sin by being 'spiritually washed in his blood'? The mental gymnastics that are required for this are at Olga Korbut levels.
Maybe. What's your standard for determining this to be false? What's your alternative grand-narrative and how did you verify it?
Just as I was expecting you spouted normie-tier level stuff. I hope it's just an age thing because I used to say things like that in my early 20's thinking it was deep.
I don't care. I just pointed out the model didn't reply with No.
I just wrote what the model replied which is not what OP suggested. I didn't say I believe it.
How are people here so stupid?
Dude, I wasn't Christian for the better part of my life. I've red tons of philosophy books and did much introspection and soul-searching before I came to my current belief. It is not blind faith and I can comfortably argue for it and why it is the only truly reasonable and logically consistent position that can explain and provide justification for our reality. You don't know me and don't know what you're talking about so stop playing shrink.
But do tell, what is your worldview? What is your standard for what's good? I take it it's totally genuine and you're not subject to the things you accuse me of. But I'd be surprised if your position is not regurgitated old gnostic heresies that have been resurrected by the freemasons (jews) and popularized by the new age movement - as all antichristian ideas virtually are.
He was raised in an Orthodox family. I never said he was Orthodox himself.
I don't know that he does.
He was raised in an Orthodox family. I never said he was Orthodox himself.
Got that answer:
Yes.

I just tune out on the religious and vaccine stuff
At least the NPC was upfront. It's the programming they get from social engineering through education and media. What they've been programmed with is their dogma and it's not up for discussion or argument. I get where they're coming from.
I'm not going to argue with you but I want to address what gpt said:
The brain simply reorients from “logic mode” to “language mode.”
Language is logic (literally coming from the greek logos). Granted it makes a huge difference what you're using it for, but it obviously can get very abstract, especially in deep philosophical discussions.
Video lost all credibility by quoting scientism talmudic regime puppets like Carl Sagan and Steven Hawking. Anyone who is truly a critical thinker knows they are full of shit.
Anyone who calls Carl Sagan "a great mind" is cooked. He's up there with Neil DeGrasse and Bill Nye the science guy.
Maybe. At this point everything is a psy op but if you know the truth and what the big picture is they can't get to you.
Interesting. Appreciate the source, even though the document could be forged.
Bullshit.
Putin has no Jewish ancestry. His family is Christian Orthodox with peasantry roots. Why do you lie?
1776 was the year Adam Weishaupt officially established the Bavarian Illuminati. I'm sure it's just a coincidence.
I wonder what's the significance of Annuit Coeptis, Novus Ordo Secluorum (spelling MASON when drawing a pentagram), the all seeing eye with rays coming from it (literally eye of Sauron) on top of an unfinished pyramid on the Great Seal?
One has to be a complete moron (sadly most of so called conservatives) to believe this was ever a Christian country and not a pseudo-Enlightenment illuminist freemasonic talmudic project for a future One world government, paving the way for the Antichrist.
No, I'm not a relativist. There's objective good and evil.
You know such technology will never be accessible to the unwashed masses who will get poisoned and depoped instead.
Is this why jews were banished and prosecuted in those countries by the Church and the monarchs and only returned when Rome's power started to dwindle after the talmudic Reformation and the masonic Enlightenment?
You can buy stuff using BTC and the government will be non the wiser. This is why BTC is preferred in the criminal world.
But you also convert gold to cash when you want to purchase something so what's your point? The government knows either way because they will notice a new car or a property on your name and ask where the money came from.
