Meint ihr, wir schaffen es darauf zu verzichten, einfach stumpf „Kapitalismus😡“ zu posten, wenn in 2025-2029 die Vermögensschere weiter auseinandergeht, nachdem der der Staat aus dem Nichts 500 Mrd schöpft, die natürlich vor allem an staatsnahe Auftragnehmer gehen?
Kapitalismus ≠ Cantillon-Effekt.

Interessant, wie durch die Bauernproteste klar wird, dass die Anti-Klimakleber-Fraktion doch kein Problem mit der Protestform hat. Es sollen aber nur diejenigen, die aus ihrer Sicht „was geleistet“ haben, ein Anrecht auf diese Protestform haben.
Protest in Zukunft nur mit beglaubigtem Lebenslauf?

Is Bitcoin a powerful force for development in Africa, from mining to fund electricity in remote rural areas through to undermining dictatorship? My @unherd report from Malawi t.co/Gdwj6BIVe6
The African village mining Bitcoin
The controversial cryptocurrency can be a liberating force

Seems like BlueSky invite codes weren’t the new Bitcoin after all.
They should try a halving of supply instead of an exponential expansion.

Every few years people are surprised that „Bitcoin is still a thing“. At what point will they have to concede that they have been massively misinformed by outlets that mainly feed the perceived need for stories that „Bitcoin has crashed for good and you were right to ignore it“?

Nothing new, but it’s getting covered by larger publications now: Bitcoin could supercharge the transition to a renewable energy grid.

In my „New songs 2023“ playlist, I have queued the new song by MGMT just behind the Beatles song that was recently released.
It’s always fascinating how much better the MGMT song is in direct comparison.

I have just read in r/millenials why the majority there thinks that „inflation is important for the economy to work“ and I am now convinced that they are just younger Boomers, but without the financial means.
I don’t want to hear complaints about „rampant consumerism“ from these people ever again.

Bitcoin is a vote against centralization of power and concentration of wealth.
This is an inherently left/progressive stance and it baffles me, that so many refuse to acknowledge or research that and instead opt to agitate against „Bitcoin bro“ strawmen.

There is a belief among Bitcoin detractors, that mining (and Bitcoin itself) would disappear if CO2 emissions would be taxed.
That’s wrong. Bitcoin can easily survive based on zero emissions (as mining is pretty location-agnostic).
Many other large industries have a higher dependency on fossils.

Wird Zeit, dass mehr Linke verstehen, dass billiges Geld und Turbokapitalismus (inkl. aller Auswüchse wie Klimakrise, Wachsen der Armutsschere, Monopol- und Oligopolbildung…) in engem Zusammenhang stehen.
Politische Umverteilung ist da relativ impotent u. nur ein Tropfen auf den heissen Stein.
