Actually I disagree with this. Some of the most prosperous periods of our time was when the world was on a unified currency... Which was gold. When more countries shifted to the gold standard, we were in a period of economic bliss. Meanwhile, countries that refused to (China for example on the silver standard) went to fucking shit. Really it's no wonder they went full blown retard with their economic policy. They got left behind hard.

I've long since been shit on this, but Bitcoin isn't solving a problem of being your own bank. I don't need to be my own bank because I can just get my money and lock it up somewhere. What crypto solves is being a currency that can't be tampered with, or inflated artificially. It is a fixed supply with fixed rules. Put simply, that's why BTC will never truly go away and why nobody will ever adopt bsv or bch fully. Bsv especially because it painfully underestimated why BTC has value in the first place.

So when the world moved to gold backed paper currency, it was simple. This much note is this much gold. Done. No fucking with forex. No financial planners. This was what our dollar is worth and everyone agreed. Now it's a fucking disaster where the feds sole goal is to undercut other countries doing the same shit. It isn't right. What makes fiat isn't being backed by shiny rocks. It is its inability to establish a strict set of rules and easily follow them. For that reason it is doomed to fail. And when you consider how successful the global economy was pre WWI and Keynes faggotry, it's hard to believe historians and economists alike sweep it under a rug.

I only have myself to blame for not getting more than 1000 linkies before this last month. I had two years. I could have accumulated so much more.

I'm sorry lads. It turns out the best fud is just to never shut the fuck up about your investment. Who knew?

True. I'm a boomer and I only trust other boomers after we've looked each other in the eye, shaken hands, and touched each other's penises. Trust at a distance for the fucking flu? Don't think so. If I can't touch the tip of your penis to mine and stare you in the eyes like a man then I can't trust you with my lawnmower and BBQ grill
