Flirting With Bitcoin

by @pacificnorthwest

FW₿054 - TikTok Next BlockIan and Mandana discuss the recent testimony of the CEO of TikTok in Congress and about a letter signed by tech leaders like Elon Musk and Steve Wozniak, among others, calling for a halt to open AI development and how this connects to Bitcoin and the opinions of the Bitcoin community. The episode also touched upon OpenAI, a company that started as a nonprofit, which aimed to open-source all AI technology to prevent anyone from having an upper hand in the industry and creating dangerous robots. OpenAI eventually became a for-profit company and partnered with Microsoft, which bought a stake in the company, but Microsoft doesn't own OpenAI. The podcast explained why tech leaders are concerned about OpenAI and AI models, and how a billion-dollar investment in OpenAI by Microsoft could potentially result in complete control over the company.(Summary generated by GPT-4)ToolsSatoshi Savings CalculatorFollow UsWebsite | Twitter | Instagram | Ian's TwitterPodcast Pubkey: npub1627md0lshr7hsa9z6ud8xpln2xvrszjcqv0uu5d8cjvz4f2vscnsat3aecIan’s Pubkey: npub1pmhevxtlt3478pvmdqt7dftnv6zc2mzpdc569yjm6ks4k2jhezcs53uksrMandana’s PubKey: npub1yz8n8jf7zye7ew6yftqr4hes6s3zlamaygr8amzkw05lwnqwjz5svspxp7RecommendationsStrike Referral ($5)Swan BitcoinUnchained CapitalFountain Podcasts (listen to earn)Stacker News Referal (100 sats)StatsFlirting With ₿itcoin is 65017 Blocks OldIts been 1463 Blocks Since Last Episode56962 Blocks Until Next Halving3530 Satoshis for $1 Get full access to Flirting With Bitcoin at www.flirtingwithbitcoin.com/subscribe

Ian, who always points to Bitcoin as a tool for revolution, identifies a reliable Bitcoin exchange and wallet that can be used by those in Iran to convert their Tomans to Bitcoin.

“This period looks a lot like the 1940s, which is when you have a combination of high debt and high inflation, which is not what you had in the 70s. In the 70s they had low debt and high inflation, which means they had a lot more tools to respond to it…when you have that combination of both…that’s the closest thing that a central bank has to a checkmate scenario, where there’s only bad options.”— Lyn AldenLyn Alden is a macroeconomist and investment strategist. In this interview, we discuss the recent market turmoil that followed the UK government's proposed tax cuts. Why did the market reaction nearly result in the collapse of UK pension funds? What are the underlying issues? Where are we heading? - - - - Liz Truss became the UK’s new Prime Minister on the 6th of September. She immediately worked to develop a financial package that would protect people from unprecedented hikes in energy prices. At the same time, Truss was keen to implement a long-held economic ideology predicated on stimulating growth through low taxes and reduced regulatory burdens.A political judgement was made to prioritise promulgating tax cuts ahead of any assessment of what spending cuts would be required to balance the budget; a huge emergency fiscal package was being combined with reductions in revenue. In the absence of any other information, the market took fright: the government wasn’t deemed to be in control of a burgeoning debt pile.Immediately following the government announcement, the bond interest rates rose sharply whilst the British pound dropped precipitously. Despite government protests that the market response was due to external factors, the messaging was clear: the UK economy is becoming dangerously unbalanced. Within days the Bank of England had to react and start a £65 billion purchase programme to save a number of pension funds from collapse.So, what actually happened? Experts, commentators and politicians have argued about the causes and outlook, whilst mortgage rates have rocketed such that emergency payments for energy costs will be dwarfed by additional mortgage payments. Is the UK economy at risk? If so, why, and what is the outlook? Does history teach us anything? And, fundamentally, can debt be brought back under control? - - - - This episode’s sponsors:Gemini - Buy Bitcoin instantlyLedn - Financial services for Bitcoin hodlersBitcasino - The Future of Gaming is herePacific Bitcoin - Bitcoin‑only event, Nov 10 & 11, 2022Ledger - State of the art Bitcoin hardware walletWasabi Wallet - Privacy by defaultTexas Blockchain Summit - Nov 17-18, 2022 | Austin, TexasBCB Group - Global digital financial Services-----WBD565 - Show Notes-----If you enjoy The What Bitcoin Did Podcast you can help support the show by doing the following:Become a Patron and get access to shows early or help contributeMake a tip:Bitcoin: 3FiC6w7eb3dkcaNHMAnj39ANTAkv8Ufi2SQR Codes: BitcoinIf you do send a tip then please email me so that I can say thank youSubscribe on iTunes | Spotify | Stitcher | SoundCloud | YouTube | Deezer | TuneIn | RSS FeedLeave a review on iTunesShare the show and episodes with your friends and familySubscribe to the newsletter on my websiteFollow me on Twitter Personal | Twitter Podcast | Instagram | Medium | YouTubeIf you are interested in sponsoring the show, you can read more about that here or please feel free to drop me an email to discuss options.

Ian attempts to explain the difference between saving and spending Bitcoin and how their initial strategy of combining finances set them up for Bitcoin success with the ultimate goal of “retiring his wife”. In addition to the Satoshi Savings Calculator, Ian shows Mandana one of the websites, Priced In Bitcoin, that helped him convert to the Satoshi mindset and build conviction in the idea that “when you live on a Bitcoin standard, everything has been getting cheaper!”ToolsSatoshi Savings CalculatorFollow UsWebsite | Twitter | Instagram | Ian's TwitterRecommendationsStrikeUnchained CapitalFountain PodcastsStacker NewsThe Bitcoin Standard Get full access to Flirting With Bitcoin at www.flirtingwithbitcoin.com/subscribe
