Yeah. I owe you this much gold. 649 00:30:04,700 --> 00:30:09,233 And then people realized they they could trade the receipts 650 00:30:09,233 --> 00:30:10,933 instead of trading the actual gold, 651 00:30:10,933 --> 00:30:13,666 because the receipts didn't wait as much as the gold. 652 00:30:13,666 --> 00:30:15,200 So that's the portability thing. 653 00:30:15,200 --> 00:30:17,333 So that's how fear begins. 654 00:30:17,333 --> 00:30:20,633 People trading receipts for gold so they could redeem the gold 655 00:30:21,166 --> 00:30:24,766 by giving the receipt back until the the banker 656 00:30:24,800 --> 00:30:28,100 realized that he could give out more receipts than he actually had, 657 00:30:28,766 --> 00:30:32,433 gold in the vault because the the risk that everyone would, 658 00:30:33,133 --> 00:30:36,900 withdraw their gold at the same time was extremely low. 659 00:30:37,600 --> 00:30:38,566 So he could do this. 660 00:30:38,566 --> 00:30:41,566 It could print more bills than he actually had gold in it 661 00:30:41,733 --> 00:30:44,900 in its vaults, which, of course made the banker extremely rich. 662 00:30:45,433 --> 00:30:48,700 And he could promise like, interest and stuff on this, like, 663 00:30:49,300 --> 00:30:51,466 which he created out of thin air. 664 00:30:51,466 --> 00:30:54,266 So, so he was getting getting the customers 665 00:30:54,266 --> 00:30:58,066 in on the scheme without them knowing that they were in on the scheme 666 00:30:58,066 --> 00:31:02,366 because he could pay them interest, because the interest wasn't really there. 667 00:31:02,366 --> 00:31:04,733 It was just conjured out the thing there. 668 00:31:04,733 --> 00:31:07,500 So this is how the monetary bill comes into being. 669 00:31:08,866 --> 00:31:10,033 And of course, when you had 670 00:31:10,033 --> 00:31:13,033 competing monies under competing, 671 00:31:13,933 --> 00:31:16,700 bankers, 672 00:31:16,700 --> 00:31:18,466 every once in a while there was a bank run 673 00:31:18,466 --> 00:31:22,933 and everyone decided that, oh, holy shit, this guy is probably up to no good. 674 00:31:22,933 --> 00:31:25,933 What if we all withdraw our gold at the same time 675 00:31:26,000 --> 00:31:29,900 and then, the guy had to flee because he got, like, 676 00:31:30,633 --> 00:31:33,166 lynch mob with pitchforks and torches after him 677 00:31:33,166 --> 00:31:36,433 because they realized that he'd been fucking people over for a long time. 678 00:31:36,800 --> 00:31:38,833 And this happened, 679 00:31:38,833 --> 00:31:42,200 on many occasions in many countries over and over again 680 00:31:42,766 --> 00:31:45,766 until the invention of the central bank, which is actually 681 00:31:45,866 --> 00:31:49,233 which is basically an institution that saves the asshole 682 00:31:49,700 --> 00:31:52,300 from the people who just want their money back. 683 00:31:52,300 --> 00:31:53,833 But but at the end of the day, 684 00:31:54,966 --> 00:31:57,733 all inflation is theft. 685 00:31:57,733 --> 00:31:59,066 There is no way around that. 686 00:31:59,066 --> 00:32:03,133 If you can't redeem the receipt for the gold that you put into the bank 687 00:32:03,933 --> 00:32:08,966 you were being stolen from, and there's there's no middle ground whatsoever. 688 00:32:08,966 --> 00:32:11,933 If if this banker prints 689 00:32:11,933 --> 00:32:16,600 a single dollar more than he has in his vaults, then it's fraud. 690 00:32:17,300 --> 00:32:20,300 And every bank in the world does. 691 00:32:20,400 --> 00:32:22,700 It's, It's just mind blowing. 692 00:32:22,700 --> 00:32:27,033 We're all being fucked over because we're being stolen from at all times. 693 00:32:27,500 --> 00:32:30,500 And Bitcoin is the remedy because you can print more of it. 694 00:32:30,533 --> 00:32:32,200 It's even better than gold. 695 00:32:32,200 --> 00:32:36,500 Because gold, if the gold price goes up, people will find more gold. 696 00:32:37,066 --> 00:32:40,066 With Bitcoin, it doesn't matter because you have the difficulty. 697 00:32:40,866 --> 00:32:42,766 Adjustment algorithm and yep. 698 00:32:42,766 --> 00:32:44,200 Have you seen that later. 699 00:32:44,200 --> 00:32:47,200 The latest meme around that was so great. 700 00:32:47,300 --> 00:32:50,600 It's like a Venn diagram on, I think I saw it on Twitter. 701 00:32:52,033 --> 00:32:53,833 There's like, people who 702 00:32:53,833 --> 00:32:58,200 oppose Bitcoin and people who understand the difficulty adjustment algorithm. 703 00:32:58,566 --> 00:33:01,266 And in the intersection, there's a very thin intersection. 704 00:33:01,266 --> 00:33:04,266 It's like no one I've ever met. 705 00:33:05,866 --> 00:33:06,633 Like, 706 00:33:06,633 --> 00:33:09,900 because if you understand the difficulty adjustment algorithm, 707 00:33:09,900 --> 00:33:13,300 you cannot be against Bitcoin like you cannot. 708 00:33:13,733 --> 00:33:16,466 There is no way of understanding this thing 709 00:33:16,466 --> 00:33:18,733 and having arguments against Bitcoin. 710 00:33:18,733 --> 00:33:20,300 It just doesn't work. 711 00:33:20,300 --> 00:33:23,300 If you understand the difficulty adjustment, 712 00:33:23,533 --> 00:33:25,700 algorithm, you understand 713 00:33:25,700 --> 00:33:29,333 why Bitcoin is the remedy to inflation because you understand. 714 00:33:29,966 --> 00:33:32,966 You understand everything divided by 21 million, right? 715 00:33:33,100 --> 00:33:35,300 You understand that this is unstoppable. 716 00:33:35,300 --> 00:33:37,733 You understand why you can print more of it. 717 00:33:37,733 --> 00:33:40,066 And it's just for the first time in history, 718 00:33:40,066 --> 00:33:44,033 we have something that is tamper proof and that is asshole proof. 719 00:33:45,100 --> 00:33:47,000 And we've never had that in money. 720 00:33:47,000 --> 00:33:49,000 It's always been abused. 721 00:33:50,000 --> 00:33:50,700 And which 722 00:33:50,700 --> 00:33:53,700 means that like 5000 years of history is 723 00:33:54,600 --> 00:33:57,333 it is like, 724 00:33:57,333 --> 00:34:01,900 there's so much misinformation in it because the winner writes history, right? 725 00:34:01,900 --> 00:34:04,900 And the winner always had a 726 00:34:05,600 --> 00:34:08,366 a certain percentage of ass 727 00:34:08,366 --> 00:34:11,366 holiness that took them where they went, like, like 728 00:34:11,533 --> 00:34:15,333 because they were founded, funded like all wars 729 00:34:15,633 --> 00:34:19,666 were funded and prolonged by inflation to one to to some extent, 730 00:34:20,133 --> 00:34:23,333 like the the First World War is called the Great War. 731 00:34:23,333 --> 00:34:26,166 At the time, it arguably never ended. 732 00:34:26,166 --> 00:34:30,500 It's a war between the governments of the world and their populations, 733 00:34:30,500 --> 00:34:33,500 and it's still ongoing because they're still stealing from us. 734 00:34:34,000 --> 00:34:35,133 They're still the assholes. 735 00:34:35,133 --> 00:34:38,166 They're still just fucking stealing our stuff through this 736 00:34:38,866 --> 00:34:41,200 evil scheme that never ends. 737 00:34:41,200 --> 00:34:44,766 And we've been living in it for so many generations now that it took 738 00:34:44,766 --> 00:34:47,966 like a genius, like Satoshi Nakamoto to like, finally 739 00:34:47,966 --> 00:34:52,000 pop that stupid bubble that everyone's been 740 00:34:52,000 --> 00:34:55,633 living in forever and ever, like most of the world still believes in it. 741 00:34:55,766 --> 00:34:59,200 It's just a handful of bitcoiners here and there that actually get it 742 00:34:59,633 --> 00:35:02,366 and that actually are trying to get out of it. 743 00:35:02,366 --> 00:35:04,666 But at the end of the day, it's all theft. 744 00:35:04,666 --> 00:35:06,766 We're all just being abused. 745 00:35:06,766 --> 00:35:08,533 Who? Rape victims, for fuck's sake. 746 00:35:09,666 --> 00:35:10,033 Yeah. 747 00:35:10,033 --> 00:35:12,200 And of rent.

It's natural. 753 00:35:25,400 --> 00:35:26,300 It's like gravity. 754 00:35:26,300 --> 00:35:29,866 It's like, you know, the waves and even the people that work at the banks, right. 755 00:35:29,866 --> 00:35:33,500 Like these mortgage brokers and people that deal and, you know, 756 00:35:34,100 --> 00:35:36,800 paperwork for debt, like, a lot, a lot of them don't 757 00:35:36,800 --> 00:35:39,966 even connect the dots that they're the ones contributing to inflation. 758 00:35:39,966 --> 00:35:43,700 So the abusers, many of them, most of them 759 00:35:43,700 --> 00:35:47,133 probably are actually aware of what they're doing. 760 00:35:47,133 --> 00:35:48,700 It's like a beautiful scam. 761 00:35:48,700 --> 00:35:50,766 It's it's a beautiful, beautiful scam. 762 00:35:50,766 --> 00:35:52,600 It's the best scam ever, man. 763 00:35:52,600 --> 00:35:56,966 And, I think the first iteration of Fiat was like, 764 00:35:56,966 --> 00:36:00,000 paper was in China and like the 1600s or something like that. 765 00:36:00,233 --> 00:36:02,800 And this dude had a kingdom where, like, 766 00:36:02,800 --> 00:36:06,866 if you ever brought any goods in from out of the kingdom, you had to go 767 00:36:06,866 --> 00:36:10,500 take it to him and he would give you the paper value of it in exchange. 768 00:36:10,600 --> 00:36:12,366 So he amassed like, 769 00:36:12,366 --> 00:36:16,100 you know, all of this beautiful jewelry and all these assets and everything. 770 00:36:16,100 --> 00:36:20,100 And again, like the people didn't understand what was happening. 771 00:36:20,400 --> 00:36:22,666 So yeah, it is theft. 772 00:36:22,666 --> 00:36:25,666 And again, it's a gaslighting too, because then, of course, 773 00:36:25,866 --> 00:36:31,000 like anybody who's being stolen from consistently and more and more over 774 00:36:31,000 --> 00:36:34,266 time, you're going to be upset, you're going to be irritated. 775 00:36:34,266 --> 00:36:37,433 Your life is probably going to be more difficult to be kept together, 776 00:36:37,566 --> 00:36:41,200 and that's going to cause a bunch of other issues, like, in my opinion, 777 00:36:41,833 --> 00:36:44,833 the way I see it, it's a very simple storyline. 778 00:36:45,666 --> 00:36:48,100 The government prints money to go to war. 779 00:36:48,100 --> 00:36:50,066 They know it's going to cause inflation, 780 00:36:50,066 --> 00:36:54,566 so then they start making food cheaper, which causes more health problems. 781 00:36:54,566 --> 00:36:56,766 Oh shit, there's still in dollars inflation. 782 00:36:56,766 --> 00:36:57,933 We need to have cheap goods. 783 00:36:57,933 --> 00:37:01,066 So we need to go to these other countries and then like, you know, loan them 784 00:37:01,066 --> 00:37:04,733 money to produce the things that we want over here. 785 00:37:04,833 --> 00:37:06,533 Oh fuck.
