How can Nic be so knowledgeable at his 15 years of age?

Savant.

Regarding the energy FUD, Why are we not discussing the waste caused by planned obsolecense and corporate obstruction and prohibition of repairs?

Indeed.

Another incredibly insightful conversation, always love to see these guys back on your show.

[@tcpwiz1]

Easily one of the most informative episodes yet and one that takes a couple of viewings to fully appreciate! Thanks guys!

[@sergiootero5904]

Now I don't feel bad for failing PoliSci, they weren't teaching shit anyway.

[@daniellewandowski4852]

Great mini history lesson and really appreciated the explanation of the petro dollar’s influence over how the US has been operating politically/militarily. Definitely painted a clearer picture for me.

[@amarvinamarvin]

Great content, appreciate Alex inside into details of petrodollar history. Nick is great as always. Peter thanks for evangelizing the Bitcoin knowledge!

[@ReVoltAgefilms]

This is such an important podcast episode.

[@williamcatt5570]

Brilliant content. Your channel is quickly becoming my favorite way to learn about BItcoin and strengthen my conviction.

[@marcosrivera3606]

Wow. Learned a lot on this one. Great content!

[@wiljam12345]

Wow, this is one of the best episodes in a while, many thanks!!!!

[@STEV3.147]

Love what you do for the crypto community. Probably nothing you can do about it but for some reason when I download your show to listen to on my bike ride it takes an extremely long time to download. I don’t know if there’s another format that you could look at posting in. Just trying to be helpful. Peace and be safe

[@wotterdog]

I’m fresh Bitcoin HODLer. Just got familiar with Bitcoin Twitter. Fucking pumped about this pod now that I know these names!

[@johnsmith4630]

Welcome aboard. You got in at a good time

[@wotterdog]

Woo! And I'm back for another listen!

[@TheTunnelVizion]

And nobody remembers Patrice Lumumba, the first elected Prime Minister of the independent Democratic Republic of the Congo. Assassinated by rebels in a joint American/Belgian operation to prohibit oil from being (potentially) sold to Russia in the 60's. Democracy was replaced by a military dictatorship.

for over 10 years now I've been struggling to identify the "HARDCORE" link between Gold+Debt+Oil+Wars/Currency ($ Dollars) = Climatic Change delays.Thank you for this link and answering the biggest question in my life and how to properly Strategize on the future....🤔🤔🤔🤔 So far my Bottom Line Analysis is :CO2 per Barrel and Carbon Markets CO2 price pegged to Oil EROI's

[@wogi9412]

Brilliant episode! Belongs in schools, seriously.

[@vvp24]

The best part was when Peter said “when Elon decided to learn in public” 100%

[@sciencebunnies]

This podcast is consistently fascinating.

[@Will_LLaP]

I learnt do much from this video. Really interesting

[@aescubed]

2 questions: The supply:floar ratio, if Nuclear Fusion is realised (energy too cheap to meter), the float would dramatically increase. Would it make Bitcoin less hard? One saving grace is that Bitcoin is capped at 21m. What is the problem with MMT, in layman terms?

[@ThomasDunneMotivation]

Excellent Show

[@alucard2d]

Thanks to Jake Tran for shouting out this video💯

Link to petrodollar vid?

[@squeegeedee]

Would anyone happen to know where I can get a copy of the bitcoin certificate seen over Alex's right shoulder? I've done some online digging and all I can find are low-rez scans of it.

Very interesting. I remember the 1970s in the UK and the high levels of inflation.

[@tcpwiz1]

Me too, inflation and oil embargos in the US.

[@tinglestingles]

@@tcpwiz1 I think I remember we almost got petrol rationing. My dad received a ration book but was never used. Just seen some for sale on eBay dated 1973.

[@donclaro3858]

Fascinating. The petrodollar story has a conspiracy flavor wrapped in facts, crazy historical coincidences, and ties it to the BTC future.

[@MetalBum]

Good show.

[@andreww5574]

Anyone have a link to the BBC Iraq war series?

Excellent.

[@lenr7582]

So we exported our inflation to the Middle East and now China! Now what happens since we can't export our inflation?

[@qwerty6574]

I can't find any records of a french destroyer actually landing on the east coast to collect gold. Only anecdotes by authors discussing monetary standards. Could this be an fiat myth?

[@sergiootero5904]

Maybe Alex Goldstein will carry the torch for Scott Horton when it's time.

[@johnsmith4630]

Goldstein can go back to the pale settlement. The chutzpa of him ignoring the zionist motive for the war. The chitzpa of him talking about the saudi hijackers but ignoring the dancing is ray lees

[@bujin5455]

That was great!

[@ssm59]

Most people are blind to the impact of the petrodollar system an how it supports their lifestyles. Even a restructuring will panic many boomers thus carry the system forward much longer than it would left to its on devices. As to dependency on fossil fuels you had best get used to it. Everyone focuses on coal and fuels for transportation but that is only part of the picture. Simply put every aspect of our lives is dependent on the petrochemical industry. From food to medicine to housing to even you clothing comes from derivatives of fossil fuels. Even if you jump to electric cars tomorrow, we will still have to pull oil and gas from the ground to build all the components that goes into those cars. Once we move to modular Nuke and power costs drop to near zero will it be economical to move away from that dependency

Excellent, bros. Unpopular opinion, but isn't "americanizing" Bitcoin through mining or media to create something similar to a Petrodollar 2.0? What happened to the original borderless vision of banking the unbanked?

The way they take btc like gold is true Fud

[@aescubed]

Don't peg the USD to BTC, let every currency peg itself to BTC (and every currency be fully convertible), that way I can pay in Rupees, Pesos, Dhirams, Rubels, Dinars, Pound Sterling, Dollars, or Euros - doesn't matter. I do not have to get the dollar in order to pay internationally.

Comment for the algorithm

[@choski76]

why cant tyrants and wealthy accumulate the most bitcoin and do with it what was done with gold or petrodollars?

[@Tenebrousable]

The printing is what is done with petrodollars. That's the thievery part. That can not be done with BTC. The only way to get BTC, is to exchange it for something your trading partner wants more. That's very good. Have tyrants get all the BTC they want, they'll have to sell their dictatorship to the people to get it. It's almost unbeliavably beatifull.

[@eweseloh]

It would still be decentralized and deflationary. even if you were the last person on earth to get into BTC, 100% of your monetary energy would be preserved by the bitcoin standard.

[@Tracey66]

I think they are doing just that.

[@choski76]

bezos, gates, buffet can over affect the poor with how they direct their billions via philanpothry. and they have way oversize influence on policy. and areas of need

[@fusion9619]

The part that I'm not getting is, why did the Saudis buy the US's debt? Why does anyone buy it? It's a guaranteed bad investment. I just don't get that part.
