Finding Bitcoin Signal with Jeff Booth

[@unknownsoldier1627]

I see Jeff I click, then the endorphins roll in

[@mstafford368]

Easy there, Soldier! 😂

[@69spanks]

Same

[@richbirecki]

Pretty much my sentiments as well

[@bog6626]

wen endorphins roll in, you buy more BTC 😅

[@travishaines7410]

Buy buy buy buy buy buy buy buy buy buy lol

[@jingmu1289]

I felt like I had a knowledge feast after watching this episode. I am mentally very satisfied. Thank you!

[@TheRealDerekS]

Jeff is a gem. Made me think of something I heard Vijay say a while back, "Information moves at the speed of light, but understanding does not." We are all nodes for the development of understanding. Love that Bedford hoodie w/ the Bitcoin B on it. I will be buying one. Go Bedford! (and SKOL Vikings!!)

[@_ben_sisko]

Every episode is like I'm going back to school again. But this time for an education that is actually worth it!

[@gloriamariadc7757]

“Abundance in $$$ is scarcity everywhere. Scarcity in $$$ creates abundance everywhere.” That’s deep.

[@pjromao2]

As usual and once again… Jeff’s brilliant & inspiring. Good job Peter all WBD team.

[@glenncharles6622]

Peter, another amazing podcast. I could listen to Jeff every day. Mind blowing things to think about.

[@channelbitcoin21M]

I’ve been saying this for years - Bitcoin is constantly gathering economic information. That’s why it appreciates in value, given it’s properties and parameters, over time. Bitcoin is a near-perfect substrate for economic information.

[@weepz]

"You either come to the realization that central banking is at the root of many of society's ills, or you remain trapped in a loop of blaming the 'other side' while distracted by the 'current thing'."

[@caseyfit]

Jeff is the best IMO. His book was the first book I read when I went down this Bitcoin rabbit hole.

[@realcyberghost]

This was great, I listen a lot to various motivational videos, but this one gets me more excited and feeling good about the future than anything heard in a long time.

[@IntuitiveIQ]

Just finished a different episode, now ready for this one. 🙏🏻

[@randyjones3050]

This is the best interview with Jeff Booth I've heard yet. It brought together many different ideas I've been thinking about for a long time, but stated in a very coherent logical manner. I had sever "AhHa" moments while listening to this particular discussion. You should send it to Jesse Powell because I think he needs to hear it.

[@DrJeffRoss]

This is a truly fantastic interview, which will stand the test of time. Kudos Peter and Jeff!

[@undaflow4074]

Absolutely blown away by this. I saw the pennies drop Peter and was with you as Jeff showed the depths of the crime we’re trying to live our lives in. Top shelf!

[@BecquePeters]

LOVE your work on this. Keep up these amazing interviews.

[@EHame]

Love your show. Respect Mr. Booth and love listening to him.

[@KevinBasham]

Fantastic interview! We had Jeff on our show last month, he’s one of my favourite guests.

[@vonnykintore]

I get home and I find this episode with Jeff!!! thank you guys!! great great work......super encouraged

[@gloriamariadc7757]

This is one of your very best best best episodes.

[@d9230]

Mind blowing! The podcast we needed to start from first principles but then get into the core.

[@adyscorpius2614]

I wish the title was better, cuz the content is mind blowing... Glad I watched it... Thank you for the interview..

[@markkelly4804]

Jeff Booth gives me more confidence in Bitcoin than any other person. He has authenticity, and abstracts everything out to first principles. Ideas from first principles - like bitcoin - always beat those competing ideas not from first principles.

[@BanksterSlayer]

My fave line at marker 44:44: People spend most of their time reinforcing the very system they hate. Vote Left or Right, it doesn't matter. You are working WITHIN that broken system. Your work is REINFORCING that broken system. You must EXIT that system because IT cannot be changed.

[@jakaciman2620]

The best episode ever.How long will it take to get to truth,how to make this process faster.

[@smartmoney607]

He killed it.

[@betterdays7613]

This great interview came at a perfect time to keep the drive alive. All the politics, bad practices and control issues surrounding BTC seem like a comedy, drama series, but not a horror story, to those of us waiting on cold storage. Thanks for hosting guys ! Good luck in the Great White North.

[@fuzznakano]

Well done Peter and team. You are doing a fantastic job in sharing this information all over the world. Mjr Tokyo 😊

[@derek.seaborn]

You’ve had some of my favourite guests lately. Thanks!

[@BitcoinEdge13]

Great interview. Healing the world with Jeff Booth one Bitcoin at a time 😊

[@humanitos.davidizquierdo6416]

i will study this interview deeply.Thank you!!

[@jimnichols5584]

I learn more every time I listen to or read something by Jeff. This podcast needs to be shared everywhere to speed up the transition. Thanks

[@vvmenno]

Mindblowing guys! It is not getting any better than this.

[@MrTno1TrickShot]

Mind blowing Peter, this is by far your best interview. Your work is immense as we move forward in a forever changing world. Congratulations and keep going. Keep standing on land mines😉🙏🏼🫶🏼👊🏼

[@boq81]

Mine-dancing becomes trendy. ✌

[@jonp.1084]

Booth = legend

[@RedBeardOps]

I want some detailed videos that systematically go though ETH's weaknesses and failure points. Cheers yall, love the show!

[@mg4u4ever]

well. easy. ETH is POS now and kzbin.info/www/bejne/n5yzn6VoaM1qp8k is all you need to show why it is systematically flawed "as money"

[@philfortner1805]

ETH is centralized, so it can be shut down tomorrow. ETH can be created and destroyed at will of leadership, raising or lowering it's value at any time. ETH contracts can be edited after the fact at the will of leadership. It's exactly fiat wearing a rubber crypto mask. And the mask smells all rubbery. Nasty.

[@Newhuman4444]

Please have someone who understands ETH and debate with them. It’s very easy to make overarching statements without any metrics or details to back it up

[@dingfeldersmurfalot4560]

Matt Kratter has some.

[@boq81]

I hear Buterin talk and I smell socialism.

[@r4yleung]

Mind blowing interview. BTC healing the world gave me goosebumps

[@Paul-Coburn]

Very insightful. A whole different way of looking at things.

[@amphibious2wheels618]

Thanks for sharing such a great chat w great guest! Cheers from Mexico!

[@CIGAR4686]

This is Jeff Booths greatest interview 👍🏿👍🏿

[@RenewedAmbience]

Damn, seeing this just uploaded made me shout with joy!

[@azdjedi]

1:15:40 You're not alone, Peter. It was a really good episode.

[@westra4]

Thanks Pete and Jeff. Let’s walk to the new system.

[@pat_attack]

2 great minds (3 including Danny). Brilliant interview.

[@aldo_antinori]

Jeff is an international treasure

[@frankjoy2455]

Guys, focus please: adoption will come when you don’t need a 12-24 words seed phrase you can lose and you don’t need to copy paste long addresses etc. Just simplify the user interface to begin with. Then wait for regulation (not btc regulation but institutional regulation)

[@johnroff2704]

Best show yet!

[@ikust007]

Really my type of interview. Thank you.

[@b_tang]

Mind-bending conversation

[@pamelaalford4685]

Excellent. Sending links to many in hopes it will clear some smoke!

[@essexdrone6595]

Awesome! 💥 THIS BLOWS MY MIND

[@endthefed5304]

Because the current system of money is based on debt being created out of thin air and the interest payment on that debt is not created when the money is printed, therefore the next creation of money has to be greater to include the interest payment for the previous creation of money... Fractional reserve lending is the problem.

[@endthefed5304]

Great observation!

[@jsmdify]

It’s clear Peter just cannot give up on his UK, big government nanny, state mentality. He’s moved forward since I started listening to him, but in the end, he just cannot let go of his programmed love of government and the delusion that somehow his voice matters.

[@daschnad8895]

I instantly bought more bitcoin after watchinhg this video. Jeff is so good at explaining such difficult things.

[@Alwayslearning426]

Pure signal here! Much gratitude for this information! Let's get out of the old system! Great job! Thanks!

[@MikeStillUK]

Who’s Mike? 😅

[@nickavlo]

aligning with Jeff's BTC 2nd-layer prediction, boracay island (philippines) has ~100 shops/services/sari/bus adopting lightning network. remittance service too.

[@coocoocachooglin]

Interested to see this. I've been trying to get my wife's family in the Visayas interested, they don't even have bank accounts, but when there is a need, we can send fiat via western union. The problem is, having a way to send btc, then for them, being able to offramp to fiat, because right now everything is fiat, however, adoption and transition is a challenge. As Peter says, he transacts in fiat, but has one foot in btc for the future. I'm curious what are the main lightning apps people are using in Boracay ? I myself use Strike to buy and send to cold storage, I don't even use it for payments of things at this point. But I would be interested in using it for remittance, the problem is them using it on that side. As it is right now, they go to a money changer and get charged a ridiculous fee to convert btc to fiat.

[@Sovtoshi_alt]

Jeff is pure signal

[@Sammythebull86]

Amazing interview!

[@SpringismySeason]

Jeff has an amazing mind. It would be nice to have his article you referenced in the description box. Nevertheless, I'll hunt it down.

[@jonburkhartsmeyer386]

Dang this interview was great!

[@doubleslit3389]

I’d pay $100 to hear a discussion with Jeff Booth and Yanis Varoufakis.

[@mr.p7616]

I’ve been a big follower of Jeff for sometime. I would love to hear a counter argument from someone like a vitalik. Maybe not so much of an argument as how the two can coexist and why both are necessary. My understanding from Jeff is, if its not built on BTC, it won’t last because it’s centralized. (Makes sense) is there another point of view?

[@EthanMiller1]

Man, I love this guy. I bought his book for a few people. Unfortunately it didn’t convert them to Maxis, like I. Oh well.

[@cjmilburn8343]

Seriously this guy is next level - Jeff Booth is hope. Bitcoin is hope. It's going to be ok guys.

[@jasonstaub3045]

Excellent episode !!!!!

[@snoopdobb]

Another great episode, but I did find some fundamental misunderstandings around Ethereum disappointing. Ethereum was definitely NOT created to focus on Scalability, nor do additional users increase centralization. Nevertheless, your Bitcoin guests and content is fantastic, keep up the great work!

[@SAL-fs1mr]

I remember being able to run an eth full node back in the day when very few people used it. Now with many more users, running an eth full node is very challenging. That's an example of it becoming more centralized with more users.

[@GLCstaked]

@@SAL-fs1mr not challenging at all, its super easy there's over 12k unique solo-validators on the network (this is after excluding centralised operators), each one has to run a full node.

[@jp34604]

Guys you missed the point which was that as the staking pools become larger the VOTEING concentration becomes higher and the security is drastically reduced as there are now barely a dozen pools with the vast majority of the tokens this is undeniable remember validators are not full nodes

[@qorazx]

One argument that is always brought up is that inflation is required for consumer spending. If we would be in a deflationary environment we wouldn't spend our money but rather save it to wait for things to become cheaper and cheaper. How do you see this? Is it really a harm for the economy?

[@jumpatoylit3655]

Great podcast

[@ChrisvP]

Jeff "who wants to think about this everyday.." ME ME ME. I do! I can't go back.

[@qayotee]

When I listened to this before bedtime yesterday I thought “Neat ideas wrapped in simple explanation”. But when I really listened this morning I wrote down new profound ideas every minute of the show and thought “I want to see this new world of trust and abundance”

[@gloriamariadc7757]

His TV purchase example is 700$ vs 2000$ 2 yrs prior.. meaning a better newer tv for a fraction of price.. I got confuse w/ his use of word “ridiculous”. He meant cheap, not more costly.

[@P__114]

I’m so excited for this

[@rupaw]

The whole argument breaks down around 59:10 Almost nobody does 5-Whys. Normies are so used to Inflation that they associate it more with their next pay-rise than with "theft" or "extortion". Resistance to change is far greater than curiosity about new ideas. It takes a catastrophic finance collapse before the mainstream gives Bitcoin a chance. And even then, many would just opt into another version of fiat currency. Old habits are hard to break.

[@bitcoinpoemspro1406]

Always love Jeff’s insights

[@richardwilson57]

would be amazing to get Jeff and Bitboy to debate ETH and BTC as money......

[@RotationFSX]

I like Jeff Booth. He has that voice like a pilot..

[@pauline9085]

Very interesting. In the vedic perspective, it's the same prediction. Prashant Trivedi has been saying for a couple of years now, we are transitioning from the age of ignorance to the age of clarify. In the near future, societal structures will be very different as what you see as government are not longer exist the same way.

[@stereodachs]

Pure rational stuff . Jeff is amazing 😻

[@Chandru.T]

WOW… great interview..

[@DanaJWright]

Jeff thinks my normie friends will know how to use the phrase “velocity of money” in a sentence. 😂

[@mandog-FYT]

The future's so Bright!

[@Alejandro_btc]

One of the best interviews i have ever seen. Thank you.

[@__lancaster]

Watching Peter barely able to follow Jeff is like looking into a mirror and reminding me of that Year 9 maths class when I was nodding furiously with eyes slightly glazed over knowing full well that the content was disappearing at a rapid rate right over my head. Good times.

[@motopolak]

This is how I feel too sometimes. Jeff is on another level!

[@StillTheTruth1]

So good!

[@DanielGonzales-di6tq]

Jeff blew my mind at pacific Bitcoin and in this podcast

[@Lex_Fur]

Ego Death Capital, that's a heavy name lol

[@ck35478]

This connected some thing for me. I'll be thinking about this for a while.

[@mbseeking6570]

You should interview Professor Richard Werner just ot hear what he has learned about how banks and credit money works.

[@itssteve6018]

Nah. Werner is an MMT nut. Jeff Snyder has a much better understanding of the system.

[@gloriamariadc7757]

This is the guy that Orange pilled me. His book is amazing! Jeff Booth

[@peterconley5533]

Drink every time Jeff says the word "system"

[@gkbhai8962]

I would like to see an interview where there is more of a debate or pushback because he's connecting a lot of dots that don't really connect.

[@Modwerks]

Can I suggest that Jeff fans pay a visit to Russell Brand's comment section and propose him as a guest. With enough of us we just might get noticed, and possibly facilitate an even wider dissemination of Mr Booth's essential message. ✌

[@azdjedi]

10:00 I don't understand this part.

[@ncpdigitalfamilyoffice2124]

Peter I love that even though you've been orange pilled you never stop questioning. In that spirit, have you ever worried privately that even with bitcoin and our understanding of the decentralized trust theory, there's still an article of faith required on the part of true believers to accept that everything we're told about decentralization is true without us really having the technological capability to corroborate or disprove it? Sort of like having a future SBF nightmare moment about bitcoin because we wake up one day and learn that Satoshi built a back door. Just wondering. Keep up the great work man. Love what you do.

[@vpnconsult]

Time for a new wave 🌊 of Capitalism.

[@senorgringopapi2059]

Smart man!

[@westtexashodler2646]

My favorite part was where Jeff explains why your vote doesn't count in a democracy.

[@robertrobert6665]

The view from 50,000 no 500.000 feet! Looks clear...full speed ahead.

[@RadagastilBruno666]

Fantastic

[@drxkalishnakov2464]

Inflation in proportion to gdp growth is not theft, deflation is. If you owned wealth equal to 1% of GDP , in a deflationary system if GDP rises by 10% now you have the wealth to demand 10% more goods and services just by holding your wealth , you did not have to be productive at all , justifiably , you should only have wealth equal to the amount of goods and services it was worth when you earned it. Deflationary economy rewards the unproductive at the expense of the productive, it is theft from innovators and producers and workers to those who already have wealth or their heirs.

[@cdb8987]

The entire concept of investment is that 1. someone makes a sacrifice (deferring consumption of resources out into the future). 2. Until that investment is reclaimed, someone else has an opportunity to use those resources which they otherwise would NOT be entitled to and use it more effectively and 3. The person who received the investment build something more valuable than they could build from scratch and the person who deferred consumption (which made it possible) is rewarded by a larger claim to resources than if they had consumed immediately after earning. As long as the money is sound (and not able to be diluted, it is a win-win situation for everyone). This is what we try and approximate by offering "yield"/interest. But in a sound money/deflationary system you don't need this. Everyone who defers consumption gains a larger claim to future resources simply by holding money itself. Only in this situation everyone wins instead of just banks/governments.
