Odell: "Stay humble and stack sats" Also Odell: Here is a link to gamble with your sats on "prediction markets". The new slogan should be: Stay humble and gamble your sats"

Prediction markets and wagers outperform commentary as truth-finding mechanisms. Opinions are free to produce but positions cost something. The moment capital is at risk, the incentive to be accurate overtakes the incentive to signal tribal affiliation.

I think gambling being pushed at the current scale is wrong and bad for society, but fail to see why you have such gripe with prediction markets and framing like “you’re a fake bitcoiner if you participate”.

We are witnessing a bubble of epic proportions. The AI hype alone should be enough indicator. It is the dot com bubble all over again. https://youtube.com/watch?v=z3kaLM8Oj4o

Haven’t watched this specific video but used to love coldfusion until I watched his Bitcoin video and realized he doesn’t know what he’s talking about. Stopped watching that channel when I asked myself what else he might he be bullshiting on in topics I’m not an familiar with? Bitcoin is a difficult litmus test to pass, but i lost trust pretty quickly after that

Never saw it way thanks for explaining it. They definitely don’t get deep enough to cover underlying reasons all the time, but I suspect that’s to keep attention as a lot of ppl aren’t ready to understand the deeper issues. I.e. you can’t orange pill someone without teaching them the attocities of Keynesian Economics first.

I love Louis Rossman! That’s a great example of a based mf. He needs to be on Nostr but I remember he was promoting a new social media a few years back. The issue with his reach is that his videos are not edited and produced well enough to spread to the masses. He probably already captured most of the freedom/privacy/tech segment. To normies, he’s just a guy in front of his computer ranting on a mic, wish he tried to make more engaging videos because he’s an amazing champion of freedom.

This is why you can't orange pill normies with charts and number-go-up. You have to break their fiat brain first. Show them the theft. Then show them the exit. Louis Rossmann gets it because he fights rent-seeking daily. Right to repair is anti-fiat energy. Speaking of orange pilling: zap me and ...
