I had the immense pleasure of hopping on a call with @Jkylebass and @parkeralewis after the markets closed today to discuss the current chaos hitting the markets and the reaction needed to right the ship in the United States. Enjoy. anchor.fm/tales-from-the-cry…

I wrote a long essay about the news. In the past decade, nothing has changed more than our relationship with information. The world feels crazy. We're confused. We're polarized. We're exhausted. But smart information consumers have a huge advantage. perell.com/blog/news-in-the-… – at Brooklyn, NY

1/ Before the creation of Bitcoin, a non-government backed money seemed unattainable. Fast forward to today. In just 11 years, Bitcoin has become the closest thing the world has seen to a free market monetary system.

"All #Bitcoin needs in order to win is greed and reckless government spending." @BMBernstein believes neither are going away any time soon. #Bitcoin2019

2. Money Printing + Global Instability = BTC Bonanza! @BMBernstein makes a simple, clear point that more or less all of our gabbing about short term price action misses the larger context poised to drive Bitcoin mega adoption: the rush to print money and global instability.

The key to Bitcoin’s mass adoption starts with education. After more than a year of educating my mom about Bitcoin, she’s finally convinced... so much so that today I walked into a conversation of her explaining it to my grandmother. #Bitcoinmom #Bitcoingrandmom

Early stage crypto has become completely incestuous: this is the CELR ICO page - $30m spread out over > 48 firms - At least 5 other ICOs investing. Those same VCs invested in those ICOs too... This does two things:

$BTC: Introducing @coinmetrics' brand new transaction volume estimates. (Shoutout to @nic_carter, @khannib, and @jacobfranek for the data.) A thread on why it is so beautiful, at least from an analyst's perspective... 1/ Velocity—a.k.a. inverse NVT ratio (7-day median smooth):

Goal for 2019: Write 5 long essays. And guess what... essay #1 is done! It's called "What the Hell is Going On?" It's about commerce, education, and politics, and how shifts in information flow are transforming each of those parts of society. perell.com/blog/what-the-hel…

Replying to @KyleSamani
This is the problem with most crypto applications. They’re products created by founders who have hypothetical solutions to hypothetical problems for people far far away (ie not them) The founders aren’t the target market of any of the products being created

Once their need for trust minimization (which varies greatly depending on their political circumstances) outweighs the risks from Bitcoin's greater volatility, they will start to switch -- the ones with the greatest such needs much sooner than the ones with the least, naturally.
