601 sats \ 7 replies \ @justin_shocknet 17h \ on: Bitcoin Is All Over CNBC bitcoin
I skim their YouTube every evening and find Bitcoin is regularly one of the most common topics for years at this point, presumably because it drive clicks/views (and game theory). It's right up there with Tesla FUD, Fed speculation, and Mag7 circle jerks...
But... I did catch something particularly interesting yesterday. One of the more insufferable regulars, that could probably never appreciate Bitcoin for what it is, had what I'd consider a capitulatory tone in calling the goings on a flywheel, benefiting everybody, and a money machine
The game theory is playing out perfectly.

This is where I land. Some mistake it for cheerleading. I'm not a fan or supporter of what many people do... but they are gonna do it. Human nature is a thing. Greed, fear, and sociopaths don't stop existing because we have bitcoin.

Yep, and to take it even a step further, those reasons are why Bitcoin had to be created in the first place.

Indeed. Systems that require good moral people to work are failed from the start. A system, a money needs to account for human nature with all of its flaws.
