I don't plan to take the mRNA vaccine or buy Bitcoin.
I don't either, but again, bad analogy. And a reverse one, at that. At least you can theoretically suggest that the science makes sense for the mRNA therapy, which it does. That doesn't mean that not robustly testing and watching what it does (as is usual) regarding Adverse Effects is a smart thing to do.

You appeal to some authority (Sims? Heckman?) who give clown non-answers and then think they are somehow answers.

I think Tesla should have a zero price, let's say. Who cares? Exactly, no one, because I don't analyze it and I have no skin in the game. Just like those two economists. You can't seem to get through your thick skull that market bubbles are known, and this is a technology that is innovative. And clearly desired by millions of people around the world - including people MUCH SMARTER (and FAR wealthier) than the two unknown academics you proffer to somehow mean something here with their opinions (which aren't even explained).

It's a good analogy in the sense that both the mRNA vaccine and Bitcoin are promoted as some whiz-bang technical thing that people need. To me and billions of other people, not millions, it doesn't matter what authorities say to promote the vaccine or what authorities say to denigrate Bitcoin.

So, to me and billions of others, the mRNA vaccine and Bitcoin are quite analogous. They are technological curiosities that are of no interest or relevance. All of the debates and who says what are just noise. When all is said in done, neither will be more than a historical footnote.

You've given no reasons why anybody should even think about Bitcoin. Based on what you've written, I'm more averse to Bitcoin than ever and I wouldn't touch it with a 100 foot pole.

Truth

It took a few billion to stabilize supply lines.

I trend the forensic side in it since if you treat one dollar different than more you are the if/then problem.

It is untouchable by governments in its essence. They can do NOTHING about its value.

LOL, well, of course. A monopoly over the money supply has been one of the basic powers of the state since money was invented. It's what we call "legal tender" in case your head has been too far in the sand to notice. Read all about it on the face of your Federal Reserve Note. At the moment, it's just propaganda; if Bitcoin become a serious threat to that monopoly, expect to see it outlawed.

Ukraine is what some call a KO battle in Go.

The problem with a Ko battle is that when you put your energy into it, a wise state will consolidate their infrastructure outside of it.

Hungry eyes for the tit of a beat down dumpster of Ukraine that is surviving through money laundering as a failed state ought to be obvious as a short play. Which is why the Soros crowd pushes on towards getting bitch slapped again.

The only reason Ukraine is an issue at this point is that some old fart in his depends blackmailed them and it's blackwashing the entire United States for what it has been under our repressive central bank fallacy.

If someone is asking you to look at Ukraine right now it is out of weakness of intellect and lacking in motivation to protect US interests.
The only problem the US has is there isn't a problem and people can get back to work.

The real issue with Ukraine is how to undermine the strength of last administration that was peaceful and productive so there is some idea of legitimacy to the present administration which is absurdist.

The only thing keeping the world from blowing up is table manners which BLM and Antifa are sorely lacking and they only destroy.
So if the US want's to make some kind of side show with a place that is identifiable to it like Baltimore or DC only it's another "country" is a
weak move and if anyone who is not a banker could look at it and say, this is weak pretending to be strong,
they would more likely take their baseball game out of Atlanta and act butt hurt,
and they forget that no one cares about their stupid baseball game in the first place.

Keep this in mind: war is just an excuse for bankers to take time to consolidate.

Maybe I can give a reason instead. If the dollar gets hyperinflation (which I think will happen) no other paper money is going to replace the dollar, because the other central banks have dollars as reserves and they print their own paper money like crazy also. Faith in all government/paper money will be lost. I think the highest probability replacement visible so far, is Bitcoin. With Bitcoin/Lightning you could replace the world financial system and have something far more cost effective, as digital signatures let computers do all the work. If you buy Bitcoin now it is like buying a cheap option on the possible next world reserve currency. If it pays off, it will be huge. If not, it is insurance that might help you sleep at night. It is definitely worth thinking about.

After the "Continental Dollar" got hyperinflation in the US Revolutionary War they put into the US Constitution that only gold and silver are legal tender so that hyperinflation mistake would not happen again. But so many generations later the people alive now don't see any problem with printing money. To me this is very much like the Generational Dynamics sort of things.

Just imagine telling this story after its crashed. Naked apes created 10 wooden buckets, all exactly the same. You toss your coins in the buckets. Whenever a bucket is more full the coins in the bucket are worth more. You are allowed to move your coins from bucket to bucket. That way if you see one bucket getting more full you can quickly move your coins there so they can be worth more. All the while the bankers extract transaction fees from moving coins between buckets.

Until.

They don't need a wall.
The Chicago Fed supports a statewide property tax because the resulting decrease in property values means property owners can't escape
thus inmates of Illinois.

ChargePoint Holdings Inc. (CHPT), which calls itself the world's largest network of EV charging stations in North America and Europe, was up 17% Wednesday. ChargePoint went public through reverse mergers with a special-purpose acquisition company, or SPAC, in March. It is up 179% over the past year, though down 32% in the year to date.

EVgo was also drawing fresh attention; it plans to go public in the second quarter through a $2.6 billion SPAC and owns and operates more than 800 charging locations in 67 major markets across 34 states.

Beyond ChargePoint and EVgo, companies including Beam GlobalBEEM.

#5. The Economy - will be crushed by heavy taxes, regulations, lockdowns and Woke Hate. The “Green New Deal” will force energy companies out of business and the cost of electricity will sky rocket. Onerous taxes & regulations will suffocate average people and smother business expansion. The private sector will be crushed. Nearly all new jobs will be government jobs. The economy will have to be propped up by trillions of dollars of government spending and money printing to the joy of Wall Street. Dependence on government for nearly everything will become the norm. Only compliant Sheep will be employed.

In July 1651 these three men, while visiting an elderly friend in Lynn, Massachusetts, were apprehended, tried, and given exorbitant fines for their religious practices. Friends paid the fines for Clarke and Crandall, but when Holmes learned of this he refused to allow them to pay his fine. Six weeks after trial he was taken to the whipping post in Boston and given 30 strokes, which were laid on so harshly that for weeks afterward Holmes could only sleep while on his knees and elbows.

The year after this punishment Holmes became the pastor of the Baptist church in Newport, and continuously held that position for 30 years, until his death in 1682. Holmes and his wife Katharine had nine known children, eight of whom survived to adulthood. He was an ancestor of United States President Abraham Lincoln.

It is his garden and would be wise to remember that.
