Guy's Take_086 - Fiat Waste
People look around and they see a wasteful world. They see endless, mindless consumption. Increasingly, we see people fearing the future rather than hoping for it.
I'm going to make the case today that in order to realign this, money must be the most valuable good in society. And necessarily, it must be the hardest thing to produce and that we actually can know this because of where the value of money comes from and what the money is in relation to the society that uses it. I want you to come away from the end of this episode realizing that not only is it aligned to have a sound money that grows in value, but it is necessary for us to value the future of our society in the first place. So we're going to take this show to go back to our Fiat World Series with Fiat Waste. It's time for a Guy's Take episode.

Reboot - Invalid Blocks Need Not Apply
Ideas and ways of thinking are much like paths in the wood. When we explore them often they are well worn and clearly defined. But often we get lost exploring other ideas or focused on something we hope to see in the future, and even the paths we know well get ignored, and the brush starts to creep back in. The noise of the world begins to obscure what was once an obvious truth. This is why its good to refresh important ideas from time to time. To walk those paths again, to remind ourselves of the perspectives that got us here.
Today we dive into a reboot of a very important idea in grasping why Bitcoin works, and how it emerges from the individual enforcement of the Bitcoin rules, and how utterly revolutionary this seemingly simple concept really is. If you haven't heard it, today's episode will fix that terrible tragedy for you. So hit play and enjoy.

TPR_002 - From Local to Global with Holesail
"I believe that hole punch stack can be a really good alternative to static IPs. That way, for example, you want to access your camera from anywhere, you don't really need a static IP. You don't need to pay for that. You don't need to take all those security risks. All you need to do is boot up Holesail or a similar service built on Holepunch to connect peer to peer directly to your computer only to that specific port. That's it. You are connected to it. There are no middle men. And nothing is exposed to the public."
In this episode, Guy Swann interviews Suryaansh Singh AKA Supersu about the transformative potential of peer-to-peer technology in reshaping how we connect and interact online, and how they are working to build towards this with Holesail. They delve into the challenges and innovations in deploying decentralized systems that enhance security and user control, discussing how such technologies can fundamentally alter the internet landscape towards a more user-empowered framework. How can peer-to-peer technology reconfigure our digital interactions and what are the broader implications for internet privacy and connectivity?

Read_823 - Scaling Trust
"This capability ensures that participants can trust the system's integrity without the need for mutual trust among users. It fundamentally alters how trust is brokered globally, extending the reach of reliable transactions beyond traditional, geographic, and institutional boundaries."~ Adolfo Contreras
In this episode of Bitcoin Audible, Guy Swann delves into an insightful article from Blockstream titled "Scaling Trust: Bitcoin's Role in Bridging the Global Digital Divide" by Adolfo Contreras. How does Bitcoin redefine trust in a globalized digital world, and what potential does it hold for transforming financial systems, especially in developing countries? Join Guy as he explores the fundamental elements of trust, the evolution of financial institutions, and the revolutionary impact of blockchain technology.Check out the original article at Scaling Trust: Bitcoin’s Role in Bridging the Global Digital Divide (Link: https://tinyurl.com/333rzvkj)

Read_822 - Denial of Service Attack on Consensus [Re-post]
Apologies for the repost, had some technical difficulties migrating the podcast to a new host.
"It is like exercising a veto you hold for anything and everything, and yes, vetoes are important in consensus systems. But disrupting conversation is not the veto, the actions of actual transacting economic actors deciding what software to run or not run is the veto. This denial of service on dialogue is not some noble or righteous crusade to save Bitcoin, it is an active attack on those economic actors and their ability to gain a better understanding to make an informed decision on whether to veto something or not."~ Shinobi
Today we dive into the contentious arena of Bitcoin consensus and the dialogue around it. Reading an insightful piece by Shinobi from Bitcoin Magazine, we explore the alarming trend of "denial of service attacks" on meaningful discussion within the Bitcoin community. Is this a calculated attack to silence new ideas, a necessary friction to maintain the integrity of Bitcoin's foundational principles, or is it an unavoidable consequence of Bitcoin's success? Listen as Guy offers his insights and invites you to judge the merit of open dialogue in the face of technological conservatism.

Read_821 - The Most Important Thing You'll Read This Year [Re-post]
Apologies for the repost, I had some technical difficulties migrating the podcast to a new host.
"The U.S. Government spends in a budgetary deficit, then issues treasuries to pay for the spending, then, at a bigger rate than anybody else, buys the treasuries to cover the loss. An unbelievable Ponzi scheme. The U.S. Government is the director of the Ponzi scheme, the old investor, and the new investor. A true masterclass."~ Cole Walmsley
Today we tackle the intricacies of fiscal irresponsibility through a Twitter thread by Cole Walmsley. As the U.S. government’s deficit spending spirals into what can only be accurately described as a “masterclass Ponzi scheme,” listeners are beckoned to question: How long can this last? With the state of national debt, the illusion of monetary stability, and the inevitable downfall of fiat currencies, are we witnessing the death throes of the dollar, and can a new monetary system rise from the chaos?
