Show Notes

“Fiat money is a positivist money, a tool of governments pursuing a utopian vision. Bitcoin is a Natural Law money, a tool to protect individual liberty. Bitcoin is therefore the more moral money.” - Jimmy Song

There is the economic case, there is the individual sovereignty case, & there is an investment case for Bitcoin. But the deepest case to be made, & the one with the strongest argument, is the moral case. It’s not merely profits, sound economics, or the potential of future growth that make Bitcoin the proper investment, but the moral truths that make Bitcoin the only real option for a better future. Today we read Jimmy Song’s excellent piece from The Bitcoin Time Vol 3, “The Moral Case for Bitcoin.
