Cryptomania and the Death of Money
2022 will mark my 9th year of involvement in the “crypto” ecosystem. It’s been a very strange ride that started with me day trading altcoins in college, ramped up to me dropping out of school to build my own project on Ethereum, and eventually led me back to being a Bitcoin-only investor and sound money advocate. Throughout these (nearly) 9 years I’ve witnessed multiple waves of growth in the ecosystem and an increasing amount of consumer speculation. Er… adoption. While each wave has its own...

Some Musings on Bitcoin Distribution — More and More Long-Term HODLers and Illiquid BTC
On December 14, 2021, the number of circulating BTC has exceeded the total of 18,900,000. Thus, more than 90% of the Bitcoin supply has already been issued. This means that from today to 2140, less than 10% of the total supply of Bitcoin remains to be issued. That’s less than 2,100,000 BTC. That’s not much when you consider that “only” 130 million users currently own Bitcoin and that the number of people on Earth is already 7.8 billion. This number is expected to continue to grow in the comin...
