    Fox News passes on Bitcoin stories because "It wont play with Poor African-Americans"

    Posted: 15 Jun 2021 06:31 PM PDT

    On the latest Project Veritas video Ivory Hecker leaks video conversations between her and her boss, Lee Meier, Assistant News Director.

    In one of the clips, Lee Meier says "I may say, yeah and Bitcoin for a poor African-American audience at 5(pm), its probably not going to play"

    Also, "I have passed on dozens of Bitcoin stories"

    Here we have yet another example of the Media creating FUD around Bitcoin. We have lots of examples on how the media uses double speak, saying something and then saying the opposite, like stories about how Bitcoin is good, then Bitcoin is bad.

    I would like to take this moment to point out that the media also lies by omission. Purposefully not reporting on, likely, positive stories about Bitcoin. I am going to take a lead and assume that the "dozens of stories" that she passed on were Positive stories regarding Bitcoin.

    I would also like to make another assumption; Lee has a directive to not let African-Americans know about bitcoin. They want to keep Bitcoin a secret from as many people as possible right now. It seems really F*cked up to specifically target African-Americans for anything let alone Bitcoin.

    Here her argument is that poor black people are not interested in Bitcoin. Poor people are the ones who need Bitcoin the MOST! They want to keep black people poor, and deny them the knowledge of Bitcoin and its financial opportunities.

    Im not trying to make this political so I will not address the rest of the videos topics. Positive information regarding Bitcoin is being omitted from poor people. We need to continue to tell our friends and family about the financial benefits of investing some capital into Bitcoin. Its still early and we all know that, so help your friends and families become familiar with Bitcoin and Blockchain technology.

    If they ask you questions you dont know the answers to then you have some learning to do too. Educate yourself and then follow back up with them. This subreddit is a great place to ask questions as well because you will get good information from the community.

    Cheers.

    Please take care of your mental health

    Posted: 16 Jun 2021 12:30 AM PDT

    I was constantly checking the price and it was bumming me out. I reminded myself I'm in it for the long run and I haven't checked on the price in 2 days and I feel much better. I know about the price in general from reading the news but not checking the spot price has been good for my mental health.

    Bitcoin is a one time per sentient species event: what does digital scarcity mean, Bitcoin's "Je Ne Sais Quoi," and the first and only digital land grab

    Posted: 16 Jun 2021 01:04 AM PDT

    Prior to the first Bitcoin block and the absolute scarcity that the network introduced to the world, every single object or resource in the physical realm had no absolute cap of availability. But now we have Bitcoin, the first truly scarce "thing" known to man. And it just happens to be digital. Yet, what does this actually mean--an absolutely scarce digital thing?

    Well in my view, it is something that can happen only once.

    Here is a hacked together logical proof replete with logical errors and random commentary:

    PROOF:

    1.) Absolute scarcity is not possible in the physical realm (barring extinction of living creatures and plant life of course).

    2.) Therefore, absolute scarcity can only occur in the digital realm.

    3.) Since absolute scarcity can only occur in the digital realm, what is it about the digital realm that allows that scarcity? With adequate security, computers have the ability to execute immutable rules.

    4.) Given that all computers with adequate security can execute immutable rules, what differentiates Bitcoin from ETH, Shibacoin, Fortnite V-Bucks, Fedcoin, or RuneScape party hats?

    5.) Bitcoin is a decentralized consensus based P2P open source network with absolute scarcity as its founding principle. All of those other digital tokens are subject to the whims of their owners with varying degrees of centralization and unpredictability.

    Still, this isn't quite satisfying, is it? After all, couldn't this sub just make a new bitcoin called "hodlcoin" with a 3.1 million coin limit, using exactly the same software as the bitcoin protocol. Yep! Could every sub on reddit do the same thing? Yep! Then we would have a trillion new coins floating around with 3.1 million coin limits for each sub protocol (dibs on WSBcoin) and some of the protocols would probably even be decentralized.

    So what is that extra "je ne sais quoi" about Bitcoin that makes it unique? Bitcoin is both a discovery and an invention. Satoshi invented Bitcoin and discovered absolute scarcity in the process as a byproduct (the potential for which always existed in the digital realm). This is why absolute scarcity cannot be replicated. The discovery has been made.

    Interestingly enough, this also aligns with what the world needs. The world only needs 1 absolutely scarce digital asset because Bitcoin can effectively store decillions of dollars of USD value right now. The price of a bitcoin in USD is essentially meaningless to the network.

    So then, what does all this word salad mean? Pretty simple really. This is the age of the digital land grab. Those who understand Satoshi's discovery earliest will be the landed gentry of tomorrow. Those who don't, serfs servicing the robots that replaced them for one years salary.
