TD₿: Bitcoin: The Lifeboat in a Sinking Economic System - (21 Voices, a new video series) with Jason Maier
TL;DR: Bitcoin is a tool to reshape society, offering hope for a broken economic system, reducing war incentives, and fostering fairness.
Hey Bitcoiners,
Jason Meyer, a math teacher and author, explains that Bitcoin can lead to long-term thinking, promote sustainability, and empower individuals and nations by offering financial sovereignty. The conversation also touches on Bitcoin’s energy use, its role in reducing war incentives, and its potential to reshape politics and global economies for a fairer future.
Bitcoin is a transformative tool that challenges the current monetary system, which relies on endless debt and inflation. Bitcoin offers an alternative by providing hard, scarce money that cannot be printed at will, forcing more responsible financial decisions.
Enjoy!

Hut 8 Corp. has expanded its partnership with BITMAIN to launch the U3S21EXPH, a next-generation ASIC Bitcoin miner featuring direct liquid-to-chip cooling technology.
