.@ore is hard money for a digital age. ⛏️ Every token has to be mined, only 3 million will ever exist, and the ability to mint more has been permanently destroyed onchain. Not even the team can undo it. Mined by anyone. Capped by code.

Buyers buy PRL because it's a hard money with a credible path to being the energetically hardest money. Inference providers mine PRL because it is extra revenue to offset infra and electricity costs. If the flywheel plays out the money gets harder, demand goes up, and more energy is unlocked for mining. It's a loop. Doesn't require any fancy compute network priced in PRL -- that's a bonus if it happens. The main pieces here are mining with low or no extra capex and opex, and do people value hard money or not.

JACK MALLERS: We are living through the demonetization of fiat money and the remonetization of hard money. Be energized by the opportunity to live through such historic change.

Is there anyone on here who believes that we are in a fiscal dominance regime that is NOT Deeply committed/invested/earns a professional paycheck/etc in gold/btc/crypto/hard money? Upton Sinclair quote.

first time i ever bought crypto bitcoin was like $3,000, it was trading at $20,000 a few months later, it’s in the cards something similar happens with zcash over the next 12-18 months thesis of hard money + private sov has never been stronger, & there is a very strong core holder base formed over the past decade that does not have any short term targets for selling this thing

UPDATE: The price of a dozen eggs... 🥚 TL;DR Groceries are still expensive. A dozen eggs costs 63% more in US dollars than it did ten years ago, $2.27 vs $1.39. Now measure the same dozen in hard money: • In gold, it's 47% cheaper (about 0.00056 oz, down from 0.00106 oz). • In bitcoin, it's 99% cheaper (about 2,850 sats, down from 226,000). Young people aren't wrong to be angry today. Wages paid in a debasing currency can't keep up with a basket of goods that only gets more expensive. Prices aren't really going up. The dollar is going down.... It is constantly and methodically being debased. The fancy word for it is #inflation#. Learn the difference between price and value. Then decide what you want to measure your life in. Source: (BLS average price, eggs, Grade A large, US city average, via FRED.
