George Pence on Nostr: I think you are misguided in assuming all other things will be measured against BTC. ...
I think you are misguided in assuming all other things will be measured against BTC. That's purely impossible and completely discounts all of history. We aren't primitive people who just started bartering and realized we needed a currency. We are transitioning gradually from an extremely complex, corrupt, mismanaged system with hundreds upon hundreds of years of precedent.
So as some of the other people replying have already helped me realize: we will be using our current system as a jumping off point for valuation of BTC as we transition toward a different future.
