題目: Re: [unSYSTEM] Peter Thiel
I guess there is planet silicon valley, where things like the
singularity and digital immortality rule the memescape, and everyone
has a few billion dollars to throw at their favorite transhumanist
project and the time to burn on soirres and canapes and burning man.

Then there is the rest of the world, where gas at the pump costs
money, fresh food takes time to prepare right, and we are all going to
die someday.

Planet Silicon Valley is a court society, with all the benefits and
costs that implies.

Most users of bitcoin can safely ignore it. The real world, far from
the court, is going to dominate how it gest used.
