    So basically everything you do is Bitcoin, socializing, spending, literally everything about your life now.
    Wow, Brain de Legend, such an inspiration.

      If you don’t want to spend sats, you can equally contribute to the parallel system by simply accepting sats.

    I would be interested in your thoughts or ways of handling the taxes when disposing of BTC in the USA. The IRS wants taxes paid on cryptocurrencies and when the sale of BTC for goods or services they will want taxes because the BTC was 'disposed of' and causes a taxable event. Any thoughts on how this?

    Friend,
    I've been listening for a 49 minutes 32 seconds.
    Rentenmark - Rente is welfare check/cheque in central Europe. It only existed in Germany, because the government sought to use the socialists against the Catholics, by delegalising the Communist Party but funding revolution in Russia and Poland.
    Both the Catholics and socialists were illegal in the I Reich 1871-1918 but had limited privileges - the Catholics were allowed to exist if they were a political party and the socialists had the universities.
    Mises or Schumpeter didn't get tenure, because although they were educated civil servants, they weren't socialists. This is what we have today in Spain - socialist monarchy, based on violence.
    Back to the Rentenmark - welfare cheques backed by feudal mediaeval landowning class, who wanted to maintain their money but liked socialism as it made the people kind, nice, and "I feel good, we all feel good". The nobility hated the Church, capitalists, and peasants.
    I am a proud small capitalist! I'm fulfilling the will of Pope John Paul II. God save our Prophet of the Modern Times who loved Rothbard like a brother and sent private letters to him. They loved each other like brothers. The Pope praised Rothbard in official Church documents. Capitalism is Catholic doctrine - anathema to those who hate capitalism is our religion, is The Religion. God save the Pope!
    Firstly, the Allies forced the Rentenmark on Poland, because the German nationalist-liberals poured out propaganda, that once Silesia becomes Polish - the Polish monarchist-capitalist from the Kingdom of Poland, firstly will force a Russian-Orthodox tsar on them, which they didn't care about.
    Secondly, they just told the elvers - the welfare cheque recipients, who got cash on the 11th of the month - that Poland will cut welfare to Silesia. Greater Poland and Pommerania didn't care, but joined to support them. The pro-welfare strike was quelled in Greater Poland and Pommerania, even the Prussians hated the welfare Silesians, which shocked all of Poland as they were supposedly "EVANGELICAL LUTHERAN WARRIORS FOR CHRIST AND FATHERLAND".
    On the otherhand, across the traintracks on the Brynica river, in industrial beautiful capitalist European Sosnowiec, then part of the Russian train station, came Lenin and organised a socialist revolution, making the power of Sosnowiec, a 200,000 industrial village, because the tsars didn't want the proletariat, but the Polish Kingdom's government insisted, but the Tsar, who the peasants chose as their monarch in 1864, to the behest of the nobility and clergy had the final say as a Christian monarch.

    PS. I don't believe in bitcoin. I just listen to find fun facts. Thank you, PLEASE READ.
