By the time its cheaper to mine gold gold and bring it back to earth, I don't think wealth or money will make much of a difference. | r/bitcoin | Are you joking about the asteroid mining?

Brad Sherman has no idea.
The US dollar is the global reserve, but it has little to do with the US government. The government has the "power" to borrow, and be fiscally irresponsible... but the dollar *isn't theirs*.
From [The International Monetary System'. Forty Years After Bretton Woods](https://www.bostonfed.org/-/media/Documents/conference/28/conf28.pdf) - Proceedings of a Conference Held in May 1984 Sponsored by the Federal Reserve Bank of Boston
>**In spite of the Gold Reserve Act of 1934, the United States was not really on a gold standard**. The essence of the gold standard is that the money supply must be limited by the gold reserve. **The last time that the Federal Reserve tightened monetary policy because the gold reserve ratio fell close to the legal minimum was in March 1933**. Since then, whenever the gold reserve neared the legal minimum, the required reserve ratio was reduced and finally eliminated entirely. **A country that loses more than half of its gold reserve, as the United States did in 1958-71, without reducing the money supply is not on the gold standard**.
>**What happened in August 1971 was the abandonment of the anomoly of dollar convertibility into gold when the United States was not on a gold standard**.
Just want to emphasize this. 1971 was a late political acknowledgement (a leftover *anomaly*/artifact to be cleaned up). The US was not on a gold standard (and arguably wasn't even before 1933).
That part about "without reducing the money supply"?
...well.... now onto global monetary expansion *without central bank/US Gov't involvement*:
>The pressures causing some currencies persistently to strengthen, and others to weaken, in response to their differences in economic performance, were exacerbated by the unusual dependence on the dollar. **For from the early sixties onward there was virtually no control over the worldwide supply and use of dollars.** The "dollar shortage" of the fifties was becoming the "dollar glut" of the sixties.
The "eurodollar" or "shadow banking" system arose by the 1950s. It's really just a wholesale global banking market. By the 60s, banks in the US were increasingly borrowing from offshore vs. obtaining "funding" from the Fed. Offshore funding allowed banks to bypass restrictions (like reserve requirements).
>**It appeared impossible for the United States to maintain effective control over the supply of dollars at home and abroad simply by following the old rules of the gold standard game**--i.e., by maintaining a surplus in its external current accounts.
Can also be said of Fed Funds, reserve levels/QE and QT.
>The urgent needs for capital expansion around the world attracted the expertise of *rapidly developing multinational companies*, many of them based in the United States, and all of them drawing on additional dollars to finance their desired growth.
*Companies/corporations* not governments or central banks.
>Capital outflows from the United States, spurred by direct investment from within and **substantial borrowings from without**, began to flood the world with an apparent excess of dollar liquidity-despite the absorption of liquidity that might have been expected from the large current account surplus of the United States. **Central banks abroad found themselves with what became an "overhang" of dollars in their foreign exchange reserves.**
There are numerous examples of Fed chairs lamenting their inability to even measure the money supply. Other countries realized long before that *private sector generated* USD funding had taken off. An "Overhang" in exchange reserves is a mild way to put it.
>**One improvisation after another was attempted in order to preserve or restore confidence in the credibility of the dollar as a reliable standard of value and medium of exchange capable of assuring stability in the payments relations throughout an expanding world.** A **""gold pool" among leading central banks**, initiation of a "ring of swaps" between the dollar and a dozen or more other currencies, creation of U.S. dollar obligations denominated in foreign currencies, the introduction of an Interest Equalization Tax and other measures to deter capital outflows--all these were part of an effort to sustain the dollar while also building a network of closer joint involvement with other countries in maintaining currency arrangements that could serve the best interests of all. **But this combination of improvisations could not cope with, and indeed may have contributed to, the enormous expansion in markets for U.S. dollars offshore**, and the **new networks of interbank relations** that **made possible the creation of additional supplies of dollars outside the United States and beyond the control of the Federal Reserve**.
The global dollar market *is the dollar*. It has very little to do with the Fed, or congress, or anything like that. The US' influence is limited to operating the "most free" markets available (they don't, and cannot discern whether a dollar was generated offshore or not).. which allows for global dollar creation/destruction/circulation by commercial banks.

That's what I would call historical revisionism. Before 1971, "oh yes, the dollar is absolutely a gold-backed currency, and it's important everybody believe that". After 1971 "oh it wasn't even ever a gold standard anyway, so fiat is cool now and always was".
> but the dollar *isn't theirs*.
Haha I mean you can believe that if you want to but I'm not sure how it's useful to see the world that way. Seems pretty trivial to falsify: Say Congress issues a CBDC, dissolves the Fed and drops the dollar. Loads of reasons why they wouldn't do this, but as an exercise it should reveal the truth of the matter: Do you think the eurodollar would persist at that point? It's a faith based system. It exists because of social consensus. Global trade means a global money will emerge and, over time, the least-worst money system will be selected.
Ok, so I gave a pretty extreme example there, maybe hard to imagine that actually being carried out. But are we just going to pretend Congress banning Russia from SWIFT was not a thing? Of course it's theirs. In our world there is no greater 'state of exception' than the US Congress deciding to make up new rules. At least while we live in a monopolar world. Very tempted to say "bitcoin fixes this" here, but it would be more tongue in cheek than true, at least so far.
> In giving up control over their denomination, they have gained the ability to borrow irresponsibility from a dollarized world.

The fed is smarter than you give them credit for. Congress has decided they will spend more money each and every year than taxes provide. And the fed has made that work for more than 50 years.
Recently we’ve had years where inflation was higher than the interest rates paid on the debt. That evaporated the debt, poof, into thin air.
You keep your money in a matress and you’re going to have a bad time. But any investment that returns more than inflation, including BTC, or VOO, or currently a HYSA and you’re safe, and the US government can spend more money on Social Security, Medicare, and Tanks. | r/bitcoin | The fed is smarter than you give them credit for.

>That's what I would call historical revisionism
It ain't revisionism. It's recognition of mechanical reality, instead of clinging to an ideal that was essentially dead on arrival. Per the same quote:
>A country that loses more than half of its gold reserve, as the United States did in 1958-71, without reducing the money supply is not on the gold standard.
You can go back further and look at the impact of Canadian bond lending to American banks (continental dollars) pre-1933 to demonstrate that there was no "real" control via a farcical gold standard from the get go.
>Say Congress issues a CBDC, dissolves the Fed and drops the dollar. Loads of reasons why they ~~wouldn't~~ *couldn't* do this,
Fixed it. A CBDC misunderstands what the dollar is. The US needs dollars to spend in its own economy. It gets those dollars from global commercial banks. These global commercial banks can create dollars when they lend. Suddenly switching to a a CBDC would undermine the ability of global banks to do what they do (and politicians have no desire to assume that role).
They would much rather give the commercial banks the monopoly on dollar extension/creation in exchange for obligating a select few of them to buy the treasuries debt issuance.
>Do you think the eurodollar would persist at that point? It's a faith based system. It exists because of social consensus. Global trade means a global money will emerge and, over time, the least-worst money system will be selected.
Why do you think the eurodollar was selected then? Because it wasn't a top down imposition either.
>But are we just going to pretend Congress banning Russia from SWIFT was not a thing?
SWIFT is just a messaging service. Russian banks are still transacting in dollars through correspondent relationships. Just makes it a bit harder (ok, exaggerating a little - but it's still not a robust revocation of dollar usage). SWIFT ban is political theatre.
The US can make some aspects of dollar intermediation a pain for folks, but they certainly *do not* control the use/creation/destruction of dollars globally. | r/bitcoin | >That's what I would call historical revisionism
It ain't revisionism. It's recognition of mechanical reality, instead of clinging to an ideal that was essentially dead on arrival. Per the same quote:
>A country that loses more than half of its gold reserve, as the United States did in 1958-71, without reducing the money supply is not on the gold standard.
You can go back further and look at the impact of Canadian bond lending to American banks (continental dollars) pre-1933 to demonstrate that there was no "real" control via a farcical gold standard from the get go.
>Say Congress issues a CBDC, dissolves the Fed and drops the dollar. Loads of reasons why they ~~wouldn't~~ *couldn't* do this,
Fixed it. A CBDC misunderstands what the dollar is. The US needs dollars to spend in its own economy. It gets those dollars from global commercial banks. These global commercial banks can create dollars when they lend. Suddenly switching to a a CBDC would undermine the ability of global banks to do what they do (and politicians have no desire to assume that role).
They would much rather give the commercial banks the monopoly on dollar extension/creation in exchange for obligating a select few of them to buy the treasuries debt issuance.
>Do you think the eurodollar would persist at that point? It's a faith based system. It exists because of social consensus. Global trade means a global money will emerge and, over time, the least-worst money system will be selected.

As soon as Mr. Sherman says he is willing to sell all his current investments and assets, exchange them for USD, deposit in a CD, and keep the money there (and all future funds he may receive) while he is a Congressman, I will believe that he genuinely believes what he is saying is true.
Change all your assets into USD while you are a Congressman, sir, and put your USD where your mouth is.
Oh wait, it's not fun watching your net worth melt away via inflation? Like all people in the US who don't have assets, and just keep getting poorer and poorer as prices rise and wages can't keep up? Would that not be so much fun for you, Mr. Fiat bro?

I mean basically what he's saying is that because the world treats USD as the reserve currency, that is the ONLY reason why it hasn't been downgraded and a bunch of other bad stuff. Which is definitely true. So it's not like he's lying haha, he's telling the truth.
As soon as the world finally decides to not give the USD this privileged position in the world, everything is going to start toppling. US credit rating would get smashed, inflation would skyrocket, and so on, which are obviously bad things nobody wants.
So I mean I get why he hates Bitcoin, because Bitcoin, being a global hard currency, is going to eventually, once it gets to the level of adoption of being a globally used currency, is going to make the USD look realllllllll bad in comparison and all the other countries that treat USD as the global reserve even though its not their own currency, it's gonna make a lot more sense to switch from USD to BTC. This guy has just made the conscious choice from very early on in Bitcoin's journey that we should keep going on the unsustainable path to monetary collapse and allow no alternatives instead of letting the people have this way out. Govt doesn't have a way out of course, the monetary collapse is inevitable, but the people have an exit for their own finances thanks to Bitcoin. And he just wants the people to be stuck in the same mess the govt has made for itself. And that is why he's awful. I get his reasoning, but he's intentionally supporting bad goals to try to keep the broken system propped up longer by not allowing people to have a way out. Choosing broken govt system over giving the people a chance when the broken govt system does collapse, and it WILL collapse eventually.
Basically it's like we're all in a burning house, and he wants to block the exit and instead hand out damp washcloths so we all survive a bit longer in the house before it burns us down inside it. While anyone rational sees we need that BTC exit since there is nothing that is gonna stop the house from burning down. | r/bitcoin | I mean basically what he's saying is that because the world treats USD as the reserve currency, that is the ONLY reason why it hasn't been downgraded and a bunch of other bad stuff.

I've been tossing up which way to store mine and my top three ideas atm are:
1: Creating an single player minecraft world and travelling in one direction for a few thousand blocks then building the phrases into the landscape in a way that you can only see them from the sky with a max sized map, this alone would take an hour or so to fill and you would need to know where to start
2: Having a series of saves on a pokemon ROM (Crystal would be my favorite so going with that), where The seed phrases are hidden as the old trainer names of pokemon I trade to myself then win the pokemon league with, so I need to look at the hall of fame to see the corresponding pokemon to then see its old trainer to know the seeds
3: In factorio having a spaghetti world where everything is confusion but having a series of receiver chests amongst it that get populated by a series of logistics robots that are only activated when I flick a switch, and each chest has an item limit corresponding to a letter of the alphabet to spell out my phrases
Which of these works best, or do you have any suggestions yourself? | r/bitcoin | I've been tossing up which way to store mine and my top three ideas atm are:
