this means that preserving short term liquidity is different than preserving equity e.g. if i think 1 bitcoin is worth 50k of work toasting avocados, NOONE can touch my crystallized avocado blood sweat and tears

vs say i trade my avocado tears for 50k dollars. i go into cryosleep and wake up. now i can only buy one avocado for 50k my equity stake in the dollars was diluted so my purchasing power was obliterated

so if i really really really think 1 bitcoin is worth 50k, it is the BEST thing i can buy however if i am making expectations of market behavior, then i can easily wile out all my liquid assets

and this is hard. bitcoin has no actual value and is not a productive asset that yields. it is primarily a “perfect” safe haven. (though in the coming years it will likely act as a rapidly appreciating high vol asset bc such a thing has never existed and is desired)

tldr bitcoin is like your SO, it’s a love hate relationship but at least u always have each other. fiat is like a coworker u talk to in the same professional range of dry topics day and day out while actually slowly becoming strangers
