Did Albert Einstein accidentally discover Bitcoin… or have I officially lost it?I know, obviously Einstein didn’t literally invent Bitcoin. But what he did discover about measurement might be the clearest way to understand what’s broken about fiat money...and why Bitcoin is the first real candidate for a monetary constant.In this video we connect: • Einstein’s relativity • Money’s “relativity problem” • Why a changing denominator distorts the entire economy • Why Bitcoin’s fixed terminal supply makes it a serious contender for the first true monetary constant.By the end, you’ll either think I landed the plane, or that I’m two pizzas short of a full Laszlo.Value 4 Value: If you enjoyed this content feel free to zap me some sats via the lightning network: [email protected] or https://coinos.io/thesatstackerNYKNYC.
