Bifurcation of global economy into Knowledge Age vs. dying Fixed Capital Investment Age

CoinCube, an overshoot of socialist collapse is coming, that is precisely what I mean by a bifurcation of the economy and my assertion that Moldbug is incorrect because there can be two orthogonal currencies and economies. The Knowledge Age will be much smaller, but growing much faster in percentage terms than the socialism, potentially megadeath economy is shrinking in percentage terms. Vice versa on the nominal size change.

War is coming not because of anonymity, but because what Tragedy of Commons do when they collapse is they turn the citizens' attention away from their economic sacrifices to an ideological, patriotic, nationalism goal (delusion) of justice against an external nemesis, e.g. China and Japan are preparing to go to war, and NATO and Russia both have an incentive to go to war to deflect the attention away from the accelerating collapse of Europe and Russia. ISIS is the Muslim State turning against its enemies, which are external to the religion but internal geographically. The USA will also do the same once its economy collapses with internal fracturing external to competing ideologies, e.g. socialists versus traditional conservatives.

I know what was in your mind. You are thinking the government will go to war against anonymity. Hey they are already are. They are recording everything. They recently did a raid on 100s of Tor hidden services.

We are headed into massive chaos. One of the important goals is to get the anonymity programmed correctly. Tor, Bitcoin, Monero are not correct. As you may or may not have deduced, I am working on this. I am a (quite an exceptional one, if I may say so) programmer.



BitcoinFreak12 et al, I have a simple request. Please do not respond to blahblahblah. He is a communist, thus he doesn't understand, will never understand, and he even lies about the statistics as all good communists and socialists do.

Also you didn't include the cost of complying with regulations, which for example adds another 14% of the GDP in the USA (so roughly a 14% tax on average):

Pretty much if you live in a developed country, then 70 - 90% of your wealth is expropriated and pilfered by the combination of all those.

Also most of the FREE countries you listed are subsidized by oil, and their populations have been growing faster than the oil revenues, thus they eventually will become statist jails too.

Last but not least, you forgot to add the Civil Forfeiture Tax in the USA.
