Fair point, and it was interesting to learn about MZM Money supply, which I wasn't aware of. I really hope we reach some platonic ideal of decentralization and decentralized value in the future. However, I'm not sure that Bitcoin is the right vehicle for this, or that price targets are a good way to measure these developments. Advancements that make microloans easier to access for farmers in Peru or land ownership verifiable in rural Zambia are worth more to me than a lumbering deflationary asset class like Bitcoin. I also think this was the original "Satoshi vision," and having been in this space since before the hype started, it saddens me to see everything focused around price. IMO, price is a good measure only when it actually represents value created, and not speculation. On an unrelated note, I like what you're doing with hook.vc! I'd be interested to get your feedback on a project I'm working on for decentralized scientific publishing. (Especially given that you've been through the academic/PhD pipeline.) Do you have an email?
