Yes but the business will pivot to focus on USDC redemption, exchange, and KYC. DEX offers better prices for exchanges/yields and non-custodial wallets are preferable.

Drift velocity has everything to do with the discussion, which is why you brought it up. I’m familiar with Pauli exclusion principle I’ve worked on real semiconductors. Your last point is wrong, everything else you said is correct but it re

Electricity travels faster than the speed of electrons (which only travel at ~3 cm/s!), it travels proportional to the speed of light, it’s speed is instead described by the Poynting vector, an energy wave.

Shouldn’t occur in a positively inflationary recession. That is behavior that we would expect in a deflationary recession like the prelude to the 2008 period, 2007. If it goes to around 4%, I will start worrying.

I don’t believe there will be a recession due to the savings rate continuing to recover to normal levels [1]. Indeed, we see real revenues of all retailers increasing, e.g. Walmart, Target, Amazon, Costco, etc. [1] https://fred.s

On the other hand an MPC inhibitor like RCGD423 should reactivate the muscle stem cells [1]. For a similar reason an oral TZD (which are selective MPCi) should also help. [1] https://hscnews.usc.edu/small-molecule-could-make

Graeber’s model is refuted by the existence of pre-fiat currencies, the Wampum, the Chinese copper cowrie, and Bitcoin. Where Bitcoin is a currency but just deflationary like gold. Optimal currencies of course are inflationary or stable [1]
