Going through (some) bitcoin maximalist tweets is fun because it's like a time machine into ideas that most people have long since understood are incorrect but some still fervently believe. (Actual reality: seignorage is at most like 10-20% of govt revenue; even if all countries dollarized, govts would be able to fund almost as much war as they do today) https://x.com/knutsvanholm/status/1978384607599841418

People are never satisfied with what they have even if they have enough. If they can take more at lower expense to themselves vs. others, they will do it. That's basically war.
