0/ Predictions for 2021:
(This is not investment advice, or any other type of advice. DYOR)

1/ #ETH hits new ATH(s).
2/ #Bitcoin breaks $55K; but BTC YE2021 close is < $30K.
wins!
3/ > 3 billion-dollar crypto IPOs successfully occur (eg CoinBase, BlockFi, et al).
4/ @SBF_Alameda’s ‘off-chain BTC folding’ strategy goes unnoticed; whole crypto ecosystem wins!
5/ @jpmorgan @Citibank @GoldmanSachs begin to spec @compoundfinance-like platforms for CBDC cross-FX & borrowing/lending.
6/ Meta-aggregators like @iearnfinance @yaxis_project @Harvest_finance become mainstream and pave retail’s DeFi entry.
7/ @AndreCronjeTech absorbs more projects; mixed success continues.
8/ @SergeyNazarov bequeaths a non-profit Chainlink oracle to @YFlinkio for #Linkswap— $1500/YFL floor is set.
9/ @CurveFinance looses market leadership of stable coin swaps to @1inchExchange; 1inch may be further unseated; 🤷🏼‍♂️.
10/ Biden = good for crypto.
11/ @Harvest_finance allocates >20% of weekly “strategic reserve” to $GRAIN/$FARM liquidity providers. Or not and 20% TVL disappears.
12/ @Keeper_DAO‘s $ROOK is used for something interesting.
13/ #Banksy & other mainstream artists enter the crypto art NFT space. TRUE degeneracy ensues.
14/ @BadgerDAO’s $BADGER never < $3; $DIGG becomes $AMPL for BTC Maxis.
15/ We the knights of 0x_b1 will continue to tirelessly work to accelerate the real world applicability of DeFi in ways we think we can.
Externalities, people.
16/ DYOR. Never forget: DeFi is Degen.

Michael Pettis @michaelxpettis argues that it is not always obvious who (China or the U.S.) adjusts best to "turbulent changes."
Bitcoin answers that question.
Thread:


World economies currently suffer four major redistribution challenges:
The most important is increasing government stealth use of the monetary system to confiscate assets from productive actors.
/2

That process is exacerbated by "Cantillon Effect" transfers to interest groups close to government ("the entitled class," public sector workers, the medical industrial complex, academia, etc....), which is destroying much of that wealth /3

The shadow nature (see Keynes) of government inflation makes the process unidentifiable, un-addressable and undemocratic.
The biggest victims (America's poorly educated young) are unequipped to counter generational confiscation tactics of today's wily senior beneficiaries. /4

Government control of the numéraire in key economic statistics (GDP, inflation, etc...) makes it impossible for economic actors to measure progress and liabilities. /5
