Issue #88 - How much money printing is too much?
When do people start to save in bitcoin?
Hola 👋
Thank you for reading. Welcome.
Another exciting week in the land of Bitcoin.
Living here in Berlin, on a volcano, where we have over 100 businesses accepting bitcoin, is a real experience. One that we are learning is hard to replicate in other places. Even in El Salvador.
Have a great week.

$2 Million a Minute in Interest
If you needed a reason to Bitcoin, this could be it. This interest is extra money that is created with out actually adding any real value to the economy.
The extra money devalues the purchasing power of existing money.
The way to protect yourself is with hard assets. Bitcoin is the Store of Value asset.
