We’ve got 6 companies with a trillion dollar market cap, and one of them is a relatively small car company.

    Imagining a Borges story about a company that produced almost nothing but so many people invested in it that held the economy hostage and so it eventually took the place of "the economy" insofar as people put their money in and out of it to reflect the vicissitudes of the market. And then eventually it took control of the world, and people continued to buy and share its stock. Your role in democracy was just a straightforward shareholder's vote, etc.

        Absolutely, especially when BTC rises and falls with TSLA because of Tesla accepting it or buying bitcoins and whatnot

          Amazing. We truly live in the dumbest timeline.

            I could kill bitcoin forever.

            All I would have to do is invest heavily into it and it would crash forever.

            I am not ready to make this sacrifice.
