Should you invest in Polygon (Matic)?

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

An article worth thinking about: \u201cAs changes to the world structure accelerate, China\u2019s rule is in sharp contrast with the turmoil in the West,\u201d says Beijing.

You are running out of time to get ahead in cryptocurrency.
You know what's coming:
🔺️ Regulation
🔺️ More shutdowns
🔺️ Banks deciding who gets to do business
It's time you got your own crypto wallet.
Don't know how? I'll show you.

METAMASK
What's metamask? It's a wallet. That you -- I mean YOU -- own.
You see, when you buy crypto through an exchange like CoinBase, you own it but only kind of.
If they get
🔺 Hacked
🔺 Shutdown
🔺 Servers crash
-- your money is STUCK.
We are gonna avoid that 👇
First thing,
Go to
https://t.co/JXAp9o5RzJ
You can download it on your computer. It's a browser extension.
Alternatively, go to the app store on your Android or iPhone. It's there too.
As part of the setup process, you will choose a password.
More importantly though...
SEED PHRASE
As you follow the setup process, you will be given a 12-word seed phrase.
WRITE. THIS. DOWN.
Take it down and guard it like the map to Davey Jones' Locker.
THESE ARE THE ONLY WAY TO RECOVER YOUR ACCOUNT.
DO NOT LOSE.
We good? Great.
Let's continue.
Once you're all setup, your MetaMask wallet is going to look something like the picture below.
See where it says Crypto Address? That's where your actual address will be.
It'll be a random arrangement of letters, numbers, etc.
