Why humans 25,000 years ago were smarter than we are today

It turns out humans 25,000 years ago were smarter than we are today.

When moving away from a barter based, gift based, 'you owe me one' economy, and forming money for the first time, every single form of money that came into existence in every tribe on earth had an important quality, inherent scarcity.

Humans were smart enough to know that it is a stupid idea to make money out of something that someone else can just create out of nothing! So they evolved money from using rare stones to rare shells etc and eventually we ended up globally with gold.

Paper money

Today our human civilization have somehow decided that we should make money out of pieces of paper and digital entry credits that can be made without restriction, out of nothing. And not only that, but we have decided to put that power in a central group of unelected bankers, who's sole purpose at this point in time is to manipulate the price of money (interest rate), and print massive amounts of money (a.k.a. Quantitative easing) to stop their subsidiary banks going out of business!

This is just global stupidity, and will be looked back upon in history as some weird retarded anomaly of economics.

And that is why humans 25,000 years ago were smarter than we are today. Besides the people who own gold, silver and bitcoin of course!

This wave of fiat money is about to crash

Do not use (only) flash memory (SSD drives, hardware wallets, USB flash drives) for your precious private keys!

Flash memory is not a reliable medium for archives. Especially when there is no regular power. I have personal experience with usb flash drive not powered for weeks - one file became corrupted . (Read more here: Archiving private keys - TLDR version. ) You should always back up on paper and other mediums. Flash memory is prone to failure if it is not powered for weeks or more and if there are ionizing radiation When you write your precious private keys you should use technologies like Parchive and ZFS . And make several copies of your files. It's OK if you use your USB flash drive for another backup, but don't rely on it! Always back up on DVDs (even small files!), paper and online (after encryption with CPU and RAM intensive key derivative function like scrypt). Here is example of using the scrypt utility: $ sudo apt-get install scrypt $ scrypt enc -M 1073741824 -t 200 secret.txt encrypted.scrypt Do not use default values of "-M" and "-t", they...

Archiving private keys - TLDR version

0. Make multiple encrypted copies. On DVDs (they are better than CDs and Blu-Ray discs; DVD+R are better than DVD-R), paper, cloud services like DropBox, OneDrive, Google Drive, e-mail it to yourself and to your friends, use P2P storage services like MaidSafe, Storj and Sia , etc. 1. Use proper font when printing PGP encrypted keys on paper. 2. Flash memory (SSD, USB flash drives, hardware wallets) is less reliable when not powered regularly (i.e. every week). 3. Use error correction methods like Parchive and ZFS. 4. Print on paper or store on digital media only encrypted data. 5. Your encryption software should use CPU/RAM-intensive KDF (i.e. scrypt with secure options - do not use defaults! ). First, encrypt with scrypt and then encrypt it again with PGP (using different password!) in ASCII armor mode before print it (other methods like QR codes may not be reliable as multiple copies of the PGP ASCII armor). Do not use the same password for the PGP because it's easy to brute...
