They had already broken the Gold standard by that point, they just didn't admit to it. Right after confiscating Gold they revalued the dollar against it, going from $20.67 an Oz to $35 an Oz. It was the first visible crack, with WW2 increasing our Gold supply substantially the collapse of the Gold standard was postponed but we stopped being on the Gold standard the moment the first federal reserve notes started being printed.

Help the people around you, not strangers on the Internet.

If the red line happens this seems fine to me. Same growth, just more stable. This is good for the network.

I would argue 1913... (Federal Reserve Act)

That's awesome. 😁 Haven't done any serious hiking in a while, I need to get back into it.

People think Bitcoin will reach an upper market capacity like it ends someday. Bitcoin is a clock of value, does a clock ever stop? No. Bitcoin never stops growing in value, it'll surpass all Gold, all currency, all real estate, all stocks and bonds, all assets, everything. And it'll keep going, forever. We'll have no choice but to subdivide it regularly, adding decimals of division beyond the satoshi every few years. The cost of Bitcoin's production against time will never stop being adjusted, we will extend the halving cycle indefinitely, we will never stop mining new coins as the new mined amounts will just get ever smaller.

Lol.

How do I get started making these? I have a few ideas.

Clear ice at home FTW. Also made with home distilled water for extra clean taste that minimally affects drinks.
