Everyone thinks overnight ACH was a byproduct of startups like Venmo. In fact, the Fed opened up overnight ACH and nobody used it. It wasn’t until regulators stopped banks from holding onto funds to earn the maximum amount of interest possible that they became “consumer friendly.”

They were doing this when it earned fractions of a cent from interest. Now imagine a situation where the “currency” fluctuates by 10% hourly.

the idea that these people have all this money is always so hilarious to me. they kindof dont really. what are they going to do, take 50billion out of the atm? all you can do with it after a certain point really is buy some worthless app company called Ploom or Burdl (expected IPO value 12bn.) so whats the difference between having like 50bn or 100bn or like 200tn? its the same.

it has nothing to do with purchasing anything you want or need for yourself or for any of your 1000 closest family and friends (most of these billionaires barely have family and have no friends). it has everything to do with having enough personal power to shape the present society and its future, through corporations and foundations that will bear your name and vision in perpetuity. basically, it feeds their megalomania.
