Palworld arguments and how to deconstruct them (+ common misconceptions)

Instead of making call-out posts targeting specific people like an SJW tumblrina in need of attention, I will provide general counter-arguments everybody can use within the Palworld discourse. I am sick and tired of AI-art getting normalized, this issue is getting out of hand and we must spread awareness for the sake of artists everywhere.

YOU ARE ENCOURAGED TO EDUCATE PALWORLD DEFENDERS, BUT DON'T ATTACK THEM PLEASE!

Without further ado, here common arguments by Palworld fans and how you can deconstruct them.

1. "So you're defending a multibill. corp?!"

This is a common argument used by Palworld defenders. Within their narrative, Pokemon designs are a direct product of their Nintendo (the multibillion dollar company in question) and you're totally bootlicking them if you're pointing out the obvious plagiarism - as if the very heads of Nintendo were the ones creating the Pokemon designs... The truth, of course, is that individual artists provide these designs FOR Nintendo. Instead of "taking from the rich" like Palworld fans claim, their game actually steals from these artists. Hence, those who call out Palworld aren't die-hard Nintendo fans as much as they are people who simply call out plagiarism in defense of artists. I would even go as far as to add that people who defend PocketPair (the developers of Palworld) and those who buy the game just for the sake of controversy (yes, it's been done) are themselves adamant defenders of a corporation. Since they imagine others to be blindly defending Nintendo, it's bordering hypocrisy.

2. "It's not plagiarism"

If you show a Palworld defender one of Palworld's character designs and the Pokemon it's based on, they will in some cases start pointing out the differences between the two in order to claim there's no plagiarism involved. This is easy for them to do because the Palworld design you showed them isn't quite a rip-off of a Pokemon, no. It's actually the rip-off of TWO Pokemon. In fact, most Palworld designs tend to use the model of one Pokemon and some features of a other, along with some final alterations that are unique. Once you point this out, it's easy to notice on most if not nearly all Palworld designs. Here is an example that comes with a visual analysis, provided by @RaphDesLandes (a gamedev!) on X:

3. "There's no proof of PocketPair using AI!"

Not only is there proof of it, but that same proof shows that the devs run servers for AI programs, the same which they use for their game "AI Impostor", a game in which the core mechanic is the use of an AI-image generator. Here is the most flagrant example (I hid the developer's name because I'm not that kinda guy).

Of course, I don't blame people who didn't know this. It's far from being common knowledge amongst Palworld fans, after all. That's why it's important to spread the word though.

4. "Gamefreak should'a made better games!"

It's not a secret: Nintendo and GameFreak have been letting us down with the recent Pokemon games on the Nintendo Switch. From poor writing to bad graphics, many fans (myself included) are unsatisfied. Palworld players praise the games' quality, claiming that it's existance is justified by the fact it's programmed better than recent Pokemon games. While it's understandable that one would want to play games with superior programming, it doesn't justify plagiarism (they could've just made a Pokemon fangame or a mod), and, well... it's simply false and doesn't apply.

Here is a link to a tweet showing one of Palworld's game-breaking glitches.

Not only that, but Palworld is mostly made up of Unity Engine assets, and it's controls are wonky. They're reminiscent of Garry's mod, which came out in 2006, except Gmod is faster.

5. Bonuses

-evidence of PocketPair using Pokemon fans' art to model their characters after (post by @onion_mu on X)

-every Palworld-Pokemon lookalike (source unknown but reposted by @hejibits on X)

-and also: deconstructing the (partial) myth around Palworld's success on Steam

Lastly, it's important that I point this out, even if it's unrelated: Pocket Pair devs have received death threats. This is unacceptable. I encourage everyone reading this to create an online-environment where people discuss and debate with rationality, rather than such shameful behaviour. To me, people who send others death threats are no better than thieves, so please stay respectful!

Thank you for reading 🖤 Please let me know if the link on 4. doesn't work or the post got taken down!

Hihi

Can I ask you what program do you use for the animatic? And can you recommend any good program for practice? (I never used any of these programs, and they look pretty hard, so I don't want to pay yet for one, but I want to make something :c)

Hello! This might be a bit long but I hope I can help you with this (I'm holding your hand because this is also my first time doing an animatic so I have no idea on what kind of good pipeline there is to follow...) I apologize in advance if this won't be the most helpful answer :,))

okay so for the software. I use the ipad for most of my work nowadays... unfortunately, both apps that I use are paid—RoughAnimator and Procreate. I'll walk you down with how I do it. It is not the most efficient way but here's how it goes for me... :,))

Storyboard

I think the most important thing for planning something like this is having a clear vision of what you want to see. I started this animatic by brainstorming in my storyboards what I want to see in timing with the song and its lyrics. Here's an example of what I previously shared... [disclaimer: I did not follow the template so yeah, feel free to ignore the kanji characters]

you can see the outline I roughly made to tell myself what scene I want to show to what lyrics (I got lazy to write the whole lyrics down lol) and also added some notes like the movement of the character and camera pans etc.

here are the corresponding drawings to it (sorry if the quality is bad, I just screenshotted this from my gallery ><;;)

Drawing the Cuts

All of the drawings are done on Procreate. I use this software for most of my drawings now, mostly because I like the texture of the brushes there. At this point, I am not worrying about timing these drawings to the music yet but I am reassured since I already made my guide of that in the storyboards. Procreate also has an animation feature that helped me draw the breathing sequence.

Compiling and Timing the Drawings

Once I've saved my drawings to my photos, I move them to RoughAnimator. Here is where I time the drawings with the song. What I like about RoughAnimator is that it has its own drawing tools (I don't really like the brushes tho... hence, me using Procreate instead), it has a camera tool that allows me to pan across my drawings and also shows the sound wave thingy of the song that helps me with timing. It also allows me to easily adjust the exposure or how long a drawing flashes on the screen at my chosen framerate.

I would sometimes be unsatisfied with my initial drawings, leading to me going back and forth between Procreate and RoughAnimator to revise stuff. (which in my opinion is not efficient but I can't really think of any other way to do this...)

So yes. That's pretty much how I'm working with it so far. I am currently stuck because both Procreate and RoughAnimator have very limited features when it comes to panning images... I'm still figuring out how to do that but I'm thinking of moving to video editors for these kinds of stuff instead of relying on RoughAnimator...

I hope you aren't discouraged by this,, I know it isn't the best solution... If you are to follow this kind of workflow, I think a good combination of any drawing software (hopefully with an animation feature) and a reliable video editor to time it to the music (I recommend finding ones with camera pan and motion tween features) is sufficient enough for this.

If you're using an ipad like me, iArtbook is a good free alternative to Procreate with a good animation feature. I have yet to check it out properly but Filmora or Capcut might be a good video editor... If you're using a desktop, I think Krita is good for drawing and animating!

I'm so sorry again if this wasn't really helpful. I will definitely share it if I were to find a better workflow for this. If you'd like to have some storyboard templates, here are some I found on the internet!

I wish you all the best in your plans and practices!

(feel free to ask again if you have any questions, I hope this helps somehow :,))

#pls dont be like me and I hope you do your best making cleaner storyboards aksjdhfalskjdf #my workflow is a mess i am so sorry #i genuinely hope this helped more than discourage #inbox #art progress #wip jail

'Sweet Venom' MV First Reactions

&TEAM gave us a stellar release with a great, hype MV, and amazing choreography which suited their theme perfectly. Last comeback, ENHYPEN gave us a great vampire-themed concept, in a similar vein. So, what do we get this comeback? A cheap-looking MV, a song which will definitely be seen in a sexual manner towards Niki, and a mediocre song.

I'm relatively sure the song will grow on me (in fact, as expected, it has over the course of writing this post), but I don't know about the other things...

'Sweet Venom' is in the same vein as 'Fever,' which is far from a bad thing... except that I don't like either song, feel that both of them are mediocre, and have concerns about how they are used to sexualise the younger members and ESPECIALLY Niki.

So when I say 'the same vein as Fever,' it is NOT a compliment. The only good thing about it is that both songs very much fit a vampire concept... and even that isn't good because they fit the sexy idea of vampires (my least favourite version of them) as opposed to the Gothic, superpowered, or horror-based vampires.

So with my very biased asexual rants out of the way, but with the warning that they will definitely cloud the rest of my interpretation of the song, let's talk about the MV itself. By which I say... there is little for me to talk about. But let's see how we go.

'Sweet Venom'

Okay, Japanese setting. I actually had to go back and check this was a Korean comeback when I saw this...

The only thing to say about this setting is that it's grungey and thus relates to other (lacking in plot) MVs like 'Pass the Mic,' - hence is something we aren't surprised to see ENHYPEN do.

Also the neon lighting adds to the retro feel of the comeback.

At this point we get to screenshots I took on my phone. For some reason, I wasn’t able to increase the quality. Please forgive me and just watch the MV.

I like the title screen - with the frozen lightning, the storm clouds and the font, it looks like an 80s horror film.

We get these scenes where everyone is frozen - either partying or fighting or both - except the members are kind of… not frozen? They’re all frozen in place but their mouths are moving and they seem conscious so idk… I will assume they aren’t frozen but are staying still for whatever reason. It’s pretty cool and likely a representation of their power… or another power which I will discuss later.

The dance is cool, I guess? I don’t think it expresses the story of the song well, it’s just vaguely retro and vampire-sexual.

Then we get the exact same frozen scene as before, except we have different members subbed in to reflect who is singing.

If the director isn’t trying to express a time loop of some kind through this, I genuinely have no clue what they wanted us to take from the MV.

Hello Jungwon.

I also find it interesting that they chose to have these pulses of light/energy through the dance scenes - is this a further representation of their power? Maintaining the frozen time bubble? Or is it just supposed to look cool?

At which point we get this montage of a bizarre combination of abstract photography art, partying, people just generally having fun, and the members with these dots projected on them. I can’t include all of the images since I’ve hit my mobile image limit but I’ll include some of my favourites in the next post.

These don’t seem to have much meaning or tell much of a story, except that people are being young and hedonistic - ahem, Drunk-Dazed, ahem.

OR, there is an alternate explanation I will discuss in the second part.

Ma adopts the classic pose of a Lady by gathering her hands together, for that speaks of breeding. Look at Renaissance portraiture and you'll find many a predecessor doing alike.

When at ease, Pa puts his hands behind him, as they teach a gentleman to behave. Prince Philip also follows the rule in part thanks to the hard discipline of a naval career.

On Ma her waist is a deeper red, as that's the shadow cast by her...blessings.

In a similar fashion, the ideal build of a man is a flat stomach and broad chest, and Pa's pecs extend so much the rest of him is thrown into darkness.

I told yer it was gym in the dungeon!

Let me make a comparison with Sinnoh's version of this scene.

Original picture:

You're too far away. I can't see properly.

Instead of staring out of the French window, maybe more concern ought to paid to the demonic apparitions in the background.

What's this, a party for the Beings Between Dimensions?

I kept thinking the second one is Angela Lansbury, busy blending in to solve another society murder.

This explains why James is confined to the immediate outside: well within observing distance but not too close, in case one of the guests consumes his soul.

How bloody evil is Sinnoh Ma there?

Look at her nasty face: she's like a furious mint imperial.

Her head is imploding under its own gravitational pull.

Even Sinnoh Pa's trousers are an affront to me. Gone is the proud protuberance and in comes a material arrangement implying he's trying not to soil himself whilst also hiding the truth, both in stance and spillage, hence turning his back to the crowd.

Worry not, Sinnoh Pa, you're wearing those special pads aren't you? Very absorbant.

I know the berks who wrote Sinnoh held Team Rocket in contempt but does that extend to their relatives too? Is there any reason why Sinnoh Ma and Sinnoh Pa have suffered the Palsied Touch Of Death wiping 'em down with its slimy appendage?

Perhaps it befell the pair on this very evening, so the boy was locked out for his own good.

Too late, his head's already had the sniff of it, that's why he resembles a midget version of his older self.

As I've commented previously, every single scene of The Treasure Is All Mine! featuring James's parents was lifted straight from Holy Matrimony! because the 'artists' are too busy picking their own arses to come up with anything new.

Why not? The plot's a copy, so might as well do the same with the animation. Flaunt those recycling credentials!

Some are exactly the same pose, albeit in poorer quality, but many are reversed, as if that disguises it, and when a picture is flipped, it seems twisted and misaligned, as shown above.

Yet even that wasn't enough, as their rendering of it is even worse, and given a scowling expression.

What are they trying to say? You think a wizened old dog like that could ever entice Pa's lust?

As if! Sinnoh Ma is blatantly older than him! Why would he put up with that?

He's rich! He can pull underwear models!

Sinnoh Pa would, because he's desperate. Appearances don't matter so much when you're in dire need of a bed bath.

I tremble with the fear that one day the writers might recall Ma and Pa's existence, and reintroduce 'em, as going by this progression the third showing will be even more shrivelled:

Next thing you know we'll be dealing with Link's nan from The Wind Waker!

What is this thing in anime when anyone over forty suddenly resembles a friendly walnut?

What colour is Sinnoh Ma's hair meant to be there? Mauve?

Mauve?!

Since when was she bloody mauve?

Her actual shade somewhat depends on where you get the image.

Google:

Serebii:

Both of these match the old cassette copy I cherish.

What's up with yer screen shots, Serebii? Did you take 'em through one of those blurring toilet windows?

Pokémon T.V. Crapp:

I can't trust it. Each update produces a slightly different version of the same scene. I don't know whether I'm coming or going.

What is it, claret? Maroon? Aubergine?

Hey, T.A.P. isn't on intimate terms with exact hues and all their airy-fairy appellations. In my day reciting the contents of a rainbow was impressive. Doing it in order ranked one as a genius.

It certainly isn't mauve. Apparently Sinnoh Ma wasn't withered enough, and required something to really wash out her complexion, implying greyness but not quite.

I'll tell you of what this reminds me:

Hey Arnold!

If I remember it correctly (and that's not guaranteed) there was an episode featuring a go-kart race, though I don't believe they really exist, as I've never seen such a spectacle.

Sid (the one with a penis for a nose and a nose for a penis) called his The Dark Avenger, whereas Eugene (the grinning one with ginger frizz) had The Mauve Storm.

After a mishap they were obliged to share an makeshift vehicle, but rather than combining names to form The Dark Storm, Knobnose got well annoyed as Pubehead insisted on christening it The Mauve Avenger.

You could call Sinnoh Ma that.

Well there's some bloody mauve avenging taking place tonight, though I don't deserve this insult.

Fun fact: mauve is entirely synthetic, invented by accident during the Industrial Revolution.

Well there you are then.

God is so opposed to the concept of Sinnoh Ma's barnet He refused to even make it possible, because God hates mauve, refusing to allow it in nature. 'Twas forged from the diabolical furnaces within those Dark Satanic Mills instead, emphasis on the Satanic.

But I thought you liked purple and all it's many varieties.

Quiet you. It's the principle.

Where was I?

The reason why Sinnoh Ma has the fan surgically grafted to her person is it makes an easy flat surface to draw, rather than having to bother with her beads, brooch and folded neckline.

Her bony exterior evokes female slebs who foolishly imagine being as thin as possible adds youth, when in fact it's deeply ageing.

As for Pa, none of his colours have been followed, and that waistcoat on Sinnoh Pa has a most angry cut.

His general dodderiness gives the impression his pockets are peppered with furry Werther's Originals, as pensioners love sucking a Werther. Everyone knows that.

But they break yer teeth!

S'okay. Sinnoh Pa has none.

Now what about the physiques?

Notice on Pa little red is visible, with his blazer hanging straight down for meeting no impediment, even drawing inwards at the end of chest.

You can see a lot more red on Sinnoh Pa, and the blazer has to part the further down it goes to accommodate the belly. The shadow is absent because this area exceeds the top.

They've warped Pa from being a fella who cared about his body enough to keep it trim, to one who let himself go.

How people deal with weight tells you about their personality. He can't be busy sweating it off and also not give a toss!

What, is Ma gonna tolerate the possibility of a conjugal crushing as it rolls over?

No way, she's got standards!

Why would she touch that when there's plenty of sexy beasts ready to snap 'er up?

Sinnoh Ma would. She needs a big container to store her favourite tipple of blood.

Bear in mind that Pa is the character when James is grown up, and Sinnoh Pa a recollection from childhood, meaning the old, fat, grey, decrepit vision is the younger incarnation. Make sense to me.

Sinnoh Pa ate all the pies, man!

#team rocket #ma james #pa james #ma and pa james #james's mom #james's dad #james's parents #kanto #sinnoh #holy matrimony!#the treasure is all mine!#hey arnold!#sid #eugene

Bubbles, Commodities & Worthless Shit (Part 1)

With all that has been going in markets, the holiday season and just life in general, I had to take a small break from writing. Furthermore, as I said in my mission post, I promise to always write quality posts over delivering quantity.

But it cannot go without acknowledgement that the last two weeks of November have been exciting. In the time period after what was the originally planned implementation date of SegWit2x, markets have enjoyed a universal rise in value, with currencies like Etherium holding water above 430, Litecoin breaking 100, and Bitcoin breaking its deeply coveted milestone of $10,000 with no end in sight.

Like clockwork, hedge funds, financial managers and the banking industry are completely losing their shit. Per usual, the chorus of "it's a scam! its a bubble! it's Tulip Mania!" has gotten louder and louder over time. In other news, water is wet.

The definition of insanity is doing the same thing repeatedly, over and over, with the expectations that one will obtain a different result. For the last half decade, banks have tried their best to delegitimize Bitcoin, and it hasn't worked. Thus, one can expect that the tail end of 2017 would be the very thing that drives bankers truly insane.

In the next two posts, I'm going to talk about bubbles, commodities and worthless shit. The reason why this is the topic of conversation, is because "the bubble argument" is an oft-heard assertion made by proponents of traditional finance. To be frank, I'm tired of it, and before I read another article from another financial expert that hasn't taken the time to understand what Bitcoin is, I'm just going to write a permanent rebuttal.

Perhaps the most significant comparisons to Bitcoin at the current moment are ones stereotypically drawn to other manias such as Tulip Mania, Beanie Babies and baseball cards which have each had their own respective crazes. More analytical minds will draw comparisons between Bitcoin and the dot com boom, which would be considered more accurate, but even still, somewhat off the point.

To the credit of seasoned financial professionals, they are working off of empirical knowledge. It isn't as if these individuals haven't seen manias before, and haven't seen how they have always have ended up in tears. In recent memory, most could point to three crashes: The Stock Market Crash of '87, The Dot Com Bust of 2000, and the Financial Crisis of 2008. While each event had their own respective catalysts, one thing that all traditional data would tell you is that when a market takes a bull run for an extended period of time, that run is sure to collapse.

With respect to stocks, this can occur when a bunch of investors, or a big player, decides to cash out their gains after a successful run of speculation. This can also happen if securities are backed by debt and customers default on their loans.

When it comes to cryptocurrencies, most believe that the factors concerning their value makes them a lot more like commodities instead of outright stock options. This comparison would be, to a partial degree, correct. But it is on this premise, that detractors would rather compare cryptocurrency to something intrinsically worthless like tulip bulbs, Beanie Babies, or baseball cards.

I believe that much of this comes from the fact that you cannot see, or physically touch cryptocurrency. It is something that more times than not, exists on someone's phone or computer, and to say that something like Bitcoin is worth more than gold at times feels truly, truly ridiculous... And as far as all those pictures of Bitcoin tokens that are all over the internet? Those aren't actual Bitcoins. They are just a form of memorabilia to give the idea of Bitcoin a physical image... Even knowing this information, hence, feels fundamentally outlandish in the world of sound money.

But to make a comparison between Bitcoin, and bullshit manias such as Tulip bulbs, is to not actually assess investments, and their value, from a standpoint of fundamental value proposition. In fact, how could anyone take a seasoned financial mind seriously if they were to draw these comparisons?

The problem with these comparisons is that all of the aforementioned analogies fail to acknowledge how each of these commodities were fundamentally worthless. Beanie Babies pose absolutely no value to the market because they are toys and their "value," furthermore, is artificially controlled by the Beanie Babies' manufscturer, Ty. I remember when I was a kid, two of the rarest Beanie Babies were Tabasco the Bull, and Diana the Purple Bear, and thus, people believed that their collectable value would one day float to the thousands per toy. However, if Ty wanted to, they could just make more of each toy. The rarity, hence, was artificially created, and thus, the toy wasn't actually rare. This property, and this property alone, paints a clear image as to why Beanie Babies have no real value.

The same thing could be said for baseball cards or, more recently, Pokemon cards. There is nothing stopping Wizards of the Coast from making 100,000 holographic Charizards (one of the rarest Pokemon cards in existence). Hell, they could do it today. They just don't want to, meaning their rarity is arbitrary, which is why Pokemon cards aren't actual investments... And this is the case despite how much you may have to pay in order to obtain a holographic Charizard today.

And then there are the tulips: perhaps the worst analogy out of the three because the value proposition tulips offer is that they look pretty… and then that value is gone when they die.

That leaves the only points of comparison to be found in serious instruments of value such as fiat, gold and silver. Instruments such as gold and silver are considered "apocalypse proof," which I would be open to debating, but each metal also has its tried and true specialist applications. These are found in chipsets manufacturing with gold and silver being some of the best conductors of electricity on the periodic table, keeping these elements in high demand.

The problem with all of that is when precious metals nuts discuss the value proposition of precious metals, they rarely, if ever, bring up this fact. Instead they bring up contrived notions of value such as the fact that you can "feel" gold, or that "you can wear gold on your wrist," or even worse, that their "wife loves gold and thinks it's pretty."

These are arguments I have actually heard, and won't dispute. People like what they like. But if a gold bug's best argument is that gold is apocalypse proof and looks good on their wrist (not that gold is the second best conductor of electricity), then it would seem to me that a precious metals fanatic doesn't fully know what they are buying, or maybe, what they are buying isn't worth as much as they think it is. Keep in mind, based on this argument alone, gold would already seem to be only a slight step above the territory of diamonds, and for the fact that gold is actually rare while the diamond market enjoys controlled scarcity... Much like Beanie Babies and baseball cards. Because the world will most likely not end tomorrow **knocks on wood**, and 99% of the world's population are not chip makers, who prefer silver anyways, then gold's only value proposition to the retail market is in its aesthetic value.

As far as the apocalypse, I'll talk about that for a moment so we can put some of the speculation to bed: gold would be worthless in the apocalypse... But so would Bitcoin. The reason for Bitcoin is fairly simple in that most of the transactional infrastructure used to transmit value would most likely be wiped out. This includes not only mining facilities but more obvious things like oh, I don't know, cell phones? computers? electricity? Or even the entire internet, for example?

Gold is a little bit more convoluted, but my assessment of its post-apocalyptic value proposition is pretty clear. Gold will be worthless because of the reasons I outlined above: short of a specialized value proposition, gold's primary use for normal people is to look pretty. Before you suggest that gold could be traded in a post apocalyptic scenario, I would contend that while that may be true, a transaction would likely not occur when you would need it, which is the whole point of having gold in the first place. The reason why is because a socially, economically, and institutionally cataclysmic event would push transactions away from generic value transfer systems like money and commodities that need to be physically stocked, back to subjective value transfer systems like bartering useful items. Have you ever, and I mean EVER seen a post-apocalyptic film where a character was "smart enough to hold gold" and was now able to pay his way when the shit hit the fan? NO! Have you ever seen a doomsday prepper recommend holding gold in the event of a solar flare, or bombs dropping, or global weather catastrophes? NO!

Why? Because when all systems fail, you can't eat gold. You can't drink gold. You might be able to wear gold, but it won't keep you warm. Oh yeah, and you have to store it and carry it, which immediately produces limitations based on your physical strength, or the resources you are willing to expend on transporting it, such as gas.

Gold is worthless because it is quite literally the last thing 99% of people would want in an event that demands basic survival at a worldwide scale: it is dead weight. It is untenable, and without the infrastructure to easily convert it, or enough societal stability to have it be desired as a luxury good, bullets and food will always steal the day.

So then that would mean the only time gold would be a tenable option as a safe haven asset would be in the event of a failure of government, or economy, but not society. Under these conditions, however, so would Bitcoin.

The difference is that its value proposition is in the security of its protocol, and unlike gold, Bitcoin is what I like to call a "perfectly flat" commodity. The fact that a Bitcoin can be held on any type of digital device and even on pieces of paper means that Bitcoin does not suffer the same physical limitations as gold, or even cash, when it comes to storing it. This matters for the fact that if a government wanted to make forms of monetary value illegal, then yes: all of you gold bugs are fucked. Don't think it would happen? Well, in December 2016, when India made money illegal during it's currency crisis, the government also confiscated the gold assets of any civilians that were holding it. Sure, you could hide it, but if your house was searched and it was found, you would probably be arrested since you couldn't be fined.

Bitcoin's value proposition comes from the fact that it is secure and censorship resistant, it is deflationary and it is not backed by debt. This is something that all people can enjoy, not just flashy wives or multi-billion dollar chipmakers. If a government wanted to go door to door and take away people's Bitcoin, they could, but if civilians wanted to hide it, a person could just delete their wallet, let the authorities search the device, and then restore the wallet with a 12 word phrase and have all of their funds returned to them. The reality of gold is that it is much easier to confiscate, and if the government wants to confiscate your gold… (hint: they will!) Not only has history proven it, but recent history has proven it.

So alone, I have explained the core value proposition of Bitcoin, and why it is not like tulips, baseball cards, gold or anything like that. Let's just get the crappy comparisons out of our heads. Was there anything ever like the internet before it came out? Was there anything like money, or printed language before it came out? It is time to begin considering the fact that this is more than just a widget or doodad. Bitcoin represents the beginning of something new. But is Bitcoin in a bubble? And furthermore, when will that bubble pop or end?

Part two of this series will look into some of the fundamental aspects of a bubble, and will discuss why Bitcoin is something patently different. As mentioned before, to understand Bitcoin, you have to acknowledge that there has never been anything like this before. It is from this vantage point that it should be clear now that what we are seeing cannot be understood with traditional market analysis or attempts at approximation. It's time to forget about commodities and time to forget about stocks. All these systems will do is create more analysts that are regularly surprised, and fearful of significant growth.

It is on this note that I will discuss the future of Bitcoin, its current rate of growth, and what happens when it sees the peak of its strength as an asset. The reality of what we are seeing in cryptocurrency is that there are two major contingents of observers in this space: greedy bulls and fearful bears… The problem is neither of these mentalities are the right way to think about cryptocurrency, so when Bitcoin increases in value, one side gets high off of the numbers while the other side is fearful of a crash.

Part two of this article will discuss a seemingly-outlandish idea: why a significant crash is becoming an increasingly intangible endgame for Bitcoin… or in layman's terms, why Bitcoin may "never crash."
