Here's a reliable pattern that holds true about 99.9% of the time in markets: factory-produced goods keep getting cheaper, while everything else climbs in price. Think about it—mining hardware and semiconductors follow manufacturing cost curves downward, yet land, art, and scarce digital assets move the opposite direction. The inflationary pressure on non-manufacturables directly impacts how we should think about preserving wealth through alternatives like crypto assets and hard assets. This dynamic shapes every market cycle.

Nah, there's a bit of a problem with this logic. The mining machines are cheap, but the coin prices are soaring... --- Scarce assets are the real deal. Depreciation of manufactured goods is common sense. --- Wait, then why are my graphics cards still so expensive? --- Exactly, so now going all in on digital assets makes sense. --- The cycle of industrial product price drops is getting shorter and shorter, it's really boring. --- That's why I firmly hold scarce coins. If you don't believe me, look. --- Manufactured goods deflation, scarce goods inflation... sounds like advertising for my bags. --- Hard assets definitely need to be allocated now, or you'll really get cut.

So hoarding scarce assets is the way to go. I'm already tired of the old tricks of manufacturing depreciation.

Chips are cheap, but the truly valuable things are getting more and more expensive... I believe in this logic.

Damn, that's why I went all in on hard assets --- Exactly, but why don't you mention supply shock? --- So you're saying, bottoming out Bitcoin is the right move? --- That logic is full of holes... manufacturing inflation, you know --- No wonder my NFTs are getting more and more valuable haha --- 99.9%? Where did this data come from lol --- That hurts, I only have industrial products --- Just hodl scarce assets, it's too simple --- Wait, if mining machines are getting cheaper, won't I lose money mining? --- No problem, crypto is the best hedge against inflation

Chips are dirt cheap, but land and coins are soaring to the sky—this is the reality.
