Hazret Curaj’s Reviews > Boom: Bubbles and the End of Stagnation > Status Update

Bitcoin!!!

Up to p.187, Boom argues stagnation isn’t a lack of ideas but a lack of mission-scale building. It contrasts two bubbles: (1) financial manias (tulips) where prices outrun reality; (2) “hidden” bubbles like Apollo/Manhattan/corporate R&D—overfunded by normal ROI, yet they leave durable spillovers. Moore’s Law is the flywheel: missions pull compute forward; cheaper compute enables the next mission.
