A great journal article (available under open access) on what has always struck me as an understudied topic; the long half life of reserve currencies.

Crypto leaders press Trump to create federal bitcoin reserve President-elect Donald Trump has expressed support for the bitcoin idea, which some economists see as inflationary and costly, depending on its implementation.

Letโ€™s be real: This is a subsidy. The people who hate public spending have invented a massive government subsidy for a technology that has still yet to find a broad-based practical application 15 years after its debut

SBF Considered โ€˜Coming Out as a Republicanโ€™ Amid FTX Collapse Sam Bankman-Fried came up with a lot of ideas to rehabilitate his image and launch a new crypto exchange after FTX went into bankruptcy.

In a document labeled โ€œthese are all random probably bad ideas that arenโ€™t vetted,โ€ convicted fraudster Sam Bankman-Fried considered going on Tucker Carlsonโ€™s show to โ€œcome out as a republicanโ€ and โ€œcome out against the woke agenda.โ€

Putting both alts in each image to have the comparison: 

For this image:
A map highlighting multiple Whole Foods Market locations with red location markers in the Los Angeles area, showing clusters particularly around downtown and Pasadena.

For the second image:
A map displaying numerous Dollar Tree store locations with red location markers across the Los Angeles area, with a notable concentration along the 101 freeway and in the Pasadena region.

These descriptions provide a visual understanding of the distribution of these stores across the cityscape.

For an easy experiment that frames socioeconomic status within cities: Search for Whole Foods vs Dollar Tree. Itโ€™s often a near mirror image.

I just made these of LA. Iโ€™m sure the equivalent is true outside the US.
