Even the “bitcoin president” has been unable to break the so-called currency’s inevitable fall. Soon the whole thing will be a bloody mess on the pavement.
“It’s the story of a man who is falling from a 50-storey building. At each floor, as he falls, he comforts himself by repeating: jusqu’ici tout va bien [so far, so good], jusqu’ici tout va bien, jusqu’ici tout va bien.”
So starts the brilliant 1995 French cult classic La Haine. Those words, that image, have somehow seared themselves into my consciousness for life. They soothe me when I’m feeling anxious or having impostor worries. They suggest that, given I seem to have got away with it so far, maybe I’ll keep on getting away with it.
