That’s like saying gofundme is only used to launder money and does nothing good for society. Its the same concept

Hey by the way, after we had that discussion bitcoin surpassed silver to become the 8th most valuable asset by market cap on the entire planet More than coca cola and Pepsi combined.
Also no, money has existed outside of States and Countries before you should look into the Theory of Money and the history behind it

97% of every bitcoin in existence being in profit still pertains to mining too, though. I mean you can deny it and be upset about it all you want. Facts is facts.

I’m not talking about mining btw, I’m talkingaboutt having bitcoin and holding it.

97% of wallets being in profit isn’t profitable? Man, you should tell these people!

Remind me again about how awful it is that Bitcoin uses so much energy? Is it because one form of waste makes shit tons of money for shareholders and the other makes money for regular people?
- Comment on Please Stop 3 months ago:
Ahhhh I see what you mean now that’s true but would be dependant on the legislation of the area like you said.
- Comment on Please Stop 3 months ago:
Just read an article that said that restrictions in windows 11 will send an estimated 240million PCs to the landfill this year. I bet a lot of people are quick to comment on their Windows PC about how energy intensive and bad bitcoin and other crypto is, though. At least one is doing something that’s never been done before (crypto). I also wonder how much energy it took us to get to the moon? I guess we should have never done that because of the energy it took to accomplish. I wonder if people were like this about vehicles when they were first mass produced and available to everyone.

Lol I know I hate making money on something and protecting my privacy and data at the same time! How could the “cryptobros” do this to us??
- Comment on Please Stop 3 months ago:
Gold being a commodity because its shiny and therefore has value is no different than “I want to use this coin to better protect my data and privacy”. Both are values attributed to a commodity. Also, “It may have intrinsic value (commodity money), or be legally exchangeable for something with intrinsic value (representative money), or only have nominal value (fiat money).”

You are wrong that money has always existed as state issued. That isn’t true
- Comment on Please Stop 3 months ago:
@itsmect mentioned this too but it is wild how this community just hates cryptpo. There’s a good chance the instance you’re on accepts it for donations. Why would they do that if it is so unusable and bad? Open source everything except the money. Makes no sense.

A view only wallet doesn’t trace anything that doesn’t get received directly by that view only wallet. If we had two wallets that didn’t interact with that wallet, it couldn’t do shit to trace or audit my transactions.
- Comment on Strange Scaffold's next game is about stalking and sacrificing your neighbours to keep the world from ending 3 months ago:
Lol yeah they are over the top for sure I remember watching one of them with my dad and he was like “whoever made this shit needs to be under 24h surveillance” and it reminded me of him saying a studio run by sociopaths.

Its a work of fiction bro. What about the studio that made the SAW movies, what’s your opinion on them?
- Comment on Lemmy has taught me that Firefox is the way 4 months ago:
Well say you googled a lot about abortions in a state that will put you in prison for it. Then it becomes a different situation. Or say you grow mushrooms to treat cluster headaches and the DEA now probably knows about it because that buy the data from all of these companies and can see the many searches you made about it the credit card you used to purchase supplies etc. I feel like China will probably just try to steal your crypto or something
- Comment on Lemmy has taught me that Firefox is the way 4 months ago:
Which honestly to me seems worse right I mean its potentially going to someone who is much closer to you geographically (not always of course).
- Comment on More Police Are Using Your Cameras for Video Evidence 5 months ago:
You’re right but it reminds me of that cop that killed that fumigator guy in Arizona. Total cold blood murder and that was illegal as well. I used to always tell me dad “no they can’t do that” and he would look at me serious as fuck and say “They are the government they can do whatever the fuck they want” its the same idea with rich companies they steal wages and kill workers through incompetence or lax safety practices all the time and sure its illegal but that doesnt matter when you can do it and face no repurcusions anyway.

You realize that you are in a technology news section of Lemmy, right? This dude influences technology.

Oh look a very current situation that affects technology but ohhhh noooo it happens to mention Elon Musk (you know, a dude who affects technology) now we get to listen to grown people cry and whine because they just cant stand that this guy exists and affects technology in a very real way. I dont like the dude either but I do like technology news which this and most of his decisions end up being a part of. Cry harder somewhere else almost every other comment is like “just cover your eyes and go la la la la la and he doesnt exist or influence technology anymore lets just ignore him!” Christ
