That’s just FOREX with extra steps?
If Russia controls the entire supply of Bitcoin (which is what you’re saying) then why would anyone with USD want to buy it? At that point, being owned by Russia entirely, it’s just a Russian currency.
The whole supposed attraction of Bitcoin is that it’s not a government currency, and the supply isn’t controlled by a central bank. Ethereum has additional uses to that, but that’s still one of the prime factors as well.

The government you’re talking about can print money at will.
- Comment on From millions of dollars to under a grand: The dramatic fall of the NFT 2 weeks ago:
Again, why?
- Comment on From millions of dollars to under a grand: The dramatic fall of the NFT 2 weeks ago:
The price goes up as you buy it.
You could attempt to corner the market, but in doing so, you’re also going to be massively enriching the current holders.
What point would taking the entire supply do - especially since you can easily just start another blockchain?
- Comment on From millions of dollars to under a grand: The dramatic fall of the NFT 2 weeks ago:
How is buying the asset fucking with the supply?
If you mean hoarding it, that’s pretty much all Bitcoin is good for.

Fiat has value because the government demands taxes in it. If you don’t pay your taxes, they put you in jail.

That’s the point of crypto - unless you can alter 51% of the blockchain, you can’t.

yeah, the cryptoleftists community has found some decent actual use

- Comment on 'It's Possible to jailbreak F-35 like iPhone', Says Dutch State Secretary of Defense Tuinman 5 weeks ago:
Worked as an American consultant for the Dutch government in IT, can confirm this absolutely. It’s a case of finding private companies to funnel money to instead of actually creating capacity, all because of the incorrect illusion that the private sector is magically efficient.
- Comment on Europe is ready to ditch US tech for private alternatives 5 weeks ago:
Graphene and e/OS exist.
Problem with Graphene is the limitation of hardware to Pixel due to manufacturers.
e/OS is good, but the missing killer app for me is contactless payment. Which brings Europe back to the Visa/MC problem. Digital Euro could fix this.

So what are you seeing with your own eyes?

See above

Your math doesn’t add up. Capitalism kills 18 million a year. Even with the bad math of The Black Book Of Communism (so bad even one of its own authors says it’s bullshit), that means capitalism beat communism in deaths in under 6 years.

heh yeah, Lemmy gives me old phpBB vibes sometimes
- Comment on This past week, Lemmy has gotten really good 1 month ago:
Exactly. It’s like people that move to Bluesky, which is under private control, and then are shocked when abuses start there.
The problem is exactly that social spaces shouldn’t be privately owned and a source of profit. Until you address that, the slop hellsites will always wind up that way.

Yeah, people seeing pictures of children being killed in a genocide and reacting badly is obviously just a conspiracy!
