Rekall IncorporatedThis is probably some organized pump and dump type scheme by key players.
Of course it is. Something like 2/3 of all BTC are held by a handful of people/companies.
otterAnother fun-but-useless fact I like to remind myself of re: crypto is that, back in its early days (`12?), an old friend gave me a birthday gift of thumbdrive w/ BTC = my birth date (double digit) …and I have absolutely no idea where it is.
When I was fully cashing TFO (before one of the crashes, ironically), I may’ve spent waaaay too long trying to find that >$200k memstick. 🥴😂🤷🏼♂️

Finally. Let us be free of crypto please.
You are free of crypto.

Tell that to my arms dealer.

Yeah. Let’s give banks all the power.
Like they don’t already have it?
Stay in school.
serious question, what power has Bitcoin gained away from banks?
It’s not just bitcoin, but cryptocurrency in general enables decentralized transactions and some of them even maintain anonymity for users.
until you need actual cash, in which case you give your identity to any reputable exchange.
also who actually benefits from “decentralized” transactions? specifically who and how.
also, that anonymity is what cash is for.
Why not go further and imagine a world without money, crypto or fiat?
Bitcoin doesn’t give power to you or me, it just transfers the power from one set of bastards to another, because it’s STILL MONEY and money is and will always be a tool for exploitation.
Stay away from lemmy, capitslist.
Yeah, fuck banks, give all the power instead to the exchanges, governments and whales. Give up any ability to mitigate or manage global economic crises. That’s so much better.
The naivete coming from crypto bros is amusing. “Let’s turn our global economy into history’s largest pump and dump scam….as long as I’m not the one holding the bag!”
Nature is healing
Yessss. Just get more ddr4 and GPUs onto the market.
Sadly? bitcoin miners are using ASICs and other cryptos are using proof of stake so don’t get your hopes up.
Cryptocurrencies have various use cases:
In most cases, they do more harm than good.
Replace crypto with cash and all those things are true, and yet…
finally!
Bitcoin is the currency of pedos. Crypto is used to pay people in the global south to abuse children live on ppv streams. The real amazing things is the EU wants to ban encryption which is a basic right to privacy instead of banning crypto and in a double whammy fuck the orange pedo in chief and his suppliers and drug traffickers in one fell swoop.
To be fair saying crypto is the currency of pedos is like castigating dollars for being the currency of the pedos. By the same logic we could condemn about anything. Crypto by volume is used way more by scammers than pedos anyway. 40 billion just in romance scams out of SE Asia run by Chinese Gangs with forced labor that is mostly run through crypto I presume.
But that doesn’t mean crypto should be illegalized for that alone either. The governments will always use those examples to lock everything down under their control and the consequences of that are far worse than the free wheeling problems that came before.
Dollar IS the currency of the pedos too… The leader of dollarland is one of the chief pedos, one could say, pedophile in chief!
