Shrimp > blockchain. Can't disagree with him there.

For that matter, shit is better than blockchain. Because at least shit is good for manure.

Blockchain is the perfect solution to none of life's problems

crypto currency is actually very useful when you need to buy meds that states dont want you to have. i dont know if blockchain is the best way to implement decentralized currencies (proof of work blockchain definitely isnt) but its what we got rn

To put it another way: Crypto is great for crime. Like I get that criminalizing stuff like HRT is bullshit, but...

but what? be gay, do crime. legality has nothing to do with ethicality. dont support oppression and hegemonie!

Do crime? But what if I wanted to be President of the United States one day, surely there is some rule about having a criminal record?

[-] B0rax@feddit.org 7 points 1 year ago

You only have a criminal record if you get cought

And close to half the country won't care about a lifetime of crimes if you tell them you'll hurt the right people.

It's really not. Most crypto is easily traceable, in fact, the whole point of blockchain is to be publicly traceable.

You know what's better for crime? Cash.

If you use crypto, you have to launder it to obfuscate the transaction. If you use cash, you don't.

Okay, you got me there. I'll admit that's a pretty good use for cryptocurrencies

I immediately took a look at the date. When I saw 2021, I said "Of course"

You can’t eat blockchain

[-] superkret@feddit.org 5 points 1 year ago

You should extract trace elements, then you can literally make gold from shit.
