cause lemme hates crypto currencies. I reckon it's from a very successful psyop by the CIA to make crypto look like a scam I suspect related to the mainstream pushing of NFT bullshit.
Then again this is just my crazy conspiracy theory. Btw im not suicidal.
@muntedcrocodile @k4r4b3y The reason crypto in general is considered scammy is because BTC, ETH, and most others are simply not useful as currencies, due to LIMITATIONS OF DESIGN. Such as hardcoded blocksize, block transparency, and more.
Right from the beginning, people doubled down on their investments selling flimsy alternative theories than the simple design goal of “Internet cash”
AFAICT, only one serious project has had the engineering focus to make design changes as needed. XMR is money
Yeah, that's fair. Multiple things can be true at once.
