I don’t disagree. Crypto is neat but has no useful (legal) real world applications.

    Lol as if BTC or any cryptocoin is a store of value(instead of speculative tulips). One of the reasons why I refuse to accept crypto as money.

      Regardless, take my advice

        I took macro in college, I'm pretty well aware of the extent I do not care about fiscal policy. I even was basically mining bitcoin practically from the start (within months of the launch) for less than a week(and have subsequently destroyed the maybe half BTC I generated) before realizing that I had no desire to contribute to that particular mind virus. Money is close to the worst aspect about humans.

          Fiat currency is the worst aspect about humans. Money is simply a natural and far more efficient progression from barter and the associated coincidence of wants problem. If you mined bitcoin from the start and then abandoned it, it proves you know very little about what money is at all.
