I was thinking the same. Seems HN is now pro-bank and anti-cryptocurrency.

  HN is anti-nonsense, anti-hype, anti-crime, so, yeah, pretty anti-cryptocurrency.

    until one's society started to collapse, one does not think crypto is good

      When society collapses, will we still have reliable infrastructure (internet and electricity, to be specific) on which cryptocurrency depends?

        another one from high trust stable place. glad for you being there. have you heard about decentralization? society is not civilization. local vs global.

          > society is not civilization. local vs global. I agree, and I am still pointing to the collapse of society, not civilization. My infrastructure is local. If local society collapses, what reason do people have to maintain transmission and distribution lines and electrical substations, to work at power plants, to maintain fiber optic or copper lines for internet connectivity? Even if "the internet" as a whole is still around, the inability for someone to connect to and to use it means cryptocurrency is similarly useless.
