Bcash could end up being China coin. Edit (throttled): bcash is bitcoin cash. 'bcash' is used to discredit it as 'bitcoin'. I like it b/c it's funny. China coin: https://twitter.com/zaoyang&#x

David Sacks said in an int that crypto is at da Internet's 1999 prices w/ the tech of 1995. Bunch to build. Best to invest in durable shit. Not hype coins or vapourware white papers, IMHO.

You know my utility function, bro? Maybe it's different from yours. Maybe I care more about books/code/& shit like that. Takes a high degree of empathy to understand something like that, though.

The digital currency set is larger than I thought (I believe it includes the items I've stated (see Wikipedia link re PayPay)). If you call censorship resistance a 'fine line', I agree. I explained why I made the distinction.
