Way to reinforce the meme that all crypto haters are idiots by straight up lying and making shit up. Come on man.

And here we are - greedy scam idiots on the left, angry ignorant haters on the right and we chug along through mud. The internet is so tiring...

the rubes do get so very hostile when they are told the truth.

Gotta protect the fragile ego instead of admit you fell for something.

You know it's possible to be critical of something without lying? You literally invalidate all of your points and I say this as a crypto hater myself. Just stop this stupid shit that is not helping anyone and just infect people with stupid.

Sounds like someone is used to spaces where FUD gets you banned.

Yeah it seems kinda crazy these days to believe that society should organize itself democratically through trust and merit but Americans be like: "oh no the system failed me once - time to destroy everything!"

Pump elsewhere.

I empathize, smart people tend to be politically neutral Also very few people talk about the tech behind Crypto

[–] [email protected] 2 points 2 months ago (1 children)

Crypto is a failure because of design failures not because "it's some control ponzi scheme".

I take issue with OP attributing the problem through appeal to emotion rather than actually learning what went wrong. As you implied the tech behind crypto is very interesting and there's a lot of value there that has been buried.

Now, idiots like OP convolute all of this process with idiotic reductionism that helps no one and will just lead us to repeat the same mistakes.

Maybe we need a new community here in Lemmy, for discussing BlockChain tech applications ?
