What the fuck are you retard Americans talking about? Keynesian policies haven't been in place since the fucking 70's and Keynes didn't invent inflation.

If you have a problem with the way things are now then you have a problem with Jewish monetarism (i.e Milton Friedman) and neo-liberal economics.
Everything left of hard-core Libertarianism is not Keynesian. You're as bad as the lefties calling everyone Hitler.

Fintech coder personally. I think I'm fine lel. There's fewer use cases than people here would like (most things are still better done with a regular database - ie private blockchains are even more a meme than public ones), but they're there. Look at MakerDAO, Compound, and other finance platforms. And yeah, a good oracle is needed for some. Currently you need to code your own, meaning you have a single point of failure. Decentralisation means the attack surface is spread out & tough to crack.

1. I'm not sure where you picked up the idea that inflation is used to maximise employment when reserve banks aim to maintain 5% unemployment in order TO avoid inflation.

it is only logical that he would condone crypto.
his mission is to get millennials off their asses - he therefore wants them to acquire realistic and productive goals instead of dreaming of "making it" by putting 1k$ into someone elses code, sitting back playing CoD with a piss-bottle between their legs and then retiring without ever facing life.
he probably knows himself that he is not knowledgeable enough to talk about the subject, and that doesn't even make it wrong in any way.
many people out there need basic life skills before ever "making it" and would unironically be still lost in this world with millions on their bank account.
he is doing gods work and from what i have seen so far i am really impressed.
no, i don't visit reddit and i don't own a fedora - but it has to be acknowledged that many people wouldn't even live a happier life if they weren't forced to work and face difficulties that emerge from that.

tl;dr: he keeps *some* people from making it and that is actually a good thing.

Currently the crypto space is nothing else than a big scam. Public bolckchains as we know them now have delievered nothing special and are mostly used for financial currency tools.

In the end private bolckchains will succeed like all the other big private corporates in the tech scene are doing right now.

And the real use case...crypto as a mean of payment will be established by the GV itself aka e-euro or e-yen.

Blockchain is an interesting tech, but right now filled scams and non delievering start ups.

Prove me wrong. Pro tip: you can't.

first off, hes a globalist and he was invited to builderberg, so that should tell u everything u need to know
secondly, those globalist faggots dont want normies buying crypto and devaluing their fiat currency scam money
the last thing the central bankers want is for people to simply stop using their currency and switch over to crypto (something they dont control)
this is their main fear and why they get talking heads like this faggot to say "dont into crypto!"
u do the math
