How does this shit help uber drivers?

>undocumented worker

And now they turned right around to say that crypto facilitating crime is a good thing.

>>50192020
it doesn't
just sounds good

What a retarded "argument".

immutable transaction finality and freedom to accept and access payment immediately without waiting for a third party or bank to release it. your first day?

It's funny how investors in scammy "buy our token" startups still insist that crypto is serious business

>>50192058

>t. has never owned property

>>50193574
Still doesn’t provide a good reason why illegal immigrations is actually a bad thing

>>50191922
i hate how these faggots pander towards the plebe masses, modern-day civilization has made us go towards slave morality, so everyone deems the people he's talked to as good, or holy. I bet this fag has never talked to them either, crypto is literally just gambling ponzi schemes at best. The experiment has been tried in third-world country and has failed, nobody find crypto payments convenient. Crypto would more or less be something for people with money, used as a security, not a currency.

Imagine if 100% of Africa immigrated into your country. It would effectively turn into Africa because of the massive demographic change. Unless you want to live in a total shithole, some restrictions on immigration are good. And if you don't punish illegal aliens, you're selecting for criminals that ignore laws whenever they want.

>>50192168
wouldn't a paper dollar also do that and help the cabbie dodge taxes?

>>50193739
Communists can't into logic

>>50193574
>t. believes he owns property

>>50193739
Sounds like you’re making a lot of generalizations and assumptions about people you don’t know. Are you under 20 years old? What if all these illegal immigrants actually work and end up spending a ton of their money within the US…is this still bad too?

Is a work around banking and payment processing bans for politics. Its not so much about the job itself than the power imbalance

>>50194344
And that’s because the immigrants themselves bring that here because degenerate shitstain immigrants put in all that effort to come to America just to live shitty lives…are you sure it’s not because jew white handlers in the US infiltrated the politics system back when america was all white? If america was so great when it was white and no immigrants then how did it get cucked by the weakest tribe on earth?

America would only benefit from having all of Africa imported into its borders. It has always been the case

>>50191942
Yes. L2's (like Loopring) and HBAR are where real value will be.

>>50194460
Propaganda. Wartime propaganda about the Holocaust led to post war sympathy. Hollywood propaganda changed our history. Internet allows the JQ, now we're here. Yes Immigrants bring their shit culture with them. Minnesota with somalia, arizona, texas, Cali with beans. You'll be shocked to discover who makes up the majority of the prison population in the aforementioned places

>>50193776
sure. that's how it was for many decades years before uber came along. but that's not life in 2022 is it?

>>50194884
So whites got cucked by their own system they created simply because of propaganda? So because of propaganda you let go of the greatest invention of mankind? If true they didn’t deserve it in the first place.

So shit immigrant culture mixed with cuck white American culture is what we have now in America is what you’re saying?

>>50191922
Okay.
Which problems do uber drivers, deli owners, remittance senders and undocumented workers experience that are solved by blockchain, and how does blockchain solve those problems?

>>50192255
No, human is illegal

>>50194966
Damn. Maybe /pol/ was right about you guys.

>>50194000
I'm a 28 year old legal immigrant. Illegal immigrants are criminals. You sound like a naive child who thinks stereotypes come into existence for absolutely no reason.

>>50194966
Why do you think Jews are in banking and media? They're the two most powerful tools in existence

fortunately, I was always a metaverse believer, I'm now spending a fraction of my wage on Lovelace monthly, when they announced their collaboration with Nunu Spirits I knew it was my time to shine

you sound like a retard

>>50191922
Blockchain != Crypto
DeFi = Ponzi

PERIOD

>>50191922
Ok, can he let us know what blockchain has solved for the uber driver, deli owner, etc?
He definitely talked to these low class subhumans right?

Economist who dismiss Crypto think their smarter than the Computer scientists involved with some of the biggest blockchain products.

crypto needs to solve the ebay problem

>t. professional ebay seller

>immutable transaction finality and freedom to accept and access payment immediately without waiting for a third party or bank to release it. your first day?
Okay, but how do you realistically implement this and why hasn't this been done already? Are you supposed to send payment and convert your fiat to BTC than convert the BTC back to fiat? Why not just pay with fiat normally? What advantage does converting to BTC and back have?

>you have to allow people you don’t like to live near you, because you just have to ok?

>>50195867
If you have access to the internet. Go to your favorites browser and type in remittance payments blockchain.

>>50202858
how am I supposed to dodge taxes if the blockchain records all my transactions forever?

>>50194803

>Are you supposed to send payment and convert your fiat to BTC than convert the BTC back to fiat?
The idea is that btc or whatever other crypto would be a reliable and universal means of transacting value, so you wouldn't need to convert to or from fiat at all because you could just use crypto the same way you use fiat now. Of course this will never happen because of reasons.

>>50191942
Taleb has never been the same since he caught covid

>>50194000
Fuck off juden commy faggot.

>>50193649
There should be a law that if an undocumented immigrant captures a homeless person and delivers them to a border agent for removal from the country, they get the right to that person’s citizenship. It’s like a country playing trade up with people

>>50194000
Where the fuck are you from? Just leave.

>>50191942
Taleb is an example of a man who can be intelligent, wealthy, successful, famous, and yet still can't find contentment in his heart.

>>50204219
noooo shut the fuck up crypto is the future is going to be implemented everywhere any second now just watch

>>50192255
Stop hiring illegals and they'll stop crossing. It's literally that easy.

>>50202858
and why on earth would I want to pay fees to convert fiat into crypto and transfer fees from crypto into fiat and use such a slow system to send remittances when I could just use a bank transfer?
