Unironically going to put entire of my next paycheck into bitcoin, wtf we really are just at the bottom aren't we? This reminds me of when that guy sold all his stocks in 1929 after hearing a nigger shining his shoes was talking about his investments. Incredibly bullish.

They must be getting desperate , all the universities that are under the keynsian , pro welfare state , pro globalization ideology hate bitcoin massively as it goes against state controls "for the commong good" , so they attack it with everything from enviromental use , to idiotic statements like this.

The fact that btc bubble has popped up and seems to be preparing again for a rally has them scared obviously.

Just because something is an awful idea with only bad outcomes for current and future inhabitants of the entire planet doesn't mean a bunch of ex-GG MAGA technoanarcocapitalist Nazi pedos won't keep pumping fiat into it.


And while that is sadly true (or hilariously true, depends on how you look at it), I'm more and more convinced every day that society needs to act and simply take down the whole crypto folly, because the beast won't just die on itself, being the wonderful vehicle for money laundering that it is. Attack the fiat gateways, make those illegal: let the ancaps play with virtual tokens if they like but take away the ability for everyone to convert those to and from real money, so criminals and scammers will lack any incentives in using creeptos

Not everyone wants to put their head in hole, rather than hear someone. If authorities don't like certain forms of discussion/content, which is somewhat reasonable, who checks on them to ensure they don't become overly domineering? Humans enforce their biases on everything, those in authority can't always be questioned.

He's right though. bitcoin i worthless as a currency simply because it is hyper volatile and it will stay hyper volatile simply because it is a deflationary asset. Smart contracts are the real block chain innovation.

To be fair, you can be critical of Bitcoin the application and still be a huge fan of blockchain technology. Leftists do not have the same distrust of government that libertarians do which is why something like Bitcoin doesn't really make sense to them. If you study history and the human condition long enough, you will eventually realize the utility of a decentralized currency.

I have a cs degree too and I know plenty of cs people/professors/professionals, smart and dumb, young and old, some believe in bitcoin and some don't. The overwhelming thing I find is that the ones that don't believe in it haven't taken the time to actually understand it and its use-cases, they just see the problems media outlets write "btc wallet hacked !!!!" and shit and use that as talking points.
>>13125374
This. Every time I see commies trashing btc/crypto it's so reassuring to recognize they don't know anything about what they're talking about. That they refuse to see how decentralization in money and business could be a force to reduce centralized power is baffling.
It's like they'd rather live authoritarian lives so when gobernments force everyone into shitty conditions, they don't have to hold themselves responsible for their own shit decisions that make up their life.

It doesn't matter that Bitcoin doesn't appeal to leftists because the people who believe in Bitcoin subscribe to central authority mindlessly just like the leftists.
