Again Monero is immediately useful to many people, and so are other cryptos. You don’t have to use them and they may not be useful to you. But they are useful to others.
Wait there’s a boy in that band? Stop trolling.
Seashells require face to face interaction, they weigh a lot and they are not convenient to obtain. Nor are they fungible or even anonymous. I am not convinced they are better than Monero, or that Monero has no value.
Yes, so you agree that Monero has value then, especially in countries like the US?
It’s also hard to think of a jury that wouldn’t nullify that.
Well the real business is political bribery right in the open.
This is a misconception. It’s not expensive to build the bridge, it’s just prohibitive to move Alaska down there especially while changing its border projection neatly.
Other non Social Democracy countries that have been around for millennia have far fewer billionaires.
They’re unfortunately a de facto 7th branch of our military. The United States Homeland Kidnapping Force.
Wait, you guys are enjoying it? (Source: 500 hours of gameplay)
Pix sounds trivially easy to censor, freeze, or control from the government’s perspective. Unless I’m missing something that makes it easier for the government to censor innocuous NSFW content. And we don’t have anything like it in the US so it’s useless to me.
Monero can be used immediately without storing a balance for longer than a few minutes, although a correlation attack would be trivial like that. But at best it is not subject to market whims any longer than you decide is necessary for your anonymity needs. It’s the perfect case for purchasing NSFW software, where you want the purchase private and uncensored even when it’s perfectly legal. That sounds like an incredible real world value, even after the crypto bros are long gone and the value dumps (imo) 99%. But it’s a tool that needs no real world value.
“Social Democracy” countries like Sweden and Norway produce more millionaires and billionaires than capitalist ones like the US. So actually we’re not a billionaire making machine, but a poverty making one.
Monero, a decentralized censorship proof cryptocurrency, has no real utility with regard to solving MasterCard’s censorship and only depends on a pyramid of investors to function at all? That is not my understanding.
Yes, most cryptos are treated like pump and dump scams. 99% of usage is like that. Absolutely does not change the underlying utility nor would I recommend “investing” in them.
It’s mostly used like that, but doesn’t mean it has no utility whatsoever.
Bitcoin does have some more utility based proposals but for the foreseeable future, I agree. Most cryptos are like that too.
“Cryptocurrency is only a pyramid scheme and has no real utility!”
Social Democracy countries are run more effectively than others. Not saying those countries are perfect but it’s better than what the US has currently.
