The Royal Institute is doing a thing on Monday of two blonkchen advocates debating "bluckchon, GOOD? or BETTER?" and I'm the last second drop in moderator, because an important part of my brand is that I'll show up at the opening of an envelope and especially if they pay me. Cheap event, please come and ask the questions I'll have trouble phrasing politely.

Why does literally everything about cryptocurrency or libertarians ALWAYS boil down to people (wanting) to gently caress(ing) kids.

Like, why.

seriouspost: my theory is that the culture of "all free speech all the time if you don't like it you're just a cuck sjw!!!" makes that kind of poo poo seem acceptable, especially places like 4chan with terminal anime poisoning, so people who might not have otherwise gone down that route find themselves surrounded by a bunch of creeps who treat anyone saying "hey maybe don't gently caress kids" as proof that you're a horrible snowflake prude and, yeah.

this also gives the false idea that everyone is fine with this sort of thing, or at least everyone who would ever read your dumb blog, hence that guy writing about it. see also: the number of people who will flat-out tell you they're a "lolicon" the way someone else might say "i'm into wood shop hobbies", like it's just their identity.

sodafountan [score hidden] 3 hours ago

Bubbles are healthy for bitcoin and part of the natural evolution of the algorithm. I don't want bubbles to ever go away and I don't think they will, bubbles are how long time supporters and believers in bitcoin profit.

There will be a bubble after every halving, some people are trying to claim that the halving is already priced in but it's something you can't "price in", it's an organic event that will have a slow but steady impact on the price, and when people see the price begin to rise fomo becomes real and boom, the cycle continues.

When I explain to people what bitcoin is I just tell them it's one of the most brilliant economic algorithms ever invented, it'll repeat over and over and over again. What a time to be alive.

ah yes, the classic true martyr for freedom who is simultaneously innocent because he didn't do what he was accused of but also is a political prisoner because he did all of it but the laws are unjust and so he shouldn't be punished
