What if Amazon enacted a policy where customers buying from them with their AmazonCoin (or whatever) get an automatic 5% discount? Boom, real-world utility. Number goes way up from 13%. People will start becoming familiar with the concept of electronic currency, with how software wallets work, etc., all in the "training wheels" Amazon environment where Amazon would be willing to help folks out if they make a noob mistake. Amazon isn't the ideal solution by any stretch, but they might be the vehicle for introducing the concept of crypto to non-techy folks.
amazon has a couple variations on this!

a. gift cards. i bought a $100 gift card in some promotion (iirc they got my bank account details out of it) and I think they gave me $115 worth of gift card.

b. amazon coins. a currency only used for buying apps and in-game stuff. for games it comes out to a significant discount vs the google or apple stores. i don't know how successful it was; amazon did a big push a while back to get hearthstone streamers to pimp amazon coins, sponsored some tournaments, and stopped.

c. amazon branded rewards cards. i think they give like 5% back for buying poo poo off amazon.

more or less. they hold big cult meetups where they get hyped by "diamonds" (higher ups in the pyramid) who flash success bling (fancy cars and clothes) at them and they all circle jerk each other into believing they're all gonna be super rich diamonds someday

(naturally, the marks have to pay to go to these meetups)

(also most diamonds are marks too, just ones who spend further beyond their means for status than the others)

CoinEgg says my account is "abnormal." Won't allow trades of INT. (self.CryptoCurrency)
submitted an hour ago by whatsanlp

I created my CoinEgg acount a year ago and used it to buy some INT. I just tried to move my INT off the site, but withdrawl is disabled for that coin, so I was going to trade it for something else. When clicking 'Trade,' I get an error message saying 'Your account is abnormal,unable to trade, please contact online service.'

I have been in the crypto space for about 20 months and never lost a coin to any scams or user errors.

Is CoinEgg a reputable exchange or is my INT a goner?

You're right. It won't ever happen, but the no-coiners among those billionaires will quickly find themselves much poorer in relation to the smart ones who hedged by buying Bitcoin. They will also be forced to accept Bitcoin as payment in their businesses or become irrelevant.

It will be fun to watch.

A lot of people are going to get very rich, and the world's first trillionaire is likely to be a Bitcoiner like the Winklevoss twins or Tim Draper.

A drat lot of money will be available not just for charity but for all kinds of cool investments, experiments and other neat stuff. That money will not be in the hands of the peddlers of war and poison who are currently in control. It's going to be super cool.

Very little effort? I worked for every Bitcoin, as did most of us. We studied the technology and the market, bought the dips and held through years of bear markets.

We deserve it every bit as much as Bill Gates, whose mommy sold his crappy OS to IBM for him, or Warren Buffet, who ran the biggest Ponzi scheme in history.

And "laggarts"? gently caress you.

It won't be a "feudal overlord" situation, but many of us will be working hard. Since we came by our money honestly (as opposed to having been born into it), I think we will be better rulers than the current ones in terms of generosity and social conscience.

they wish so hard for bitcoin to take over but they can't conceptualize bitcoin's value in its own terms and always have to value it in something real

They pulled me out the door, it was up three floors, and basically drug me down the stairs on my back. It hurt really bad and I remember yelling "you're breaking the NAP" and things like that. "Stop initiating force against me." Then they kicked me around on the ground in the hallway, before they took my camera and threw me outside. I was crying and stuff, I just sat there. I was in shock because it was so sudden. Looking back there were warning signs though.
