Hillary 2024 posted:There's a Chinese mega corp with $300 billion in debts that is almost definitely going to default - when this happens a whole lot of Chinese equity will evaporate with knock-on effects globally. I'm not sure how bad that will actually be. I mean, some bankers will have a lovely day, but it's not like 2008 where all the big finance companies essentially bought in deep to a mortgage system that might as well have been a raccoon with cotton candy. It'll have to send some dominoes toppling and I suspect that one bad company isn't enough to do that.

Chinese accounting standards are such poo poo and their financial system is such nonsense, the government probably is anti-crypto for competition reasons more than anything else.

It'll have to send some dominoes toppling and I suspect that one bad company isn't enough to do that. It will have very serious effects in the Asian Market, this company is HUGE, $300 Billion debt, that's 2% of China's GDP. The reason people think it might hit crypto is because remember when tether claimed it was 100% backed by cash and cash equivalents but actually turned out to be just 3.67%? Well its bulk of backing is commercial paper(65%), short form loans which people think the vast majority of are from China. The same 171 banks and 120 odd financial firms who Evergrande owes money to. If the Chinese economy has a mini 2008 it could cause tether to tumble and it would have a big effect on crypto markets, and be a huge red flag to a lot of governments who are already critical of crypto. It will also most certainly cause a credit crunch as well as leaving many of the 12 million people with Evergrande property possibly in serious trouble.

I don't understand. Why would holding fake worthless bonds matter to a fake worthless currency company? Just keep lying, problem solved.

Lol if you think Tether’s claims aren’t just made up in the first place, or that it affects anything if that commercial paper goes poof

Well they already got fined $41 million by the CFTC for lying. I guess they could try lying again and hope they don't notice.

Main Paineframe posted:I think he's real, but intentionally playing it up and being over the top about it One of my friends ironically joked himself into being a hardcore crypto guy, and peppers his crypto rants with anti-crypto memes. If you're at all intelligent, you need to do that kind of thing to manage the cognitive dissonance it takes to cope with your gambling problem.

Besides transaction fees, and effort, why aren’t people just creating parallel tokens that also point at those shittily drawn monkeys? This has to have been done before, right? I wonder how much slap fighting this has caused over which official NFT is the real one.

Counterfeit NFTs. Would that finally destroy them or would it somehow lend them more credibility?

The people trading NFTs between the same 5 people for money laundering don't care if you make your own NFTs. It costs you money to publish them and just works to support the price of eth.

Wow, stealing other people's art, making money off it and then admitting that NFTs are a "scam" is pretty scummy stuff. I remember the Bitcoin thread back in the old days when the whole thing seemed dumb but it just seems downright evil to me now. e: house burglars have the right to feel moral superiority to people who are into crypto because at least they're only robbing people. They're not destroying the environment. Prurient Squid fucked around with this message at 19:55 on Nov 9, 2021 |

You can mint as many duplicate tokens as you like but crypto bros won't buy them and will just mock you instead. Unless you somehow manage to create a secondary market in duplicate tokens in which case they'll turn up in droves.

But did they put the token on NFTchain, the only* cryptocurrency dedicated to tracking the minting and transfer of NFTs? * See also blockNFT, which also claims to be the only cryptocurrency dedicated to tracking the minting and transfer of NFTs.
