So since NFTs are purely digital, how do they display them? And are they like on loan from the owners or is it just some rich rear end in a top hat showing off the ones he owns?

They could just right click ones they want to show and if anyone complains just change it to a different one I'm more of a "print screen" guy myself

Ultra Quality Digital Displays! Probably a few reference displays, maybe some stuff from the Sony Professional line, I actually think Planar of all companies plays in the ultra-high quality commercial display market even though all I really remember them from is lovely computer monitors.  Oh, never mind, they just went to Best Buy and bought some Samsung The Frame TVs, which BTW, are not even the best displays Samsung makes. I mean, they are, fine, good even, I have thought about buying one for our living room, they are not however ultra-high quality displays, they are mid-range displays in nice looking cases.

I can't wait for it to turn out to be a larger scale Epstein island and that the owner of cryptoland just become some kind of power broker. Or it just become a lord of the flies situation. Or the fyre festival. Or (and the most probable outcome) it's just a bunch of vaporware to scam a bunch of people like any other seasteading movements.

Is anyone competent anymore? Crypto in general has just driven my opinion of humanity lower and lower. The vastness of the incompetence and complete failure to engage in the most basic critical thought is just… incredible. Were people always this incompetent or is there truth to the internet just destroying people? Or just both? It’s both, isn’t it.

Plenty of people aren't buying this poo poo but it's in the interest of a lot of people with money and clout to keep the whole thing going long as it can. The true believers are basically just unbelievably noisy. Oh and some CEOs of various places who show why we shouldn't have CEOs or at least, not like them (if you're still all in on capitalism) Thing is there's actually an awful lot of people on the world and there'll always be a large fraction of dumbasses or people who are just incredibly credulous (or, the real victims, the desperate), and the internet has put them in reach of all of us.

My brain is genuinely melting at the cryptoland thing. The dimensions of satire and reality have merged and obliterated the barriers between the two, I cannot comprehend it. It's like watching the magnum opus of tim and eric.

It’s like how science fiction used to predict and inspire technologies, avant-guard surreal alt comedy satirising capitalism predicted and inspired the next wave of said capitalism

Mooseontheloose posted:Didn't you just tether in a bunch of tokens? So the conclusion I'm drawing is that Libertarianism isn't a fixed system of ideas but an open dialectical process in which scapegoats are continuously identified (fiat, the state, taxation). These scapegoats are then dispensed with to be replaced by new versions of themselves in a "re-inventing the wheel exercise" and then the cycle repeats. e: Libertarians are attempting to be a Petit Bourgeoisie in an age where monopoly capitalism has eliminated any basis for an independent middle class.

Can't wait for the creation of neo-Bitcoin which will be trumpeted as avoiding the centralisation and entrenched interests plaguing the old one, while being set up from the start to incentivise the exact same behaviour

Had a conversation with crypto friend and he was telling me how apparently January is the month for a particular altcoin. Looking at the markets (at least today and yesterday) he might possibly be right. I asked him why is that the case, he basically said that “people decide to pile in on this coin for a while, then move on to another one”. So, basically nothing to do with the fundamentals or intrinsic value of anything really, just whack-a-mole and the closer you are to having your finger on the pulse, so to speak, the greater chance you have to make some money. This seems just incredible to me, but at the same time eminently believable given the financial climate were in. I definitely do feel like GME was the epoch for this. The idea of crazy gains for negligible effort, just following the crowd, has replaced due diligence.

With many stocks, value is almost completely decoupled from fundamentals. Just invest in whatever you feel like will be going up, YOLO
