The people arguing for blockchain know nothing about it. Next question.

Remember Hitpiece, the NFT site that was ripping music from Spotify and got dogpiled by the entire music industry? Apparently crypto folks don't learn from others' mistakes, because a site called NFT Music Stream did the exact same thing https://twitter.com/TabulaRasaRcrds/status/1490815040693288963 https://twitter.com/shyphomusic/status/1491078192085729281

What cracks me up is that these crypto bros have a completely inside out notion of what liability is. They think that if nobody's in charge then nobody is accountable. Other way around stupid, you are ALL liable by handling that toxic waste. Conspiracy to commit fraud (or copyright infringement, whatever) seems like it could cast a very, very wide net if it wants to. IANAL, so I'm kind of just guessing at what might actually be a thing, but I'd sure as hell err on the side of caution if it was my rear end on the line.

Can't remember if it was a post here or something on Twitter, but have been thinking a lot about someone saying that bitcoin and blockchain tech is hard coded to equate access with permission and possession with ownership. And since we need as a society to have distinctions between those concepts it will never be able to disrupt, like, anything!

Somfin posted:Actually I've been thinking about it and this example- rent agreements on the chain- is a perfect explanation for how this crypto poo poo actually works. It wouldn't even need to be a rent paid in crypto, is the key thing- the rent could still be with regular dollars- but the scam is telling the landlords that we're gonna put those agreements on the chain. Spot on. A professional grifter might call your 'justification' the 'tale', as in 'telling the tale'. The cryptocurrency market is a 'big store', a type of 'convincer' that uses 'inside men', 'cutouts', and other marks, to make a completely fake operation look big, valuable and legitimate, leading up to 'the sting', when they buy from the big store, and vanishing is called 'the blow off', often accompanied by a 'freeze out' to cool them out and prevent them from taking action. It's all very obvious and archetypal, middle-of-the-road con games not executed very well, but also seemingly with almost no repercussions.

There's a theory that the development of life is energetically favorable because it increases entropy faster than non-living processes otherwise would. In the same vein, maybe life exists to ultimately give rise to bitcoin.

You can buy NFT via vending machine: https://www.atmmarketplace.com/news/non-fungible-token-vending-machine-debuts-in-nyc/ "Buy Pigeons" ATM Marketplace used to be a fairly informative industry site, but an editor there, Bradley Cooper, is pushing bitcoin pretty hard. Most of his articles are about Bitcoin ATMs. When Scoop isn't writing about bitcoin ATMs, he pens hard-hitting articles such as the times he gets mad when the deposit feature isn't working at an ATM.

wankel13b posted:You can buy NFT via vending machine: Remember when they opened Bitcoin ATMs, there would be the 'grand opening' with 10-20 other butthandlers posing in pics showing THE FUTURE that would be shown all around the other buttfondler websites. And then no one used them, a month or two after most just were removed as the restaurant, coffee joint, or bar could get more money if they put in a Knight Rider pinball table instead. When it didn't work for the actual loving currency, how do you think its going to fare with pics of pigeons that are tens of thousands of dollars? Oh wait, this is NFT. Its just a credit card skimming machine. My bad.

It's entirely believable that in the middle of a bear market and a slump in crypto interest someone suddenly buys in with billions of actual dollars.
