I've seen some really loving heated arguments between people in separate divisions under the same org about who is responsible for overseeing some new widget inspection, because they're both over-tasked and it could be argued that the widget falls under either one of them. Like, it's easy enough if someone comes out with a new type of prayer beads, that's the Bureau of Beads and Necklaces, and those guys have to handle it regardless of how behind they are. And if someone comes out with a new buttpug obviously that's the Department of Flared Bases. But hey, we've got all these anal beads, who do we send them to? Queue a lot of arguing and emails and no one wanting to take the extra task. the SEC and the CFTC have been definitely wrestling to extend their control as much as possible for years the SEC because it institutionally despises what is happening, and also because the head of the SEC is angling for a promotion and thinks that this is a way to get his name in the news, and the CFTC because they're a bunch of corrupt incompetent fucknuckles who see a chance to get lucrative jobs in the crypto industry if they become its regulator and do what they do for commodities companies (nothing, in exchange for some cushy post-CFTC jobs at FCMs - but those pay way less well than crypto companies were paying!)

Cyrano4747 posted:The regulation that needs to happen is on the end of advertising these scams. There is a whole chain of people in the chain that goes from "bitcoin is a thing" to "Matt Damon calling you a pussy at the Superbowl Halftime for not buying some" and pretty much all of them made a buck. That's how you get normal people thinking that it's a normal investment along the lines of their Meryl Lynch 401k or whatever, when in reality it's a ponzi run by the dorkiest polycule ever. Honestly, anybody who's naive enough to make financial decisions based on ads or trusting retail investment media is just a temporary stop for money in the process of deciding how they're going to get hosed out of it. One thing that strikes me about every clip I watch of a crypto-douche is just how loving untrustworthy they all sound - not just shady, but stupid too.

Cabbages and Kings posted:The bitcoin blockchain has had literal child porn in it practically since the beginning, IIRC? My understanding of this nonsense is that it had text links to an onion site that had child porn, not any actual files, because until now it was a huge pain in the rear end to actually add files (rather than just ascii encoded text) to the bitcoin blockchain. Luckily that has now been made much simpler due to some new functionality to enable NFTs on bitcoin!

Yeah it was always too costly to actually put images in the blockchain, it could only store a very small amount of external data. Other coins have been made for storing more data and of course they immediately get flooded with that sort of stuff, but bitcoin could only take links. Some people also put virus definitions so it would trigger your antivirus too.

Jose Valasquez posted:Oh now I get why Seraph is so into bitcoin There's a lot of overlap between libertarians, crypto people, and pedophiles. My feeling is that normal people don't have a lot of understanding, nor opinion, on age of consent laws but if you talk to a libertarian or a crypto person long enough, they'll almost always include age of consent laws in their thirst for deregulation. I don't know about Seraph specifically but so many people who were seemingly normal were emboldened during Crypto's runup to wear their pedophilia on their sleeve. Remember that dumb, creepy tweet about age of consent laws on the crypto island? e: here it is https://twitter.com/williamlegate/status/1480230151317192706 jokes fucked around with this message at 22:13 on Feb 2, 2023 |
