The green line isn't even accurate to the current data because he's adjusted it to the most generous angle possible, it would be closer to 50k going by averages. And that assumes it would continue trending upwards for many more years which lol, lmao.

I love reading the descriptions of shitcoins.quote:TRAC is an Ethereum token that powers OriginTrail, which describes itself as a “decentralized knowledge graph.” OriginTrail is used to discover, manage, and store data for everything from supply chain tracking to verifying art, diplomas, and business certifications. TRAC token is used to pay for data processing and storage on the network. quote:MultiversX is a highly scalable, secure, and decentralized blockchain network created to enable radically new applications for users, businesses, society, and the new metaverse frontier. The EGLD Token is the native token powering the MultiversX Network, and its utility comprises all core network functionalities such as staking, governance, transactions, smart contracts, and validator rewards. quote:GST is a Solana token that powers STEPN, a Web3 lifestyle app that encourages users to “move-to-earn.” STEPN users with NFT sneakers can earn GST by walking or running outdoors, or by “renting” out their NFT sneakers to other users. GST can be used to pay for digital items and upgrades.

Can't wait to be a digital sneaker landlord. Better yet, can't wait to buy a few hundred digital sneakers then hire cheap labor in the Philippines to run in my digital sneakers in literal sweat shops while I skim 90% of their earnings and have tech bro thought pieces written about how I'm a brave digital entrepreneur assisting people in the Global South earn money in the new international crypto-digital economy.

Consider how it is completely irrational to think that the IRS would want to be paid with iTunes gift cards that must be acquired immediately and yet countless victims of that scam appear every day.

Splicer posted:I know that, you know that, but how is any mark supposed to read this and think "Yes, yes, this makes sense, this is a thing that I want to put my money in"? Like, even if you don't know it's a scam, how do you not just think it's a bad business venture? It's Chuck E Cheese coupons that you earn by walking around instead of playing ski ball. The underlying "value" (and just assume I surrounded that with so many scare quotes that your browser crashed) is that you can exchange these things for digital goods (read: dumb avatars and profile stickers and the like). You know all that stupid cruft that you can get by earning packs in Steam? Yeah, that poo poo. In theory those stickers etc. have value because you can use them online and others think they're cool, probably on some linked social media bullshit. So you go for a walk, earn 15 sneaker funbux, and then can use that to pretty up your avatar or profile or whatever. Hypothetically, since we're already presupposing a situation where people give a gently caress about these digital tchotchkes, the funbux you use to buy them might be bought by others who want the sick moon walking inflation fetish darth vader profile picture but don't want to walk around the block for three months to get it. If you noticed the number of times I said things like in theory and hypothetically congrats you spotted the problem.

I bumped into a bitcoin ATM the other day, and let me tell you there is a threshold where an emphasis on how SAFE and 100% GUARANTEED SAFE and SAFEST IN THE WORLD in a whole lot of signs crosses the threshold into obviously a trap. I felt like I was standing in front of an elden ring mimic chest.

"Pay us money to pay you to walk" what's the point? How is this supposed to... anything? There isn't one. Which is why the tokens went to zero. "You'll get paid to walk/play videogames/etc" should always cause you to ask "why would someone pay me to do that?" and the answer is usually "they won't". The purpose of the tokens is to obscure this fact. People get paid tokens to walk, but no one wants to pay strangers to walk, so the tokens just get more and more worthless.

You can't defeat the scam by telling people to ignore the NFT parts and look at the base business model, because the NFT parts are what obscures the stupidity of the business model and makes the scam work. That's the whole point.

I assume this is somehow tied to a fitness tracker device that counts your steps? That would be super easy to spoof so it thinks you're walking 1 billion steps per day and tanks the NFT shoe rental economy.

I was using Zombies Run! a few years ago but fell off because the plot didn't really grab me, and the acting was sometimes grating. That and I got more into podcasts for my exercise listening.
