Apparently some guys went around the CHAZ and tried to convince other people and vendors that they should make bitcoin their official currency. I'm not sure there's a whole lot of overlap in the venn diagram between the people there and bitcoiners.

You keep showing all these charts showing how bitcoin is going up uP UP. When are you going to take advantage of it? Like are you looking to buy a house eventually? A car? Or for retirement? Or do you intend to keep your supposed gains entirely theoretical and eventually die content in the knowledge that "arbitrary number was big"?

At one of my previous jobs at a fund manager we'd get million dollar buy/sell orders via fax and the only verification was checking the sender's name/number at the top of the page matched what we had on file for that client. You know the freetext string you configure in your fax

Maybe the idea is that bitcoin can only go up uP UP so having a collateral in bitcoin means you would make more money on collecting the collateral than having the house returned.

I just invested in CDCoin. It's my own virtual currency. I got in on the ground floor and one coin was randomly handed out for free and I gave it to myself. The thing with CDCoin is the there will only ever be one of them, it's the ultimate deflationary currency. Right now I've valued it at five million dollars per coin but it goes up Up UP all the time!

It's funny how the fools in this thread never actually post any content, it's just drive-by dropping of lovely charts and links. So a genuine questions for the coiners: How much do you actually use bitcoin, as in spend bitcoin to acquire tangible goods and/or services?

My favorite coiner argument is that because hyperinflation is bad any inflation is bad and deflation is good.

ymgve posted:Just fyi, all this nft action happens on the ethereum blockchain, so bitcoin isnt involved this time I've seen a lot of worry on Twitter about people tagging NFT generators on people's content and creating tokens for themselves, but if I understand this correctly, isn't NFT in this case basically like going into a gallery and slapping a post-it with your signature over the artist's? Unless they've agreed that a scribbled post-it is proof of ownership, nobody is going to care about it?

If you could have seen ten years into the future in 2011 there are still better things you could have invested in than Bitcoin. I will believe that bitcoin has a fraction of the value its proponents claims when someone shows proof that they've cashed out multiple million dollars worth of it into real money. Not traded for a house from some other bitcoin sucker, not traded for another crypto, but actually gone through a bitcoin exchange and traded 1000 bitcoins for 60 million US dollars (or whatever they claim it's worth) in their bank account.

Nitrousoxide posted:I mean, if it’s supposed to be a medium of exchange then the ability to trade it for another medium of exchange doesn’t indicate it has value. It’s the ability to trade it for goods or services. The examples you gave there would actually be good examples for why it’s an effective medium of exchange if people actually use it for that. You don’t say the euro doesn’t have value unless it’s able to be exchanged with a US dollar. You say it has value because people are able to use it to buy cheese or cars.

Gullwing doors have always been terrible and there are good reasons they only show up about once a decade, promoted by someone who thinks they're more clever than the last guy who tried them. Inevitably people are painfully reminded why they're terrible and they get quietly tossed back onto the garbage pile of dead end technologies. I will give Tesla credit for being a much needed kick in the rear end for the automotive industry as a whole, which for ages hid behind "The technology isn't there / there's no market / people aren't willing to pay for it" excuses for why they wouldn't make an EV that could actually compete with gas/diesel cars instead of half-assed hybrids like the Prius or glorified mobility scooters like the Ford Think.
