What is this thread all about?
Just a place for general discussion. A place to unload whats on your mind and talk about anything - personal, health, help needed, achievements, daily highs and daily lows, theories, predictions and what have you.
Does not need to be Q related.
The post was pretty long. And people are rather heavily (ahem) invested in the topic.
One reason bitcoin is not going to be the answer is that 99% of all bitcoin is held by 1% of the people, and they're all related to a fellow named Blackrock. It would be like having everybody move to Greenland only to discover that it's all owned and you can only be a serf on some feudal lord's estate. And tether is another good reason, but that gets complicated. It was a good post, but a lot of people have very entrenched minds.
Thanks for the response, A.
"the post was pretty long" Hehe. That's either my great strength, or my fatal flaw. I find it hard to do short and snappy (pithy) posts that garner the quick energy of the board. But also, I'm less interested in those. I like to flesh out and work through logic, ideas, thinking etc. Being trained in academic paper writing doesn't help I guess.
"people are rather heavily (ahem) invested in the topic" Yeah, that's for sure. And, I don't really mind that. I'm looking forward to posting more and might make this a series. At least, to give the topic a good airing.
I was against crypto because it's used by criminals but it's difficult as anything not controlled by deep state government all be used by them.
