Crypto bros here seem to keep forgetting Terra Luna, FTX, and Celsius. Why?
@elysiumboats
@elysiumboats Год назад
FTX & Celsius are not actual crypto - they are akin to Wall Street firms masquerading as crypto. True crypto is about self custody, decentralized finance & trustless/immutable protocols. Keep reading mate, you’re about to miss the biggest opportunity in a millennium.

It isn’t that simple. Once you start regulating something you legitimize it. So there is an argument for leaving it alone. Its not always the governments job to protect the gullible and greedy from themselves. Not saying that’s right in this case - but its an argument.

I never met a person who wants crypto for paying online or some hard cases. It is always an investment for a quick buck. Which is fine as long as they are treated as stocks not currencies. Ben is so right
@elysiumboats
@elysiumboats Год назад
@roc7880 Our app accepts global payments via crypto because it’s faster, cheaper, provides instant settlement & is irreversible. As such they’re entirely currencies, not equities (stocks). It’s also why we pay some of our developers overseas. There are infinite uses of blockchains and the crypto that supports them. Saying they’re useless is like saying software itself is useless.

crypto is upcoming technologies you're investing in blockchain technology, which is being adopted by everywhere. And I'm sure you're using it right now. And don't even know it, and it's spreading. Its tentacles throughout the financial system supply chains AI. Cloud Storage data services, medical systems, there is only a few that are actually currencies. Bitcoin is made to stay away from the governments and big businesses. But yet they're pulling it in, and they're gonna try to control it. And it's a store, wealth for corporations and governments, you get other ones that are more suitable to peer-to-peer payments and you get other ones that are infrastructure for web 3 and web 2 is pulling it. In you're in, I think people need to do their homework. And if they're going to invest in the crypto, they need to do their homework and realizes it's not Wall Street. It runs on an entirely different. There's no participation trophies here. You either get it right or you lose.

Not saying there isn’t shady stuff that happens with crypto but this guy has limited experience and knowledge of the space if he first got in during 2021. Also simply having an undergrad degree in economics you got 20 years ago doesn’t make you qualified to write a book on money, especially when your career path had nothing to do with that.

This guy has no clue what's going on. Hes upset because he lost money, and he thinks hes smarter than everybody else. Even others, more and more correlation to the bigger markets. Every day it still runs on a separate cycle. He thought he could put his money in. And just leave it and come back and have more money. At some point, no, it runs on a cycle. Even though if you would just for inflation, you're still ahead if you invested in 2020. Even though you have went through the crypto summer into the crypto winter. It's not a crash crypto didn't crash crypto. Go through its seasons, and you're not just investing in occurrency. Bitcoin is a currency for the wealthy to store their value. You to have it hedged against inflation and government congovernment confirmation. There are others that are infrastructure for technology cloud storage data services, medical information, metal AI infra structure. I think other people need to do their homework is well. No offense, but crypto is the investment into the future of a data world data-driven world.

Well he isn't really wrong. I mean we see with FTT that these fraudulent coins can be used to create leverage that doesn't really exist. The thing with cryptos is that often times all of the new underground crypto currencies act essentially like penny stocks trading off at fractions of a dollar and people say" oh well if I spend $10,000 on a $0.10 crypto it amounts to 100000 individual coins", these people buying these coins then say "oh well if it goes up to a dollar I make $90,000 dollars in profit" what they ignore is that that would be a 900% increase in value. That is a crazy return and remember that crypto is not like a stock it doesn't have value tied to a corporation and its successes. Crypto often is completely a marketing industry which can be very very risky.

The counteroffensive was drowned in the blood of the Armed Forces of Ukraine. Why Zelensky needed to throw people and equipment for slaughter for the fourth time, I don’t understand. Everyone is talking about the burning Leopards and M2A2 Bradley tanks. By the way, the military of the Armed Forces of Ukraine call the Bradley BMP - a coffin on wheels or a matchbox, because the survival rate of the crew is 25% from a quick fire and the release of acrid smoke, the impossibility of field repairs, equipment not for combat but for an exhibition. But now it is clear why the United States did not want to transfer its legendary M1 Abrams tanks to Ukraine, and they deftly framed Germany with their leopard tanks. Also, Great Britain insisted that they not send their Challenger 2 to the attack (there is information that they agreed to sell one unit to Russia, leaving it in position). Also in this suicidal counteroffensive, the overrated - HMMWV - Humvee (according to the Armed Forces of Ukraine, worse than the Soviet UAZ) - MRAP International MaxxPro (high fuel consumption, frequent breakdowns and fires) - FV4333 Stormer - APC "M 113" (easily penetrated often breaks) - FMTV (sharpens on slightly damp ground, high fuel consumption). But these are still flowers, remember the transfer to Ukraine of the MIM-104 Patriot. So, one of the two was destroyed, and the second was damaged, all the ammunition was spent on trying to shoot down Russian missiles, there are many videos on the net of how in Kiev they fall on passing civilian vehicles and residential buildings instead of hitting air targets. There have been attempts to shoot down drones of the Geranium type, and they cannot even shoot down. The UAVs that the US donated to Ukraine are the Boeing Insitu ScanEagle, Switchblade, and Phoenix Ghost. Russia intercepts 99%, some planted in good condition. We can say that all the equipment supplied from the United States for Ukraine became just scrap metal, and all its advantages were just a myth that dispelled on the battlefield. Yes, I forgot about - M142 HIMARS and its European counterparts, at first caused problems, especially using Starlink, the efficiency was great, by the way, it was used to cause damage to the Kakhovka hydroelectric power station in the fall, the accuracy was at the height of the hits, spillway locks on platinum were damaged. But at the moment, most HIMARS missiles are intercepted and the launch sites are easy to calculate, for this reason the frequency of their use has decreased, and the Armed Forces often change launch sites and immediately after launch they try to move away from the launch site as much as possible. This is why the US is afraid to hand over M1 Abrams and F16s to Ukraine. After all, the whole world will understand that US technology is too overhyped and most of the price is a way of money laundering (corruption in a word).!!!!
