Insane stories about crypto have existed for so long and plenty of us have spilled many words over why it’s bad technology that shouldn’t be used for investment (or anything), but nothing, to the moon and all that.

It's baffling when you step back and think about how remarkably damaging the whole crypto currency market has been for absolutely nothing in return over all these years. It blew up GPU prices, wasted untold amounts of energy, and has empowered scam artists. Can anyone point to *anything* of value it has done for us in exchange for this waste? It's a tremendous failure as a currency: it's entire reason for existence. How about the NFT side? What has it done for us? Now people have a pointless digital receipt that will fall to obscurity if it hasn't already? Bad contracts that don't work? Exploited labor in pay-to-win NFT games that no one actually wants to play? It's been years of not only being a useless technology in search of a problem, but being a massive drain on society. We can't end this stupid shit fast enough. 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
