It's just as good as any fruitcake passed around at Christmas. It never gets opened. It stays perfectly preserved. When you receive the fruitcake at Christmas, you leave it wrapped, and gift it to someone else next Christmas. Only a finite number of fruitcakes need be manufactured. Thus resources are conserved. Only a finite number of fruitcakes ever had to be purchased. Again, resources and economics. It's economical because when you receive the fruitcake as a gift, you have a free gift to give someone next year without spending money. It can be passed around almost indefinitely Best if used by August 9, 2047.
- zzalpha 9y agoI wonder if it goes down to the level of physics. I posit a fundamental Law of The Conservation of Fruitcakes. Specifically, of a fruitcake is destroyed another one is created, and vice versa. This also means that the universe was created with a fixed number of fruitcakes...
- CharlesW 9y ago"If you wish to make a fruitcake from scratch, you must first invent the universe?"
- maxerickson 9y agoAnd then you still accidentally find one someone left lying around.
- frandroid 9y agoNext up, create a fruitcake-based ICO: fruitcoin.
- jononor 9y agoA cryptocurrency backed by fruitcakes? Or maybe proof-of-work via fruitcake production
- david-cako 9y agoWe just have to make sure there's no blockchain forks that devalue existing fruitcake.
