I am pretty sure Buffet gives exactly zero fucks about “missing” crypto. Whenever I go to the store, I have never bought Bitcoin. But I have bought a Coca Cola.

I am pretty sure Buffet gives exactly zero fucks about “missing” crypto. Whenever I go to the store, I have never bought Bitcoin. But I have bought a Coca Cola. When I drive a car, I have never needed Bitcoin, but I have needed car insurance. Pretty sure that Berkshire has some idea about what they’re doing.
Crypto currencies might have some uses, but it’s pretty much a fad. Blockchain is interesting, but Bitcoin is pretty useless. I have yet to see a single thing that BTC does that I can’t do with actual money. And ICOs? Just ridiculous. Solutions in search of a problem.

- down 9y agoWhat a US-centric mindset, bitcoin doesn't give a shit about US, the volume is low in US, I would tell you a use, replace the dollar as a global reserve currency, which is why the the fed can print money like crazy and export inflation in the whole world, another thing you can't do with money is save on medium term.

- dang 9y agoSince we've warned you repeatedly about breaking the HN guidelines and you've continued to post snarky, unsubstantive comments, we've banned this account.
- 659087 9y agoOut of curiosity, who did I personally insult this time? Or was I banned because I insulted a "business" model that ycombinator is watering at the mouth to cash in on? ..or is it because I said truthful/unflattering things about Coinbase?
- dang 9y agoThe comment you're replying to told you why you're banned. I didn't notice that you said anything about Coinbase, nor would that make a difference.
