People are going into work every day to work on crypto-related products. Bitcoin & other cryptocurrencies are putting food on the table for those people.
- bena 8y agoThat's a rather low bar. Scamming people can also put food on your table. Stealing can put food on your table. Neither is particularly productive.

- blueline 8y ago> it's creating wealth, companies, & jobs based 100% on people trying to make a quick buck, and not based on solving a problem virtually anyone actually has. by this bar, Dutch tulips in the 1600s were also extremely productive
- kolbe 8y agoIt's fine that you have that definition. And certainly I can understand why you want the words to mean that. But that's just not what a 'productive asset' is. You can have your own language, and that's cool, but creating your own definitions to invalidate someone else's use of that word is just ridiculous.
