Bitcoin allows people to make transactions online with no authority okaying them, donate to banned platforms and cancelled friends, order pharma grade drugs off the Internet, and it all works because of magic of mathematics... sure, it's used for speculation but it's also quite spectacular.

Where was I being impolite? >His question was rhetorical, he even then spent time answering your question My original question was rhetorical and didn't need any explanation, as I answered it myself in the next sentence, thank you very much. >if you're the type of person who misunderstands context This personal attack is just needlessly snarky and adds no value to this discussion.
- ionwake 6y agoSorry I caused offence I was trying to give feedback and sounded brash. On a slightly different topic (srsly) would there be a way of saying what I said without it sounding snarky? I was trying to be polite.
