What's wrong about greed? Why not channel it to create a better world?
For every trade, both "greedy" sides see themselves better off, otherwise there would be no trade. This increases the quality of life for everyone.

- _57jb 5y agoHow much waste and damage is being done by the banking data centers and associates globally? Care to take a guess where that damage stands?
- spadros 5y agoYes, someone else is doing something morally reprehensible, so it clears my morally reprehensible behaviour too. Now you're sounding like a Ferengi Putin.
- _57jb 5y agoThis isn't a whataboutism...we are literally comparing apples to apples. How much impact does the banking institution makes vs how much crypto makes. Comparison is not a novel concept and is quite literally part of the scientific method. It's almost like you are intentionally sowing seeds of misinformation and distrust to redirect...or you just like throwing stones from glass houses.
