So they destroyed someone’s coins because they can’t code. What a joke. So much for code is the contract.

- Anunayj 4y agoand this project seems to have the worst part of crypto without the decentralization.
- randomhodler84 4y agoYes. And this is precisely it’s benefit. This is by design. Safe guards are artificial, and ultimately distort markets. Extremely volatility is present right now, because this asset class is so new and poorly understood. Some of us want to play with the safety off. Life is a dark forest. We pretend it isn’t with “safeguards” but they only mask its true nature.
- klyrs 4y agoAnd a user accidentally and irrevocably getting 5 trillion coins won't "distort" the market?
- randomhodler84 4y agoThe market would respond to the existence of the extra coins, inflating them to zero. Those with long LP positions in pools with exposure will take a large loss. No bail out, some win, some lose.
- jankyxenon 4y agoAnd should I want to play this stupid game with real money?
- randomhodler84 4y agoThat is a decision only you can make for yourself. Some people collect plates and spoons. Some Collect stamps. Others like unusual coins. Me, I’m all about the sats.
- klyrs 4y agoStands to reason you wouldn't be upset by a stranger taking the tires off your car, because they were merely bolted on and that's how unregulated markets are supposed to work?
- randomhodler84 4y agoI don’t own a car, and I don’t leave things out in public that can be stolen by removing bolts. That’s how unregulated markets work.

- mint2 4y agoIf only there was an equivalent unregulated food space. Wonder how many crypto enthusiasts would put their money where their mouth is. Or maybe crypto enthusiasts like regulations selectively.
- stevekemp 4y agoIsn't that what people were doing with Soylent?
- tadfisher 4y agoSoylent is regulated and uses an established manufacturer to make the product.
- randomhodler84 4y agoNow. It was always an open food project and spawned many other unregulated powered food makers. Some of these are regulated today. I was into it years ago in the food hacking days and also when I was vegan. I want a world where I can buy weird powered food from hackers without the man regulating it’s contents.
- tadfisher 4y agoAll of them are regulated. That some "food hackers" break the plethora of local, state, and federal laws governing the manufacture and sale of food products does not falsify this fact. Frankly, what you want is insane. The reason we have laws and regulations for food content is to avoid killing people with botulism, salmonella, E. coli, lead, mercury, arsenic, cyanide... — basically all the things people used to die of before they got sick of dealing with food-borne illnesses and poisoning and demanded regulations. The regulations aren't even that onerous. I helped my wife start a food business, and the costs are not anything exorbitant; commercial kitchen space, testing for shelf-stability, and some local certifications. It was profitable enough for someone who is selling as a hobby, but anyone serious would buy or build a kitchen to reduce ongoing costs and boost profit.

- Mo3 4y agoWhy does the "Decentral Bank" have safeguards and ways to modify "immutable" constructs just like any other web3/DeFi project then? The financial system is the way it is for a reason, and crypto is not some sort of revolutionary unicorn that noone has ever thought of before teenagers wanted to buy ape pictures. Yeah, proof of ownership is cool and stuff. Meanwhile almost the whole of DeFi and Web3 is even running counter to the very core philosophy of cryptocurrency and/or decentralisation… and this comes from an early Bitcoin evangelist. I’m truly starting to believe that the crypto “investors” nowadays are the only ones not understanding this “new asset class” that for some reason is 14 years old and has CME futures. You’re not even playing with safety off, you just strapped a black stock market to a blockchain, handed the safety to amateurs and criminals and are playing with regulation off. But yeah, the stupid nonbelievers, that’s why volatility must be present. First of all, what’s happening to DeFi isn’t volatility, and secondly I’ve heard that kind of reasoning before and it never ends well.
- jackblemming 4y agoThe icing on the cake is their name is Decentral Bank. What a joke.
- mrjin 4y agoWorse than that. If they are really decentralized, how come they can ever destroy somebody else's coins?
