I would like to use a digital currency with micro transactions that is decentralized and censorship resistant. But speculators are ruining bitcoin, and others, making it not useful for these purposes. And I’ve been waiting almost 15 years for it to die down and be useful as a currency. So I’m frustrated that idiots are stopping me from having a nice thing. This is one of the few situations where stopping the bad people from “just let people enjoy things” is the only way to make it actually useful.
