You're just repeating the same disingenuous talking points, as if I'm trying to persuade YOU to use crypto - I'm really not. If those are your conclusions, then you're perfectly entitled to just stay away from it.
The only thing I'm really interested in is why you're making it your business to shame projects for accepting crypto donations?
Just for completeness sake, before you accuse me of disregarding your points:
> And the price comes crashing due to market manipulation and the project loses money
Anyone who sees this as a real threat can convert to another currency immediately or in regular intervals, making it a non-issue while still being able to transact using cryptocurrency.
> Whether they are high or low they are still fees and you said absolutely 0% which is not true
We're talking about fractions of a cent per TX. That's essentially free for all realistic scenarios. All centralized systems carry a 2-50% + fixed ~30c fee.
> Because it is an even worse system than what we already have today.
Situational. Neither system covers everyone's needs.
> With crypto someone can give me $200 and the next minute in my account I get $2
This just doesn't happen in reality. Normal fluctuations happen in both directions just as with any other currency exchange market.
> There is nothing special or anything unique that crypto has solved or done better than the current financial system.
Blatantly false, the current financial system doesn't have any privacy and is susceptible to government interference, e.g. account freezes.
> That is because almost nobody is using Litecoin
And that's a shame, but regardless, it's one of the most secure chains (w.r.t. 51% attacks) with ubiquitous support and one of the longest track records. It's a perfectly adequate way to accept donations.
- colesantiago 3y agoWhere are the sources backing each of your claims? Since you don't have any I have disregarded and ignored all your spurious points as you have no credible up to date (2020/2023) sources backing them and yet I have.
