- aaron-lebo 13y agoDo you mind explaining why? I wanted to give people who don't have Bitcoin a way to get involved without having to register through an exchange or use localbitcoins, etc.
- Sir_Cmpwn 13y agoAnything to fight the "don't read the comments" attitude people have adopted when using the internet. By requiring a tangible investment in your comment, it helps ensure people will make more succinct threads and spend less time trolling.
- krapp 13y agoTrolls may well be willing to pay to play, and corporations definitely will, but it seems to me that it might accidentally dampen attempts at casual or in-depth conversation. The fewer people who participate in a community, or become invested in it through interacting with other users, the quicker it'll die.
