This article makes a good case about Bitcoin but even the original Bitcoin enthusiasts and crypto community as a whole has admitted that it was a great experiment but is now obsolete and settling in for a temporary (years) store of value ro

That's just a reductionist stance and when you follow that line of thinking to its conclusion then it would mean being illegal to record anything outside of your own house which is ridiculous because people need to film their kids goin

This actually might be a blessing in disguise for crypto currency as Facebook will lobby hard to get that rule changed fast as people aren't going to want to report a line in their taxes for each of the hundreds of items they buy in th
