these arguments aren't at odds. In fact, your strategy is an excellent way to diet with calorie counting. One of the best ways to improve satiety in a hypocaloric setting is by replacing high calorie density foods with low calorie dens

don't have time to read the article so I'll take your word for it, but I will note that upon skimming it seems to really look at bitcoin a lot. Bitcoin might be one of the worst cryptocurrencies to remit. I will concede internatio

I have no problem with properly regulated stablecoins (and hoping they come about soon). Blockchains are only necessary for one thing and that is cryptocurrency. Doesn't matter if that currency happens to be a digital representation of

It's not really Vitalik's fault how a decentralized platform is used, for better or for worse. Can only hope people lose interest in buying into crypto scams altogether, or that regulators do their job. And yes, I know Ethereum is

Wouldn't losses for most other asset classes be piling up as well? Direct exposure to assets or securities is inherently risky. I bought some shares of SHOP at ~$1,200 several months ago and now it's ~$320. a 73% loss is much wors

I would guess that you have never been made to remit money to someone living in a different country. There are multiple uses for a CBDC but this one is a low hanging fruit example. I have had headaches doing because of existing infrastructu
