I guess that's "worth it" for some people here. The joke is, those people already missed out. "Crypto", no way that moniker lasts, is already in the greedy phase. Stay back, especially if those crypto dreams include

Don't ask a question that starts with "Why" (unless you're seeking a defensive response aka negotiating). And the answer to your question is learn about the stopping problem https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki&

I never said no-value. And my opinion on the valuation is no better than yours. I'm seriously wondering how many things you did this year where you were like "damn, I sure wish this were decentralized and cryptographically secure,

Yes, please screw the rich guys taking tolls on exchanges. This can be done way simpler and more efficiently without ETH.

While clearly an unpopular comment, the "investors" would like you to think that somehow the risks in crypto are any better than the comparably stable government system.

Incorrect. You're confusing "enough trust to make the world go around" with "so trustworthy we're neglecting that it's bad for the world." And I mean the latter more in terms of the brain drain than ecolog

So are you fishing for ideas now? I'm not going to "prove myself" here so that you can give me the blessing to ask a valid question. In sibling comment I mentioned DAO, but those are a bit out of reach for more than just the

"That's what Bernie Madoff said." But for real, that doesn't make the cut. 1) maybe I don't have capital to invest, 2) your "yield" calculation ignores all risk.

I mean, I've learned enough to have plenty of ideas for "how to use ETH" but nothing makes the cut. NFTs are **. DAO is too grandiose, especially to be hosted on ETH. And that leads to my comment.

Tell me how to do something worth doing with ETH and I'll be impressed. Cue the intellectualization from "investors."

Lol, this was a fun read. I'm sure an **** physicist will refute your findings promptly, but they're probably wrong too. Reading this reminded me of some similar crackpot-yet-entertaining site I stumbled across in the past https:

True, you are correct, democracy specifies no specific outcome. However, my comment should have read "bad for the outcomes of a democracy."

Sure, but this seems way more space-friendly. I don't know about the available space in Japan, but I'd have nowhere to fit a boat that only holds ten people, and I live so close to the water I can see it from my window. Edit: I&#x

None of your examples are on a public stage for a mass audience. It's different. What you say to the crowd has distinctly different impact than what you say "in the locker room" to an acquaintance.

Why? Idk that's why I'm asking. And your comment didn't help clear anything up other than getting across that you are obviously superior in the field of tax law. Thanks.

It's disingenuous that you're using quotes to represent something I never said. Education is lacking, democracy is suffering because of it. Anything else you interpreted is based on your own biases.
