So what property does Dogecoin have that Bitcoin doesn't, that enables us to do this? The answer is nothing, and Dogecoin is redundant. Might as well use Infinitecoin or any other copycoin before Dogecoin, they are all the same copy&#x

Well obviously if you fix the price of Bitcoin at a certain point in time, later on it's gonna be a lot more expensive, especially if someone throws 5B at it. Besides you are trying to find an edge case to argue about common cases, w

Yeah, the one thing that makes Bitcoin different and a breakthrough in computer science is not important. Tell me more...

Yeah yeah, "basic economics". I'm getting really tired of all these unproven theories. Economics at this point has turned into a pseudoscience just like Psychology. Academics publishing untestable bullshit and people like you

What some people do with it doesn't invalidate what I said at all. I'm just saying that being deflationary doesn't stop you at all from spending it. What's the difference between holding it and only spending dollars, and

I wouldn't bother using Bitcoin if it was more of the same bullshit, just digital. For instance, if it depended on my government, I would never be able to use Bitcoin, just like I'm not able to use gold or any other currency that

It's not celebrated in Asia, Africa, South America, and in most European countries. Probably your propagandized media and education system lead you to think that everyone celebrates American holidays.

More like American humor/tradition. Try to keep it within your borders, because in the rest of the world this is a normal business day.

Except we didn't subscribe to the LameJokes channel, so why should we receive jokes instead of whatever the channel was supposed to give us? You should realize that this is the internet, not America, and April's Fool is an America

I learned a lot from OVH's guides too, but they vary from language to language. Some guides might be completely missing.
