there isn't enough lols for this. you're gonna "break the system" in which step one requires the unimaginable accumulation of wealth by early adopters of butts. the fact you think this figleaf of philanthropy fools anyone is a form of self-delusion that should be codified in the dsm.

your arguments are nonsensical, as is your rebuttal because that's a deliberate misread of what "philanthropy" means. step one of bitcoininzation is the immense accumulation of wealth by the early adopters. this is so self evident in the way you keep jabbering about its value. this will benefit the rest of humanity because and this is where you leak out a noisy wet fart and claim it is rhetorical genius while everyone else tries to bodily throw you out of the room for being so noxious.

Shame Boy posted:ah yes, make holding debt more profitable, that will show those dastardly capitalists  Modern people generally will do almost anything to avoid any kind of violence, to say nothing of systemic rebellion, with all the risks and sacrifices that entails. This of course includes all sorts of mental gymnastics. However, that all starts to break down when people start to feel like they have no power and no hope. When they start to feel that they’re living in a society with no justice, that’s the beginning of the end. How long do you think people are going to tolerate living as permanent wage slaves in a world where their debts can never be repaid? We can already see today the unfathomable amount of resentment and rage simmering just beneath the surface. Every so often it bubbles up and is unleashed in an explosion of violence, reminding us that we are never truly safe in this society. We're already living in a powderkeg situation, politically speaking. Arthur Miller posted:An era can be said to end when its basic illusions are exhausted… A retreat began from the old confidence in reason itself; nothing any longer could be what it seemed… A sort of political surrealism came dancing through the ruins of what had nearly been a beautifully moral and rational world… The whole place was becoming inhuman, not only because an unaccustomed fear was spreading so fast, but more because nobody would admit to being afraid. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Ylp5iKDFe10 Bitcoin is a spark.

"my life is challenging due to my lack of access to banking services" "I have something to help you!" "is it access to banking services?" "it's the most amazing thing! all people could benefit from this amazing innovation!" "but will it allow me to access banking services?" "some of the things you can do with it are almost indistinguishable from select types of banking services!" "like what?" "you can store your savings with it, and the value might even go up over time!" "what do you mean, 'might?' can it go down?" "it almost never does, and over the long term, it's up quite a bit!" "so it's an investment? that doesn't sound anything like savings storage. does it do any other bank-like things? like loans?" "you know, I think I'm beginning to see why you're unbanked. you don't know an amazing deal when it's staring you right in the face" "so it's nothing kind banking then. why are you even pitching this as a benefit to unbanked people?"

Yeah it's like a banking service if you conducted all your payments via wire transfer and your deposit account had -40% yield over the past 4 months and some jackass thinks a great name for sunk cost fallacy is "dollar cost averaging" while trying to make this lovely banking service sound appealing

I think this is funny because if Molly lives in rural Kenya and doesn’t have banking access, when she finally deposits real money from her sick bcash gains her account will get closed/confiscated for suspected money laundering or whatever scummy Bitcoin poo poo is FotM, because organized crime is both really smart at figuring out how to prey on poorer folks and addicted to ancient cons at the same time because there is no downside consequences for the guys making the bulk of the money.

bitcoins, so dangerous to the existing elite and plutocrats that it has its own header on cnbc and other financial sites with banks offering advice on how to invest in it bitscoins, going to smash the existing capitalistic superstructure so that known anti-capitalist emon lusk says tesla owns a few billion in it and both the stock and price of butts go up, making apartheid profiteer even wealthier bitscoins, so efficient that a single gambling site shut down blockchain transactions for a week in conclusion, buttscoin is a land of contrasts in stupid and very stupid
