I like the "Cryptoassets are unregulated in some EU countries and the UK, no consumer protection." disclaimer tucked away at the bottom.

I got a spam email from Paypal yesterday begging me to use their app to buy crypto, absolutely no-one in that company trying to juice the price at all.

i ended up installing a 3rd party twitter client just to get rid of ads (95% of which were very similar to this, i.e. “buy bitcoin it always goes up on this tell!”)

they're all on the 900 mhz ISM band. they're not even using ham radio. but they pop on a few times a week "how do i crimp lmr400 connectors on to coax" and it's always "im setting up a helium miner"

my concern isnt them operating illegally on ham bands but leaning on a free volunteer hobby service for tech support for a commercial for-profit venture. if somebody comes in there asking for advice on their cop radio system (and they do) they get yelled out of there with "go hire a commercial radio tech" and i dont see why helium bros should be treated any differently

I work with commercial/industrial 900MHz radios for work, and given how difficult it is to explain the regulations to people and get them to follow them, id wager the chances of random coiners violating the regulations at nearly 100%. It doesnt help that its pretty easy to get antennas that in most cases, have a higher than legal gain (they are designed to be used with either lower power radios, or in situations with long runs of antenna cable).

Technically, ISM band radios with non-factory antennas are required to be installed by "professionals".

It cuts down massively on paperwork. Imagine, if you will, a movie in which residuals are paid out by smart contract. For starters, this makes it much easier for the studio to manage payouts, and let's them get by with a smaller, shorter-term administrative team.

The benefit is you can set it and forget it.

Don't get me wrong, those are all real problems that will have to be reckoned with. But business will adopt it as soon as it becomes easy enough to do. At that point nobody will be hand-coding contracts, just like how pretty much nobody writes their own HTML anymore.

I think helium is the one I had an argument with a guy at work about because he was going on about putting sensors on everything and I just kept going "but that's RFID" or "ok but what stops someone taking the sensor off?"

bitcoin's major use case always seems to come down to eliminating jobs that the bitcoiners invent, like the fleets of armoured cars that have to travel across the country/world for every online transaction or the hoards of accountants that have to calculate and sign every single cheque ever given out by any large organisation

I'm not really a bitcoiner, you see, I'm just an ordinary "Joe" who got to reading about these bit-coins, and gosh dangit if those tech boys haven't cooked up something really special over here! Boy oh boy I sure am looking forward to all the benefits blockchain technology has in store for us all! We'd better spend all our money on bitscoin right now, who's with me?
