I guessed that this dude must be another Thiel-style anti-college zealot, and surprise surprise, he’s another product of the college-dropout-to-SV-startup-executive pipeline. not going to college or dropping out of college is perfectly fine, unless you’re one of these Peter Thiel vampire libertarians who thinks that college makes you dumb and evil, in which case you should be forced to go to college in order to get these dumb poo poo “is babby a person?? how is babby murdered?” pseudo-philosophical questions out of your system in a sophomore dorm room, where a bunch of other stoned or drunk sophomores can tell you to shut the gently caress up with your stupid ideas already

qirex posted:otoh citibank has a lot of experience in not going out of business when their whole balance sheet is a dumpster fire yeah. a colorful way of putting it, but genuinely this is where you do call the financial giants, they know all the tricks and people to call upon to get out of a liquidity crisis. if rumors are correct there's probably nothing that can be done, but if there is something they'll take a pound of flesh and make it happen.

How do you save too big to fail crypto exchanges/banks when the whole source of "value" in crypto world is that there is supposed to be no fed that can just activate the printing presses to bail their asses? Sure, they can print whatever amount of butts to cover their butt loses but that would only reveal the trick.

Main Paineframe posted:the source of value in crypto world isn't that there's no fed, it's that they get to control the fed Sure, but the lie behind the value is that there will only ever be 21 million butts, and that they cannot be duplicated, etc, etc. which most people getting suckered in don't realize is not true. And since those suckers are the real source of value you have to thread carefully not to reveal that crypto is more fiat than fiat.
