I met a real life bitcoiner the other day, it was a trippy experience. he's not a true believer, just trying to make money and claims to be doing so successfully. I pretended not to know anything about bitcoins.

haha, you thought you agreed to have sex with me, but in fact this greasy nerd is the real owner of the sexcoin and if you refuse to follow through on this transaction then it is reverse-rape.

the obsession with the blockchain is that it is "the literal truth". I.e., anything in it cannot be a lie because math has proven that it is true and can't be faked. in a world of shades of gray, the blockchain is black and white. they find it comforting, it is the one thing they can put their faith in. humans can't be trusted, laws can't be trusted, only the literal truth of the blockchain can be trusted absolutely. everything else flows from that. now replace blockchain with the bible and math with God and congratulations now you understand that bitcoin is a religion. but it is a religion tailored to sperg libertarian anti-society idiots that promises wealth, power, and freedom from the vagaries of human society.

DaTroof posted:i get a similar impression from libertarian faith in "the invisible hand" it is in that there is no reality backing the concept of the invisible hand, it just feels true and is a very easy concept to believe in because of its purity and lack of responsibility.

Greyhawk posted:one thing i've noticed that's not just related to libertarians or their ilk, is anyone calling themselves "non-violent" is usually actually using that word as code for "i would really really like to kick your rear end, but i'm a scrawny dude and i'd probably get my butt whooped instead" they are non-violent unlike your statist police forces and tax man. in libertarian paradise these things don't exist but neither do armed gangs, organized crime bosses, or armies for hire because it is in their rational self interest to be non-violent. if someone breaks into your house, murders your family, and settles in it to live, you can give them a scammer tag.

the irony of libertarians being smacked hard by the realities of capitalism and the invisible hand moving money out of their pockets and into those of scammers is the real magic of bitcoins.

none of this ever happened because no cop knows what bitcoins are, nobody was just carrying around printed wallets to give to people, and I'm pretty sure there are no black people that use bitcoins because libertarians are racist as gently caress the whole post is get mad about the state and look at how bitcoins defeated them

Jesus loving Christ don't debate or take medical advice from fishmech I dated a girl that studied in Africa so now I can't give blood. it turns out that it's not a right to give blood and since I'm in a high risk group then I won't risk someone else's life due to my ignorance like a goon that knows better than everyone else.
