idk why this moron can't figure out that pointing out that some non-bitcoin companies still offer goods and services is not a defense of capitalism. in "normal" capitalism, industries are incentivized to transition to rent-seeking to keep profits up, but since bitcoin is just capitalism speedrun, all bitcoin-related companies have already gone past trying to sell a product and just moved to pure middleman status

like sure an untraceable medium of exchange with no central backer would probably be useful to aid attempts to "smash the state" or whatever, but this is the thread about bitcoin, a highly centralized extremely traceable transaction ledger that barely functions as a medium of exchange

LanceHunter posted:I'm trying to remember where someone posted the screed about how bitcoin was the solution to the biggest problem in cryonics. No, not "cryonics is hokum that cannot work", but "once they've frozen you, what motivation is there to thaw you out?" Their idea was to put some bitcoin in a brainwallet, so that in the far future when hyperbitcoinization has happened and there is near-perfect technology, people will want to thaw you out/resurrect you so that they can get a share of the enormous wealth that you can only be access when you are alive. So, by hodling bitcoin you will eventually overcome death itself, to be resurrected in a glorious i was gonna say that it's pretty far fetched that future citizens, when faced with an economic system where all the world's power is concentrated in the hands of few decaying liches who are dependent on those same citizens to continue living, would just keep playing along instead of revolting but then realized i'm describing current times too
