    You lost me at brave Anyone even remotely accosiating with crypto, let alone making their own and integrating it, is not to be trusted.

    There are many things to list but here is by favourite, they said you can tip creators with their garbage coin Turns out some creators did not apply, you could still donate, where did the money go? Sure as shit didnt to the creator

        since when has crypto ever been private, it literally advertises itself with the fact you can track every single purchase anyone has ever made by simply knowing their wallet adrress

          Nope, read the Bitcoin white paper. But that was an old coin with some issues that are clear in hindsight and have been fixed in prkvscy coins like zcash & monero.

            even if that claim is true, crypto is still hot garbage that never has done any good to the world what did crypto actually do that was positive, something that isnt some esoteric cryptobro bullshit can you actually, genuinely tell me one, hell, two things crypto actually does that is good?

            and please dont come at me with financial security or freedom, cause that is a bunch of baloney

              Provided an alternative reserve currency that isn’t controlled by countries clearly trying to gain economic domination over smaller nations.

                Not controlled by countries and also making it so extremely volatile that it can loose its value literally in seconds

                  It’s that there is significant institutional support to keep the current monitory regime in power. There have been plenty of volatile state controlled currencies too.

        We all know that whenever someone says “crypto” they mean cryptocurrency and nfts. Pretending we’re talking about cryptographic security is not helping anyone.

          It depends, while all transactions from accounts is known, the details for the owners of the account don’t have to be.

              Go point all mine out for everyone if it’s so easy.

              As a fault, that isn’t much of one. That transparency makes sure every single coin in a blockchain is where it’s supposed to be and accounted for.

              You have no idea who random string of hashed numbers is unless they (for some reason) make it public, usually… influencers.
