It’s still there for them to use if they want.

Also, the capitalist overlords of our time (right now) already “seek control over others” and are actively dissuading people from using Monero.

I don’t know any commies against currencies though.

In any case, it’s still there for them to use if they want.

Yes,

And Monero is the communist money.

And Monero is the alt-right money.

And Monero is the alt-left money.

And Monero is the extreme-center money.

It is money for the collectivists, the individualists, the mercantilists, the financialists,…
Monero means money.

Did you read the post?

Or do you mean that Monero is not for this or that group because they don’t have brains?

The first part of the privacy disclaimer is not correct.
If you use this script, CoinMarketCap will not know about any amount displayed on your browser, they will not know about how much you have in your bank account when you visit your banking website with this script.

The second part is very correct, be careful using random people 's scripts, read the source code to see what it really does.

Please read it, and let us know if that changed any of your views, particularly about decentralization. Right now, it seems that you think btc is very decentralized while Roger thinks it’s very centralized around Blockstream.

Feel free to make a new post, I am genuinely interested in other POVs.

Thank you! I was thinking that people on this instance were downvoting the post right after seeing the title, and without reading it. It makes more sense now.

Why the downvotes?

Thanks! Please share it far and wide

That’s actually a great idea, I didn’t have an account but here it is: https://mastodon.social/@ArseneSpeculoos
I will be posting this episode and the next ones there too, thanks!

I agree with you, degen gambling is currently the most successful use-case but it is not the only one and many new ones are coming, also thanks to the success of that use-case.

I have nothing against degen gambling personally. Here I mean that among the ways people use it right now, degen gambling is the most popular.
The way I see it the underlying tech is just a tool that can be used to achieve this or that goal.
Degen gambling is not an intrinsic attribute of cryptocurrencies and I think that saying that it is the current killer app does not tarnish the tool or the goals of people creating/using it.

In another episode I should discuss more what I mean by degen gambling I guess.

What do you think of the other point: “The US Dollar, the Euro, the Japanese Yen,… fiat money is also degen gambling.”?
