I. Hate. Cryptocurrencies.

There are no redeeming qualities. None. There’s a hardware shortage everywhere, they gobble energy supply in a completely unsustainable model, and almost everyone involved is only doing this to make money…in another currency. https://twitter.com/justincormack/status/1386614703145852929">https://twitter.com/justincor...

The entire thing is based around consuming energy and occupying hardware. The value is 100% imaginary. The system is based on a perceived value, and given people are in and out to make money off that perception: it’s basically a pyramid scheme.

Cryptocurrencies are a blight.

Oh look, all the bitcoin fanatics are coming to change my mind!

heh, one DM was asking what I tell any friends who like bitcoin.

The same thing I& #39;m telling you here: it& #39;s a blight on the world. Investing in bitcoin is what someone does instead of actually furthering society/humanity. I love ya, but cryptocurrency is beyond stupid.

I& #39;ve spent the past decade trying to make something more efficient, so software devs make other things better for humanity, use fewer resources, etc. All of it to improve in a way that maybe scales just a bit.

Whereas most crypto investors want to burn it for self profit.
