I really think crypto MIGHT be dead/dying this time. Not sure, but things feel bad

5@sun@shitposter.world A return back to normal doesn't mean it's dead.
Maybe it will actually become a decentralized currency for nerds again instead of speculative investments for rich boomers who have never written a single line of code.
@SuperDicq I want that too
@sun@shitposter.world Wont be worth nearly as much though. As it will just be a bunch of nerds like us buying drugs on a darknet market or something instead of Elon Musk hyping up memecoins or whatever.
@SuperDicq @sun Bitcoin, ETH and Monero already have valid uses besides just buying drugs on Tor. It would be way easier to send lain crypto than go through a bank, because my bank doesn't like UAE still last time I checked.
@phnt@fluffytail.org @sun@shitposter.world Yeah fuck banks honestly. I'm all for decentralized currencies, not just for drugs of course.
But holy shit I hate what cryptobros have turned crypto into.

Comes with any community like this. I hate gnubros the same if not worse as cryptobros. Ignore them and most of the problems magically go away since they don't do anything actually meaningful anyway.
The difference is that crypto attracted lots of wealthy people seeking a profit, which tips the balance to the point they now have some influence.

Same with infosectards. Those are probably even more insuferable.

@phnt @SuperDicq the problem with crypto is, we won't get less sick until rats abandon the ship. but right now the small rats are abandoning ship but the large ones are joining up and launching stablecoin platforms etc. so it's getting waaay worse not better. imo
@phnt @SuperDicq so like it's not even "cryptobros" killing everything right now, they are helping, but mainly its tradfi adoption lol
@phnt@fluffytail.org @sun@shitposter.world I remember having 0.25 BTC that I mined on a single gaming GPU and selling it for like 400 euro and getting myself a moped at age 16.
Really should've saved those BTC until 205 and I could've paid off my entire student debt but then again I do have a lot of cool memories driving that moped though.
