If you don’t want to participate constructively than don’t.

Sorry for the full-on negativity. Not so sorry about the message delivered. My response did not take into account the age of the OP. Thought it was a new one. I am still passionately opposed to new coins. Cryptocoin needs to continue dying, IMO.

Personally I hope crypto succeeds in the long term, but using environmentally-sound methods.

ETH's move to Proof of Stake is a promising candidate, and outside of misuse/abuse of the blockchain for pointless shit like "NFT art" it showed the world that decentralised finance could actually work. Sure, it's not perfect and there have been some high-profile issues with it. But guess what, global banking isn't perfect either, it's rife with corruption, fraud, theft, compute errors, laundering, organised crime syndication, and often at the mercy of corrupt governments or at least corrupt government officials. At least DeFi can potentially defeat some of those problems.

I'm hanging onto 10 of the ETH I mined, having raked in a healthy profit during 2020 and 2021. Maybe it'll become worthless, maybe each ETH will be worth enough that I can retire early. I'm prepared to lose it and don't need the money at its current worth.

Hi,
Thinking you're a tad on the bias side
Bad actors well being bad elected actors is better than individuals or groups to buy into pyramid schemes of fake coins or dictator would be the same just not going to lock you up for not accepting crypocoin as real Venezuela comes to mind

Governments regulations would kill crypo sooner so I'm all for it

Nope, but it's fuel for the discussion that 'bullshit crypto needs to go away'.

That's not an excuse to go offtopic, especially when we have crypto users here.

No I don't like crypto either, I've learned a lot of lessons from it and few of them good ones. But I don't go out of my way to thread crap on a topic about it. You can say no and leave. That's what I did.

Meh, who cares... I'm glad being civil is funny these days. Says a lot about people.

My bias is anti-waste and I'm not trying to hide it; Tokens/coins that are wasteful of silicon and energy are just dumb because the crypto industry has already proved that it's not necessary.

I'm under no illusions that both crypto and fiat are both horrible systems riddled with problems, crime, fraud, and corruption and haven't ever suggested otherwise, I just want there to be an alternative to fiat, because competition is always good for the little people like us.

That's all early crypto users wanted honestly. Shit just got way out of hand.

Hi,
Think the alternative is plastic, just never pay it off
