      True and its also not compareable to gold.

      But as long as others giving you real money for this garbage, it would be better to use it for a project like neovim :)

         To never have experienced a usefulness of cryptocurrency is a privileged position to be in.

            Ah yes lets ignore the tons of co2 which has direct impact of primarily poor people around the whole globe and the energy stealing which also is happening through bitcoin to make the case for alll of this for a handful of techsavy people in a handful of countries who are apparently now able to get their money through crypto but also have to now find people taking this?

            Yeah no.

            You know what happened in el salvador? A Lot of people got their initial crypto stolen.

            And you know what real people do? They use euros and dollars as hard cash. Like i have seen in Iran.

               That's true for bitcoin, but not for cryptocurrencies in general. Especially those that moved to proof-of-stake.
