No, we are simply extracting value from the broken Fiat system. If I borrow 500 Tether buy Bitcoin with it, it does an x10 and give 500 Tether back, did I rob someone? No he gave me 500 USD he got 500 USD back + interest it's just that the USD lost value and he didn't even notice

That depends. Seeing as smart investments are supposed to make society more productive and technologically rich in the long run, one could argue that the acquirement of money is a positive sum game. More specifically, that it enables the rich to control a greater percentage of the total wealth but it also lifts poor people out of poverty via technological innovation; enabling them to not only have more free time but also making them more efficient and productive in the time that they do choose to spend.

This is objectively false. If I take a piece of worthless trash metal, melt it, and forge it into a useful tool, then sell that to a carpenter. I now have created money from a tool, the carpenter can now make more money because he can do his job faster with said tool. Value is created all the time, this is how economics work.

Now as to whether this happens with crypto, I can't see that it does.

I hole-hardedly agree, but allow me to play doubles advocate here for a moment. For all intensive purposes I think you are wrong. In an age where false morals are a diamond dozen, true virtues are a blessing in the skies. We often put our false morality on a petal stool like a bunch of pre-Madonnas, but you all seem to be taking something very valuable for granite. So I ask of you to mustard up all the strength you can because it is a doggy dog world out there. Although there is some merit to what you are saying it seems like you have a huge ship on your shoulder. In your argument you seem to throw everything in but the kids Nsync, and even though you are having a feel day with this I am here to bring you back into reality. I have a sick sense when it comes to these types of things. It is almost spooky, because I cannot turn a blonde eye to these glaring flaws in your rhetoric. I have zero taller ants when it comes to people spouting out hate in the name of moral righteousness. You just need to remember what comes around is all around, and when supply and command fails you will be the first to go. Make my words, when you get down to brass stacks it doesn't take rocket appliances to get two birds stoned at once. It's clear who makes the pants in this relationship, and sometimes you just have to swallow your prize and accept the facts. You might have to come to this conclusion through denial and error but I swear on my mother's mating name that when you put the petal to the medal you will pass with flying carpets like it’s a peach of cake.

>> No.24541078

In a literal, personal, short-term sense? Yes. But that's a myopic perspective. You cannot control the actions of others. Your decisions to buy and sell do not directly correlate to the fiscal downfall of other people - that hinges entirely on their individual decisions of when to buy and sell. There's a gulf between "making it" and "financial ruin," and the actions of one person cannot swing that pendulum alone. Even a whale cannot influence the market that much, because the buying power of even a few hundred hodlers can mitigate that impact. Otherwise, the market would crash on a daily basis.

Just accept the fact that monogamy is fucking dead forever. She's not "your girl", it's just your turn. Who cares if a slut sleeps around, as long as she doesn't infect you with something? You just have to realize that the only value women have is their holes, and then realize that the value of those holes is low anyway. Once you truly, deeply understand how detestable women are, it becomes a lot easier to interact with them without heartache or stress.

fuck anon, I might be posting cringe at this point but here it goes

honestly, it just sounds so nice to have someone with you that you really care about, and that person cares about you too
i mean, I used to constantly fall in love just a few years ago, but now I feel like all those feelings are gone, and I'll never experience emotions as I used to - which sucks because I've been able to fully appreciate those times
it kinda sucks being grown up anon, ngl
it's also really stressful with all of the work and obligations and not having time to do anything, it's tiresome and most of the time I don't really feel like talking to anyone when I'm so stressed out, changes my mood completely
