Okay, so I'm 56 years old and gotta say this places has brought me a lot of fucking joy and a good deal of profit. I made a good deal of money on FTM and LUNA by lurking here. I can't remember how I came about finding this board but man oh man, it's saved me in a lot of ways and I'm really serious about that. Anyhow for all those that complain about /biz, it's actually a really good community in my opinion. Sardonic? yes. Somewhat racist and homophobic? meh. Hysterical and really fucking on point? almost always. Thanks for the good times bizbros.

I think it depends on whether or not if Fantom will survive as a project.

its been running with the same hype as other defi projects which have mainly been proven to be scams.

i dont think the fanton foundation itself is a scam. I believe there is other utility for the coin, however the general distrust in crypto and defi projects will devastate fantom in the coming days. Fantom will have to emerge an honest champion of utility as well as increasing their market value by expanding their utility outside of defi, and becoming champions there too

This motherfucker is the guy spamming the board with cat pictures and other shit Lebanon is a long time serial beggar that posts in XMR threads for the last two years begging people and wishing that America gets hit with hyperinflation.
Why he's still here after two years is beyond me but he absolutely needs to be ranged.

Yeah, the chans are unironically the only place that still feel like the internet did originally. Everything else is completely fake, gay, and ADD infested. Miss MUDs, miss usenet, miss making fun of Compuserv/AOL fags, simple as.
