It's because I'm old enough to remember when people didnt trust 'putting their credit card on the internet' people dislike and fear things that they do not yet understand. especially the knuckledraggers that believe everything they see on TV. but perceptions change with time. Normans will FOMO in but it has to be dumbed down and simple for them to do it.


just connecting to the internet back in the 90s was an ordeal that is long since forgotten because of how easy it is now. I expect something similar for crypto and blockchain tech, it will be idiot-proofed (on the front end, think iPhones) for the average Norman to trust it.

>>55318171
>Everyone hates crypto
A fantasy. Mass adoption is coming because large corporations and Wall Street banks will make a fortune off crypto.

>>55318171
I didn't start buying crypto until early 2022. When you aren't actively looking into it, you'll find that most of the media coverage about crypto is negative. It's scams, collapsing companies, Silk Road, etc. That's all I really knew about crypto until recently, and I'm a fairly open guy in my early-30s.

>>55318171
People outside of this sub are majority apathetic to Crypto, then there is a fringe group that actually hates crypto. My experience isn’t that most people hate it though, at least the people I know.

>>55318788
Most people don't hate crypto they just think you are an idiot for buying it.

>>55318883
Nah, those are the loud minority, and they skew the reality. The people we’re talking about you never notice because they don’t speak up about crypto because they barely know about it and don’t have strong enough feelings to weigh in.

>>55318171
I canvassed my work colleagues on if they'd buy BTC or ETH:
"Hell, naw man"
"Crypto is a scam"
"No way, that's a ponzi"
"I don't know anywhere that accepts BTC"
"My bank warned me to avoid it"
"It's racist"
"What is ETH, it sounds like a weight loss drug"

>>55318551
Crypto has a long way to go before mass adoption. It is difficult to use, it is risky, but I do believe in the underlying purpose. I don't recommend crypto to my family, because frankly, I do not trust my parents to use it safely. We need to fix that

The only reason I know Bitcoin is a good investment is because people are shitty.
People are greedy little pieces of shit. Crypto's existence is proof enough. It does nothing, helps no one, causes environmental decay and still people don't care and buy it for the pricetag alone.
It will never die, because people will always be pieces of fucking garbage.

>>55318171
Im here unironically for the tech
check rebate (rbe) using uniswap v3 if you don't believe me
the people who've never touched an economy book won't understand ofc but cryptographic tech + liquidity bands are the future of the global economy, and we are all here early. Some call dibs some don't

>>55318171
Blockchain is being adopted like any other useful technology in computing.

It's just that adopting it doesn't mean anyone has to buy your bags. Outside of BTC and ETH there is no native currency for blockchain that inherits value from its adoption.

There are countless languages, protocols, formats, etc. that have been developed to make the internet and computation what they are today. It is just technology that has certain useful applications.

Blockchain was developed in conjunction with Bitcoin, which is supposed to be internet money. This led to the idea that blockchain and money are tied together. They aren't.

People don't need to buy your bags to use HTTPS, and they don't need to buy your bags to use blockchains. It's just a kind of technology that opportunists and scammers used to leech money off of people in a speculative bubble built around hype for something they don't understand.

>>55318291
You are their exit liquidity

>>55318923
Everyone hates crypto when it’s down, and everybody wants it when it’s going up.

Hard money is highly desirable systemically as it forces positive sum activity, hard money however WAS impractical to use, being replaced by soft money hundreds of years ago. History has proven that 'backed' soft money will always be abused, the difficultly inherent in past hard money makes verification etc unwieldy, leading backed soft money to become unbacked over time. But the systemic economic value of hard money remains, BTC (all PoW Crypto really) is hard money that's easy to use, that is it's value. It is not in competition with the financial system, it is in competition with fiat. BTC will continue to grow as long as statists debase, which they will never stop doing as debasement is the lever which they use to manipulate the economy. You see powerful parasites and say "they are too powerful, we can't fight them" Economy sees powerful parasites and says "so much free value!". BTC is the sword Economy wields to slay the parasites, BTC's Becoming is guaranteed by the systemic economic value gained by fiat's demise.

It's being fixed already. Immunify for example is working on improving the data management system most especially for hospitals in Africa, privacy and security are also being tackled by Monero, Oasis, Azero amongst others.

>>55318171
>Doesn't matter if it's a "blue chip" or a frog coin.
Blue chips matter especially if you want to make it. There are a lot of blue chips on Zealy that you can get for free.

>>55318244
One critical difference: blockchain is not standing between me and unlimited free porn. What motivation would any normal person have to want to figure out how to use crypto? The internet sold itself

>>55318171
You're a psychopath.

>>55319517
See: >>55319378

Forcing positive sum activity is immensely valuable, but was transactionally disfavoured, think of an chemical reaction with HUGE delta-g but very high activation energy. BTC (PoW Crypto) gets us over the hump.

>>55318171
People hate crypto because
>They got burned with their shitty alt bags
They will forget this in 4-5 years. They always forget. Normies have no memory. Trust me I know many normies
>They read headlines that say not to buy it
Once the headlines shift the cattle will shift their opinions. I know plenty of normies that recite headlines word for word like it's their own opinions

>>55319777
Absolutely, mate! You hit the nail on the head with that analogy. BTC and its Proof-of-Work (PoW) consensus mechanism are like the catalyst in that chemical reaction you mentioned. Sure, the activation energy might be high, but once it's overcome, the positive-sum activity kicks in.

The more we have real-life utilities, the more we introduce normies in the space. Real-life utilities equal more adoption.

There are negative aspects associated with crypto, zoom out and see the potential impact and broader benefits in the society.

You use your crypto to incentivize AI then you use the AI to market your crypto and then you use your AI to write businesses for you.

It doesnt solve any real world probs besides dodging some laws. Otherwise its just a shitty unregistered penny stock.

>>55318171
Do not focus on cryptobros but on nations welcoming crypto. Kek, UK, UAE, China, and many other countries are positioning for it. UAR endorsed CryptMi and is also built a crypto centre.

>>55320062
False. You fail to realize the inefficiencies generated by fiat

>>55321225
Bitcoin solves money.

The entire fiat grift rests on debasement outpacing wage growth, such that real wages fall while assets inflate (parasitic transfer of resources from income earners to oligarchs), wages have been rising around 5%/yr, hence Fed will keep real inflation above 5% to fuck over workers [written before Jay the Faggot bitched out]. PoW crypto allows workers to opt out of the fiat grift, Bitcoin will pump because statist fucking shits won't stop debasing.

Its going to be forced on them when the current system collapses. They won't have a say in the matter.

>>55318171
This here is the truth.
Clowns like Changpeng Zhao and Sam Bankman-Fried are not modern day Robin Hoods either. They don't want to protect little people against the corrupt, jewish bankers. They want to replace them and become the new global elite. All the cryptocunts just want to become rich. They don't want justice, that's why they turn a blind eye on obvious frauds. At the end of the day, this bunch is no better than the federal reserve. The only difference is, crypto people are incompetent losers, with no style. I mean, Binance, Bittirex, Nexo, Bitfiniex, FTX, Terra, Luna? Really? How can you trust shit that have such ridiculous, childish names? Only an idiot takes this seriously.

>>55323774

You're dumb right?

I can't even get paid without crypto because of the central bank of my country won't allow .

But neverminded, you are probably a paid shill or too low IQ to understand how crypto solves payments worldwide.

They specifically despise the crypto/nft bro amateur douchebaggery because to them that's all crypto appears to be. When regulators, institutions and asset managers begin getting seriously involved and the sheen of professionalism arrives they will be quick to change their tune

>>55324761
No it didn't. As a general rule they won't touch this shit until there are clear regulations and at the moment gensler is being a huge cuck. Other countries are making progress with regulations though

>>55324774
and it's tech has been used in variety of applications, including gaming, entertainment, and especially education.

>>55323690
Hahaha, don't be a cringe and drop some solid redpills that make this a dank hold. When you're talking about real-world implementations, you gotta mention the sick Crypto payment game with the use of xMoney or the mad blockchain skills pulled off by the devs, just like Aptos did. But I'm not sure if you're ready to step up to this epic conversation

>>55323755
Haha, bruh, you hit the nail on the head! Crypto has been the absolute chad of finance for like, forever, man.

the fundamental problem is that the things genuine bitcoin proponents like are the things normies and central banks don't like
they WANT to surveil transactions, chargeback, insure, etc.

I completely agree with you. We definitely require more platforms like QanPlatform.

Plenty of stores and websites now support Apple Pay / Google Pay which keeps your payment information private from merchants. You also have to securely confirm the amount being charged with the payment platform for the transaction to succeed, not with a PIN but something far more secure like on-device biometric authentication.

>pay multiple percent fees on top of tax for every purchase for the "convenience" of using what god's chosen graciously provide the goyim for their convenience

In the developed world (i.e. not the USA) card companies have a 0.2-0.3% cap on fees. Individual EU countries can opt to set their caps even lower.

>wait hours or days for payment to finally settle / appear in history

Again, not in the developed world (i.e. not the USA).

>not care that the medium of exchange loses purchasing power every nanosecond of every day and is a built-in "feature" (Fed annual inflation goal is 2%)
>have my purchase data sold to third parties / used by surveillance state
>can have account frozen for having wrongthink

Libertarian goldbug shit. The point of money is for it to find its way into productive uses (aka investments), not to sit in a vault indefinitely and magically grow in value. And unless you either live in places like Venezuela or Iran or deal in the black market, there's no rational justification for schizo-level paranoia.

>>55340218
We have seen Mastercard and Binance, CryptMi and Visa and also Polygon and Nike. The future is quite promising, I must say.

>>55340218
Hell yeah anon, the gaming industry is totally spearheading this sh*t! Web2 games are straight up migrating to the glorious realm of web3. And let me tell you, Oreprotocol is making that transition smoother than a greased-up rollercoaster. Web2 to web3 is gonna be an absolute game-changer, my dude

>>55318171
Hey retarded noob. Cryptobros are now focusing on the enhanced data automation and optimization capabilities provided by DePIN projects like peaq, iotex, etc, Faggot.

>>55319484
Not just on Zealy Anon. I took part in the KREST public sale on allianceblock Fundr . This makes me eligible for the PEAQ airdrop.

>>55318171
Pretty much.

Basically all of crypto is a ponzi (including BTC), where the only purpose is to make money by selling to the next sucker at an higher price.

Nobody uses it for productive purposes and nobody even has any incentive to do so. Why? Because crypto is by design limited in number, which again means that as more people acquire it its price goes up....which means nobody uses it as a currency - since you would lose money by making transactions with it i.e by selling it - but as a speculative asset to "hodl" and make money (again by selling to the next sucker for real currency).

The same features that people worship about BTC or other cryptos, are the features that ensure its failure as a currency.
And that's why after 15 years people are still here saying "muh mass adoption is imminent!".
Mark my words the situation will be the same when we reach the 20 years anniversary.

On the other hand fiat is literally the opposite, it incentivizes people to spend on real consumption and investment goods, instead of hoarding useless bits or papers.

How's this possible, jeet?
How will web2 be connected to web3, when they are separate web

>>55318291
nice oldfag picrel, this is now an ancient bitcoin meme thread.

>>55340218
Having an L1 project powering EOT and IoT will bridge the gap between DeFi and conventional finance, and might potentially improve adoption, anon.

>>55340599
With Oreprotocol, you can connect web2 to web3 by using your web2 logins to register for their decentralized solution, this will store your ID on their platform without third-party access.

>>55340640
The real adoption is that privacy is coming to DeFi game now. And guess what? Beef finance just dropped a bombshell by integrating privacy into their system. Now you can earn that sweet yield without sacrificing your anonymity, baby! It's like having the best of both worlds. Get in on the action and enjoy the gains while keeping your identity down low

btc will work because of its ability to harness human greed and laziness, which are infinite

Crypto was created to arrive to cbdcs.
The ultimate control of money, our tool of control.
Everything useful for that will be worth money.
Buy LINK, HBAR, QNT.
And XMR, who knows.

>jeet maxipad thinks btc offers privacy and lacks reading comprehension

>>55318171
i'm some rando, not usually a /biz/ type but i know what crypto is good for, illicit things. I wanted to buy some drugs recently and they stopped taking credit cards. crypto is for crime.

>>55341345
BTC, bros, it's all about that open ledger shit, right? But lemme tell ya, if you wanna keep your biz on the down-low, there's some sick privacy protocols out there. We got zcash, we got Railgun, and who knows what else? Keep it hush-hush and make that crypto game strong.

>>55318171
You say this like it's news or something. Yes, nobody is "in it for the tech" that meme died a long time ago. You could argue the crypto space still had standards in 2017 when people would still read white papers and invest in "legit" projects, but now? fuck no, two animal coins went into the top 10, crypto is a joke and will never be used for anything except gambling and scamming.

>>55340996
Yo, bro! You hit the nail on the head! Privacy is the real deal in the DeFi game right now, stackin up that tasty yield without having to give up your anonymity, is like havin' the sickest combo ever.

>>55341308
I'd rather roll with RAIL & SCRT, these bad boys are privacy protocol tokens, ya know? XMR is a legit privacy coin, but damn, those SEC dogs are sniffin' 'em out like crazy, Stay low-key and play it smart

>>55340599
Nothing is impossible in crypto

>>55340216
zksnarks is where it's happening in the blockchain space right now, no doubt

You ask a normal person if they agree with the fundamental tenets of Bitcoin they'll go "oh that makes sense, I actually agree with that!". But as soon as something scary happens like FTX (which has nothing to do with Bitcoin) they'll cry for government daddy and protection. People say they want decentralization and less goverment control over money but they actually don't.

>>55343619
Hell yeah, it's fucking mind-blowing to rake in those gains while keepin' your sick damn ass on the down-low, bro! Privacy is slowly but surely takin' over the DeFi space

>>55343787
With zksnarks, you can unleash some next-level cryptographic wizardry and keep your shenanigans hidden from prying eyes while maintaining transparency

>>55318171
Mass adoption and access to crypto-oriented strategies is highly possible. Anons are harvesting investment strategy profits using AstraDAO's Treasury.

>>55340469
That's a lot of technical stuff you said there anon
I do know that web3 based comms app like sylo prioritize data protection though

This thread just proves OP right.

Absolute delusion, moving goalposts, pure copium about blockchain technology, future money, institutional investments and other bullshit.

Sprinkle in posts from obvious as fuck retard marketers trying to shill their scams (all of them complete scams), you can see why cryptobros are subhumn trash.

Wtf this thread has been up for a week

>>55318171
dont look at the chart faggot

>thread posted 3 days ago
dead board

>>55318291
>Mass adoption is coming-
sure thing retard, in how long?, two more weeks?.
ahahahahhah

>>55343941
Still doesn't stop your data from getting sold, so what's the point? Kek

>>55344468
It's been coming since 2020 hahaha

>>55318171
except once all money becomes electronic and regulated, people are gonna really start to see the value in decentralization for their illicit activity. never forget bitcoin became popular because of the dark web in the first place.

>>55344562
You don't get it do you?
Your data in this case can't be sold or accessed because it's on the blockchain

so no chance of you finding ads related to what you just told your nigger friend about on call

>>55344591
In essence, illicit activity is also a form of use case for cryptos?

>>55344864
I don't think that's what he meant

>>55344848
That shit is real, most of your conversation is being listened to and sold for targeted ads

>>55321120
Bait. When the government prints cash, they're effectively nullifying whatever transaction you were going to make with your cash. Yes, I can hide cash transactions to an extent, but if the supply of cash doubles then that dramatically reduces my ability to buy anything, traceable or not. You can identify the owner of a bitcoin, but you can't make a new one for free or confiscate it. Gold fails on the second point. Cash fails both.

>>55344864
"Illicit" is not a technical definition, if you can ban "illicit" activity from a money then you can also ban licit activity for political reasons, peer-to-peer money is censorship resistant, that is a use case for crypto, yes.

>>55343742
You're right chad. I was impressed when I found out the innovation from DEPINS to convert robots to valuable service providers.
