So basically the stock market is zero sum game, therefore all stocks are worthless and must be a scam/ponzi.

The value of any currency is in how much people trust it. The only reason why the USD is worth anything is only because people trust it. If that trust is lost, the currency value goes to zero.

Bitcoin has trust because it's not susceptible to a centralized entity that manipulates it, overprints it, or freezes people's accounts. Once LN is mainstream, you'll see more places that accept bitcoin than they do Paypal.

yes, my point is everything gets hacked. When a website gets hacked, you don''t lose much except maybe a login / password (which is useless if you use different passwords for each site). When a smart contract gets hacked, people can lose actual money

Throughout history we see time and time again manmade technology replacing traditional systems. Of course its easy to dismiss and say the human mind arbitrates a contract better than a computer and although it may be the truth now that idea becoming obsolete is not hard to imagine. The truth is the machine solution is better in many cases right now, when the terms of the contract are objective and machine-understandable. As we are better able to translate reality into machine-readability we will see smart contracts flourish.

Holy shit, do these people not realise how this isn't any different from the stock market? Furthermore they've created this ridiculous "true believer criminal scammer" strawman and they project it onto cryptocurrency traders all the damn time.

You can drop just a tiny bit of money into cryptocurrency and make a killing if you're not a brainlet, and the same gains would require a much larger investment and much more time in stocks. Provided you don't invest what you can't lose in the first place, there is no problem with it.

You literally have to be a fucking idiot not to enter cryptocurrency during the dips. Risky? Sure, but the volatility that makes it risky also makes it very profitable if you're not dumb as fuck.

These people are coping hard and they're trying to get some sort of moral high ground to suppress their inner desire to kill themselves.

>People were made to run computers, computers are not made to run people.

First of all, says fuckin who? Second of all computers already 'run' your life, you faggot. You're talking to me through one and using computational conventions. All the automation that's being done is a computer 'running' shit for you. But I guess you're pretty hard-coded in your beliefs (heh) and like to draw imaginary lines between things because they make you feel better or someshit.

>What benefit does a smart contract give over a traditional contract?

Oh my god.
>He doesn't see how programmable money means instant transaction when conditions are met
>Means the solution to cumbersome outdated systems where problems still arise because of human fuckery
>Easy example is the casino industry where an online casino could be run by smart contracts, viewable on the blockchain to be provably fair, and serve hundreds of thousands of customers a day. Instant transactions would make this a dream for many gamblers.

>Programs and computers will always have bugs to exploit.

Again, how do you fucking know these things? You don't know what the future of technology looks like and what solutions could be implemented to reduce and/or eliminate bugs and exploits to zero percent.

At this point I think I'm going to stop though, was a nice writing exercise but you don't seem like you're even interested in the technology. Hope whoever was looking to learn more genuinely did though, feel free to ask any questions.

Not to mention they could have made a ton of money if they had just stuck a few bucks in at the time. Bitcoin price was between $2 and $13 over the course of 2012 (when that subreddit was created). They could have made between 1,000-10,000 times their initial investment if they hadnt been so caught up in trying to appear smarter than everyone.

Now that its clear they were wrong about bitcoins future they just cling to random scamcoins that they imagine are the entirety of the crypto market. They deserve what they get.

IS this why everyone in the world got rich off of the dot com bubble? No one ever thought it was a fad and everyone was convinced it would change the world immediately!

Oh wait no... major commenters were still saying shit liked THIS in 1998:
>”The growth of the Internet will slow drastically, as the flaw in 'Metcalfe's law'-which states that the number of potential connections in a network is proportional to the square of the number of participants-becomes apparent: most people have nothing to say to each other! By 2005 or so, it will become clear that the Internet's impact on the economy has been no greater than the fax machine's."

Actually... experts believed personal computers and the internet weren't a fad and that it was the future. But most of the public believed it was a passing fad, and many people openly ridiculed these experts and thought these "toys" were worthless.

There was a dot com boom sure, but for a large time before that, the internet was mocked. After the dot com crash, the internet was mocked again.

I feel like they just have a fundamental misunderstanding about crypto. Bitconnect was an obvious scam, and so has pretty much every major ponzi scheme recently. Mt Gox and to an extent Raiblox are the only notable ones I can remember that I can understand someone doing a basic amount of dd being suckered by.

I feel like they do very little research and just parrot the anti-crypto twitter celebs, and cant fathom the positive impact blockchain tech and smart contracts can have.

financial surveillance, if you don't think money usage should be anonymous you should also think everyone's voting history should be publicly available, this is dangerous for obvious reasons, and having several private companies witness every transaction you make gives enough info where it's effectively the same.

Fungibility, political powers shouldn't be able to prevent funding of political opponents IE the United States establishment has unlawfully prohibited credit card companies/banks from sending money to wikileaks

Availability; no downtime, no bank maintenance, no way to steal/freeze your account. With current banking you do not own your money, you are not in control of it, and there is no guarantee that banks need to give you back what you put in
