it's literally just exchanging electricity into digital money
it's not even representing something physical per se
that's how banks do it
like I mean
i mean, say what you want about the dollar
but it has some sort of backup
they're both pixels on a screen whether it's GayPal, Shitcoin, or a bank account
in the end bitcoin is still controlled by groups anyways
china has these huge ass caves that only mine bitcoin 24/7
of course
how can tech savy people invest large amounts in bit coins?
the next revolution in computing speed will make all your bitcoin amounts worthless
and a crash your paper money not?
invest in realdolls
bitcoins were always highly unstable
only used by drug dealers and Greeks
at least paper money can be backed by something
and I'd rather trust something like the Swiss Franc which has been stable and predictable for a century than some 1s and 0s
then in the end, every currency could crash. The point of bit coin is: we know it will inevitably happen
ye try getting a bank to prove they have that much money
95% of transactions are drugs/fraud etc
it can be tracked
chinks artificially inflate it
@Tonmonkeyla see monero, verge
I'm confused. Why do people keep saying China is futuristic ? Do they mean like dystopian kind of futuristic ?
It's moderately modern in the cities, but it's so far from futuristic, I don't know why people keep saying that. I think people equate the future with a million skyscrapers
I don't
I have never heard this. It's pretty cyberpunk though. Seedy underbelly under a veneer of government control with mega corporations
In fact, I'd say Japan and Korea are way more futuristic. They enjoy technology that never got adapted in America, or was too overpriced
In serpentza he said Shenzhen is one of the most futuristic cities in the world
His most recent video
>following vloggers
I think people get that from the growth and scale of Chinese cities then.
its also futuristics in infrastructural support perspective compared to all other countries
mostly logistical,population density,Broadband and Wireless band scales
FIRST
Yeah this is the video I am referencing
The cities might be modern but the people are outdated
It makes for a weird surreal feeling, like it's not a real place.
