Buttcoin is the future of online butts. Buttcoin is a peer-to-peer butt. Peer-to-peer means that no central authority issues new butts or tracks butts.

A community for hurling ordure at cryptocurrency/blockchain dweebs of all sorts. We are only here for debate as long as it amuses us. Meme stocks are also on topic.

By popular demand, awful.systems ("the jank is a feature") is now hosting a sub for hurling ordure at crypto dweebs of all sorts. We are only here for debate as long as it amuses us. Meme stocks are also on topic.

There was a buttcoin at https://kbin.social/m/Buttcoin but it never took off and is basically dead. Let's see how we go here. Tell your fellow crypto sufferers!

We're in the Fediverse so you should be able to read and post from other Lemmy servers, from some Mastodon/*oma/*key servers and maybe from kbin servers if the sunspots are aligned, as well as from awful.systems itself. Federation is sorta clunky. The URL to follow is: https://awful.systems/c/buttcoin

the butt is omnipresent. it is our incentive token. our game theory has placed us neatly between the cheeks, the optimum position for sneering at the effluent of the techno optimists

OOTL, can someone explain the accordion bit

Appropriately, "hanuri" in Finnish means "accordion" but it's also a slang term for anus.

the economists can yell all they want, but butts are the only sound store of value

can butts be used for online gambling? you bet your ass

That reminds me of the insane blog post where somebody took a Saylor twitter post saying 'soon bitcoin will go the way of online gambling' as being anti bitcoin and not mocking the anti-bitcoiners, and using it as proof that even the biggest critics of bitcoin change their mind and go all in when they learn more. Yes, that Saylor.

Wonder if I should dig it up and post it here for entertainment value, but it was only one post with zero interactions and I have no idea how long ago it was so feels a bit harrassy.

the sound of value (toilet flushes)

Checking the pulse on bitcoin, my sister in law asked me the other day, "Hey Bitcoin is going up, should I buy?" "Nope."
