except it actually is decentralized. anybody can run a node and contribute and the network adjusts to how many people are contributing.
calling it a "buzzword" and calling people "fools" or whatever doesn't change this fact.
this is why I vote by mail
- it's pseudo anonymous and that doesn't make it a scam. it actually is a great way to track transactions and protect privacy at the same time.
2.transactions take about 8-10 mins.. this makes it a better store of value than spending cash. However, this has been remedied with a 2nd layer application called Lightning Network. And again, this doesnt make it a scam.
- more expensive for some, less for others. for instance, it is a very cheap way to transfer money overseas like for many immigrants who support their families in their native country. where Western Union would take a large cut just to move the money, Bitcoin accomplishes the same exact thing, for pennies.
Maybe you mean you just don't like Bitcoin? That's fair, doesn't make it a scam. Maybe you prefer more anonymous cryptos like monero? That's fair also, still doesn't make Bitcoin a scam.
Personally I prefer Bitcoin because it's decentralized. Nobody owns it or controls it. The people closest to the money printer don't have an advantage over the common people who save in it. Not to mention you aren't surrendering your purchasing power to the government via inflation.
Bitcoin gets thrown in with the other cryptos. people who don't know what they're talking about also do this thanks to the media. Bitcoin is most definitely not a scam.
much of crypto is a scam...bitcoin is not. blackrock and fidelity are just two companies who are heavily invested in its success. the media shouldn't portray bitcoin along with other crypto, but it does. it's too bad.
I read the book years ago and thought it was really good...I still do, and the movie was decent. I always wondered how much of it was actually true. But now I know the guy sold his character and integrity for Donald Trump and that tells you everything you need to know about him.
narrator: however, it was no secret.
tremendous words like you've never heard before
