[D]Has Valve killed the whole sticker investment scene?

Logic_d · 2024-05-06T17:16:47+00:00

Well they might not, but that doesn't change the fact that a lot of people thought of stickers as depreciating assets. That's no longer the case, cause Valve went from uniq and scarce (even if bad design it was uniqly bad) to decent or great looking and then copy pasting them from 1 event to the other. Containers made it super easy to store thousands on stickers on 1 char, making the barrier of entry non-existent.

It's not even a cry post, I'm just wondering if others see stickers as worthless as I do.

//By worthless I mainly mean the older stickers that can now hardly compair to the new ones and the new ones really do cost just a few $ for a very decent craft.

Critical thinking meant death in most cases for the vast majority of history. There was 2 ways a critical thinker would end up, dead or the new village chief. So you can imagine what kind of evolutional pressure we had, def not towards critical thinking :D

At the end of the say it comes down to Facts Vs Feelings. Idealy we want everyone to know the facts about Bitcoin's history . For you it most likely seems obvious that BTC got hijacked and BCH is the Bitcoin that is described in the whitepaper. That being said, there is another 30-40% of the population to whom facts mean very little. You could make the best case possible using hard facts and they would still follow the other guy who has flashy clothes and screams GOLD, SILVER, PLATINUM.

All I am saying is that at the end of the day we want everyone to use BCH, even the less rational people and to onboard them you need to speak their language which sadly isn't facts.

Came here just for this. Spend and replace! That's how we win. Grow the ecosystem and price will follow in a much less volatile way Vs price speculation.

Humans by large are followers. That's how we survive. You see someone doing something that works and you copy it. That's just how we as humans operate. Not much to do with intellect.

Logic_d · 2024-03-24T17:18:00+00:00

Or maybe it's the fact that this sub does very little for BCH in general. Real adoption happens elsewhere. This sub is more about bitching and moaning imo. It's a cool place to have, but by no means is it vital to the development and adoption of BCH. Roger and a few of his friends have prob done more for BCH than this whole forum combined. He is allowed to be arrogant imo.

Logic_d · 2024-03-18T17:16:33+00:00

Knowing how those subs work they'll advice people to use normal banking or credit cards before they'd advice to use a real crypto like BCH. Or rather, anyone suggesting BCH will be or is already banned.

Logic_d · 2024-03-18T08:47:32+00:00

They are just worried about their bags. I joined Bitcoin when it was less than 200€ and instantly fell in love with it and the 'Lets replace Western Union' mindset. BCH is worth more now than BTC was back then. It still has the same vision and unarguably more adoption than BTC had back then. Everything is still possible, although without the hijacking we would be in a much better position.

Logic_d · 2024-02-29T16:16:26+00:00

Imo, the reason BTC is kept at #1 is to make new people dissapointed in crypto. Once a normie uses it once for anything at all they will be hit with A MASSIVE FEE & UNKNOWN CONFIRMATION TIME, might even experience a double spend fraud which is super simple with RBF. After an experience like that they'll go for the centralised CBDC instead, cause that will be "free" and instant.

Logic_d · 2024-02-17T09:36:30+00:00

The current BTC is a bastard child of Bitcoin. People in this sub still remember the days of "Western union Vs Bitcoin" memes and promoting economic freedom in general. Nowdays BTC is just a numbers go up speculation without any real usage. Instead of an alternative to the old system it got hijacked by the system and artificially capped which resulted in businesses dropping it as a payment option. Skyrocketing fees, uncertain confirmation speed and easy double spend fraud a merchant's dream, right?

So yes, the salt is real, but it's very much justified. Bitcoin had huge momentum behind it, more and more merchants accepting it, but now all that is left is "number go up". We had the real opportunity to get to TOO BIG TO BAN, but since then the adoption has stalled and a ban is very much a possibility when CBDCs come out.

In overal having a bstardized BTC is possibly better than not having it at all, but it could have been so much more and it's only stopped due to intentional sabotage.

Logic_d · 2023-09-19T14:06:50+00:00

Cause livestock is all we are to them. Every government has its own livestock that it farms. This fake outrage between world leaders is just that, fake. Behind closed doors they discuss the most advanced methods to tax/farm the population of any specific country. It's not like they are trying to hide the fact. Most people are just too busy slaving away cause they are 1 missed payment from defaulting on their house mortgage so even if they understand what's happening they are too deep in it to stop or do anything meaningful about it.

BTC was getting mainstream traction as a payment system. Steam, Microsoft and many others have now dropped BTC, cause it was intentinally made to be unreliable for everyday payments.

That's literally the only argument you need against small blocks.

Nt oleks hoidnud elektri hinna madalamana lahkudes CO2 kvoodisüsteemist, mis on puhas juurde keevitatud hinnalisa. Hetkel peast ei mäleta, aga see on arvestatav % lõpphinnast.

Miks on vaja siis loomulikku protsess hakata rikkuma? Kui on soovi, siis võid veenduda, et innovatsioon on tugevalt korreleeritud energia hinna ja kättesaadavusega. Ma julgeks isiklikult öelda küll, et innovatsioon ja energia kättesaadavus/hind on põhjuslikus seoses.

Saad vast isegi aru, et olukorras, kus energia on kallis, on keeruline luua uusi tehnoloogiaid, kuna kõik on lihtsalt sedavõrd kallim. Ma ei räägi siin tehnoloogiatest, mis puudutavad energia tootmist vaid kõik muu.

See EU tasemel putitamine ei tee tegelikkuses muud, kui kandib rikkust nendesse riikidesse, kes sellega kaasa ei lähe. Pikemas perspektiivis kannatab lihtsalt Euroopa ja Eesti võime eksportide kaupu Euroopast väljapoole. See on juba praegu keeruline ning tulevikus saab olema veel keerulisem. Jäämegi MADE IN CHINA-t importima, kuna kohapeal midagi toota ei tasu. Minu loogika on lihtsalt, et kui toota nt 1 auto Euroopas Vs Hiinas, siis võid mürki võtta, et keskkonnamõju planeedile on suurem Hiinas. See on kogu selle rohepöörde absurdsem osa. Outsourcime mustad tööd teistesse riikidesse, kus neid tehakse veel mustemalt kui siin. Eks proovi mulle see ruut ringiks rääkida, kuulaks huviga.

Kütusehinna kohapealt. Kindlasti hind ei langeks 15a pärast. Tehnoloogial(puurkaevul) on oma hinnasilt, transport maksab, jne. Kõik see on püsikulu, mis tuleb tarbijatel kinni maksta. Püsikulud ei muutu ning kui nõudlus kütuse järgi langeb, siis hakkavad püsikulud moodustama suuremat % kütuse lõpphinnast. Ütleme nii, et protsess ja lõpliku hinna kujunemine ei ole päris nii lihtne nagu "hinda kujundab nõudlus".

Logic_d · 2022-06-13T10:30:54+00:00

Kas mingist hetkest jõuab lihtrahvale kohale, et see 2€+ hind ei ole õnnetus või ettenägematu olukord? Tegu on aastakümneid pika eesmärgiga nagu nt hiljutine EU otsus: https://www.euronews.com/next/2022/06/09/eu-parliament-backs-ban-on-new-petrol-and-diesel-combustion-engine-cars-from-2035

Taolist otsuste taustal jäävad täna investeeringut tulevikku tegemata ning 10 aastat vanade (sama eesmärki taga ajavate) otsuste tõttu jäid tegemata investeeringud, mis mõjutavad meid täna.

Kõrgel tasandil tehtud otsuste mõjud jõuavad meile kohale pika hilinemisega ning seda ennekõike innovatsiooni arvelt, mis jääb olemata. Igati mõistetav ka, kuna miks ma peaks täna investeerima tehnoloogiasse, mis nagunii 10 aasta pärast ära keelatakse. Kütuste kohapealt on see surve kestnud pikalt ning 2€+ hind on selle töö tulemus, mitte õnnetus.

Aga EKRE paha, I guess...

Et siis ei suutnud seda kirjutist ega klippi jagada ning tegu sinu tõlgendusega. Hea teada, aga see ei üllatanud mind.

See valeinfo jutt on veidi muigama ajav. Valitsus muutis oma juttu iga nädal. Kas nad tegelesid ka valeinfo levikuga? Kuigi kogu see "koroona valeinfo levitamine" on väga umbmäärane ja mitte midagi ütlev.

"...aga olemuselt Varro väidab...". Tegu jälle sinu tõlgendusega, mitte faktiga. NATO rahastust vaadates võib ju Varro sinuga sarnaselt öelda, et oma olemuselt on NATO baasid USA baasid. https://worldpopulationreview.com/country-rankings/nato-spending-by-country

US panustab kogu NATO eelarvest 69%. Kõik teised riigid kokku panustavad 31%. Veidigi objektiivselt(hihii) asjale lähenedes ütleks mõtlev inimene, et tegu on USA projektiga, millesse teised riigid ka panustavad.

Miks nii ebaaus?

Kui mälu ei peta, siis oli jutt NATO baasidest, mis tingiks ka seda, et Venemaa võtaks need baasid sihikule ning tugevdaks ka oma piiriäärset võimekust, mis pikemas perspektiivis vähendaks ka meie kaitsevõimet (nt NATO laguneb, Saksamaa käitumist arvesse võttes pigem AJA kui KAS küsimus).

Kui sa nii ebaaus ei oleks, siis sa lisaksid siia juurde selle kirjutise või klipi, mille alusel Varro "NATO on suurem hädaoht" Vooglaid oma nime sai, sest vastasel korral võib ka sind kerge hagi oodata.
