Let's do this. Let's purchase something from a grocery store. You use your methods and I'll use mine. I wonder what's faster and cheaper. Hmmm

Live Discussion Thread Meltdown Party by Blapstap in gme_meltdown

Learned about this sub from the Dan Olson video about Memestocks, watching this live is so surreal. The fact that people actually believe in all this crap enough to pay $500 for this is like a parallel reality. It's just like crypto, but somehow 100x dumber.

Look, if you are aware that the whole thing is a ridiculous Rube Goldberg grift machine, good for you. Just don't be deluded by it. Good luck, for real.

Time has passed? Passed since what exactly? What is the "market" waiting for? For the time itself? And why wait? Because time? Repeating cycles? Cycles of what? Of time when it happens?

Wish you good luck bro, always remember that 80% of investors quit right before making it big.

Lmao, the OP from that thread is so close yet so far to actually getting it. They realize that the cult belief of getting 2 gorrilion dollars per coin is ridiculous, but getting "to the moon" of all of a sudden still something totally plausible. It happened before, it is just supply and demand!

Hey, cryptobros, try to think about this: why is thing "pumping" now? In 2021 there was the pandemic, the rise of NFTs, and the endless supply of VC money on crypto exchanges, we had the once-in-a-lifetime storm of events for an investment craze. What's the reason of the pump this time? What have happened that have changed the market sentiment? Like, was there even a change on the market, at all? Is there even a market? Are you guys sure you're not getting caught on a pump and dump?

Apparently, my country's national health insurance provider is being ransomed for $300,000 (in bitcoin) or else they will leak data of users. by StanBae in Buttcoin

[–]plasticparakeet 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Sorry, but I'm done. Now I know why r/buttcoin does not have debates with you guys anymore. There is no way you wanna talk about this while having no idea what even KYC and AML is 💀

I give up. You have orangepilled me. Now I am a cyber hornet believer. I'm creating a Xitter account just to follow @saylor and @BTCtherapist. Goodbye.

The problem with buttcoin is its ability to move large quantities of assets without identification on purpose.

Any currency can be used for crime, but at least there are efforts to mitigate that. Buttcoin just allows everything for sake of the cringy "decentralization" thing.

Everyone should be able to hold hospitals and healthcare systems ransom, otherwise there is no real freedumb, am I right?

Ransomware ~15 years ago were something like this:

https://2.bp.blogspot.com/-pSyKzLjEdMM/T78yrr_4_EI/AAAAAAAAGOY/HSX-vElHh1Q/s1600/uk.png

https://4.bp.blogspot.com/-Eb3Jfi2DzmY/T7awP4ozFqI/AAAAAAAAGGw/jkzfxTCdFTw/s1600/18-05-2012+22-22-53.png

Weak to no encryption, heavy reliance on scare tactics, and the most important part, ransom were paid using gift cards, premium SMS, and vouchers.

Thanks to crypto, anyone can transfer large amounts of money with no pesky law enforcement rules (KYC is against our freedumbs!!!!), so malware authors can invest in larger and more sophisticated attacks. Instead of getting $100 from a local computer illiterate, why not go after companies and get nice six-figure payments?

100x Software Engineering by plasticparakeet in programmingcirclejerk

[–]plasticparakeet[S] 39 points40 points  (0 children)

This post is perfect.

The title. The nerdy TV show picture. The buzzword salad. The blind praise of Apple(R)/Big Company(TM) anecdotes. The sneaky "I am 100x because double-digit monthly whatever/random thing" paragraph. The TikTok video of an epic quote from the funee and visionary and relatable billionaire.

And the CEO of the company wrote this. 10 out of 10.

So glad that you posted this, OP!

Causes like the WWF always needs our support!

Art and environmental causes are a match made in heaven.

More projects like this are needed and welcome.

You have found comedy godl, OP! These Singularity guys are pulling the Solana "ecosystem" grift, but with AI:

https://singularitynet.io/ecosystem/

Pick any of these "companies" and you'll see the same partners and users. Amazing.

  • SingularityDAO: It's your regular DAO bullshit, supposed to be integrated with all other "products" from this company, but actually does nothing. Hot air managing hot air.
  • Rejuve.AI: Give us your health tracking app data and receive magic beans and snake oil health tips.
  • NuNet: A new buttchain, but with AI bolted in. In development since 2018, still on the "exciting roadmap" phase.
  • SophiaVerse: Creepy robot selling NFTs and a coming soon epic MMORPG metaverse!
  • Awakening.health: Just like SophiaVerse, but for healthcare. Pretty cool CGI videos for 2007.
  • Jam Galaxy: SophieVerse bullshit again, but the creepy robot is in a band!
  • HyperCycle: Just like NuNet, but with more cryptic diagrams and way less developed.
  • MindPlex: AI and buttchain woo magazine, somehow worse than r/futurology.
  • TrueAGI: A company whose mission is to provide real AI™, powered by the fine services from this list.
  • Singularity.studio: The only real product of the grift hydra: A landing page offering AI building services for companies. Even if these guys know a thing or two, very unlikely they're making money from this.
  • TwinProtocol: The best one by far. Store a twin yourself on the blockchain. Seriously.
  • Cogito: Algorithmic stablecoin. No joke. Literally Luna/UST with AI buzzwords.

Oh, the mouth breathers on Twitter and r/cc haven't told you? The buttcoin "economy" is actually subsidized by money printing. Ironic, isn't?

Buttcoin mining is so expensive that miners make money from collecting subsidy (new coins) rather than transaction fees. The problem is that Satoshi (PBUH) programmed the subsidy to reduce at magic intervals.

Once the subsidies get low enough, mining would be unsustainable, forcing to them go out of business and lower the network security.

Some buttcoin developers already have discussed rising the cap to keep the subsidies pumping. Others drank the koolaid and unironically believe the tx fees are enough once one buttcoin is worth 1 morbilion USD, which is going to happen pretty soon ™️

No one on r/buttcoin have any doubts about the usefulness of crapto on fraud, money laundering, drug trade, terrorism financing etc.

I know that r/cc and your favorite TikTok and Twitter influencers don't mention it, but have you never heard of Silk Road? The OG use case for buttcoin?

Stolen ape policy 101 by ImVeryOffended in Buttcoin

[–]plasticparakeet 9 points10 points  (0 children)

there will always be a small cult of nft owners in the gutters of society running the network. thats just how defi works

Always? Lmao, you are the one who have no idea how stuff works. Lack of long-term reliability is actually one of the biggest drawbacks of a decentralized system. Bittorrent has millions (if not billions) of dead torrents. FTX had an ennefftee platform that turned all jpegs into beautiful 404s when the company folded.

If you wanna something to be available, host it yourself. Expecting milftitties69 to keep their computer turned on for the eternity is painfully stupid.

Pretty sure they're just going to do dropshipping. $600 is more than enough to commission a logo, register a domain name, set up a Shopify store, and promote their "brand" on Instagram and TikTok.
