I had a good conversation with this guy about hammers.
At the NRA Convention someone told us that hammers are used to kill more people than guns. So we looked up the stats in front of them.

Going to keep calling a spade a spade. Crypto is entirety a scam. A collective hallucination wrapped in techno-solutionism, empty idealism and phoney populism. No one can give a single damn use case for any of this crap. The emperor is stark naked and everyone sees it.

Putin meant to grab #Ukraine & drive wedges between #NATO & #Russian-bordering nations. Instead, he's evoked unification of economic, military & political forces across Europe, G7, the @EU @IMF @WorldBank & @NATO into a block of unprecedented unity & resolve, that met today. MORE

I started buying stuff on Amazon because it was more convenient than going to Target, but increasingly, it's easier to go to Target than to sort through the garbage on Amazon.

For more context on the multi-currency problem outlined by Stephen there is a great episode of Planet Money about the subject: npr.org/sections/money/2012/…
This is the most basic argument against crypto that I tell all the people who call me. The tech doesn't work, and the fundamental idea is ahistorical and flawed. Writing it down so I don't have to repeat myself all the time. The Case Against Crypto stephendiehl.com/blog/agains…
