    You don't know one thing about what I believe.

    Please point out one sweeping bullshit statement I have made.

    Me too!

    I agree there’s something there, but I don’t know what it is. Part of my job is figuring out what the hell this stuff means, too, and figure out if there’s an application for it. All I’ve seen, outside of blockchain serving as a speculative investment vehicle, is a way for people to lose their life savings to fraudsters. Otherwise it’s just a more complicated and more fraught way to do things that we already do.

    There’s probably more to it, though.
    focus.

    Its credentialism. you can call it a college degree or a token. You can have it registered at the registrars office or on the blockchain. Same with a marriage. Or any number of “real world” things. It’s only a proxy.

    now post some stupid smug bromide.

    Not that it matters I guess, but you’re leading the personal shit slinging in this particular round by a big margin. Take a lap, bro.

    What?

    Maybe NFTs and immutable blockchains are what actually make the Matrix possible?

    Which begs the question - what makes a great price?

    That's a really really good question. After all, everything is relative

    "Even so, some are using this fall as an opportunity to “buy the dip.” El Salvador President Nayib Bukele, whose country holds bitcoin on its balance sheet and has purchased coins during previous dips, announced another purchase of 150 BTC for around $48,700 each."

    This 5 part series does a great job explaining how to form your own opinion on this if people honestly want to learn.

    Thinking I should sell my van (for a profit) and buy some bitcoins. Then sell them in 2022 for another profit. I love gambling..I mean investing!

    Bukele is most definitely an authoritarian pumper using his Twitter account and the treasury of El Salvador to distract from the countries' many problems. It's a shame as the country and its people have so much potential.
