Crypto currency is objectively bad for the world.
Okay, but have you considered how useful it is to transmit and exchange child pornography?
Our children, our future, we sacrifice to Moloch. He returned his favor to us in riches, in memes, in expensive jpegs of monkeys. Glorious are his gifts, glorious and dark, glittering, dancing flame reflected in the sheen of blood that covers them.
In a sane world the people responsible for this would’ve been shot before it even reached 1.5%
Turning natural resources directly in to global warming by doing math real hard to print invisible drugbux.
Way too high, won't be satisfied until crypto is generating negative usage (crypto nerds on generator pedal bikes repaying the energy they stole for monkey money back to the grid).

-- Overly editorialized titles, particularly if they link to opinion pieces, may get your post removed. --
-- All posts must include a link to their source. Screenshots are fine IF you include the link in the post body. --
-- If you are citing a twitter post as news please include not just the twitter.com in your links but also nitter.net (or another Nitter instance). There is also a Firefox extension that can redirect Twitter links to a Nitter instance: https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/libredirect/ or archive them as you would any other reactionary source using e.g. https://archive.today . Twitter screenshots still need to be sourced or they will be removed --

-- Neglecting to use content warnings or NSFW when dealing with disturbing content will be removed until in compliance. Users who are consecutively reported due to failing to use content warnings or NSFW tags when commenting on or posting disturbing content will result in the user being banned. --
-- Using April 1st as an excuse to post fake headlines, like the resurrection of Kissinger while he is still fortunately dead, will result in the poster being thrown in the gamer gulag and be sentenced to play and beat trashy mobile games like 'Raid: Shadow Legends' in order to be rehabilitated back into general society. --
