Except it was complaints from reactionaries which made them delete the option to donate through crypto after accepting it for years!
So, they were worried that an asset that has consistently gone up in the long term was too unstable to receive payments in? Your arguments make no sense.
No, they can't. How would an EOA created in any standard wallet be linked to a Reddit vault?
Yes, but they can't be linked to a reddit account, which was your whole point.
You can transfer it to a wallet that is not linked to reddit.
And Ethereum is not like Bitcoin anymore, so the environmental concerns are reduced.
100% of the crypto hate I see is from citizens of neocolonial states. You lord your control of the financial system over us and when something threatens it, it's always delegitimised for any number of reasons.
Take your pick: scam, destroying the environment, eroding state power etc.
A decentralised system/society will need a value layer to transact. You think Visa should be in control of that?
Just because you don't like it, doesn't make it snake oil. I hope you never find yourself at the mercy of a government that persecutes you and imposes capital control so you can't even run away with your money. If crypto existed when my people were literally being genocided, my parents would not have to end up in a new country with nothing to their name.
Why would I want a nation state to run on anything? The end of the nation state is the communist utopia!
I am for whatever erodes the illegitimate violence exerted by nation states to safeguard their parasitic domain. If it's crypto, it's crypto. If people not eating apples brought about their end, I would be out there burning orchards.
Pretty sure this is just the apps adding up all the upvotes/downvotes you receive and not an actual Lemmy feature.
Incredibly out of touch Westerners who think the world should revolve exclusively around their favoured concerns. The Ukraine conflict was a very good example of this. So many dumbasses blaming countries for not cutting their ties with Russia just because it suits their worldview.
No one is claiming to be a mastermind except you declaring a thing you don't like as bad because of vague reasons.
Umm social media has literally led to genocide in Myanmar leading to a flood of refugees in my country...
Decentralised social media would be even worse because people can set up their own instance and spew hate with no moderation.
How many genocides has crypto caused?
People fled the war in Ukraine with their crypto intact because it's borderless and empowers the public. Can't say the same for the banksters you're batting for.
Again, price volatility had nothing to with Wikipedia stopping crypto donations.
You can hate all you want, crypto is the only way I have to pay for a lot of things and it has definitely helped me more than reactionary moralists from the West living large in their oppression funded country.
I didn't call them woke. Hell, people would probably call me woke if they asked about my political preferences. Being woke and being a reactionary pawn are two different things.
