i disrespect anyone involved with cryptocurrency
i also hold $2200 worth of XRP now, after stupidly investing $2000 in it a few years ago based on this thread and my complete idiocy, watching it fall to $140, and then back up to $2200 again over the last few months. i'd get rid of it and buy some sort of local-market tv ad making fun of cryptofucks, but i don't want to figure out how to get into my goddamn wallet and con some motherfucker into giving me cash for it

of course, my current stance is based upon my overwhelming love for the petrodollar economy, and actually, it's ME who is the asshole

there's a mystery ilxor who i follow on twitter (different username/handle, no idea, but a bunch of ilxors follow them) and they talk a lot about cryptocurrency. sorry if i'm dissing that person, they are probably really cool. i suppose this is supposed to lead to some sort of thought path that leads to "i guess they're not ALL cryptofucks", but i'd like to see the number of verified "cool cryptotraders" rise above 0.000001% before going there

two of my friends jokingly gave me 8 dollars a few months ago to invest in Doge when it was at 7 cents.
that 8 bucks is now grown to over $80. what a world.

I have a neighbor whose medium-size employer was ransomwared. they all got a week off cuz they literally couldn't work. they brought the FBI in and they said "you just have to pay the ransom". and you all thought Bitcoin wasn't good for anything.
― frogbs, Tuesday, 18 May 2021 17:19 (three years ago) link
there should be a crypto just for paying ransoms and then on a specific day have someone manipulate the market to make them all worthless before they can sell
― Feta Van Cheese (Neanderthal), Tuesday, 18 May 2021 17:21 (three years ago) link
perhaps...a Shitcoin
I learned last week that insurance companies have people who's job it is to negotiate with ransomware companies so that their clients get a better deal on the ransom. Seems like a fun job.
