  • If my local grocery story would accept it, I would. It's a compatibility issue, which all technology is tested this way. Having 5G towers in the 1900s would have been a bummer, but today, somewhat standard. Crypto will need to pass this test if it'll survive

  • Most assets work that way, if everyone sold Nividia stock then it would tank as well. Most things outside of food and shelter only have value due to our collective belief. Diamond and water paradox is constant in society

  • I think the creators had some knowledge of how currency worked, since there has been movements to make digital money in the cryptopunk scene for 20+ years before BTC. Also, you don't need a degree to be an economist, a library card works just as good

    Having a fixed supply might reduce astronomical debts but still allow for smaller debts or ones that are collateralized. But yeah, day to day life would be drastically different. No credit cards for sure, but also no compound interest, because can't have compounding interest on anything with a fixed supply or it will acquire all of the resource (or at least attempt to)

  • I guess some people have that stance, but it's a currency. It's supposed to be boring and not thought about much. It's not like most people care about antique and rare coin collections, but some people do, most people just spend and save their money

  • No, it's like any other currency minus it has a fixed supply. So use it, since inflation is eating away any currency with a limitless supply

  • Yay, higher prices to offset the theft and increased surveillance!

  • BTC is steady last few months at 60k, if you purchased last year, your investment is up 3x. If you bought 2 years ago at the peak, you're up a few %, which still beats international inflation

  • Traceability might be nice since the black market is estimated around 20T USD. Cuts out bad actors which means no fraud, and no hidden inflation since we can see the quantity compared to USD which the Federal Reserve doesn't even know

  • I think the idea of cryptocurrency is funny, since it's just "I'm not playing your make believe money anymore, so we'll pay our own make believe money since you are obviously rigging the system". Kinda makes sense if adoption keeps up and the planet isn't on fire

  • Totally. Get a PSU? Or use solar with a PSU. Or batteries. Always a mitigation for the mitigation lol

  • I'm not familiar with Wyze but Ring and Nest doorbells go for $50-$200 per camera plus a month subscription if they want to keep the data, so still cheaper

    And they do have magnets to allow for non drilling options if that's a requirement. I should also stipulate if the person installing it has the physical ability, the setting up the computer side is easy enough for a novice and simpler than installing Windows/MacOSX

    My argument is not go the easy, convenient route. Fast food is nice in a pinch, but eating it every day leads to bad outcomes. And I'm not saying the consumer is 100% to blame, but they aren't innocent bystanders, especially if they are spending money to protect valuables, why not learn which tools are available and when to use what
