Honestly yeah those are good comments

But you did watch it and know it’s full of lies and garbage and misrepresentations and it gets all sorts of things wrong, you just can’t really name any of them besides on bullet point someone else shared or bring up his points to refute them to wage a counterargument except in the broadest possible strokes (which…

Because no crypto bro has ever presented a convincing case how NFTs or crypto would make any game actually better. Every so-called use-case has been easily debunked many, many times, as being stupid, unrealistic, impossible (like the idea that having an NFT for some in-game item would make it magically possible to use…

Gonna take that as a “no” then.

Weird, that always seems to happen with a hardcore crypto set. A curious little pattern.

I love the pie-in-the-sky responses you always get from cryptos whenever a problem with the system is brought up. “It will be solved eventually! A problem will eventually emerge and only crypto will be able to solve it! The computing second coming will occur and NFT’s will be universally valuable!”

Meanwhile, this…

Yeah, we definitely can’t point to multiple instances wherein global warming and climate change are negatively affecting the planet. Absolutely no reason to be concerned about climate data at all, eh?

I’m not sure why I’m surprised the crypto defender has taken this particular tact.

“All I said was “the crypto-hate circlejerk was strong on this site”. I believe all of the replies to my comment are indisputable evidence of the aforementioned circlejerk, no?”

the crypto hate is deserved and if you think the choice of ‘circlejerk’ as a descriptor would get you much love then what were you smoking at…

arguing carbon NEGATIVE instead of carbon neutral?? but these new techniques are being suppressed though? I assume by the same bastards who kept the water powered car a secret? also: “theres no stopping it and regulations will soon come” <- so its only useful if those that run the financial system allow you to do…

That’s nice. Now that you’ve got that out of your system can you tell me what it got wrong?

I mean sometimes a circle jerk is justified.   Fuck crypto, NFTs and the idiots that buy them.   

Give me $500 and I’ll give you a piece of paper that says I named a star after you.

If by “circle-jerk” you mean “echo chamber” then yes, I suppose it is one.

...why shouldn’t it be? The only promise made to gamers about NFTs that NFTs can actually deliver is more microtransactions, as well as...I’m gonna say it...macrotransactions, sullying the industry even further for end users that are sick of…

No one in their right mind would suggest implementing a more energy-intensive, more complicated, less efficient method to do something we can already do easily.

Yet, here we are.

Because crypto is a bullshit scheme and should be burned to the ground

“Distributed ledger technologies certainly have use case and utility in this world.”

watch all 2 hours of it and then get back to me.

Did you know that there’s nothing to prevent someone from sending malware to your email address?

Because we KNOW it’s bullshit. Crypto bros are 2 things: they are either in on the scam, or they are just fucking stupid and don’t know what’s good for them.

1) The value of all cryptos is as “speculative assets”- their worth at some point in the future is a function of “more people want them in the future than want them now”. So no one who isn’t paid by the cyrpto industry should do their recruiting for them.

While it could be used for that, that could also be accomplished by existing centralized databases. Steam has an entire marketplace for selling cosmetics and “trading cards” - there is no technical hurdle to them also allowing “used game” sales. And so looking for a technical solution is misguided.
