I said crypto, not bitcoin.
I don’t care which tech would deliver that, as long as it delivers.
On no, someone used money to buy food instead of hoarding money and only thinking about how much return they could’ve made if they invested money instead of buying food.
Crypto-as-invement midset is a poison to the real crypto adoption - ability to buy things with crypto effortlessly.
Stability comes from popularity. Its already way more stable than before - $100 BTC fell into sub $20. We don’t have x5 swings now.
Bitcoin would be way more popular if it actually delivered the decent tech that everyone is using to do purchases.
BTC ran into speed & scaling issue, and eventually made Lighting Network. So now we have 2 different currencies, one stable and decentralized and one fast and centralised. This is not what was promised originally.
There were more honest attempts to spread it and use it in physical/online stores back when BTC was under 1000 than now, and it’s not like we got higher exchange rate fluctuations. If anything, it becomes more stable.
Saddens me that crypto is now about investment/gains instead of being improved as a fair, decentralised, convenient, fast, secure money system.
Looks like we will have to stick to the banks and their bullshit yet after all.

5·24 days agoTry Maidan 2013/2014: not easy to ignore, no looting. Protesters themselves protected shops against government-led thugs.
Looters harm the original goal and I find any attempts to justify it to be harmful, if your goal is to change anything.

Under former Prime Minister Viktor Orbán
Article provides no current Hungarian government politician name that would support this position. Because there likely none - current government is way more pro-EU and less anti-Ukrainian (although still take anti-Ukrainian views of it’s citizen into account due to being populist, and create issues to Ukraine, like with opening EU clusters).

Europe@feddit.org•Germany puts Ukrainian on trial accused of blowing up Nord Stream pipelinesEnglish
21·1 month agoNS2 is a memorial to German shameful realpolitik business-first approach of Merkel, who made Germany russian energy dependent and was building a second pipe so russia can continue trading while it invades Ukraine.
This is one of the key actions that made russia think that full scale invasion is a good idea.

18·1 month agoIsn’t serving in the military also a part of traditional values? Guy is obviously just too woke /s
Some of them are restockable on the merchants without any issues, like crabs (20% phys res), fan of daggers etc. Sleep stuff, yeah. The stupidest part that PvPers just dupe them via the cheat engine and nobody gives a fuck. Such a fucking stupid idea to make consumables like that.

Europe@feddit.org•Students strike across Germany against military serviceEnglish
61·2 months agoIf the war happens, this post would age like milk. Russia has FPVs and Shaheds, cheap recon drones like Orlan, mid range vehicle hunters Lancets. True, they are in a very bad shape and will likely lose if they face the while Europe + Ukraine at the same time in full strength, but people heavily underestimate the military tech advancements made in the war.
As it stands, the only undeniable edge EU has over them is in planes. Would it be enough?
