All of the anti crypto people are idiots. They barely understand how fiat works and then expect the world to believe crypto is a scam because “they say so”?.
Do yourself a favor and just block, ignore and move on. You are never going to educate these folks.
Now this makes me lol. I mined some coin in a lost wallet when the century was single digits. Admitadely it seemed need but I ddi not get it. It creates value by flushing energy down the toilet for no useful work and is programed to reguire more energy for the resource which while fiat currency has little behind it like taxes and militaries. bitcoin has nothing behind it because the energy was already wasted and otherwise its just code. Not even paper. On top of it since its programed as a pyramid scheme investment it does not even work properly as a currency. Gridcoin does because its value is reflected in the work the envergy does and don’t get me wrong the distributed ledger has potential that has not really been utilized yet (or is utilized so well im not notcing it). Believers in crypto are just that. Folks that understand it laugh at it. Its funny how you can replace jesus with crypto in tha phrase and it fit perfectly like what a christian might say to an athiest:
“I gave up trying to spread the word that is jesus to the non believers. Just like everything else worth discovering, they have to want to learn.”
You’re going to be blocking a lot of people. 75% of Americans who have heard of cryptocurrency are not confident in its safety and reliability. Those are majorly important things for any currency.
Cryptocurrency is a scam because no one backs it. There’s no guarantee major exchanges won’t fold overnight. It’s just “trust me bro” with your life savings.
All major currencies have a government backing them. That means they guarantee that you can (must) pay your taxes and any government fees in the local currency.
Which do you think will last longer? The US Government or a “trust me bro” crypto website? It’s that simple.
This right here explains it all. I never said anything about blocking anyone, you said that. But thanks (I guess) for giving me one more moron to block.
The fact that crypto is still around and thriving (regardless of what that survey says) tells us that you and your ilk are wrong. Instead of being angry that you missed out, you could smarten up and realize that you haven’t missed out at all and despite crypto having been around for over a decade now, this is still early days for those wise enough to realize it.

I needed this thank you
I gave up trying to spread the word that is crypto to the non believers. Just like everything else worth discovering, they have to want to learn.
Exactly. I think I just gave up!

Wow. You have set a record for amount of dumb shit in one comment.
You sound salty that you missed out. You haven’t. BTC, et al isn’t a ponzi or a pyramid, it’s actually more fair of a system than fiat.
I could give you a list of projects with real teams and communities behind them but I don’t think you would appreciate it so I won’t.
Have a nice day now.
