      I get more coherent responses from my 2 year old.
      Do you think the current system isn't a scam?
      No more a scam is a phrase that means less than or equal to...which includes not a scam at all.
      For the record...I don't care if it is or not. I hope it changes the world and makes me rich in the process.

        So you don’t care if you are involved in serious crime - buying stolen property, money laundering, terrorist financing?

        As long as it gets you rich I guess anything goes, because “everybody doing it”?

          Honestly boy, if you can't understand why blockchain is becoming the future of money then I'm having some serious doubts about the human race and their mastery of this world.

          Nice little video here from the beeb to explain what it's all about:

          Bitcoin's energy consumption 'equals that of Switzerland'

          Regarding energy consumption... it is estimated the current financial system uses 60x as much as Bitcoin. And that's only for VISA transactions

            Energy consumption is secondary problem, primary problem is that tulipcoins are now the primary enabler of cybercrime such as ransomware

              I said I'm in crypto...not cash and American government bonds.
              Almost certain my pension funds more terrorism than my crypto
              When everyone IS doing it...I'll hopefully be significantly richer.

                Ok, let’s check your claims - what “pension funds more terrorism” are you referring to?

                      And all transactions satisfy KYC (know your client) laws?

                      Your pension fund will have all paperwork, so they are ok
