I might be younger than you but I am born prior to 1990.

With great respect to you guys, but by the sounds of it you do not understand how blockchain/crypto works.... You guys seem to miss the point, massively! Blockchain and crypto is revolutionary! Speculation is one, but use is another!

A bubble won't last longer than 12 months... BTC was introduced in 2008 and it's still here, wake up!

Inneresting ... you've referenced one book to support your argument and you think that's all you need

Sorry, should also have pointed out that on Amazon this book is rated at 5*, so your reference is very reputable. And one of the 2 people who rated the book 5* also reviewed the book and confirmed it arrived safely

"This text aims to provide a platform for writers, scholars and activists to discuss the political, economic and cultural aspects of corporate and government visions of "the information superhighway". Addressing the video, computer and networked communications technologies on work, education, health, entertainment, literature and art, this book investigates their problematic impact on society. Exploring the relations of power and dependence fostered by the new information culture, it promotes the possibilities and strategies of resistance to the rewiring of the body psyche. With essays on the future of the Internet, the bringing down to earth of cyberspace, the sexism of the electronic frontier and the dangers of information, this work provides a critique of the "over-hyped" virtual life."

Almost tempted to buy it to see if the "essays on the future of the Internet" turned out to to be prophetic.

Welcome back, scootie.

Fine, this " bubble" is ongoing for 13 years, God..... it must burst. See ya in 2026

It’s ongoing because nobody went to jail for it (yet)

All of your issues with crypto were already debated on page 1 to 10 in this thread... that was 4 years ago. You're still sleeping deep and waiting to be slapped.

I cannot see anyone going to jail for normal use of blockchain. If someone is using it in illegal ways then yes - people should to go jail for that.

Regarding tax imposed on crypto by the IRS, that is old news, it is already part of the US 1040 form.

You are just following what the media is telling you, that is fine with me. Oh what, the Treasury also confirmed yesterday that they have are developing their own digital currency - funny that none of you mentioned that. You can hate crypto as much as you like, it is the future!

[jamesbrown]

it is the future!

Of cretinism. The present too.
