Agreed on all points. Thanks for speaking reasonably. I too think the technology is INCREDIBLY promising but also acknowledge that it is in its infancy…and will continue to be because of the hivemind.
I think crypto technologies could work toward making a better democracy and other applications of a public ledger.
I think it is currently the best solution to a decentralized, open source way to add incentive to the act of running public infrastucture. It’s actually my hope that perhaps it can be used to incentivize the act of running a lemmy/kbin instance (for instance).
I absolutely despise the moonboi bullshit and am honestly only in it for the technology and its relevance to the realization of a truly borderless, open source, anarcho-syndicalist, cypherpunk way of life. I want to own my property and I want to help use technology to make corruption impossible…and NFT’s, as a technology, are currently a key part to one of the best solutions to many of these issues. They, like crypto, are misunderstood.
To analogize my sentiment: it feels like the hivemind is espousing the benefits of for-profit healthcare that kills 70k people/year in the US while Single Payer stares them straight in the face around the world.

are they, though?

are they, though? one would imagine that if that was true, they would have demonstrated some capacity for something other than speculating and scamming in the 15-odd years crypto has existed. single payer is a bad analogy because there’s actual hard evidence for it being a better system than what we’re currently doing.

Good comment and I’d just like to say, I see what you did there.
