I thought about this a few days ago and I thought it might start of as a new movie type were people will accept a more dreamlike style of movie. Coherent enough to see it as a movie but with a new form of artifacts. Like small details change but it's still okay for us.

On the other hand, I have seen enough papers who also address aspects like coherence in style, object tracking and other aspects.

I don't think we are far away at all.

More like how long until performance for quick feedback is fast enough, cheap enough etc.

You are aware that a government can make laws and change laws right?

And also change the constitution right?

Of course it could imply that it needa to go through certain channels but no one should assume that it literally meant 'the president will now say x and now x is the law'.

I don't think that was the issue.

I think education was.

It's hard to discuss 'freedom' when people prefer the opinion of anyone besides experts.

I never ever saw meaningful discussions on covid were people were arguing certain papers and statistics.

So the state actually did what it should do: protect their people.

Yes we do need to discuss ALSO further Energie eaters.

The point here is that Bitcoin is new, doesn't add any value but in contrary is circumventing the existing and on purpose installed finance system.

Blocking Bitcoin now doesn't hurt anyone while ac etc. Might be harder to enforce.

You are referencing this because you want to distract from the current discussion and not because it adds anything to the current discussion.

And no I don't want to argue about pro and cons of air travel because it doesn't change the current discussion it only deflects.

This doesn't mean I'm pro air travel btw. Another weird outcome. What would you have won if I said 'yes also let's ban airtravel'?

It doesn't matter as Bitcoin will just create more 'value' through existing bitcoins getting more valuable and therefore the domination will change.

It already happened. 10 years ago a pizza was worth how much? And how many bitcoins do you need now for one pizza?

It's just not.

Some dude though about some basic concept of decentralization and that's it.

This was not some mastermind who created the perfect money system.

There are massive amounts of issues with Bitcoin in particular.

Alone one reason why Ethereum was trying to be ASIC resistent was to make GPUs stronger and allowing for more / better decentralization.

Plenty of people who are no longer able to recover their wallets (I know two friends having lost 150k$\initial investment of 10k$).

Fraud issues like you see in El Salvador.

The huge changes in value (no Bitcoin is apparently not stable and independent from the economic market).

And it doesn't even solve the trust issue. As soon as you wanna spend Bitcoin you need other systems like smart contract (which also doesn't solve the problem) or trusting third party.

The only advantage of Bitcoin is that's unregulated and everyone is taking a bit of it who is fast enough, rich enough or smart enough from everyone else who is not.

Perhaps we all should finally standup together than and advocate much louder for Bitcoin crypto ban

After all we all are loosing the climate change game thanks to Bitcoin and co.

We all pay the price. High electric bills due to more AC usage, more demand on electricity through Bitcoin mining and higher GPU prices.

It's easy to ban.

Why wouldn't it be?

This makes it much harder for companies to get proper electric contracts, you can snitch on companies, you can audit them etc.

It might not be able to ban small setups but for sure makes a big dent in crypto companies. Official ones.

You should read up on other algorithm which were not allowed to be exported outside of USA.

But just to be clear about your wishi washy argument:

It's not arbitrary when they state a reason.

And it's not just some algorithm.

I'm also not sure what a difference it makes if you do something manually or a computer automatically if it's harming others you should be able to ban it.

Like the action of moving your hand very fast into the face of someone else.

Or consuming a lot of energy to guess a random text string faster than others.

Btw. You should also advocate against Bitcoin. The chance that the climate change from Bitcoin is hurting you more than the benefit of Bitcoin is very high

And if you made bank thanks to crypto, feel free to accept that jlyou only took the money you have now from others.

One way or the other Bitcoin is garbage.

And yes every crypto bro who exchanges crypto back to Fiat is not believing in crypto either.

Because why?

It's obvious that the money streams are under control of the state.

Your sentiment indicate that Bitcoin should be okay because why exactly?

The country doesn't want crypto that was and is clear since ever

And I also brought this point up for the last 5 years.crypto is solving a problem people like you think they wanna solve without understanding that it's on purpose how it is.

It's nothing to be fixed.

Free market: tabacco lobby. That was not a good thing for us.

Watch a documentary on how they created false research on purpose and lied in public.

You don't want a free market.

Why? Because right now everything we do creates more CO2.

Producing more energy means more CO2.

Even producing more solar panels creates more CO2.

The problem is CO2 and climate change. your and mine climate change.

It will cost us less to avoid producing the mass amount of energy for Bitcoin than trying to make it real CO2 neutral which is very very far away

Same laws which allow similar things.

Greater good for society would be a good reason. Climate change laws as well.

You can't buy lead paint anymore as well.

Why do you assume a country can't create new laws?

There is also no logical base system which would only allow certain laws to be allowed.

Great idea!

Instead of Bitcoin just consuming energy and producing hardware garbage Asics and consuming chip capacity, let's also eat it solar panels which could just create normal energy for non Bitcoin use.

Bitcoin is not becoming green just because you use renewable energy.
