@itsmect mentioned this too but it is wild how this community just hates cryptpo. There’s a good chance the instance you’re on accepts it for donations. Why would they do that if it is so unusable and bad? Open source everything except the money. Makes no sense.

Lol after this comment Bitcoin surpassed silvers market cap making it the 8th most valuable asset in the world. So glad people who don’t understand it and hate it don’t get to ruin it for the rest of us.

Why would people do something stupid and against their best interests? Hm, I wonder.

There is a lot of propaganda pushing the price down. It’s funny that they think the cryptobros have half a trillion dollars and still keep pushing the price up.

Open source everything except the money.

this is a truly perplexing statement. what about a currency that is controlled predominantly by early adopters has anything to do with open source?

Bitcoin Core is MIT licensed.

There is value in having core functions of society like social medla and money decentralized and running on open source software even though it will not fix wealth inequality.

Like the rest of society, some people get ridiculous wealth by luck of being at the right place at the right time. That is no reason to not have open source money.

There are many issues with bitcoin but that one I do not buy.

the software is, but what relevance does that have to people using it as currency?

thats not the point, there have been studies that show bitcoin is fairly vulnerable to 50% control due to early adopters and other wHaLeS controlling the currency. and the studies can show this because bitcoin isnt private.
