      I mean, that quote is truer for any regular currency than it is for shitcoin. The only unique thing about cryptocurrency (and especially POW ones) is that it’s flushing the environment down the drain even quicker than bog standard hypercapitalism. And still you can’t use your fucking monopoly money to buy a bottled water.

        Not “especially”, but “specifically” POW. I don’t agree about their worthlessness, but even if I did, it’s POW that’s shitting on the environment, not other systems.
