    30:00 not sure Vinny is right about that. Do seemed to be running a Ponzi scheme in effect, and he was promoting and pumping his tokens (both LUNA and USDT) on a daily basis on Twitter and elsewhere for a long time

    TIL: if you are TOO good at sales, habitually set records, race past determined targets consistently…..
    The incentives do a 180, and quickly punish over achievers by showing them the door.

    Holy crap! What kind of system is this?

    So, the overachievers who eventually figure this out. Where do they end up?

    Do they then go to wall street where the Caps are either insanely higher or removed altogether?

    Where do the enlightened sales people go to continue crushing it under a more rewarding system?

    If you 10x the blocksize of bitcoin, you threaten the decentralisation of the network. The normal shmuck won't be able to run a node and a miner in remote areas with bad internet speed will all vanish. It's not a commitment to pollute the earth at all costs, it is a commitment to the world to have it as decentralized and accesible for everyone who wants to use it or needs to use it

    You need to get Michael Saylor on here to teach you guys about Bitcoin and energy usage. I’m sorry but everyone here does not understand it. Vinny did his best but he is not an expert

  8. Goran Spasojevic

    Crypto: huge opportunity missed to point out that Bitcoin's energy use is one of its biggest assets and security features. A sufficiently funded entity can take over any proof of stake chain over night. The same cannot happen with PoW.

    Molly Wood COMPLETELY DESTROYS cryptobros trying to defend BITCOIN POLLUTION

    lmao for real though Molly presented the environmental and economic arguments against Bitcoin perfectly. The hypothetical longtail positive impact pales in comparison to the scale of the current negative impact, ESPECIALLY when there are alternatives that exist right now!

    Let’s just keep in mind the infrastructure visa as a business needs to maintain in order to be able to have those transaction volumes. There’s a cost attached to that, including environmental. Comparing with crypto or bitcoin makes no sense. This energy consumption conversation is a bit oversimplified.

    The bias towards Solana is becoming frustrating. Need to switch up your crypto experts to people outside of the Solana VC ecosystem. Whether that's Bitcoin or Cardano or ethereum does not matter

    < first got into BTC back in 2016 and have been hodling/buying assets at different price points since. I've been through corrections before and will likely experience more over the future. Volatility is simply the price one needs to pay if they want to play. I don't have any Alts as I'm a bit of a BTC Maxi, but that said, if BTC hasn't died before, it surely won't do so now. Stick in there – yes we are all feeling the pain, but over the long run this will just be a blip. This is how I see past corrections when I felt that I got in at a high (back then I think it was less than $1000 and bouncing all over the place!). Now when I look back, all I see is regret for not having the courage in buying more at those times. But if you believe BTC has value, then by all means, buy the dips if you can afford to. For those who got in at 60 or 70K and feeling the crunch: hang in there. BTC is not a get rich quick scheme. Wait it out and you will see: you will come away stronger. I buy and just trade long term more than ever, I have made over 11` btc with 3.1btc in just 5weeks from day trading with Expert MR. Leon Calvin Crypto in few weeks this is one of the best medium to backup your assets incase it goes bearish. Technical analysis is my second You can reach Mr. Leon Calvin on ͲeIєɠɾαm @ leoncalvintrade. for any crypto related issues.
