I am toxic AF, because I care, I know you don't see it now but one day you're going to look back on these posts and be like damn this guy warned me. I don't do this for anyone else but me, I am trying to be the voice I wanted when I first got in
You are viewing a single comment's thread from:
Riddle me this though, you talk about Bitcoin as being infallible, and everything that comes after it as being a waste of space, do you not see the irony in that view, considering how Bitcoin came into existence and how exchanges treat it like fiat in fractional reserve banking system?
Also, the fact that you share your content on Hive contradicts your view that Bitcoin is the only crypto that exists because if it were left to you, Hive will not exist and you'll be on Twitter or some other centralised platform talking about how Bitcoin is better than gold and there will be millions of Peter Schiffs telling you that you're wrong.
So here's my take on that, yes I don't belive in bitcoin rehypothecation, but I can't account for the market and peoples willingness take risk and generate a yeild, they will lose their bitcoin and I look forward to to the day it happens, it's happened before and it will happen time and time again.
Bitcoin is a self custody asset, the appreciation of the asset is based on the protocol and the cost of proof of work verus the cost to create other goods and services at a profit. That's what most shitcoiners don't get they think its all about code, but its not.
Hive is a centralised platform, just like Twitter, just like all the others, I use it to drive traffic to my website, like i do others websites. HIVE and all its front ends will die eventually just like Google+ did and many other sites, doesn't mean I didn't use Google+ to send traffic to my websites
I am not advocating for hive, I don't shill it, I don't give a fuck about the token. I openly critique it, and people claim it's meant to be a free speech platform, so I should be able to say what I like on here while furthering my ambitions to drive traffic to my own site.
Does that help?
Pretty disingenuous of you to say Hive is centralised like Twitter but that's your opinion and it's okay.
Also fascinating that you don't reject the rewards you receive on Hive, which is not an indictment on you but a plus to hive that someone can outrightly not give a fuck but still earn from it.
Wouldn't you say that all things considered, Hive is somewhat like Bitcoin, since you can outrightly have apathy for it but still earn from it? I mean, isn't Bitcoin anticensorship like Hive also is?
I'm not trying to change your opinion or anything though, just trying to pick your brain and understand your rationale.

Can you explain to me how it's disingenuous? Twitter has more data centres than HIVE does, in fact some witnesses run their shit through 3rd party data centers, so there's a case to be made that Twitter is in fact more decentralised and more robust from a data protection standpoint,
Everyone has a right not to support me with tokens, I don't care if they do or they don't plenty of people have removed their upvote from me, I don't care. I mean I could easy act like a shill like most people on here to up rewards, but I don't, doesn't that speak enough volume? Should I be more altruistic than that? It's a free market is it not?
Nope, hive is nothing like bitcoin, because some people have preferential access, they can change things and none of you can do anything about it. You claim hive is decentralised, but how do you know this? Where is your proof?
My bitcoin node is running right next to me now, I am verifying the chain, I have the proof right infront of me and Im not even running bitcoin core, I can choose the software I want. I am not running a node I bought, I built it myself so I have full transparency on the hardware and software. Can you say the same for the networks you advocate for?
I mean, you're only saying this now because Bitcoin has a fat ass market cap that can't get hit by a 51% attack. Satoshi is pretty much like the other devs that wrote other decentralized protocols.
Also, there's nothing stopping you from running a Hive witness server and add your own layer of protection to the chain, kind of like the way you run your Bitcoin node.
Comparing Hive to Twitter by claiming Twitter's various data centers that literally all belong to one entity is some form of decentralisation is laughable.
