Anyone who has time to complain about wealth inequality doesn't really deserve moving upwards in the food chain, as they could've invested the same time on figuring out sensible goals for their life as well as some steps towards them.

What he said.
What if they used the time, then figured out the solutions and then realized every one of those solutions would get them killed so decided to just sit back and complain until someone else finds a better solution that doesn't get them killed?
I can't even figure out what you are getting at. Working on life will get you killed? I guess in some sense. In the long run, we're all dead.
Life is hard. Buck up, bucko - or get lapped by those willing to put in the work.
It's obvious you don't and should consider yourself lucky for it, and it has nothing to do with putting in work.

BIS chief Agustín Carstens: Bitcoin must depart from PoW.
I like how bankers starting to sweat they know Bitcoin will eat their lunch

I experience a churning of my stomach when I see non-sense like that. It is a sign of desperation, like you are suggesting, and it there is a kind of "holy cow" regarding the level of misinformation that is presented by the underlying assertion.
Some folks don't realize that the "holy shit" of bitcoin is wrapped up in its proof of work, so proof of work is a feature, not a bug. Proof of work causes bitcoin incentive, and like you suggested, paashaas, will continue to generate incentives that cause the downfall of the whole financial system, causing value to flow into bitcoin. The audacity of the article seems to show that there are many traditional financial incumbents who will be willing to battle quite strenuously to spread their nonsense about bitcoin supposedly being flawed, when in fact they are pointing out central features.. namely POW in this case.
By the way, bitcoin is stubborn and very difficult to change, too, and that remains as a feature rather than a bug to defend against misinformation campaigns that try to get bitcoin to become paypal-like, so stop whining about how stubborn and "inefficient" bitcoin is you fucking bank shill bitcoin naysayers.
terse
your point?
I like.

Is the Coindesk summary of the BIS report on Bitcoin true?
Hardly a new or worrying conclusion.
The core of the matter is and remains: is it 'good money'... (at least, better than fiat).
We know the answer
Quote
The document’s overall conclusion is that, according to the researchers, “in the digital age too, good money is likely to remain a social construct rather than a purely technological one.”

I had Some genorosty of a few sendable merits yesterday, but HM single handed took most of them, and you get the last one love your attitude/opinion MAN

no!
Whoever filled in the answers was trying to be funny, largely failed. The dig at coindesk is good, and some other bits.
An actually funny set of answers would be useful, and a serious one to beat the Nouriels with.

Life is hard. Buck up, bucko - or get lapped by those willing to put in the work.
I dated a girl for a number of years.
Her father was wealthy and powerful. He owned 25+ houses that he rented out. He was also a drunk and highly abusive.
The mother eventually divorced him after a series of domestic violence incidents. The father decided to make the mother's life a living hell. He hired lawyers to sue the mother for everything under the sun, stalked the mother and tried to destroy her friendship networks. This went on for five years.
The mother grew deeply depressed and semi suicidal. My girlfriend and her sister at the age of 8 had to get the mother out of bed in the morning, get her dressed so the mother could drive them to school. Some days they couldn't get their mother out of bed so they missed school.
My girlfriend was incredibly smart and motivated but she missed a lot of school during that five year period. It affected her grades and she had to work hard to try to catch up. She also had the mental load of trying to parent her own mother through the divorce and aftermath. There is no doubt in my mind if she had had a normal, stable childhood, she would have been a surgeon or rocket scientist. Instead she will likely never achieve her full potential.
Let's not kid ourselves that everyone has equality of opportunity. Because they don't.
Hairy, you always prove to be ONE of the very very very sober people/posters of this thread no matter what the topic or the circumstancess are
Keep up your good Posts man *highly respected*
