Yeah i suppose any form of payment that you have to keep secret for some reason is a reason to use crypto, though I struggle to imagine needing that if you're not doing something dodgy

imagine you’re a YouTuber and want to accept donations: that will force you to give out your name to them, which they could use to get your address and phone number. There’s always someone that hates you, and I rather not have them knowing my personal info

Wat. Crypto is not good at solving that, it's in fact much much worse than traditional payment methods. There's a reason scammers always want to be paid in crypto

if you’re the seller then it’s a lot better. With the traditional banking system, with enough knowledge you can cheat both sides: stolen cards, abusive chargebacks, bank accounts in other countries under fake name/fake ID…

Crypto simplifies scamming when the seller, and pretty much makes it impossible for buyers

What specifically are you boycotting?

Card payments, international tranfers, national transfers taking days to complete, money being seizable at all times

many banks lose money on them

Their plans are basically all focused on the card you get. Pretty sure they make money with it, else many wouldn’t offer cash back (selling infos and getting a fee from card payments?)

if you think the people that benefit from you using crypto (crypto exchange owners and billionaires that own crypto etc.) are less evil than goverment regulated banks, you're deluded.

Banks are evil anyways, does it really change anything? The difference is that it technically helps everyone using crypto, not only the rich.

Plus P2P exchanges are a thing

You'll spend more money using crypto for that, not less

That’s just factually false. Do you know the price of a swift transfer? Now compare it to crypto tx fees, with many being under $0.01

You came on here and made sweeping statements about the trans communities on lemmy based on your limited interactions. That's what I'm referring to!

Now you’re just hallucinating things. You made this up. I’m not against transgenders at all.

Well anyways your comment speaks of your insanity by itself so there’s no need to continue further

Isn’t that the same thing that made you give me the transphobic tag? Because you seem to be making your own definition of what’s transphobia

What’s wrong with saying "people on X instance act like dumbasses" when they prove you right every time? It’s transphobic to point out my own experiences? Thus I guess saying that hexbear is full of genocide denying is discriminatory and same for saying republicans tend to be xenophobic fascists?

When you get a good enough sample, associating something with a population is not wrong unless something proves it wrong. The likeliness of it being true is high. And even then, when the fuck did I say something about transgenders? When did I accuse them of anything? I’ve said that censorship around this issue is high and most defenders of the cause I’m opening a debate about are super entitled, censor things and flat out lie. If you believe only trangenders support this transgender athletes not being regulated and always being authorized then you’re transphobic according to your own words

conclusion that contradicts Science

What science? You’ve not given any source to back your claims. Science does NOT say that transgender women athletes and cisgender women athletes are equal.

you don't care about inequality in sports or you'd be concerned about the inequality money provides

How the fuck is this related? Rules can be decided easily, but making it so that each person has equal chance to get money is impossible and out of the question anyways. If you want to, then yea it changes the outcome, but we’re not fucking talking about all inequalities that exist else we wouldn’t stop talking. I’m focusing on a specific angle that has a high impact on the subject and that we can actually have an impact on.

(who don't have an outsized advantage)

If you want to play this game then sure. Your conclusion contradicts science. If you don’t provide sufficient proof then you’re lying just like me I guess

You're trying to claim you're Just Asking Questions, but it takes very little time interacting with you for your views to become abundantly clear. You are not nearly as clever or subtle as you think.

You’re acting like a SJW and a science guy but you’re just pushing your own opinion without providing any proof and just spreading lies like "science says this" when it doesn’t.

You’re not defending anything but idiocy

I’m done talking with you. I’ve lost enough time to an hypocritical liar. There’s no crowd and this is going nowhere. We’re just both losing our time.

You’re the one defending the mass deletion of past Reddit content…

The original post was about that at least. It pretty logical to assume you’re talking about the same thing

They do if you use the client and we have testimonials of people claiming this. Playing online multiplayer also requires using the client.

Your comment was about using Heroic launcher. I don't know why you want to misinform.

on GOG summer sale is live · c/games · 3 pts · 1y

since they can't exactly track how many hours you've played

They can and do if you use the client

And stubbornly entitled

Their uncle must’ve been rug pulled when buying a shitcoin or something and now they believe crypto is nothing but a scam

But yea there’s nothing to do. If you can’t educate them then let them stay in their ignorance if they like it. I just don’t feel that letting them spread their misinformation is a good thing

I’m not discrediting a group or marginalized people haha, I’m discrediting a stupid misinformation and censorship reason

EXTREMELY LIMITED and STATISTICALLY IRRELEVANT experiences.

Surely you’re all professional athletes here. And wtf are you talking about? I’m talking about the studies and researches I’ve done, not things I’ve experienced. You’re just lying.

Then you proceed to do some mocking because your post was pretty much empty of any thing so might as well continue

Get over it. Honestly, get over yourself. Grow up.

I feel you’re the one getting triggered here. This makes it funnier when you see this totally applies to you

You’re right. Let's do value judgment and not stick to facts. That’s how you get the truth.

You’re being manichean, proving my point. I’m not either with or against you. I don’t have to agree to everything you believe and not actively fighting for more or different trans rights (if this even falls in this category) does not make me transphobic. You’re delusional.

if you sell something for $1 at 10am your $1 still buys $1 at 10pm.

This is untrue for pretty much everything, even fiat. Everything is a market. A good example of this: stocks.

in crypto, it's easily manipulated, and that's by design.

Now this is just false. You’re just inventing fake facts here. You clearly know nothing of the history of crypto.

If I sell 1BT worth of something at 10am, it could be worth 2BT at 10pm, but it could also be worth .1BT equally.

Uhh no? 1 BTC will always be 1 BTC. Its value compared to other assets will change though. And in that case it would have less value indeed. You’re just allergic to high variations and high risks assets. Stocks is exactly the same. Some assets vary more than others. Let me assure you the value of BTC will never do a +/-10x in a day

tell me, what governing body or economy is crypto backed by?

Emission (POW, POS…) (or total stock), demand and offer and perceived value, just like everything on earth?
