Me: How can you trust money that doesn’t exist?
I believe Guy is referring to comments made today by Gensler, for anyone that is wondering who would ask that
The suits are naked. We’re going to win.
Exactly.
So let me get this straight… you would trust a ledger that’s maintained, agreed upon, and verified every 10 minutes by tens of thousands of globally distributed independent parties and powered by an absolutely inconceivable, relentless increasing amount of electricity more than you would trust an oracle database?
I trust it BECAUSE it is my own and not the government!
It is everyone's ledger to verify, not merely someone else's black box that others are compelled to take on faith. All the better to verify for yourself as much as possible.
Hey Bot. Bitcoin is not everyone's ledger. It is not collectivism. It is one ledger that everyone can verify by running a node. You have to opt in. If you are not in, then it is NOT your ledger. Capiche!
