      ​@@outresru7751 if you have not heard of the East India Trading Company - imagine if all the Silicon Valley tech companies combined, but were also granted the full legal protection of the British Empire, at its height to basically do whatever they wanted. This includes, but was not limited to, raising full armies, invading and conquering entire countries, and being granted the right to tax the populous of those conquered states. They were granted "trading monopoly" over both China and India, meaning that essentially all trade for both of those very substantial countries was owned by this one company - and it's estimated 15% of all trade in the Empire went through The East India Company. I cannot think of any corporation before or since that even comes close to the level of power this company was granted, albeit to the benefit of the British Crown at all times.

      @@outresru7751 Basically (from an uneducated, not totally studied at all point of view), it basically means if you were to consider companies as their own countries, they would have more money than some countries, and with more money usually comes more power. Like how the Vatican City works within Rome. In the past, the East India Trading Company was a company exporting spices from India, and had so much wealth that at some point in time it could reasonably (and probably did) have its own army and navy to control parts of India because they wanted natural resources from that area.

      To me, the value of bitcoin is that there will only ever be 21 million bitcoins. No central bank can print more bitcoins. How is anyone meant to make a good life for themselves when their own government is knowingly debasing your money so that it's worth less and less each year? Last time I checked, no one is getting a payrise that keeps up with the true cost of inflation.
      Moving from fiat to bitcoin would take away the banks power to do this. And just like real estate and gold, wouldn't you rather own a hard asset that goes up in value the longer you hold it? Why would anyone want to own something that depreciates?

    • @VincentHondius
      @VincentHondius 2 года назад +1

      Crypto takes away power from banks and countries. Bitcoin has a finite supply which protects your buying power against inflation created by the government. Governments also can't censor any crypto transactions. It also provides access to digital money to those that don't have access to a bank account (big deal in less developped countries).
      Also, banks currently basically give 0% interest, while they speculate with your money and inflation eats away your buying power. In decentralized finance, you can get the interest you deserve

These crypto wannabe millionaires/billionaires are not going to last much longer, people are starting to realize that crypto is a huge scam. Just look at how investors in that crap are being treated right now. They will not allow you to take out your money because they fear losing everything in their fake world. If a crypto company refuses to let you take out your own money, that right there is a scam. I hope the entire thing burns to the ground because a lot of people are going to get hurt by relying on this crap.

    This interview was largely weak sauce. 12% of bitcoin held by whales is patent nonsense with most figures citing a 30% minimum and Satoshi himself holding about 10%! This doesn't even factor in the enormously unbalanced concentrations in most of the other cryptos. Huge difference between crypto as a tool in the corrupt developing world and crypto in the wealthier nations. What has crypto in its 10 years of existence even achieved for middle class folk? Can I use it on Amazon? No. Too slow, exchange too unstable, fees too high. Can I borrow money with it? Sure, but only if you put down 50% collateral, absorb potential 100% losses with no insurance against counterparty risk and only after spending $100's in 'transaction fees'... how is this better than existing solutions? The heart of this debate should essentially have been solutions to late-stage capitalism or do we really need even more deregulation to enable the rich to enrich themselves without any checks and balances? Seriously, 40 years of deregulation have led to the impoverishment of the middle/working classes at the expense of capitalists/asset holders. Trickle down does not work! If you think the $7 minimum wage is bad just wait till you see what no minimum wage will look like! Think not enough is being spent on infrastructure, wait and see what'll happen when nothing is spent! Only private highways, more private hospitals, more privatised education (even more student loans)! This all just a smoke screen for rich people to avoid their societal obligations and direct money towards ends that primarily benefit them without any accountability whatsoever. A great con to allow a transfer of wealth from one group of ex-Goldman Sachs employees to the next, all while contributing nothing of actual value to society.

      Everyone overlooks that institutional investing is occurring in crypto. They believe in it and brought it to the stock market to gain global adoption to invest. The gateway to crypto is that noobs don’t know how to buy or sell. We’re still in the adoption phase.

      How often do Afghan women use crypto to evade the Taliban? She says it happens all the time but if it did crypto advocates would have better evidence than saying, believe me, I know it happens, someone on the internet told me it did, which is what most of their claims come down to and is why they can't actually give real numbers. It likely happens so rarely that no one really bothers to keep track of it. And why would it be common it doesn't work any better for a woman in Afghanistan than just having a foreign back account, in many ways it is worse considering the fees and time it takes to process the transaction.
      This is how most stuff with crypto work, it rarely is an actual solution to anything so anytime someone doesn't give a real answer to a question you can usually assume that it doesn't actually solve the problem they are claiming it does, at least not any better than other systems and they are just trying to sell you on crypto to make their investment go up.

    22:24 This woman is not wrong about the fact that we subsidize corporations; but, Tesla isn't one of them. They took a loan and paid it back with interest. Also, it was just Millions of dollars, not Billions of dollars. So, like a thousand times less than the claim here. The issue America has of not getting "it's money's worth" out of taxes is, that we don't have a uniform governmental system. States make their own tax laws on top of the federal income tax. This allows them of course to make their own expenditures and subsidies. But, let's be honest, the people of Texas subsidize Dell Computers directly, since they pay no local taxes as afforded by their original contract to keep Dell headquartered in Texas. But, the rest of the country only "subsidizes" it indirectly, since all government computers have to be American with American support contracts. This ensures that the company always has an income; but, it this isn't technically a subsidy.
