Any of you guys into cryptocurrency?

Trump is gonna make crypto great again too after the lawfare Gensler has been waging for the last 4 years. Gensler should be in prison with Jack Smith

Not into crypto, but my coworker is. He's definitely been happy with the bump the whole market got after Trump was elected and yes, he mentioned Gensler as well.

Been telling me for two years XRP is the coin to buy.

How do I make withdrawls at an ATM?
You matter. Unless you multiply yourself by c squared. Then you energy.

I agree, I just got a coworker that talks a ton.

Actually, in his case, he has a good amount of XRP for about .50 a coin. Now at $1.50 is pretty good, I just don't know how much a withdrawal pain it is.

Everything will be crypto in 5 years the technology is not going away.

XRP was at 2.87 this morning. Its going to be in the thousands now that Trump is in office.

Bidens policies shut down the company I worked for last year. Trump has made me more money since his election than I would have made working there for 2.5 years. This sucker is gaming big time.

I have no problem with Crypto. What I had a problem with was my coworker who couldn't even let me sit down when I arrived and lock my laptop to my desk, before he wheeled his chair over and started in on his next big payday, that never happened. I'd arrive at work around 5:30 and he was at my desk at 5:30 and 15 seconds. Fucker drove me nuts.

I will say though, that I wish I had jumped on XRP while it was around $.45 a coin. Even told my wife that if I invested $1,000 it probably wouldn't ever lose that value, but only go up. Now to see if XRP can gain more utility than cross border transactions and become more usable to the average person.

Fuck no, if the ATM will pay out in bullion I'm all for it. You aren't one of those fools who buy pieces of paper and call it gold are you? :?

Yeah, people like that are unbearable, same with vegans, same with crossfit etc.

I was just more interested in views on the technology and thoughts on where its going. Don't need uninformed idiots like pussdog slobbering about something they are clueless about and lets face it, even if he wanted to learn about crypto he isn't smart enough to grasp it.

Crypto will be one of those things that is forced on the world.

Everything will be on the blockchain. Real Estate, Banking, Insurance, Gold, Silver, Smart contracts, identities, vehicles, healthcare etc. Everything will be tokenized and run on one of the networks.

Crypto is much bigger than when the world was subjected to the internet.

I think it's obvious crypto will eventually become the digitized version of the dollar, but what I believe to be most people's issue, is they see no way they are going to strike it rich. I think most people believe our government will easily fuck the average Joe over.

I do believe some will make some big bank, but not more than a small percentage. If you can explain how many will be allowed, id appreciate that, as my coworker could never explain shit.

On a side note, this coworker used to talk about this guy on X who knew everything and his name was cryptohulk. So I went on X about a week later and saw cryptohulk had blocked him!! Lol.

A big part of the reluctance is that it's very hard to find anyone that can explain the process in a cogent manner.

Bidens administration has tried for 4 years to crush crypto and keep it under their control and not let it out of the bag. The SEC just throws big fines on crypto like XRP to stifle it because they know its the next big thing and they are trying to figure out how to screw every person hard, while they can make all the money off it and control it. Currently there are very few laws regarding crypto and trying to regulate this with old time laws is totally ridiculous. Currently they cant even define if crypto is a security, commodity or an asset. The IRS is trying hard to define crypto for everyone but they can fuck off.

99% of the influencers on youtube and X dont know anything more than anyone else and all of them are wrong 95% of the time. The only people over the last 6 to 7 years I have been following this technology that get some things right are Michael Saylor, Ben Garlinghouse, Ncashofficial to a lesser degree Alex Becker. Everyone else makes AI videos with clickbait titles and tries to act like they know whats up and are always wrong.
