I mean. My bank isn't open on Saturday at 5:30 so. I can't even partake if it wasn't a joke.
So you think it is a joke too? But it is like utterly unfuny. I'm wasting to much brain energy on this rn tbh

I guess Bitcoin just draws all kind of folk.
Cheers!

this is indeed a joke, but a lot of banks are fractional reserve banks, they do not in fact keep all of the money in your bank account, rather they loan it. If a large enough amount of people were to get their money out the banks would be in a very dire spot. The joke is the bank system itself
reply
Come on guy, everybody knows what fractional banking is.
I'm not saying this isn't funny because I can't laugh about this subject. It isn't funny because there is no punchline in the end. That's why I'm wondering.

Exactly 💯.

A lot of libertarian humor is just unfunny circlejerking.

What’s your problem with circlejerking?

If the funny still can't be found in even the darkest of adversity I'd consider that a loss, sound money or not.

You don't have ATMs where you live?
