Retarded. This is just lack of understanding basic economics to imagine the dollar will be around forever 😂🤣🤡

Is this the best ya got for controversial?

Certainly it wont happen in our lifetime.

Do you have bank account ser?

Timeline is total speculation, not an absolute. I do not even rule out 1000 years of fiat even if I assign it a practically infinitesimal probability.

Imagine a 1 week blackout after natural disaster or war.
Do you expect there will be something like trusted bitcoin-backed notes?
If not, I listen to your proposition. How would commerce continue in such case?

reply

When you are looking for weird edge cases with a tiny scope, you can simply accept defeat with honor, rather than feigning ignorance as to the legal notion of spirit of the law.

But yes, bitcoin bearer instruments would be what you want in that situation, along with physical supplies. You have to be really dumb to think dollars will hold value so you can trade them after a natural disaster. Be better. Be a bitcoiner. Live like a bitcoiner.

I didnt mention dollars so you must be talking about someone else.

Considering onchain isnt for day-to-day. It couldt be something like opendime. So there will have to be trust involved.

What defeat? This isnt debate to win. Im curious whats your solution for something that happens quite frequently in many parts of the world. I had 8h blackout today. So it got me curious how would bitcoin fix that

reply

All right, maybe misinterpreted based on barrage of other comments, but check this out.

I forget whether it's on chain or not, but idk why you can't do something similar to Offline Cash with Lightning, or perhaps a not fully trustless Chaumian mint.

Whats problematic is - you never know in advance when big backout happens. So having amount of trusted or semitrusted notes just in case doesnt seem like viable option.

Gonna ask guys who develop custodial wallets what they think.

Well, it seems that for emergency preparedness, having food, batteries, bullets etc will be what matters. If you can't move about easily, you might not be able to transact effectively.

A company can make their own token and mandate them inside their ecosystem. Making a fiat.

I will make such just to make sure you wont be correct as you live. There will be some fiat all your life. Deal with it or cry harder

reply

You are a contrived son of a central banker 🤡

reply

Anything to see you cry :) I need to hydrate *slurp

reply

Why would I cry? I am obviously right. You can go ahead and cry when your precious fiat is all gone in a decade or two.

reply

your bloodline is weak

reply

Cos I ordered you to :D
You my little bitch
Now please cry some more.

ok fiatist with bank account :D

reply

Where did I say dollar will be around forever? Fiat will be around, not dollar.

Its pretty controversial when I get people putting words in my mouth to object :)

reply

USD 2.0, whatever you want to call it, doesn't make a difference, equally moronic

reply

Glad we agree fiat wont go away.

reply

Nope, all fiats will die and you're a moron if you don't get why

reply

In previous message you said USD 2.0 will be around. Why are you talking that way about yourself?
