NFT's are Fundamentally a MLM-Type Scam Designed to Get You to Buy Crypto

My narrative is facts and honesty.

You struggle because you realise person Y from colombia will have to at some point register with an exchange to get his money. either that or sell it to another criminal for a lower amount of physical cash.

That’s good. We are talking about NFT’s based on crypto and how it affects the world and how it could affect the game we all play.

No he doesn’t, he uses the BTC as a placeholder. If that word is better.
The placeholder insures person Z he would have money in case the appartment block/house doesn’t get the rent person Y hopes to get.
I hope I explained this example but there are other examples which are less straight forward but none of them should involve Person Y redeeming any BTC for cash unless he’s going to retire and even then it would be stupid. He better tells no one of the BTC and lets it go ‘to sleep’ when he dies.

Sorry you have completely lost me.

It’s ok, it was just one of the many examples. And it is quite a complex system. We can just discuss other things as I’m certain we have some kind of translation/language barrier going at the moment.

No, In your effort to promote BTC is a scam you have reached a hurdle, and you are squirming, rethink whatever your thinking and then explain with facts how person Y from colombia will get his BTC from a shady deal turned into physical cash.

It’s called dura mater. Again, no brain, no pain.

Says the retard claiming that GPU and ASIC are the same.

Either it’s currency and it does not need to be exchanged. Or it needs to be exchanged for currency, and it’s not.

Person Y and his business partner Person Z build an appartment complex, right?
The persons A, B, C, D, E and F who rent the building pay real money, right?

It’s not a currency it’s more like a safeguard. Person Y also sells those videocards per gram locally anyways.

You keep on saying it’s a currency and also keep saying it has to be converted to a real currency. Kinda weird flex.

While the original person who received the GPU’s is arrested for other offences and his house searched and GPU’s found, which happen to be the same ones stolen. How can you be sure this person won’t show the bitcoin address he sent the money to to the police? and then the police can get that BTC frozen.

Lots can happen, please stop talking like its easy for criminals to use BTC, factually it is not.

You’ve had my full agreement on environmental issues and BTC, so you can’t try to pretend I’m ignorant.

That sometimes happens, but the hypothetical Person X is not arrested yet. So I’m not sure why you change MY hypothetical story to suit your narrative.

But okay, lets assume the internet police breaks down Person X’s front door and arrests him while searching his house… for let’s say public indecency and peeing in the mailbox of the federal police station.

Why would he talk? Does he hate his fingers? How will the Hypothetical French Federal Police make sure Person Y from Columbia doesn’t send his team from Miami to deal with Lonny Looselips (Person X’s nickname, ok lol)?

But yes, I can understand that if some random idiot becomes an international drug trafficker and gets caught he will immediately show all financial transactions hoping he will be completely broke when he leaves jail. Hypothetically speaking this is a danger but then again, I think Person X is a smart Frog.

No I changed it to reflect reality, police do raid houses if a judge signs off on it. I’m not saying it will happen in your example I’m saying to consider it as a possibility which is what criminals will also do.

He might be offered a lighter sentence if he talks, this is something criminals also have to consider when dealing with other criminals.

It does happen on occasion, but if they snitch, they risk the stitch (or worse). But getting caught or not isn’t affected by the bitcoin. Bitcoin is a very useful tool being better than the Western Money transfer. Because a non business is always better than a business that is being subjected to government oversight. That’s what I in general try to explain. Regularisation and centralisation (per economical region or country)is an important factor of cryptocoin’s acceptance.

He has a lot of competitors to give to the police lol. he’s not going to cut the branch he’s sitting on. Neither does a rabbit gnaw off a leg that’s not trapping it. If what you assume would work, drug crime would have ended in the late 80’s. But we all know better. It’s more centralized and powerful than ever and bitcoin is just another stepping stone to make it easier and faster.

I’m sure some criminals use it successfully, perhaps it’s more lower value transactions that help criminals stay under the radar. Did you know in the UK if you walk into a bank with £50k in cash they can actually call the police and get you to confirm how you got it. I think Crypto exchanges will eventually have to report this type of thing.

That’s awesome. But what if they say the sold an NFT? :wink:

PS: Just kidding, it’s good that there is a check on large transactions, if not the situation would be even worse.

Oh, and also ;

OMFG it looks like Aaron posted on their site before they made the vid :smiley:

“I’m sure you definitely won’t end up like the many amateurs who lose their life savings on a gamble they don’t understand because a fast talking youtuber with no credential and a vested interest in keepin the scheme going told them to give it a shot”.
That looks that someone in that thread … not sure if Aaron is youtuber though. But I know he is slow thinking.

“You can buy [NFT] now and sell it later to someone dumber than you. […] They have other uses too, like escaping taxes and money laundering”

This is an interesting video, apparently the last bitcoin will be mined in 2140 so if intel can make the best miner/asic that would be good. Most miners actually think Bitmain and other manufacturers are awful.

It’s most likely AMD and Nvidia will make their own asic’s for BTC, this will create an income for the next 120 years.

The 2nd video is Voskcoin, he is a crypto miner and youtuber, it’s a good channel he explains mining very well and has visited some of the biggest GPU and ASIC farms in the world.

El Salvador accepts bitcoin.

Corrupt officials hate sanctions, love bitcoin.

It keeps going on showing you can pay bills with legal tender. It’s soooo easy! Because he had to take the bus 1 hour, wait an hour, get back 1 hour. Doesn’t like the banks app because that would have skewed his false comparison.

Oh, and then the second video about how an American company can make devices better (less wastefull) than a Chinese one… who would have guessed it, it did lack the LIVELEAK logo though. It will be zero carbon footprint, they say. They say. Let’s hope so. But I think it’s a scam.

Update from Reuters :

Actually, they hope US crypto to be sent to El Salvador. lol. To increase the money supply and print money. #InBeforePriceRises. But yes, it’s for the poor, so tehy can fork out more money.
The Bukele government hopes that 2.5 million Salvadorans living in the United States will eventually send remittances through Chivo.
