Dunno, maybe a polished turd?

I'm pretty sure no one owns a patent on farm trucks or any other basic farm equipment.

would like to invite asylum seekers to stay at his home where he will clothes and feed them

My profile says "dollars only" and it's pretty funny you'd be trying to send me Bitcoin after I've spend all these words arguing in favor of fiat lol.

So far, there has not been any other metric.

Correct. > In post modernity nobody depends on each other, but its the zero and the infinite. The individual depending on the giants Big Government and Big Corporations... That's why it keeps fragmenting and people don't come together. No need to depend, no group. Unless we intentionally decide to depend... Is that the future. The coexistence of these two models. Or is there no chance and we will be enslaved? Depending on big corps instead of your neighbors is a convenience and an indulgence like fast food. It'll go horribly wrong in the long run just like eating (only) fast food will go horribly wrong in the long run. You will need to muster some willpower to resist the temptation in either case.

You use rotating keys for signing, not for encryption. For encryption you can look at something like the double ratchet protocol. You basically create ephemeral keys that you throw away instead of revealing them.

Yeah but past performance doesn't guarantee future results. Read the original post by on top of this thread again. If Bitcoin doesn't deliver as a medium of exchange sooner or later the speculative bubble will burst.

Just a food problem move on nothing to see here.

They need to stay with fiat all the way to have some measure of stability. If they detour via Bitcoin they're at risk of high losses.

We're talking about zapping here.

No? They can just use Bitcoin? They just *prefer* fiat just like me.
