Do you realise the integrity of Bitcoin is based on asymmetric encryption? The same asymmetric encryption that is only safe so long as computers lack the processing power to apply Shor’s algorithm?

I bet you f**ken don’t.

Did you know your rent is due tomorrow? Your residency relies on the fact that you are obliged to pay your landlord.

I bet you f**ken forgot.

I'm happy to pay him. It's a bit small but it's a f**ken nice place in a good school zone.

The alternative is to buy somewhere shitty and throw my kid in the piranha tank every school day. Just so I could brag about owning real estate to wankers like you? You must think my priorities are as f**ked as yours.

Bro there plenty who find themselves in a rental cycle. Paying rent and saving for a deposit, whilst trying to provide a safe environment for their family is very difficult.

When I left school a modest flat or house was 5 times annual salary. Now it is 17 times.

Not everyone are as fortunate as some. I have friends who have been on one income bc of their two kids have disabilties. Dad works two jobs but there is not much left after paying $650/w food petrol power etc.

I worry for them what will happen when they get to retirement age and still need to pay rent. He jokes and says that he may need to move to Asia. Don't think he is joking actually.

I understand brother but why do these people think they can give me financial advice?

And I haven’t even had my first coffee and I’m grumpy.

Ripple is a centralized coin. I made money on that earlier in the year purely on speculation but it is not finite like bitcoin. That is it’s weakness.

Every old school currency that has worked well is pegged back to a finite product like gold or oil. It’s as we all know mines or refined, just like Bitcoin.

However currency corruption like in the case of the USA just keep printing money until the system collapses. And what will they do when it does?

Answer: Virtual currency. It’s here to stay boys and the daddy of them all will be used as the benchmark no matter what they pick. It will be the gold standard of what other virtual currencies are valued at and like gold it will find it’s value and be less volatile and rise during a crisis and remain steady when the good times roll.

In this digital age we don’t need pieces of gold that we can touch just like we don’t need physical devices to save shit on. It’s all in the cloud and it’s the same reason why we don’t need physical pieces of gold anymore, we just need the new virtual gold called Bitcoin.

The doomsdayers are thinking analog in a digital world and are still in the denial stage. However deep down know it’s a revolutionary phenomenon that they cannot stop.

Avie, you do know the cloud where you save your shit is physical don't you? It's just that you don't own it, you rent it from someone else (like Pou's house). Technically they can jack up the price or even take it away from you if they choose.
