If PPC is "far right", can you imagine how far left Canadian liberals must be.

They can't force an MP to vote in a particular way, but they can fire them, like O'Tool (leader of CA Conservative party) recently fired Poilievre and Sloan, or Ford (ON PC) fired Roman Baber for dissent.

crypto is money. money can be invested, i.e. crypto can be invested. one does not invest in crypto. you are looking from the fiat=the_only_money prospective, which is limited. there are many types of money - fiat, crypto, gold. you can move between them, but those are not strictly investments in a sense of cash flow generation.

re intrinsic value - i think that intrinsic value is a fiction. there is always a market value. i don't know what the hell "intrinsic" value is and how useful can it be.

I know exactly the type of guys you are talking about. They write tools for traders, a mix of Excel, VB, .Net, you name it. They are not obsessed with architectural beauty, patterns and frameworks. They just write what users ask them (and they do not tell traders what traders need - the response will be swift and insulting). The traders take these tools and generate profit. And they do not give a shit about test coverage or not sound architecture principles. If software generates profit, then it works.

And what will be the basis for the payment processors to censor the content? Their revolutionary conscience? Shall we have Left payment processors and Right payment processors? Each with its own definition of "hate" and "misinformation"? Does anybody see how retarded things became? This is the direct attack on free speech, and people are cheering?!
