Cryptocurrencies add nothing useful to society, says chip-maker Nvidia
I do not own any crypto myself. The grown-up opinion is of course to view all crypto ""investments"" with extreme skepticism, which is an absolutely sane and correct position.<p>With that said, I like the <i>idea</i> of cryptocurrencies simply because they are punk as f*ck, and I'd like whatever leadership in charge to know that they do not have absolute power to run anyone else's life.<p>Apart from magic internet money, I cannot figure out any other way in which to "make myself heard".<p>With every indirection the gov't adds through decision taken by ombudsman/committee, the more power asymmetry is added which just fuels my sense of a system driven by amoral technocrats.
