We ban accounts that troll HN as you have in this thread. No more of this please.

You've also been posting mostly unsubstantive comments in general lately. Would you please fix this? We're hoping for better than that here.

You're really tempting fate twice here :))

I would say so. You attempted to use sarcasm in a community of people who dis-proportionally don't pick up on sarcasm, using a medium that notoriously doesn't transmit sarcasm well.

It isn’t that people here don’t pick up sarcasm it’s that sarcasm as an entire comment isn’t really welcome here. This isn’t Reddit and comments are supposed to have substance.

It's both! Sorry I'll see myself out.

Yes but I laughed and maybe a couple others. The OP comment was by a crypto throwaway account, the subtle message was there anyway, I just blew it up. Graeber is completely correct about Haiti getting screwed over by debt but I wanted the Bitcoin message underlying it to be exposed and have more substantial conversation about financial policies that could help. Did it work? Maybe.

Whats bitcoin again?

Bitcoin is definitely a scam. Just like fiat money, though. https://henvic.dev/posts/bitcoin/
