Re:Crypto in 2026: Oh, This Is the Bad Place on Tuesday June 23, 2026 @10:31AM (#48645561)
I wholeheartedly agree with your comment. Stablecoins are not the problem, they are a symptom. I'm from Venezuela, the country that keeps leading in inflation. Our options are holding a currency that loses half its value in months, buying dollars in the "black market" which is illegal or using stablecoins.

I hate these type of articles because they often come from people that live in a normal country and don't know the struggle to live in a corrupt shithole where you don't have financial freedom nor security

I mean, we are already using AI to do our job, so I don't see any problem here.

HR can use AI to do interviews and developers can use AI to write 90% of the code. Sounds fair

All social media should be considered a front for government surveillance

If we are ok with flooding the world with AI generated software. I find it funny to reject the increase of comments or even articles written by AI. Can't have the cake and eat it too or something like that

Proven by whom? How did they get that number?

Is it this some kind of satire website?

It also helps people around the world to send and receive money that doesn't have the privilege to do so in a conventional way.

It is easy claiming it is useless because you don't need it, when you have no limitations or in the best case you don't need to swallow fees that start from 30%

As someone from the Southern Hemisphere, the article's point falls flat. There's more land area in the top so it makes it easier to look at it
