lol yeah when all the CCTV's catch you stealing that dropped money and charge you with theft
The "problems" you've listed have been very clearly debated for the past 5 years. You can find answers. Youre just repeating talking points.

There's more than enough evidence that the government is lying to you. Past and present.

Okay, sorry, I mean to find ANY flaw in bitcoin's protocol there is the weight of the entire market's worth hanging in the jeopardy. The incentive is to always be trying to crack it. So far, unsuccessfully.

Dont you think the incentive to find a double spend flaw in bitcoin is large enough due to it's ever-increasing market cap?

Theres a literal incentive for bitcoin miners to find the cheapest use of energy possible. Literally pushing the technology to find efficiencies
We as a society deem it a fair use of energy to have dryers, and christamas lights all year long, which use more energy that a decentralized monetary system that brings sovereign banking to the masses. Before letting this story and all the other propaganda make you angry (intended) actually look what bitcoin IS, how it works, and what problems it solves in the world. A comparison that always comes to mind is like someone saying that the internet is a big waste of energy.
Saying it's a waste is like putting a moral qualifier on the use of energy - and for the purpose and affect that this decentralized monetary system can have on the world is definitely worth it in my eyes. People dont make a fuss about using 2 clothes dryers and 24/7 christmas lights that use more energy, but hey that's an approved use of energy.

Not Youtubes job to determine what is truth and a lie, but they obviously think it is
thank you. big problem today is attributing racism in any situation where outcomes are perceived to be different because of weird contextual framing.

Even worse with fiat
That's cause this idea is completely immoral
If only everyone had a choice in where they spend their time and energy. Oh they do.
It also implies that it's not a consensual agreement with your workplace. If you can figure out how to live your life without working, youre allowed to. Slaves... not so much
