What are you talking about blurry? Upscaled DVD is perfectly fine. For most movies from the 80s and 90s it's not like you're going to notice a difference going to Blu Ray or UHD streaming.

Over a Russian cryptocoin? Weird spot to draw the line. Ethereum Classic is still running with billions of USD in market cap after the last fork that happened years ago. Why does anyone think this fork is anything except another way for the controllers to cash out before their scam bubble pops?

Another stage of the grift where all the scammers get double the coins and cash out even more. The miners aren't going to stop mining. There will be another "classic" fork situation. Maybe we're near the end after all?

Tether is not regulated or licensed by any body AFAIK so they aren’t required to process payment requests with any sort or timeliness. lul
Same with the unlicensed and unregulated exchanges that they do business with. You want out? Take a number and get in line.
