The issue with SO is also that the quality of the answers degrades over time.
Asking similar questions will get closed as dupes while the referenced 2011 answer is basically useless nowadays.

Currently it's photography for me.
I'm documenting graffiti on freight trains a lot, but also taking pictures of other urban/nature/landscape scenes.
Took ten thousands of photos in the past years with a full-frame camera to the point that wielding the camera is second nature.
Also learnt editing raw files with a professional tool and trying to improve on it.
I hate taking photos with my smartphone now.

I somehow feel crypto is very alive and it's here to stay.
It's still a strong hedge against state-owned money.
The people declaring it dead either don't grasp it or got burnt by buying in during the last bull run.
Take a step back guys, if you trade, trade anticyclic, now is a better time to buy than two years ago - just sayin.

You need to provide origin of funds for purchases exceeding a few thousand bucks (depending on jurisdiction). At some point you would wanna sell the NFT to buy something from it.
I mean sure, there is the dark web, or face to face trading... If you're into that.

Sending crypto through a mixer isn't money laundering.
You still need to effectively launder it afterwards to say - buy a house from it.
Mixing is just the first step to cover the tracks after committing a financial crime.

Without bitcoin, there wouldn't be cryptocurrencies mined with GPUs.
