  • The real answer is: It depends how you define value.

    Can you make money with Bitcoin? Yes. Are you likely to make money? No Is the technology useful applicable? Yes Is it being used and applied ethically and for the good of people? No. Is it a ‘store of value’? No, it’s more like an extremely volatile stock or a lottery ticket. Can you use it like money? Yes Is there any reason to use it like money? Not really, not even among other cryptocurrencies.

    Depending on which of these aspects of Bitcoin matter to you it will be more or valuable.














  • No, just no. You’re missing the point. Poor people are poor people, some are immigrants, some are not.

    Anything that benefits poor immigrants will also benefit poor citizens. Anything that enriches white nationals, will enrich the rich immigrants that can become nationals just paying money anyways.

    It is your boss taking away your job and giving it to the lowest bidder. It doesn’t matter who the bidder is. There will always be someone poorer than you, willing to work for less out of desperation. Sometimes they ar immigrants, sometimes they are white nationals.


  • Yeah this is my biggest point too. If they aren’t receiving income, how are they supposed to access mental health services? In what world an ‘employer’ that barely pays their workers is going to provide mental health services?

    Free and low cost services are incredibly overburdened already.

    Real professional help is what people really need. Everything else are just excuses to avoid providing real support or guaranteeing an income that allows for accessing mental health services.
