Blockchain is slow.
The way to make fast transactions is to NOT use blockchain tech.
I know people have been working on making a blockchain that isn't so inefficient, but I haven't heard of any successes, really.
I wasn't gonna argue about fundamentals, but looks like you haven't even actually done any transactions period except what you've read or "heard" from your "expert" friends
I've done transactions on certain chains where it was cheap and virtually instantaneous
you shouldn't really say anything about this unless youve actually experimented yourself ...I really don't care what you retort with in terms of speed at this point because Ive seen it with my own eyes while now I know you havent at all
But you also said you literally don't care about whether or not it is worthless as long as the price goes up.
And, again, the "worth" of the crypto is disconnected from "are NFTs useful to solve this problem".
ya ,I actually don't care as long as the price goes up, doesn't matter whether it's crypto , stocks , collectibles, etc ...
to your second point , your discussion of NFTs then became just a discussion about blockchain in general and its limitations (eg you pointed it's slow) ...this debate has been going on forever here and elsewhere ...to which I said, just stop . what's the point ?
either
1) you just like telling the tech and applications are garbage and get a kick out of it (fine, whatever makes you happy)
2) you're trying to "save" people from losing their money but I say waste of time...real proponents of the tech have their minds set already
Right.
It looked like you were paranoid that I was somehow making that argument and so jumped in with an irrelevant argument about Bitcoin.
Even weirder, you then undercut the argument by claiming that you don't care if it is useless as long as the number goes up.
If you were worried about what discussing when and why blockchain might be useful was secretly a trojan horse argument about why no one should be investing money in blockchain, then jumping in by saying that you don't care about whether or not it works, because this related thing that uses the technology still has people trading it for money kind of defeats the "don't talk about how it doesn't work for this other use case".
I mean, this just looks like you are somehow worried about your investments or something, which is weird, because "NFTs are a bad solution to art ownership verification" should have no fucking impact on that. It makes you look like you are protesting way too much.
lol, not worried at all, bro, and I don't need shill it because nobody here can realistically prop up the market anyway...but I am saying is this ...hey, you got some money you wanna have fun with ? get into the space, because looks like it's gonna have a fun time in the next couple of years based on the reasons I've outlined ...a great reward to risk ratio in my view...can use the reward for some nice "hobbying" (why we are on this site) or wherever
still can't stomach the volatility? ok , not everyone can ...can't buy based on lack of fundamentals and think it's just based on psychology? I'd counter, im sure anybody here wouldn't care if they were able to snatch up a collectible (even if they don't care about it personally) at a cheap price because they know they could sell it a lot higher since someone is willing to pay for it (sports cards, original iPhone, some baseball player's historical home run ball etc)
so my question to you is..again, genuinely curious why you argue against it?
do you genuinely believe you're gonna convince the proponent of blockchain otherwise ? I say no, so you're wasting time, but if you think otherwise, then we can agree to disagree here
you get a kick out of it ? ok, that makes sense... whatever floats your boat
you have a short position in the space in one capacity or another ? this is to counter your point about me afraid of my money in the space , lol...this can't be the reason, right ? because I think we can agree here nobody here can impact the market anyway
