ThailandRyan Posted March 20, 2022 Share Posted March 20, 2022 Always going to be haters for a new asset class. It has been around for many years now and some cryptos have come and gone while the top players in the field are still in play and unlike some folks do not believe they do have use.

owl sees all Posted March 20, 2022 Share Posted March 20, 2022 When the Petro-dollar goes belly-up, anyone with Bitcoin or other cryptoes will be sitting pretty. I like the investments in land and those NFTs too. I'm seriously looking at buying some land in the metaverse. There is a plot of about three hectares going for 100k Baht (in Ethereum) a hectare, near Pugsville. Seems like a lot of dosh, but anyone wishing to cross the land - or even set foot on it - has to pay a toll. And if there is a battle there, I'll tenfold my money, through rent alone. Of course any weapons will have to be rented; guess who from? There is also a rowing boat for sale in the Spoegosso Sea. Anyone wishing to get to Flop Island, has to either swim across, or pay to get ferried across. So it will be a steady income stream. I have about 30 NFTs at the present time. They have authentication and are registered. I plan to sell them off when the time is right. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

spidermike007 Posted March 20, 2022 Share Posted March 20, 2022 (edited) This guy is buried so deep in a small box of convention and the financial industry, it would be difficult for him to conceive of any sort of alternative to his sacred cow. Former head of the SEC. About as much credibility as saying you were the former head of the FDA or the Stasi. Multiple alternatives are desperately needed to curb the extreme recklessness of the Fed, the Treasury, the WTO, the IMF, and similar agencies.

I was programming in the early 80’s, 19 kb of memory, and I could write the whole Payroll program for a company with 1000+ employees. The ‘testing’ department would throw it back at me to re-write if there was greater than 4 second wait for the end user ( between input or output ). I have a new laptop with 4 GB of RAM that takes 2 minutes to boot up and regularly ‘hangs’ midway through a process. Progress? But I do get to view some pretty graphics and pictures whilst I’m waiting. What's the OS? The Linux MX on my laptop and desktop takes 20-30 seconds, can't recall it ever hanging up on me. I forget who coined the term fatware, but most of us know which OS is being referred to. Another Bill Gates quote: "Your most unhappy customers are your greatest source of learning" I'd say Microsoft must be very knowledgeable by now.

owl sees all Posted March 20, 2022 Share Posted March 20, 2022 As far as searching in the metaverse is concerned; 'megaseach' is the way to go. Blockchain will not only be the safeguard of meteverse transactions, but the integrity of the metaverse is essential if people - real people like you and me - are to safeguard their acquisitions. For instance: it would not be possible to go unauthorised onto land in the continent of Fluffz without permission. If a metaverse browser (real person) wants to pass through a country he/she would need a password to do so. this requires a small fee. We are only talking a tiny fee, but with a million users a day wishing to venture forth, it can be seen where the money is. Most of the people rubbishing the metaverse have no cryptoes and do not see their value. As far as NFTs are concerned, they will ultimately be used as symbols for groups, gangs and war. That is in the metaverse of course. In real life they will find their way into art galleries and exhibitions. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hahah, nope I have no wish for collapse..you extrapolate a bit much and bit wide..nor does being in the crypto sphere make me an egoist ? "All X are Y" black-and-white broad stroke thinking.

Actually, one need not work for the govt to recognize reality. Folks who complain about govt, or who parrot the line (as a joke), "I'm from the govt and here to help", are people who hold delusions of grandeur over their own "skills and accomplishments". Curious about things such as the internet, GPS, and a host of other breakthrough tech, I used to look into the genesis of these inventions. A good many came from government programs and research. I realized not all people with intellect and talents are profit motivated. Some seek knowledge for the sake of knowledge, but all of us 'private sector capitalists' benefit from their work. Now I'm sure some folks who made a few thousand speculating in crypto fancy they have added more value to the human condition as 'Day Trading Geniuses' than the anonymous 'govt' types who developed many critical technologies, but the opinions of those day trading geniuses are pure delusion. The fellow you quoted seems to think it's 'special' that an anonymous group conjured a 21st Century Ponzi Scheme from thin air (and has been copied now by almost 20,000 other crypto coin conjurers hoping to make hay while the scam shines), and because it has yet to run its course and folks who cannot actually begin to understand the thing have chased its 'value' to 41600, and that such a game equates to GPS, but that is simply silly. Some of these delusional types actually think crypto will replace banks (a belief which evidences total ignorance about things like credit analysis or the velocity of money). Oh, and crypto fanciers also seem to overlook that they have embraced the most energy wasteful means of exchange ever conjured by humanity. The value of the energy crypto has burned exceeds the total value of all cryptos in existence....that is so woefully inefficient (and is a major contributor to higher prices all of us are now paying at the pump or to heat/cool our homes, or even fly to Thailand....hey, but what a small price to pay for someone to be able to boast to his mates about how skilled he is at trading!). In addition to critical cutting edge research, there are functions govts perform that all of us take for granted, forgetting how critical these functions are and how there is zero incentive for the private sector to do those jobs. Think of food or drug testing, among other things. Sure, govt entities miss the occasional salmonella or other malady in food, or let thalidomide make it to market occasionally, but for the most part the work those anonymous folks do---for which private sector capitalists have no incentive---save countless lives. Okay, it doesn't create Day trading Geniuses who can boast of their trading prowess (aka, LUCK), but thinking people will accept it has far greater value.

There is a chance for all of us to buy some land. assets, equipment etc. It does take some understanding, but once the 'penny drops people will see the Metaverse future. For those that get in early there are absolute fortunes to be made. Not that 'fortunes' is that important to many. Imagine you have bought some land in the Metaverse, and the particular bit of land is the gateway to fun and games. Also battles and love! Anyone wishing to pass through your. land HAS to pay a small fee. Without paying the fee, there is no right-of-way. The fee is in a crypto, and if converted, might be as little as 1 baht (say), but if your area become popular, there could be a million people crossing your land every day. Look at it as an investment that could be sold, if another sees the potential. The Metaverse is here and now. Best not to be left behind.
