Guys, I have a genius idea: How about we make money, but every single time we spend/receive money, it gets harder to process that transaction!
I don’t know much about bitcoins, but isn’t there some enormously crazy big transaction commission? At the level that makes it unusable for real merchandise trading?
Only for transactions on the main (L1) blockchain. Small transactions are usually done on a secondary (L2) blockchain so they’re fast and cheap, and then periodically synced back to the L1 chain in one big transaction.
Yeah… It’s kinda the entire problem with Bitcoin as a concept. It’s the bastard child of a commodity and currency, featuring the worst aspects of both its parents.
It’s a commodity with no inherent value, and a currency with no guaranteeing partner or oversight. Tbh the only real values it can express are all highly detrimental towards society at large.
Sure it sucks as a currency, but it if you’re the only town doing it then it might work okay as a tourist attraction to draw in any remaining wealthy bitcoin enthusiasts.
It was a weird vibe in the village. Either bitcoin people, who tended to be middle upper class, or surfers.
I dont think its that big, but bitcoin is also very slow, which wont help.
And slow. And that commission as I heard is linked to the speed. Expensive and fast, or not very expensive but very slow…
Yeah, and meanwhile visa are doing god knows how many million transactions per second.
This place screams libertarian paradise
Yep, looks like it.
Is this “bitcoin” in the room with us now?
