"False Narrative #2: Bitcoin Adoption in Latin America
Latin America is a region that has been long affected by weak, corrupt governments that tend to impose capital controls, currency devaluation, and other hardships on their citizens.
Over these past few weeks, you may have read misleading articles or headlines about how Latin America is rapidly adopting Bitcoin.
With a total of 20 countries in Latin America, only 1 of them has voted on using Bitcoin as a legal tender. Nayib Bukele, El Salvador’s dictator, only accepted Bitcoin under the condition that every citizen used “Strike”.So technically, they aren’t even using Bitcoin. The people of El-Salvador are using Strike Token. Too poor to ever use real Bitcoin because getting on-chain is too expensive. Hopefully, Strike or the El Salvador government doesn’t decide to confiscate these Strike Tokens from the people in the future."
- "The live StrikeCoin price today is $0.009408 USD with a 24-hour trading volume of $185,489 USD"
https://coinmarketca…grafician - Volume on 24 June was $1.02 then jumped $200k in 10 days lolgrafician

- oh and that bitcoin atm takes 1.5% fee

- maybe you should educate yourself on the economy of el salvador first: https://www.youtube.…zarkonite
- nah bro, I'm good, el salvador as a country didn't adopt bitcoin, just its dictator el presidente trying to print some quick cash by the way of tethergrafician
- "countries adopting bitcoin" LOL fuckoffgrafician
- also the fact that you guys don't live in a country who had both a dictator and huge inflation speaks volumes about your knowledgegrafician
- your past with dictatorships and poor economies or failed states doesn't make you an expert neither btw. just a bit more anxious maybe.uan
- @uan uhm but it does :) the fact that many on QBN have no clue about many issues but they still comment is so dumbgrafician
- you're in Switzerland uan? case on point LOLgrafician
- yeah, but my family immigrated here because of a dictatorship. so I know better than you can imagine what I am talking about.uan
- also I would say stunning lots of qbn ppl have migration backgrounds (except for the 'new' US users who think they are the planet :-).uan
- btw, the dictatorship was not a communist one, but a neo-liberal one. the ruling by force come in all colors.uan
- so are we discussing shades of authoritarianism or the fact that bitcoin adoption in Latin America is bullshit?grafician
- I'm trying to get you to think about why do care so much. not your country, not you money, so what's up with your attempts to bash this new technology?uan
- no, you're right, we should all stand down, let the others get scammed

- I really don't understand China's position on this matter.utopian
- ^they can't control their currency with crypto and they don't want capital to exit the mainland so bye cryptografician
- China is getting pretty scary with its crackdowns. Glad I don't have a lot of money invested in companies there.formed

"DeFi bug accidentally gives $90 million to users, founder begs them to return it"
"- About $90 million has mistakenly gone out to users of Compound, a popular decentralized-finance staking protocol, and the founder is begging users to voluntarily return the tokens.
“- Keep 10% as a white-hat. Otherwise, it’s being reported as income to the IRS, and most of you are doxxed,” Robert Leshner, founder of Compound Labs, tweeted late Thursday."

"The Anarchists" is HBO's chaotic examination of an attempted crypto-bro utopia in Acapulco
This documentary series about a failed anarchy experiment is an undisciplined stumble through a wild wild countrySchramke follows a subset of self-proclaimed anarchists who answered Berwick's call beckoning them to Acapulco, Mexico, and Anarchapulco, a "freedom conference" he founded in 2015. Conceptualized as a retreat designed to bring the anarchists' community together and explore the philosophy's practice in the real world, it quickly ended up becoming a cryptocurrency sales-a-thon abuzz with catchphrases like, "the liberty space."

Energy consumption chart comparison between PoW coins
- Confused... is that figure per coin? If so, BTC is by far the most efficientProjectile
- How? It does 10 transactions tops, at huge mining expenses. It's the most wasteful "currency" in the history of currenciesgrafician
- also from what I understand halving is increasing the mining energy costs every 4 years, to a point where you'll need the entire energy output of the planet?grafician

This was another factor in the crash and will continue to be:
"Tether reaches new lows in quest to avoid being audited"
https://coingeek.com/tether-reac…
So they have only 3% cash reserves and the rest is BS.
p.s. btw exchanging coin for tether (but not fiat) believing you will not pay taxes on it it's wrong, you will pay taxes as most countries tax exchanges between cryptos too, not only sales to fiat - seen today that many retailers if not all that deal with crypto have no clue or don't want to know about taxes and will get hit hard paying taxes on any gains

- bruh, do you work?GuyFawkes
- yeah I'm in fintechs now, exposed to the markets dailygrafician
- Not sure I see "pretty much over". Look at where we are compared to even December. Just because there was a blow off top doesn't mean it's over.mandomafioso
- the situation is very much changed since December, the triggers then are not in any way still up today, there's nothing driving any bullish sentimentgrafician
- look up the twitter, there's not a week without a scam in crypto exposed, Binance is in hot waters, tether is laying low, coinbase stock and hashrate droppinggrafician
- except nothing like NFTs, not in concept, implementation or function, or even how they're traded or valuedmonospaced
- oh, and like NFTs, not over eithermonospaced
- *unlikemonospaced
- @mono uhm, this post was about VOLUME and in both NFTs and crypto it's waaaay DOWNgrafician
- The volume of tether is like $40B down from over $100B last week or so.
BTC volume is $24B down from $60B or moregrafician - Trading volume? Then it’s even less like NFT than I thought. You’re cute though. Especially when you try to mansplain what we already know, and be wrong about imonospaced
- You’re really new to the concept of capitalism so I’ll give you a pass and talk to you like the naive child you are. Was escaping communism rough?monospaced
- LOL what the fuck are you talking about mono?!grafician
- I posted ONE PICTURE and you messed up the interpretation, not to mention all the comments...take it easy buddy, drink some watergrafician
- better yet, stay the fuck out my posts, you're becoming a full blown moron lately with your hateful comments without no scent of reason in themgrafician
- no I didn't, and no I'm notmonospaced
- I'm saying it's not over and the comparison is ridiculous. That's neither moronic nor hateful.monospaced
- so I'll continue to comment anywhere I want, just like everyone, and YOU will kindly ignore me because that's actually what you wantmonospaced
- Maybe take the downvotes as a hint to how your posts are received before making me some nonsensical scapegoat. I didn't even downvote you, ffs.monospaced
- If that isn't a scent of reason, then my scentses are failing memonospaced
- Just because my posts are downvoted doesn't mean they're not right lol
Also next time you comment, better have something to saygrafician - I posted in the NFTs thread some posts in which again the volume is down so yeah, in both cases NFTs and cryptos at large are quiet, so exactly what I said <grafician
