Damn... maybe crypto/blockchain isn't so bad (beehaw.org)

I'm going to keep this short but I just fell down the rabbithole of crypto again and maybe it isn't as bad as I thought. Many of their ideas are very similar to the fediverse's. The idea of decentralized finance using a stablecoin sounds awesome to me. (though i'd much prefer to live in a world where money isn't needed) Maybe the technology is actually good but the techbros and scammers ruin it with their false promises and complicated words. Hopefully, in a few years after the rest of those scammers have moved on to scamming with AI this tech could be truly used for meaningful purposes.

You sound like you wouldn't like rust.

The programming language? I like it just fine, I prefer Go but Rust is great too.
