If blockchain allows this, how is it not worse than the current system? This is a massive portion of all crypto transactions https://x.com/molly0xfff/status/1915148232574804193?s=46

This feels like a smart approach. Would like to get there one day.

A recurring question is whether speculation & other motivators can co-exist - in the same purchase, same product ux, etc. I think they can! One dumb example that came to mind: Phish posters, specifically Jim Pollock prints. Fans arrive early to shows to buy these prints & go through the annoying experience of being at a Phish show w/ a poster tube. Most people buying these prints do so out of fandom & show them off in their homes, offices, etc. BUT, some folks end up selling them, and there's a decent secondary market for these posters. https://www.ebay.com/sch/i.html?_nkw=Jim%20Pollock%20Phish%20Poster IMO, financial gain is not a primary motivator for people buying these prints (there's much easier ways to make money!), but the opportunity for the price to appreciate may encourage more people to buy them and/or pay more for the prints, both of which grow revenue for these prints & expand the broader Phish economy.

Saw this. Stopped the owner to tell them that I agree, but loudly demanded that they put an asterisk for “Warpcast.” Before they called the police they promised to look into it.

An additionally disturbing element of this: it suggests they are not worried about voters or public opinion. Ominous level of confidence.

Meta's "integrity organization" is willing to compromise the integrity of their own platform to ensure that genocide of Palestinians continues unhindered by criticism. This is a great parallel to what US "patriots" are doing for the same reason. All laws, all morality is subservient to the genocide.

SCOOP by @ryangrim, @mazmhussain and me: Meta has been letting Israel manipulate its platform and conduct what can only be described as a massive data poisoning attack. Israel sends fraudulent takedown requests, Meta removes them, trains its AI on that, and makes Pro-Palestine speech or criticism of Israel impossible in perpetuity.

No, sorry, still seems like kind of a silly use of time and resources.
