Just got very lightly flamed by another user for making fun of crypto and was told that Lemmy and crypto have “the exact same advantages and disadvantages”. Now I disagree heavily there, since even if it shares some principles I’d argue that the scale of the problems change when you’re talking about a global finance system versus a social media platform filled with beans. But it did get me curious- how many of you are crypto supporters?

Crypto is and always has been a joke. It also doesn't work that much like the fediverse, which is basically a webring where the sites like to copy each other. TBH I'm looking forward to the ~~webring host~~ Lemmy instance drama and people being ~~kicked from the webring~~ defederated.
