I've been having a blast recently trolling a bunch of these #bitcoin #cryptocurrency nuts on another website ceo.ca. I have officially coined the words bittrash, farmville and cryptoveggies all around the idea that the people, if you can call them that, that play games on Facebook like Farmville are all cut from the same cloth as the Bitcoin guys. They love the idea of this digital realm where they plant a row of carrots in Farmville and wait a certain amount of time until they can 'harvest' their veggies. I'm not joking when I say that they plant and harvest these fake veggies to turn around and sell them for real money to other jack@ss losers who actually will spend their real life money for these fake veggies to feed their fake avatar selves. I mean you can find games where you take care of virtual pets and are pushed products to buy these fake pets using real money via a credit card. You can even buy a rubber women to stick your dingaling into....ewww. WTH is happening to humanity??!!
I mean, this is going way too far.
I am what is commonly known as a goldbug meaning I believe in the real life, intrinsic value of precious metals above ALL other fiat currencies including bittrash cryptoveggies. I refuse to be distracted by the hype (aka. greed) that is going around the world today in the bittrash cryptocurrency space.
Now I'm sure many of you are reading this thinking that I must be an old, out of touch with technology guy but I'm quite the contrary. I'm a middle-aged dude who has history on his side when it comes to the argument about whether or not cryptotrash should be considered real money like gold or silver or even worse, whether cryptotrash is taking the place finally for gold and silver.
The answer to that is a resounding no.
Now if you're 'speculating' in the crypto space..more power to you. But please whatever you do stop comparing cryptoshit to gold and silver and just follow your friends off the cliff.
Just a quick prediction in writing. I do see in our near future a gold backed cryptocurrency that might actually work but the key there is to acknowledge the the cryptotrash is NOT replacing gold and silver but its replacing the paper fiat known as the ALMIGHTY DOLLAR.
I'd be curious to hear all your opinions, agree or disagree.
