Fuelled by hype and hysteria, the market in bitcoin and other cryptocurrencies went from an obscure niche to a $3tn industry. Then the house of cards collapsed
Alright fine, you win. I obviously can’t win with some one who thinks all modes of trade are ponzi schemes.
You’re right, I didn’t mean commodity, I meant ownership, thanks for pointing that out.
What services are offered? Please give me examples, because the kinds of services I have seen advertised are all specifically only services because the crypto market exists in the first place, self servicing. Like acting as a 1 to 1 currency with stable coins, that still fail. Or coins that give you some kind of game asset that wouldn’t existed if the system wasn’t there in the first place. And honestly give me examples, I asked for a book or something to reference and it was totally ignored. I want to actually engage you on this, I don’t really give a shit if I’m wrong. I don’t have any crypto, I was interested in it and I read white papers for bitcoin and eth back in the day, and did some purchases and was utterly unconvinced, but please I insist actually give me a reference for me to address.
Okay, so VeChain as I understand it is mostly just a distributed ledger with a currency attached to it. Honestly I think dlt’s and blockchain are interesting tech, they aren’t inherent to cryptocurrency and could be applied to other functions though like new digital medical records for instance. Why is there a currency even attached to vechain other than to commodify it? It could just be a digital ledger.
XRP literally even says they function basically as SWIFT but ripple the company, it’s not XRP is the one that does it, XRP is just their vbucks they use as the middle man. It’s basically ETH but the ripple protocol manages the servers that host DLTs rather than trusted stake holders, the service is only fast because of the fees one company makes on transactions. It’s basically visa, but with crypto access. The only reason this service exists is as a function of cryptocurrency… like I mentioned.
Amp and Flexa only exist if you’re trying to buy things with multiple currencies all at once. You understand what my problem is right?
All of these services only exist to justify cryptocurrency’s existence. WHY DOES CRYPTOCURRENCY NEED TO EXIST IN THE FIRST PLACE?!
XRP just fills the gap of SWIFT because SWIFT doesn’t recognize the validity of cryptocurrency, there is no reason that implementation could not be added, ripple just didn’t need international consent.
VeChain’s function could be replicated without a financial aspect as the asset of vechain isn’t even the coin, it’s a ledger. It doesn’t require currency, the currency just exists to make an excuse for the creators of vechain to host the service rather than have it be self hosted. The crypto-currency part just seems like a way to commodify it into a rent service when it could just be a free protocol. Like ssh. I just don’t see the financial aspects of cryptocurrency being valuable.
Alright man, fine, I don’t know how to convince you, whom I assume is a communist, that having a private entity maintain transactions is the dumbest fucking idea in the world. You do you I guess. Like Marx 95. Remedial Communism shit.

“Why would a marxist leninist think the state should control currency” said the smart man.
