I've gone from not giving a shit about crypto to being repulsed by it because of comments like this. Using smilies to convey the benefits of using shitcoins to skirt around child labour laws? Employment laws? And proper accounting/taxation? Thanks but not interested.



> Using smilies

Is the problem the form, or the message?

> And proper accounting/taxation?

Interesting, here's yet another person shoving words in my mouth!

Nowhere in the above or anywhere else did I even suggest people shouldn't pay the taxes they owe if they make capital gains.

And FWIW, taxes are a very small problem in the grand scheme of things: my core argument is about reducing friction, which may allow a missing market, even for companies that are not at the scale of Microsoft and can't mint a gamepass.
