So everyone reading this forum should just believe that a non scalable, irreversible (0 consumer protection), very-easy-to steal, ridiculously volatile, bullshit distributed, china megamines powered pyramid scheme currency is gonna suddenly replace every fiat currency, central bank, need for monetary policy etc?


You bitcoiners don't know how the world works have some wild imagination, I gotta give you that.

Oh well....

Here's to the crazy ones. The misfits. The rebels. The troublemakers. The round pegs in the square holes. The ones who see things differently. They're not fond of rules. And they have no respect for the status quo. You can quote them, disagree with them, glorify or vilify them. About the only thing you can't do is ignore them. Because they change things. They push the human race forward. And while some may see them as the crazy ones, we see genius. Because the people who are crazy enough to think they can change the world, are the ones who do.

Yeah, but some dreams can be reasonable, some of them are plain delusions.

you are literally quoting a commercial statement from a commercial the was made to sell iwhatnots ... from a multi billion dollar company ... and im not saying they make bad shit ... their shit is good ... but that statement has NOTHING to do with actual tech innovation ... and even less to do with any kind of rebel genius mindset ... and was NOT made at a time when innovation was the primary function of apple ...

Ideas are dangerous things in the hands of children. If you're going to take that ad for being anything more than empty words pretending to mean something, then the message is quite nietzschean and beyond elitist. Now, Nietzsche was no fascist, he even had a correspondence with Wagner where he denied the concept of an übervolk, but in light of wagnerism and fascism this doesn't sit well with me.
