   blackrock being all in for crypto is something to pay attention to.
   
   It feels like they see it as a hedge against the USD puking.

     @IAMAL_PHARIUS diversifying in a financial sense is old language, fwiw.

     @vic @IAMAL_PHARIUS The question to ask yourself is: "ultimately, what is a currency?"

     @sickburnbro @IAMAL_PHARIUS It's any symbolic thing you can convince some retard to believe is valuable while you trade it to him for his stuff that is actually valuable.

     @vic @IAMAL_PHARIUS you wouldn't have it to trade with unless you also buy into the value as well though.

     @vic @ForbiddenDreamer @IAMAL_PHARIUS again the whole point of a currency is so that you don't have to throw in a chicken to a barter because you're out of eggs.

     @ForbiddenDreamer @IAMAL_PHARIUS @sickburnbro Then we are bartering and nature is healing (or so we tell ourselves to cope with being in a lawless, warlord-infested wasteland)

     @vic @ForbiddenDreamer @IAMAL_PHARIUS the point is that it is a non-perishable, easily divisible store of value.
     
     This is traditionally why gold was used.
