Dailyight Computer came out of nowhere recently, to much fanfare from the tech community: https://daylightcomputer.com/

I am a little skeptical for one reason alone. I've listened to a few interviews with the founder, and I am getting a lot of the painkiller-induced, crypto-bro, everything-sucks-let-me-fix-it narrative, which I don't think I enjoy.

Daylight is like what the reMarakable would have looked like, if it were funded solely on Bitcoin.

I když Bitcoinu fandím, nemožnost revertovat transakce je něco, co bude bránit rozšíření. Na jednu stranu je fajn, že neexistuje žádná banka a vše se odehrává jen s vaší elektronickou peněženkou. Na stranu druhou záchranný kruh v podobě možnosti vrátit peníze na účet se hodí, nejen kvůli podvodům, ale i kvůli lidským chybám, které se dějí i dnes s fiatem. #Bitcoin nic takového nemá.

@michal @kravemir Toto srovnání je taky celkem mimo. Banky nezaměstnávají miliony lidí, aby realizovali transakce, na to stačí "pár" ajťáků. Lidi v bance zaměstnávají hlavně hypotéky, podnikatelské úvěry, investice, pojištění... S tímhle BTC nijak nepomůže.

@miroslavbucek @michal Fixní zásoba BTC není výhoda, ale naopak obrovský problém. Správná měna má zajistit stálost cen a na to je potřeba, aby peněžní zásoba rostla s výkonem ekonomiky. V případě fixní peněžní zásoby a růstu ekonomiky bychom měli divokou deflaci, která je stejně špatná jako divoká inflace. Proto BTC nikdy nebude primární měnou a bude to jen vedlejší investiční/spekulativní aktivum.

So I took a random 100W solar panel I have laying around, plugged it into one of those Chinesium 120V grid tie inverters that you can just plug into the wall, and it sits in my yard and it actually makes me 20¢ per day.

@kwf can I ask, what are you using to mine?

Aktuell laufen wieder Spamwellen durchs Land. Eine bot einen angeblichen Schweizer #Bitcoin-ETF an, mit zuverlässiger Firma und offizieller Zulassung dahinter. Das wäre doch das ideale Investment für klamme Kassen!

Doch schon nach wenigen Klicks war klar: Da stimmt ganz vieles nicht.

Ich habe mir das für euch angeschaut und möchte euch an meiner "Schatzsuche" im Internet teilhaben lassen. Viel Spass und Unterhaltung!

Herausgekommen ist auch eine Checkliste mit 12 einfachen Regeln, wie man potenziell betrügerische Webseiten erkennen kann.

Aber merke: Die Betrüger werden versuchen, einige dieser Regeln beim nächsten Mal besser zu beachten. Nur weil einige wenige Informationen plausibel klingen, heisst das nicht, dass alles vertrauenswürdig ist!

Im Beitrag gibt es übrigens auch ein paar Tipps, mit welchen Tools man den Betrügern in die Karten schauen kann.

Ach ja: Falls ihr euch wundert, wieso der Einstiegspreis 250€ ist.

In der Schweiz liegt die Grenze der Geringfügigkeit bei 300 Franken. Darüber reicht eine einfache Meldung an die Polizei und die müssen sich von Amtes wegen dem annehmen. Darunter müsst ihr selbst Strafantrag stellen, was aufwändiger ist.

Und die Betrüger hoffen darauf, dass ihr euch so schämt, dass ihr niemandem etwas erzählt, schon gar nicht der Polizei.

Stay safe!

@AmericanScream

They are still markets. The black market is a market, too. And it is highly opaque and you get ripped off. But it is a market.

These schemes work, because people think they are smarter than the opponent.
And their profits tell them, they really are.

Until they get to someone, who is smarter than them.

The whole way how fraud works. People think, the other was too stupid to realize, there is a profit to get.

For some, it is a learning process.
For others a lifestyle.

Warum ich #BitCoin im Podcast „Blume & Ince“ kritisierte, hier in der @tagesschau :

„Bitcoin wird meist in riesigen "Mining-Farmen" in Ländern mit niedrigen Strompreisen hergestellt. Dort rechnen zahlreiche Computer rund um die Uhr, um die nächste Rechenaufgabe zu lösen. Das "Schürfen" ist ein kostspieliges & energieintensives Unterfangen, das Ressourcen und Umwelt belastet. Aufgrund hoher Strompreise haben private "Miner" mittlerweile kaum noch eine Chance…“ #Klimakrise https://www.tagesschau.de/wirtschaft/finanzen/kryptowaehrungen-bitcoin-halving-100.html

@schizanon can't call it a "crypto scam" unless it originated from the Crypto region of France.

e37fa6726260cc23575f1fc225cad37124dc7d0599c01f79831cb97bd6264125,

Each one of my #LimitedEdition #Handmade #Human illustrated #Bitcoin #GreetingCard sets will be numbered with a nostr note ID and stamped with my seal.
Note IDs are long, but inmutable, searchable, & recorded #forever in the nostr protocol, so the note ID will be included on the box (for a set), or in a separate tag inside the card (for individual cards).
I will be limiting sets to 21 sets of 12 cards.
Hence the need to number and record them for posterity in #Nostr.
I will also limit individual cards, but I'm unsure to how many.

Why limited edition:

Because they do take time to make. I do invest energy, time, love, creativity in making them. I also want to remain creative. Limiting the output will force me to innovate and continue designing different ones, keeping me challenged and getting my brain juices flowing.

Where will they be available?

Plebeian.market when I open my stall. I will have information about my cards on my website as well, but primarily for informative purposes.
isabelsydow.art

Will you accept Fiat?

I don't think so. The truth? It will depend on your constraints & the situation. I will work with you, but I honestly am trying to contribute to the bringing of a Bitcoin #economy & I don't want us to perpetuate the eternal #violence of #fiat.

Bitcoin price nears $73,000 in fresh record high

Meanwhile, it burns up vast amounts of power and uses a lot of water. Both scarcities. And this is not only allowed, but also encouraged. It is a speculative instrument only and of no value to man nor beast. The future is being sold of cheaply by the speculators, the ‘miners' and governments around the world.

@Wen during the in (2012), bitcoins and more generally crypto currencies, have been useful to the population.

Over night and without notice ATMs closed down, bank accounts were frozen and I remember that experienced its first significant peak in currency value because Cypriots started buying them through bank foreign accounts.

Sometimes the system fails and that might be one of the arguments in favour of cryptos.

volkris,

@Wen the story of Bitcoin burning vast amounts of power is false, though, based on a misrepresentation of how Bitcoin works.

We really need to stop promoting that narrative.

Yes, it gets clicks for websites, but it’s not actually true.

Bitcoin can operate on a car battery and solar power. THAT’s what Bitcoin burns.

Other people trade extra power for Bitcoin because it’s proven so valuable to them, but that’s not Bitcoin’s fault.

It’s like blaming art for the amount someone might pay for a Picasso.
