True. Also, you can always criticize your friends right back.
dubswithus··on Coinbase is reportedly selling geolocation data to ICE
It's not really political at all. The government is going to get the data one way or another. Or shut down Coinbase and be done with it. It's the survival instinct of a company playing a very dangerous game.

Have you considered that retail wants to take risks?

Does that help with humidity? With a high dew point you're sweating even at low temperatures and it's not even helping to cool you off.

NL? I have heard this is coming a problem there.

Now talk shit about A16Z and Multicoin Capital? It's easy to pick losers. The same with startup funds and startups.

In 2017 there were a lot of projects that tried to latch onto Buterin's star in some way to raise money for their ICO or pump the price of their token.

How many podcasts also have their own cryptocurrency? It speaks to promotion vs. dialogue and discussion.

> There needs to be more POSITIVITY and COLLABORATION helping each other, rather than all this competition and shitting on each other.

Not when there are fundamental disagreements.
