Hoffnungen aber Skeptisch oder wie soll ich diesen blinden Glauben ansehen und dessen anhaltende Aktualität?
»Schweizer Banken setzen vermehrt auf Kryptowährungen:
Vor allem bei Staatsinstituten steigt das Interesse. Wegen der technischen Hürden greifen Banken allerdings oft auf Drittanbieter zurück.«
It’s nauseating that the hyperscalers are crankin’ the carbon to inflate the AI bubble like there’s no tomorrow (which there won’t be, for my children, if we don’t cut back) but hey, don’t forget that Bitcoin is still in the running for the single most dangerous-to-the-planet use of computers.

I wish the #Odysee sync was faster, but it is what it is eh…
I just got a notification from @ordinarygamers from my discord server I setup (it’s kind of a mess ngl) and I normally watch his content on Odysee, just wish it was faster although I believe it takes time as per API requests. Takes time to upload to the LBRY network I believe… @lemmy#syncthing#videohosting#Cryptocurrency#lbry#BlockChain#YouTube
In the beginning, the computer was invented. It had many uses, and people saw that it was good, and much money was made.
Then, the Internet was invented. It, too, had many uses, and people saw that it was good, and much money was made.
Seeing this, the techbros concluded that people will see any new technology as good, and that much money will be made, and so they invented #cryptocurrency, and said that it had many uses and was good.
Disgraced former billionaire and FTX CEO Sam Bankman-Fried has been sentenced to 25 years in prison for fraud. Decrypt looks at how many years he might actually serve in prison.
Crypto Scammer Sam Bankman-Fried Gets 25 Year Prison Sentence
One federal probation officer recommend Bankman-Fried spend 100 years behind bars, and he was eventually awarded a 25 year prison sentence for his stealing from his crypto customers.
#Sam#Bankman-#Fried, once the CEO of #FTX and a billionaire wunderkind of the #cryptocurrency world, will be sentenced to prison time on Thursday in New York City.
Should the judge in his case impose the harshest penalty allowed, the 32-year-old would face more than 100 years and die an incarcerated man, a possibility his lawyer has called “grotesque.”
In advance of the hearing, lawyers for the US Department of Justice and for Bankman-Fried have engaged in bitter back-and-forth over how long of a prison sentence would be appropriate.
His lawyers have argued for a minimal sentence of just six years.
Prosecutors are advocating for 40-50 years for his “unmatched greed and hubris” in perpetrating the🔸 $8bn (£6.3bn) fraud.🔸
@Zenek73@randymarsh@bfaliszek no ja staram się od krypto trzymać z daleka i z jednej strony trochę czuję, że na tym tracę, ale z drugiej taki rollercoaster to nie dla mnie 😉
@to3k Mam kolegę, który parę lat temu wlał w to kilka tysięcy PLN i dzisiaj jest wesoły...😅 Był wesoły nawet pół roku temu... Ale bądźmy szczerzy, obecnie to jest zwykły hazard...😂 @Zenek73@randymarsh@bfaliszek
The US government has suspended its effort to survey #cryptocurrency#mining operations over their ballooning energy use following a lawsuit from an industry that has been accused by environmental groups of fueling the climate crisis.
A federal judge in Texas has granted a temporary order #blocking the new requirements that would ascertain the energy use of the crypto miners, stating that the industry had shown it would suffer “#irreparable#injury” if it was made to comply.
“In the US, where nearly four in 10 of all #bitcoin are now mined, up to 50m tons of carbon dioxide is released each year due to the #mining operations, according to RMI, a clean energy thinktank.” 🤯
