Cryptocurrency Quotes

“Secondo il Journal Nature Climate Change, il turismo è responsabile dell’8% delle emissioni di anidride carbonica dell’economia globale. E se è vero che circa il 75% dell’inquinamento viene prodotto dai mezzi di trasporto (sia aerei che terrestri), il 21% è da ricondurre esclusivamente al consumo energetico delle strutture alberghiere. Sono cifre che fanno riflettere. Trovare alternative praticabili a un settore così poco sostenibile come il nostro non è solo auspicabile. È, a questo punto, obbligatorio.”

“Idee per innovare un sistema turistico e dell’ospitalità così tradizionale come quello italiano? Nessuna. Non c’è speranza. Ora abbiamo pure resuscitato Italia.it. Siamo al nonsense! Venti milioni di euro buttati nel 2007 per un progetto che era già obsoleto 15 anni fa. Se li avessero investiti in bitcoin ora avremmo nove trilioni di euro da destinare al settore. Il ministero del turismo crede davvero che una tecnologia creata nel ‘91 abbia ancora una qualche rilevanza nel 2022? Se si, ve la mostro in prospettiva: quando veniva pubblicato il primo sito web, Riccardo Cocciante vinceva Sanremo con “Se stiamo insieme.” Ecco, puntare su Italia.it oggi è l’equivalente di mandare Cocciante all’Eurovision al posto dei Maneskin.”

“Non credo si debba lavorare con le istituzioni, ma sabotarle. La mia visione è cryptoanarchica. Non mi fido delle istituzioni, ma mi fido del consenso crittografico e della sua trasparenza. Quando realizzeranno il loro pieno potenziale, le DAO porteranno a un processo di decentralizzazione che ridurrà/annullerà il potere delle istituzioni. “Proprio come la tecnologia di stampa ha alterato e ridotto il potere delle corporazioni medievali e la struttura del potere sociale,” scriveva Timothy May già nell’88, “così i metodi crittografici altereranno la natura delle corporazioni e dell’interferenza del governo.”Bisognerebbe creare una specie di “Progetto Mayhem” in stile Fight Club.”

“As the government of different nations, through the Central banks, are making adoption of Blockchain products difficult for the people, which in return, affects the bank's profit, it won't be long until some of these traditional institutions find a way to circumvent it and create a backdoor loop that would blow everything out of water.”

“The government wants to fool its people by doubling the minimum wage but at the same time printing more than enough money into circulation. We can't solve problems by creating more problem for generations to come which is why Bitcoin and some other decentralized finance applications powered by blockchain technology looks to be our only hope of creating a better future.”

“Sonnet of Cryptocurrency The reason people are nuts about cryptocurrency, Is that they hear the magic phrase regulation-free. But what they forget to take into account, Is that it also means the user alone bears liability. The purpose behind a centralized system, Is not exploitation but to provide trust and stability. Anything that is decentralized on the other hand, Is a breeding ground for fraud and volatility. Not every fancy innovation is gonna benefit society, Innovation without accountability is only delusion. Cryptocurrency can be a great boon to banking, If it merges with the centralized financial institution. Intoxication of tech is yet another fundamentalism. Algorithm without humanity is digital barbarism.”

“Innovation is not always liked in its early stage until it becomes a public point of discussion and interest. Bitcoin was like the Internet of the early 20s, and today we all use it. Most aspects of our lives revolve around the internet, the same way blockchain technology and other decentralized apps (DApps) will become mainstream solutions to our world in the future.”

“Incorporating cryptocurrency in the traditional centralized financial system not only speeds up transactions exponentially, but also it makes the system more user-friendly, whereas in a decentralized system cryptocurrency will only breed insecurity and chaos, due to the utter absence of liability.”

“A bubble starts when any group of stocks, in this case those associated with the excitement of the Internet, begin to rise. The updraft encourages more people to buy the stocks, which causes more TV and print coverage, which causes even more people to buy, which creates big profits for early Internet stockholders. The successful investors tell you at cocktail parties how easy it is to get rich, which causes the stocks to rise further, which pulls in larger and larger groups of investors. But the whole mechanism is a kind of Ponzi scheme where more and more credulous investors must be found to buy the stock from the earlier investors. Eventually, one runs out of greater fools.”

“According to technologist David Rosenthal, speculation on cryptocurrencies is the engine that drives Web3—that it can’t work without it. “[A] permissionless blockchain requires a cryptocurrency to function, and this cryptocurrency requires speculation to function,” he said in a talk at Stanford in early 2022.4 Basically, he’s describing a pyramid scheme: Blockchains need to give people something in exchange for volunteering computing power, and cryptocurrencies fill that role—but the system works only if other people are willing to buy them believing that they’ll be worth more in the future. Stephen Diehl, a technologist and vocal critic of Web3, floridly dismissed blockchain as “a one-trick pony whose only application is creating censorship-resistant crypto investment schemes, an invention whose negative externalities and capacity for harm vastly outweigh any possible uses.”
