I’m sorry they put tarrifs on uninhabited islands lol

Yep. It’s unethical but nonetheless makes the coin actually have tangible holdings, because it’s actually impacting the real world.

That’s probably a better way to put it yeah.

And as fucked as it is, it is a fact that this does hold value and is backed by it.

It’s just a pretty shit thing to be backed by ethically.

But nonetheless, there is value in bitcoin, it’s just best we don’t encourage further investment in such a thing.

Bitcoin is backed by the price of coal.

For all intents and purposes, bitcoin is effectively minted coal.

So who is doing the deporting? Why aren’t we constantly naming names of who is doing the deporting here?

Which agency? What group? Who?

If we keep the offenders who are violating orders anonymous, then they can easier get away with shit.

If you just wrote “U.S. immigration authorities” you are a bad journalist. Get very fucking specific please.

Which authorities, of what agency, in what city

Simple: the earth produces a fuck tonne less food for like half the year, requiring some kind of strategy to handle the fact you have lots of food half the time and like no food the other half.

We took the “stash it in a special spot” approach.

But how do we stop other us’s from stealing our stashes?

Strength in numbers, ape strong together. We form villages.

As we grow, we need leadership, mechanisms to keep track of each other, protect each other, and rules with how to fairly treat bad actors.

Laws, democracy, judicial systems come into play.

Oh shit, other village has cool shit. They want our cool shit. Trade? Trade! Commerce comes into play.

How do we keep track of people that are reliable to trade with and can be trusted across Trade networks?

Credit. Village A vouches on behalf of Trader, they have Credability, you can trust them.

Many villages create a unified system to describe this trust in a metric…

Thus: credit score.

In other words you have a credit score because of the way the earth makes food (that is to say, about half the time)
