    • With all that money why does Gary V not just retire?PhanLo
    • Gary V started on third base and acts like he hit a triple.colab
    • Wow. There's some hate. Who do you all suggest I watch then? Please no crypto pumpers.formed
    • ^ Watch literally anything except cuck fucks like Gary V.babydick
    • Eh, he's been pretty spot on. Welcome to watch others, but no interest in random 'gurus' on YouTube that got lucky.formed
    • how did we ever do contracts or event tickets before NFT's? shittiest timeline for sure. "Smart Contracts" dammit stop the ride i need to vomitjonny_quest_lives
    • Gary Vegetable ... mindblowing that anybody admires clowns like this.neverscared
    • I guess this must make Cuban an idiot, too, or anyone that's actually built massive businesses. Moving on....formed
    • not really, there are people with enough elegance and smoothnes too.. not gary vegetable though.neverscared
    • @formed mate Gary was already rich when he started. Many of these marketing "gurus" were already wealthy when they "started"grafician
    • Here's his story https://www.inc.com/…grafician
    • Here's (more or less) Cuban's story: https://www.markcuba…grafician
    • When you're a millionaire trust me nobody is interested in doing talks and promoting shit - you focus on the money not being a social media stargrafician
    • only douche bags focus on "promoting" stuff but actually themselves really, having big big egosgrafician
    • < so, no thanks, not taking financial advice from a former wine promoter or marketing "guru" not turned crypto and nfts shillgrafician
    • Then I guess Musk, Bezos, Gates, Zuckerberg are all losers, too, eh?formed
    • No one has ever argued any of them started out living in a cave. That's not the point (nor the discussion).formed
    • and yes, I am well aware of their stories. Again, not the point.formed
    • None of them were true 'rags to riches', but none are saying they were and all have built empires, more or less, as well as brands.formed

    in 10 years time we will look back and say

    A) Wow I can't believe we lost all our money on the worlds biggest Ponzi Scheme

    B) Wow I can't believe we all became multi-millionaires for no reason at all.

    • C) I can believe we used to work for pieces of paper printed by Governments that debased its value at will and backed it with guns/threat of violence.shapesalad
    • D) LOL those central bank crypto currencies never took off as no one wanted government controlled money.shapesalad
    • theres a crash to every ponzi... so there will be tons of reasons and a massive blowback. same old same old.neverscared

    • I think you miss the point, I want to work, and earn btc. Not work, earn fiat, and it instantly start losing value day by day.shapesalad
    • currently nothing stopping you from offering your services to fellow like minded crypto enthusiasts for payment.jonny_quest_lives
    • or take some of your income and fiat and pump it into an exchange i hear they give you bonuses for pumping real money in...jonny_quest_lives

    Twitter launches crypto tipping for all users

    https://cointelegraph.com/news/t…

    People can now seamlessly tip with Bitcoin using Strike – a payments application built on the Bitcoin Lightning Network that allows people to send and receive Bitcoin. Strike offers instant and free payments globally.

    Strike is available to people in El Salvador and the U.S. (excluding Hawaii and New York).

    • I've been wondering when a real use case for crypto other than speculation would take off. How many other sites will adopt something like this?yuekit
    • I saw a video a while back of a guy in S.America buying a beer with BTC via Strike and I must admit, I was impressed.
      Like a 2c fee, or something.

    • Of course ^this isn't using the actual blockchain itself for the transaction, so the novelty is pretty futile in those terms. Still, anything to fuck Visa et alNairn
    • Personally I think the EU should mandate a digital/Card replacement for Visa that runs profit-free and then let the 'Brussels-effect' spread its wings globally.Nairn
    • Too little to late lol
      @jack a jackass

      What a tool
      grafician
    • but then again we have the network replacement for Visa, it's called cashgrafician
    • < they did this because that TIPS feature was only used to tip about $6K since introduction = it was BIG FAILUREgrafician

    • Circulation is the only glorysted
    • So you don't know what the Brussels Effect is, and you're not understanding the very simple point I'm making about a Visa replacement, Gotcha.Nairn
    • You know that your precious EU worked to ensure the Visa/MC duopoly (American cos) was able to guarantee higher %s across the board a few years back?Nairn
    • it's cute that you do a bit of design work for some backwater fintech and are somehow a finance oracle. Perhaps you're wasting your time here?Nairn
    • Yes, I AM wasting my time here ofc
      But I come here for the lols

      Like in this case - a Brit - complaining about something everybody gets except them
