Remember those famous inspiring words of Satoshi Nakamoto in Bitcoin's white paper: "peer-to-peer version of electronic cash allowing online payments to be sent directly from one party to another through a fascist-capitalist credit enslavement financial institution" ?

How about that part about "What is needed is an electronic payment system based on trust and submission, blocking any two willing parties to transact directly with each other through cryptographic proof."

Yeah, me neither.

So what in the actual fluk is up with all these a**backwards crypto visa/master credit cards? I remember when the first ones came out there was still a healthy amount of resentment and rejection among most of the crypto community, while only the bottom feeders tried to show off with their CEX issued crypto card, probably to buy their first debt trap "luxury" item just to gloat in front of an online audience of 14 year olds.

But we're already getting OT, the point is that paying with crypto through a centralized debt enslaving card payment system is like a bachelor course in being uneducated. It's like eating cinnamon flavored candy because you heard that cinnamon can help lower blood sugar levels. It's like using a butterfly net to scoop up water. It's like drinking alcohol because you are dehydrated.

I sometimes feel that the zombie crowd collectively and blindly jumping right into the next hyped up massive pile of elephant sh*t is truly meant to demotivate the rest of us. Meant to make us feel there's no hope because the brain dead have us outnumbered.

Well, be that as it may, as long there is just one other person with a functioning sound minded brain out there, he/she and me will be transacting through the PoW trustless censor free cryptographic payment system. And visa, mastercard, banks and yes also judas centralized crypto exchanges can all go eat the before mentioned 🐘💩
