Because those groups were right wing and funded by political agitators, multiplied by manipulated media. The people on the ground did believe in the issues, but it was a concerted effort of political theater as a show of force.

Everyone else is now debilitated by wage theft that they can only care about the economy. When the market crashes harder and full recession hits, that’s when people will take to the streets because they’ll have lost jobs and freedoms. That’s when the martial law will start.

I agree that there’s some line, but if we’re really talking about $1.5bn & it really is a theft, it seems reasonable to me. /shrug

It’s probably money laundering anyway, but I dunno. If the blockchain is protected through a decentralized ledger, couldn’t they vote via governance?

Keep in mind, I read the headline & not the article. I got no clue what chain or crypto involves the story. The web3 world gave me a salary boost, and that was enough for me. It was stressful working in a grey area at times.

These incidents sincerely undermine some of the “big advantages” of blockchain. I worked for an NFT company for awhile, and we talked about how people stealing like this would just have the funds reversed because the blockchain can fork to solve it. But that shit rarely happens, or if it does, it’s probably all international money laundering. I have 0 faith in the community now, and it was a whole cult back in 2021.

Absolutely.

I like it, but also sounds like federation porn.

I was told brain freeze happens because of the temperature difference between the roof of your mouth and the stuff above it. If you start to notice brain freeze, it’s supposed to help to put your tongue against the roof of your mouth to balance the temperature back to normal.

This may all be bullshit. YMMV. This trick has worked for me.
