Ok I give up crypto is the worst thing ever

OK, thanks

You don’t have to put your life savings in, just use it to send 5 bucks across the network the same way you use Venmo

Monero would be the obvious choice of cryptocurrency for this community. No public ledger. Like the lemmyverse here, no currency is powerful until many people use it, so instead of resisting, which simply reinforces the status quo and keeps the companies in control, dive in and help grow the ecosystem, like you’re doing here!

Regarding your last question, I could ask those about cash. Crypto is a lot like cash, and if you lose it you’re kinda screwed. You just need to learn how to keep a hardware wallet safe.

I’m taking about creators like people who might use lemmy as their primary place to display the fruits of their efforts, be they photographers, artists, programmers, NSFW models, the list is endless. Integration of cryptocurrencies to pay people flies in the face of what these people currently must do, which is go to YouTube or onlyfans to profit, leaving these companies to take more than their fair share. Giving a way to pay people right here would grow the community and decrease reliance on these third party companies that indirectly pay people off the views they generate through ads.

It’s just obvious, and whether or not people like it, crypto payments will get integrated in the l̶e̶m̶m̶y̶v̶e̶r̶s̶e̶ fediverse in time

Ok, should I write a check? Who do I make it out to? How bout direct deposit: just give me the bank account number. Why is lemmy anti-crypto?

“Why not just give them money?”

Because every way to do it is trackable and cryptocurrency offers privacy-protecting ways to pay people. This should be important to this community. Nobody batted an eyelash opening their wallets to Reddit for coins, awards and nfts, but crypto is the scam? Ok

OK, thanks

that IS funny

So to rephrase my statement, I want the Dutch speaking lemmy users who are irritated with my posts in English to be able to block the entire lemmy.world instance from their feed.

Right but creators can exchange it for money to like, pay bills and stuff. Don’t be daft

Edit: you can donate to lemmy in crypto https://join-lemmy.org/donate

Why if it’s a scam?

I want to block instances like lemy.nl because the posts are all in another language

yeah, money sucks

Forget useless awards, we need c̶r̶y̶p̶t̶o̶c̶u̶r̶r̶e̶n̶c̶y̶ tipping abilities baked in here.

Edit: never mind

You’re not wrong, but I imagine the question being asked tongue in cheek
