RE: Making HBD Illegal
You are viewing a single comment's thread:
Once we get attention (finally), could SEC theoretically ban the trade of Hive? By this they won´t reach HBD itself but still they would obliterate the Hive/HBD ecosystem. They could sanction any DEX who is trading Hive. Just worst case.
The US gov. even managed to shut down a gas pipeline from one country to another (North Stream 2) alltough it was planned years ago, multinational contracts were concluded, it was already built, it would be environment friendly, etc.. All this in Europe where US should have no f...ing right to shut down anything. Just to illustrate their power, if they really want something.

The government banned drugs?
What happened?
The drugs became extremely valuable.
Imagine someone invents a flying car that can go into space or underwater.
And then the government bans it.
Now everyone that didn't ban it has an insane technology that USA doesn't have.
That is crypto.
So unlike drugs, crypto is an actual technology,
and banning the best ones is a very very very bad idea.
It simply won't work.
We can code faster than they can regulate.
Exponentially faster.
They still want everyone using their ever inflating easily trackable CBDC. This isn't over yet.
LOL! NS2 was canceled after Russia commenced its genocidal war on Ukraine and after having announced its aim being the restoration of its sphere of influence in Eastern Europe where it was during the Cold War.
That thing was vatnik friendly and that's the only way it was friendly.
The entirety of Eastern Europe was overjoyed to see that stupid thing gone.
Buying gas from Russia was the greatest fucking policy failure Europe has known since WW II.
Well, you see it from your side. I guess you have no access to other sources than NATO propaganda. Then you would knew that the cheap Russian gas was a source of prosperity for Europe.
You don't know much about the European energy mix, do you.
If you did, you'd know European countries have variety of approaches to energy.
The Nordics rely on nuclear and renewables. Norway exports its gas. France relies on nuclear for electricity generation.
Natural gas is a fossil fuel and a major source of CO2. It's a dead end.
A mix of nuclear and renewables + investments in energy efficiency are the only way.
Giving the Kremlin the power to extort you at will while continuing to burn fossil fuels in the decades to come would've been suicidally stupid.
It maybe a dead end, but the best alternative for the next decades, until nuclear fusion or whatever will take over. I don´t buy this CO2 bullshit, that´s just made up to create scarcity and oppress people.
Very well. Hive is full of people in one fringe or another. That may be one of the reasons more mainstream people stay away apart from the complexity and immaturity of the platform as a product.
Last summer's drought in Europe was the worst in 500 years. The heatwave was extraordinary. Similar anomalous weather conditions were seen also in Asia and North America. 1/3 of all Pakistanis lost their homes in a record flood resulting from melting ice and snow in the mountains. It will soon become apparent to an increasing number of knuckleheads that something's not right.
Not logic. Twitter has many millions of users and the discussions there are even more heated up.
I don´t say that something is changing. It is just way too simple minded to think "If we only decrease CO2 then all will be good.", The biggest contributor to the greenhouse effect is H2O, not CO2 by the way, in the form of water vapor.
Sure there are controversies on Twitter. But I'd say the loonie & conspiracy theorist segment is larger on Hive proportionally speaking. Crypto was originally and still is to a large degree anti-establishment and so are the so-called "free thinkers". A lot of them believe in the same set of conspiracies at the same time.
CO2 emissions from human activities mostly since the beginning of the industrial revolution have driven global warming as well as the acidification of the oceans. Warmer air is able to contain more water vapor. CO2 remains gaseous in temperatures found on Earth except for the most extreme cold conditions below about -78.5 C when it exists in the solid state under atmospheric pressure.
I'm not going to debate this with some random dude on the internet. The scientific consensus on this is very strong.
Where were the humans when CO2 was much higer than now?

And please mind your language. Unlike Twitter you can get flagged for insulting others.
And btw, science is NOT about consensus, in contrary.
The climate of the Earth, including the CO2 concentration of the atmosphere, has undergone a large variety of changes of great magnitudes due to differing natural causes over different time scales in its very long past.
However, human existence let alone thriving in humanity's current numbers is predicated on a pretty narrow set of conditions. It is not the Earth and life on it themselves we should be worrying about particularly over geological timescales. It is the rapidity of change brought about by the impact of our civilization - on ourselves - that should concern us.
