qecez··on How to outsource marketing for your side project
In the same boat with zlipa.com

I believe it's got potential, marketing however is my weak spot (pathetically blowing my own horn just now serves as proof).

qecez··on Proof-of-stake is inherently self-referential
Are you implying fiat can't coexist with Bitcoin? Why does it have to be one or the other?

The way I see it, Bitcoin's mission is to simply hold the fiat currencies of this world in check. Nothing less, nothing more.

Just like if the rest of the land didn't exist, your Manhattan apartment would cost substantially more today.
