So after years of crypto - is there anything that is usable?

Explain the use. Succinctly.

Not much has changed. There are a few odd stores that accept BTC but that's it. At large it's either speculation or . The 2040 is probably going to be the decade where crypto is going to be widely used.

I use LTC for payment transfers, I guess, and I trade it with BTC. I use BTC for holding / collecting. I don't want to send my BTC, because I think its worth 100k+ in the future. Its speculating still.

I've used MNR for 3 years.
I also use Steem and BAT.
Adbank, Sia , Augur, and SingularDTV (why no one shills this makes me wonder) will become the earliest larger use case scenarios. I don't play games but I'm sure that they'll be used in these scenarios too.

The fact that it is a usable currency outside of the banking system. Fiat can be taken from you, you can have banking accounts closed with no appeal, your transactions are used to target ads and let the banks build a profile of data on you. It is the first time in the world there is a global electronic payment system without a central authority. Poker is one. But we've seen it help millions in greece, turkey, and venezuela when their countrys fiat went to shit.

Your first world perspective is extremely shallow. Do keep in mind that the USD has lost 96% of its value since the creation of the fed reserve. It is inflating much more than 2% like you read. Real inflation is getting worse with protectioist trade policies. Bitcoin lets you sidestep irresponsible monetary policy by your own government. Plus it is much more liquid than PMs for day to day transactions or transfers to fiat

You might use them but they aren't worth shit.

im actually buying electricity with SNC, many of us here are

this.
it's the first time in history a worldwide censorship resistant asset, fungible as money and not created by a banking or state institution existed

>no use case for crypto which fiat and traditional systems can't already solve at scale
Cryptolockers is the one that comes to mind, you couldn't do it without crypto.

>Fiat can be taken from you
And crypto can't?

how are u gonna take my private keys from me?

stolen, maybe, but here we are probably talking about "legally" taken from you

there has been quite a few events where a bank or other financial institution went under and people lost all their savings just like that

if you dont understand why bitcoin is amazing then go ahead and buy shitcoins like ripple, pleb

I've used buttcorn to buy some stuff, but that was years ago. There are less places and people who accept it now, as well.

As far as I'm concerned, crypto is a complete failure.

Monero

tokengen.io was built with ICO money by a few lads who limited ICO investments to a very low sum, so that only potential users (and not speculators) are buying their token.
That said, I'm a speculator so buy my bags pls

I dunno, how did they seize coins from Silkroad? Are you pretending to be retarded?

In less then 2 months UFR will shake the crypto world.

Greatly put, user

Novusphere is good example of crypto. Basically, in the case of Novusphere the plan is going to be to support all crypto that is capable of outputting a memo with each transaction. This would single handedly be the death of censorship as it will be an open source blockchain agnostic forum where even in the case of one coin being taken down they would have to kill thousands of other coins in the process.

This combined with IPFS is literally the end of censorship. Nothing will be censorable ever again. People will be using memos to store IPFS hash codes on posts. Anyone can pin any file they value. staking based systems and crypto donations will help pay for the costs of IPFS. Its an infinite loop.

It is literally game over at this point for censorship once this gathers momentum. People will be able to post using Monero to be more user than even Jow Forums.

And there is not dick ANYONE can do about it. Welcome to the internet 2.0. You can make money posting content, nobody can stop it, nobody can delete it, nobody is going to be able to garnish your wages, nobody can control it.

Over 2,000 Merchants accept Dash payments in Venezuela.

Dash is also partnered with Uphold which syncs your bank account inside the Dash wallet.

The real reason it cant be stopped is because you should view money as an evolution
>bartering, inefficient
>coins of solid metal, easily fucked with
>paper backed by gold
>paper backed by governments, current system everyone knows its fucked up and nobody likes it for various reasons
>???
Technology and trade have always moved forward and never backwards, where do they have left to go? Even if this is actually way earlier than we realize in the process, with newer concepts of crypto to come along if you take a long enough view of history through the lens of technological development as it relates to pneumismatics, currency, trade and the relationship between them, you realize we may have nowhere to go but crypto.

eh Okay, so u dont know
takes one to know one

>he thinks people give a fuck what they use to pay for goods and services
>he honestly thinks anyone who's ever used meme coins for any kind of actual real life purpose cares about the tech.

Devery. Not a currency, but a protocol that tracks shit. Works. There is an app for automotive services. Dealer/mechanic inputs what was done to the vehicle (oil change, rotation, accident repair) and it locks to that VIN. Anyone buying it in the future can see what was done thoughout the vehicle life. I think that's huge.

Sia, work for a media distribution company syndicated content to local K and Ws across America. We have 5 terabytes of cold backups here and it will just keep growing.
Beats Glacier on pricing and disaster recovery. But it is just an additional layer of redundancy not our primary hot backups.

>is there anything that is usable

If you mean usable for scamming, extorting money from people, and other illegal activities, yeah, crypto is "useful".

ZRX, DAI, ETH is used in my daily life.

I occasionally use XMR, BTC, MINDS

Well i use BTC a few times a month to buy stuff.
Fees are very low and all my merchants accept 0 conf anyway.
The killer app is obviously storing wealth independently from banks and governments and be able to pay with it. That also means (if you are not a brainlet) that you don't have to pay tax on it if you don't want to. More big boys realizing that will fuel the next run to 100k+.

I bought and mined turtle coin so I could be reminded daily that I deserve to be poor

When the chains need help they scream louder. Help them when they are down.
They are immortals, afterall.

Proof of work is waste of work
Blockchain is solution looking for a problem
You better off with stacking long shelf life foods, precious metals or even care bears than any cryptocurrency

Litecoin

Something usable ? Tronbet.pro The only casino that gives you a share of its profits from you wagering on their games

I'm in Australia and the Major of our city used HST ( Horizon State) for voting.

Marvelous application of the technology.

not one mention of xrp in the comments, this is why /biz stays poor

Monero is the only safe way to buy drugs on the darknet. That's crypto's biggest present use case. Along with tax evasion, bankruptcy dodging, and the like.

Use Litecoin, Monero, and XRP. Hodl Bitcoin. Nough said.

I use newdex to flip shitcoins regularly. I've also been having fun with this wave of gambling apps on EOS. Crypto blackjack is pretty addictive when it's functionally identical to a regular web app and your profits go straight to your wallet.

Funfair, world wifi, vibe... there are lots.
