No wonder crypto is successful, it triggers all the paths in our monkey brains that drove our ancestors to worship trees
Bumping for chainlink. Sergey will surely save us from obesity by valorously eating all the Big Macs.
Wyatt Reyes
Sergey is like a minor demon that a rando cult decided to worship, then the meme of that demon takes on a life of its own, and soon the real Sergey is forgotten.
Brody Brooks
You're goddam right that is, now help me convert those BSV people who were led astray by the false prophet who claims to be the messiah. Eternal generational wealth awaits us for accomplishing this mission.

>math and game theory is a religion
K dude.
David Foster
Except it is actually based on something real; math, science and cryptographic algorithms.
Zachary Baker
it becomes even more interesting to think about how this board is actually feeding an old god, kek. the memes are a of worship (check em!)
Jeremiah Foster
Trees are actually useful tho And far more valuable
Cooper Martinez
*form of worship
Michael Moore
Glad somebody else gets it. This is exactly the reason crypto (likely in the form of BTC/BCH/BSV or ETH) will win. Sound money that cannot be violently subverted is a literal deus ex machina that has already attracted a cult following similar to the early days of Christianity. The fact that crypto is a sort of god-like entity, in that it exists in a realm at least partially separate and apart from existing systems of social and economic control is going to become increasingly obvious to more and more people through future "bubble cycles" until eventually the majority simply take for granted that the world's blockchain is a kind of "higher power," similar to the way medieval Europeans simply took for granted that they were being watched over by an omniscient god. What the long-term consequences of the above are is anybody's guess, but it should be obvious that whatever happens there will be a massive social transformation as a result.
shut your blasphemous mouth. only kek and satoshi power btc.
Cooper Gray
I think Tether is the scientology of crypto. Designed from the ground up to scam money, and controlled by a bunch of shady folks.
Parker Moore
user, all religions are based on something real: the human desire to fill ignorance with an explanation, and the need to impose order on an inherently chaotic system.
Juan Sullivan
ehtereum is the muslim crypto. it's big but not as big as bitcoin (christianity)
Brandon Murphy
Meh, Protestantism was initially a minority fork but it eventually grew to displace the original chain (the Catholic Church) in a lot of spheres. Given that forking is the primary mechanism by which a ledger can evolve and change it is wise for any crypto investor to have fingers in all the pies with the same lineage as far as the ledger is concerned. The space is flooded with emotionally charged misinformation regarding all bitcoin forks. Unless you are clairvoyant or have some juicy insider information, the smart thing to do as an investor is to remain fork agnostic to the greatest extent possible.

No wonder crypto is so successful, it BTFO’s religious thinking and faith. Crypto is atheism.
atheism is a religion worshiping the non-existance of god through science and churce of
Lincoln Ross
but how does this relate to Internal Revenue Code section 501(c)(3)?
Jackson Reyes
The printing press made the bible and other books accessible to regular people which made people realize that they could get to god without the church as an intermediary, this is what led to the protestant reformation.
Bitcoin made people realize that they could have a direct relationship with money without banks and governments as intermediaries, which will lead to the crypto revolution.
The parallels are truly amazing, Satoshi is the modern Luther.
As an internet marketer, I dare say that is a good thing
Justin Gomez
kek, you are onto something here OP
Blake Carter
At least blockchain is real. The stories in religious texts are not.
Isaac Moore
Atheism is a fake jewish religion thats just worship of self and ones ego.
Blake Ward
The "stories" in religious texts are not meant to be "real," you retards. They are meant to distill extremely difficult to understand spiritual concepts that cannot be expressed coherently by most brainlets using allegory or a fantasy framework. Just because something is framed as a "fantasy" doesn't mean that the underlying content is not valid. The people who crafted the stories you read in sacred texts were geniuses who largely succeeded in encoding the profound into a language more accessible to those who do not have direct experience grappling with the spiritual world directly on their own terms.
>Satoshi is the modern Luther. That would make bitcoin trash then. No Craig Wright is luther. An idiot windbag who thinks too highly of himself. Satoshi is christ kicking out the merchants from the temple.
Holy fuck 12 year old logic confirmed. Kill yourself.
Lucas Thompson
Isn't it the same question of how math works, or where math comes from? If you assume that numbers work because of adjective traits (oneness + oneness = twoness), then what gives things its ness? According to religion, I am sure for this "ness," or whatever it is giving birth to "ness," to be God. Regardless of whether you can explain where God itself comes from. What is it according to your atheism? God here is just an abstract concept... you don't have to take it in such an autistically literal sense.
All that aside, atheists today seem to completely reject to even acknowledge the concept of a conscious existence = they don't even value their own ego, such that they would rid themselves of their own consciousness if it means turning themselves into a better consumer robot. What a shitty ideology...
Jacob Cox
>Who or what invented god? goat fuckers
Ethan Parker
>What a shitty ideology... how can be not believing in something an ideology? subnormal scum
Ayden Bell
Math is an abstraction of the real world. Math, music and so forth are different forms of communication. If you're against math you're against civilization as organization which leads to civilization needs math to work.
Bentley Smith
>Math is an abstraction of the real world. But where did the real world come from?
