Is it possible to become a billionaire in China without submitting to heavy oversight and ultimate decision making power of the Chinese Communist Party?
I understood the invisible hand to be an argument that the aggregate supply and demand of individuals pursuing their own self interest would make it so that there was no need for central plannin

A friend fixated on UI's
pre handcash laughed at whatever I've shown him
"You're joking, right?

Put his handle on here. I will buy him a beer, that will blow his mind.
I view Memo as a nice proof-of-concept, but long form / high volume storage will be better served by other blockchains or solutions long term, and then this tech will fade out. My 2c.
not all data must be stored on one single blockchain. "just because you can, doesn't mean you should." Why not long form hi def video content? because it'll get priced out one day.

I must say that the debate between a fictitious perfectly capitalistic society and totalitarianism isn't convincing whatsoever. I don't need the Internet to tell me I don't want to live under Stalinism.
I could tell right away from the start about the Core bunch from the way they treated BTC they didn't hold any coins and didn't care about where it's heading.
