      If Bitcoin is declared too big to fail and ends up being backed by US government bonds I will die of laughter.

          the e-casino funbux.

          what is it with the prefix "e" for internet stuff circa 2016 or so?

          we had "email" since the 90s, and that was like the ONE word that had it, (okay fine, also ebay) then 20 ENTIRE YEARS passed, and only then did people start using words like 'egirl' 'eboy' and everything else

              As another example, esports as a concept have been around for quite some time

              yea, but the word "esports" has been up since at least 2004, according to Urban Dictionary

              stuff like "egirl" and "eboy" started appearing out of younger genZ lexicon around 2016. Kinda weird

            Probably because it specifically refers to people who both dress and present themselves a certain way, and who are terminally online. It's a phenomena that has possibly existed as long as people have used the internet, but it's easier to spend hundreds of hours online than it used to be, so it's a more common phenomena now that when the internet was new.

            Not that I know what being terminally online is like. Haha.

          the bank that tether uses is a bank with CIA connections
          Deltec. There's literally most dirt about it in books than online because of how old it is.

        I'd start preparing my tombstone now because it's probably going to happen.

      What are the hard limits on the capability of the state to conjure the funds needed to bail out the next big crash? Is there a limit, or can the can be kicked indefinitely, do you think?

          Yes, this is how the ruling class would have it, but isn't it one of the inherent contradictions of neoliberal capitalism that even the emergency bail out monies have to be accounted for, which results in further austerity which is already at ridiculous levels?

        They just handed like $50k in free money to every petite boug with a little roofing company 2 years ago and didn't bat an eye, I think they'll funnel every penny to the wealthy until the very moment this all collapses.
