StoneToss (allegedly, formerly Red Panels)

What you're thinking about is inflation, and its unrelated to what we are discussing.
See, here's what you're doing, just based on what I've read: you don't know what Bitcoin is or how it works, you seem to have a very flimsy understanding of what money is and how it works, and this is because you haven't been paying attention. But rather than actually do any research, you're in here trying to act like you not paying attention to something important means it's not important.
Remember how this started, with you saying it's a pyramid scheme, which is wrong in multiple ways. And now you've ended up with just some assumption that corporations secretly own all the Bitcoin, you're just reaching wildly for objections to this thing as multiple people keep explaining it to you at length and now I think people are just baffled that you just refuse to even open up Google and do like 15 minutes of reading. If all the Bitcoin is owned by a few corporations, Bitcoin has no value because then it's not trading, it's not being used, it is literally just a digital hoard with no function. There is no reason for Amazon to swoop in and own 90% of Bitcoin, because then people wouldn't use it, and it dies. Banks and corporations are trying to get into crypto, that's why they're starting their own coins and their own infrastructures. But if your takeaway is how this reminds you of Gamestop somehow, you're not outsmarting any system by just repeatedly claiming you don't get it.
Then I didn't get what your point was in the previous post, but regardless the law of "more things on the market->price falls" is always kept and no one has yet is tell me what's keeping bitcoin from it except some vague assertion that it won't happen.
The whole "you are uneducated on the matter" reeks of a "You need a really high IQ to understand bitcoin". If you have a webpage that can concisely explain to me what is the advantage in bitcoin then I'd be happy to read, because I didn't find shit besides people repeating what bitcoin is, or being aggressive as if I've insulted their mother.
I used the exaggeration of Amazon having 90% of the stock to make a point, even a smaller sell can cause a cascade of lost trust, which is pretty much the only thing Bitcoin has, and in general believing some meme stock that will infinitely rise is completely idiotic.
Btw, am I the only one remembering people talking about bitcoin being an alternative to regular cash?

I don't understand your confusion here, it has already been explained to you at length how the more bitcoin is mined, the harder it is to mine so the system itself self-regulates. This is actually the least confusing part of how it all works. We know this because it has been famous around the world since around 2012. You appear to believe that corporations and rich people haven't been trying to do precisely what you are telling us about, and we are telling you that it won't happen that way. There's already been rich guys buying out entire warehouses literally filled with computers to mine this stuff for years, there have been corporations into this, the thing you're talking about isn't happening and it isn't cause the greediest entities on Earth somehow haven't been paying attention.

Yeah and there's some days where the stock market is chaotic, and yet the stock market still exists. I understand the point you are trying to make, but you fail to understand tha tpretty much your entire position is trying to sell us on a scenario where people dislike Bitcoin as much as you do.

It is. People use it for transactions every single day.

As far as I'm reading this cryptocurrency thread (lol), nobody said that bitcoin can't devalue; only that it isn't different than any other storage of value in that regard.
 
At this point, no one should be buying into bitcoin as an investment to see annual growth on. The point is to use it as a medium of exchange. The value might grow due to increased demand, might decline slightly due to continued mining (but that only goes so far and you can't "print" crypto of that sort the way the Fed can with dollars), but overall it should be treated as another currency rather than as an asset to be bought and sold.
 
The pyramid scheme makes sense because it works the same way for the average Joe. Pyramid schemes say buy X amount of cosmetics, sell those to your friends and then get your friends to sell and take some of their profit. Bitcoin people who bought in first make a profit off of all the lower tier people buying in at an increased rate often with the lowest tier making very little profit the same way the bottom of the pyramid does. Being able to buy more low profit coins/cosmetics doesn't stop it being scaled the same way a pyramid is. The people at the top get immensely more value from each coin mined than the ones at the bottom do.

Are people forgetting last year when multiple (((banks))) bought up a ton of bitcoin? Amazon might not be able to farm it all up but there's large company investments propping up the industry. It's very telling that the current Nigerian Princes are selling bitcoin instead of shares in their spam.
Words have definitions and Bitcoin is not a pyramid scheme whatever you may think of its actual value. There are legitimate criticisms of crypto but that isn't one. That is just dumb.
Well, what is this one saying? Is it pro-satan, or anti-Trump? Going by the logic presented here either both of them should be okay or neither, either way it would be contradicting one or multiple things he's said in past comics.
He's saying they're both idiots freaking out about bullshit.

I'm seriously doubting that's ever going to happen. I think it's a good long-term value storage commodity. I think the actual use of crypto as a medium of exchange is going to be for some crypto that's solved some of the impracticalities of BTC, like Ethereum or, more likely, some as-yet-uninvented currency that improves on Ethereum.

I suppose you're correct, you genuinely do not understand his comics.

Its topical. Gay nigger, lil nas x, has come out with a faggy Satan "art shoe" (the peak of black culture) while also coming out of the invisible closet as if he's a 19th century lesbian. Take one look at the guy and you know he is of queer variety. For the past 2 years since his major hit, old town road, where he plays a flamboyant cowboy, his music has been marketed to children very heavily. Now add in his Satan shoe's (with aids blood) and his music video literally has him hell. Maybe the comic might make a bit more sense.

It is pointing out that the son does not consider a TV set blatantly displaying Satan to be evidence of the media promoting Satan, but considers an 'OK' hand gesture to be a certain sign of white supremacism.

It doesn't necessarily state that the media is pro-Satan, but it does heavily imply that this suspicion is more reasonable than the fear of white nationalism due to the 'OK' sign. It does not say that both of them should be treated the same way, because it does not put them on equal footing. since the images used for each of them are not equivalent. Since it's a comic, this is important.

It's basically accosting modern liberals, etc., for ridiculing fears of Satanism while believing that things like Orange Man making the OK sign would be white supremacism.

(The Satan image would seem to be an attempt to represent the Lil Nas X music video about Satan, that he promoted with his infamous Satan shoes.)

The video literally has him taking it up the ass from Satan at the same time as he's marketing something he's calling "Satan Shoes" that literally contain human blood.

Does it work as a store of value if you can't exchange it for at least some goods and services?

Holy shit, you're dumb.

Let me explain it slow for you.

OK, the father, obvious Gen-X or Late Boomer, sees a video on the television where a black gay dude takes it up the ass from Satan and is promoting tennis shoes with blood and satanic imagery. He is reacting according to the hysteria of his day and saying it's that "they" are marketing Satan to kids, the Satanic Panic.

The purple haired xer, used as visual shorthand to denote a Millenial or Zoomer retarded person, sees a man with blond hair making an OK sign and responds with his own generation's hysteria, squealing "HU-YT SUPRA-MIST!" after denigrating his father's take on the previous visuals.

In closing, all of this should tell you: You're mentally handicapped and should probably wear a brain bucket and have a handler.
 
It's playing off both generations of what they fight/fought against. The parent is based off the 70s-90s waves against art, videogames, etc. for being too satanic and will have kids worship witchcraft. The kid is modern millenials and zoomers trying to tell him that it won't happen. Then with Trump, it's playing off how they think he's the second coming of Hitler and how he creates Nazis. He's not giving his opinion on Satan or Trump, just poking at how similar both the parent and child are in terms of thinking.

Holy shit, you're dumb.

Father is seeing the corruption of youth through Satanism and the kid doesn't see an issue with it. The son is over reacting to an imaginary boogie man. It can be read multiple ways. Either Satan panic and Trump both being false, which I disagree with. The corruption of youth is real and promotes Satanic stuff, which is my read or both are true which isn't Stone tosses usual style. It's one of his weakest comics because it can be read in so many different ways.

I wonder if there was a concept to describe creative works that are partially open to interpretation. :thinking:

Which is a bad thing when your primary purpose is to write propaganda comics for your slightly edgy conservative/"alt right" fanbase. He has an audience and he knows what they want from him. Making vague comics which can lean either way risks been seen as a fence sitter.

Your clear (intentional or not) misunderstanding is why you will never counter the "alt-right menace" keep tilting at those windmills tho tard.
