Was watching later dollar vigilante video. He seems to be suggesting that technology may have reached the point that there will be anonymous bitcoin kill markets. Perhaps, even, this is inevitable.

He seems to think that is a good thing. I can't say agree. I am guessing he believes that will force politicians to serve their constituents or maybe force people to be good to each other. I'm not sure.

In any case who would really be getting killed in such a society? The wealthy, who have public/private security, or everyday citizens who could scrape up a few thousand bucks to have someone they don't like killed.

What's more is such a technology could have wildly unpredictable effects on the type of society we live in.

idk about you but to me this sounds terrifying.

Way bigger immediate threat than AI in my opinion.

I would stop. You're going to go full retard if not already there. "Bitcoin kill markets" is the dumbest shit I've heard today. You can already hire a hitman on the deep web. This is nothing new and the method of payment doesn't change anything.

Do you even know the history of Bitcoin? Never hear of Silk Road???

If you think cancel culture is bad, imagine it in the context of crowdfunded anonymous assassination markets. The left hates your guts and wants you dead and would love nothing more than to see it happen even at great personal cost.

And that is why we are already in a war.

Cryptocurrency smart contracts are undeniably more cost effective for defense than standing armies. E.g. instead of spending a trillion a year on a standing army, put a trillion into a crypto insurance policy. If Opforistan invades you, put a 10 billion smart contract on the leader of Opforistan.

Opforistan continues to invade after their first leader is taken out by an opportunist? Repeat until no one is willing to lead Opforistan in the invasion.

That being said, I dont see this as percolating down to random civilians at any significant level. Even setting aside the moral and legal implications, it's just not profitable to freaking murder people in a free market. Murder is really only profitable for politicians because they can send Private Snuffy to go fight and die while the politician accrues power and resources at no personal risk. Whereas for random civilians, putting a hit on the other plumber in town is both unethical and unprofitable because it'll cost more to defend yourself from Hatfields-and-McCoys type revenge than you'd gain from becoming a murderer.

I don't understand what this glowie is saying really. But for anyone else bitcoin isn't a factor here, it doesn't help/hurt. Unrelated.

Wait, are you saying there will be lots of people hiring hit men and paying them with bitcoin to kill jewish politicians? TELL ME MORE! Also, please check the TOS so you don't get into shit here, ok?
