yes ffmpeg discussing economics, that was sooooooooooooo needed (i do agree about youtube finance though its 99.99% criminal) Heres the summary of the article btw: "Top central bankers ..." ... would loose their job ... so they write an article about it Let me NOT link to anything just state in 2 sentences why stablecoins are good 1. You can get 4% risk free interrest on them because they are backed by goverment bonds or other low risk assets. 2. Outside the "western world" you still have access to them, no need for a bank account, proofing credit worthyness, your local dictator confiscating half your money or hyperinflation taking its value away. thx [...] -- Michael GnuPG fingerprint: 9FF2128B147EF6730BADF133611EC787040B0FAB What is money laundering?
