Buttcoin is the future of online butts. Buttcoin is a peer-to-peer butt. Peer-to-peer means that no central authority issues new butts or tracks butts.

Maybe off topic, but can you realistically "steal" crypto? It's just a system where you need a key to authorize transactions. It's not tied to a person, it's tied to a key.
It's like, "who you are" part of authentication doesn't exist, so therefore who you are wouldn't define ownership.
Can you really "steal" money? It's just paper with numbers written on it, just because the person who possesses the paper has changed doesn't mean the paper has.
Yeah, but if you steal my money, the centralized state can punish you and demand restitution. It's like when Seth Greene had his NFT phished, he had no legal recourse to get it back.
Has there been any case where people stealing crypto got them in trouble? The only thing I've seen is where people create rug pulls and they get charged with fraud, so legal repercussions against an organization.
lol holy shit
