Okay but this is the price for true freedom vs police state
Crypto is absolute true freedom <3
Monero is the greatest invention since internet to fuck govs and corps in the butt and if you burn yourself sometimes as a side effect, it isn't too great of a price.
Doing the illegal stuf is the main greatest purpose. Idk why everyone thinks illegal equates evil automatically but it is a flawed worldview.
It is just a tool like guns or hacking
I absolutely love it and this is my love letter to it
Not the guy you were replying to.
You've asked why crypto is hated by other people. The vast majority of people who have any experience with crypto... will be people who were victims of rug-pulls. A natural response to a first experience being bad is distaste. This isn't the price of freedom, it's the price of personal responsibility and ignorance.
Don't forget ransomware!
