The digital currency set is larger than I thought (I believe it includes the items I've stated (see Wikipedia link re PayPay)).

If you call censorship resistance a 'fine line', I agree.

I explained why I made the distinction. You should probably learn to read a more carefully before making statements about all knowing this & that. Or fine lines.

What do you think the point of crypto is? Make me look silly, bro.

Edit: You see the information I've talked about? I created that. So if you've got more, I'd be impressed.

Edit2: If you've got any thoughts on the blockchain as a data-commons for AI, I'm all ears.

Edit3: Any thoughts on the future of the decentralised web? Tangles for the IoT? How evolution relates to hard forks? Anything like that? Or just some dictionary definitions?

My compatriot, I'm gonna be hoenst and say I have only a modicum of a clue what you've been trying to convey in this thread chain, and I've only been replying on what I've assumed you're trying to get across. No disrespect, I just think there's a language barrier going on here.

>I explained why I made the distinction. You should probably learn to read a more carefully before making statements about all knowing this & that. Or fine lines.

This is true. I have a habit of skimming and assuming if something's unclear.

>What do you think the point of crypto is? Make me look silly, bro.

Damn. If I came off as combative, wasn't my intention. Crypto's got a lot of uses. Fighting censorship through decentralization is one of its most notable features. Speculation and decentralized asset manipulator is another.

>You see the information I've talked about? I created that. So if you've got more, I'd be impressed.

I don't understand.

>If you've got any thoughts on the blockchain as a data-commons for AI, I'm all ears.

I don't understand.

Exploitation of networks will be easier to carryout and forensics will be easier to fudge on a decentralized network. Having everyone run through the same nodes and the ability to mask my traffic as a benign pass-thru will greatly enable cyber-crime, even more-so than our current clearnet. Censorship will lose its foothold on oppressing, but it will now enable the other type of independent criminal.

On tangles: I think, if I'm correct in assuming how directed acryllic graphs operate, this will be a boon for anti-censorship, but its still has the same pitfalls. I can catch a ride and spoof myself as a benign fellow network user. I don't know much about this, but I've put one of the whitepapers on my to-do list.

Maybe the 'crypto' vs 'digital' is too subtle for most ppl to understand (as in, what drives the use of the language. Why players are motivated to use the words they do). Maybe I didn't explain it well.

It's like the use of the term 'bcash' to discredit Bitcoin Cash.

If you -- not being stupid -- don't get it, it's probably not worth my time explaining it again.

Edit: it's past 1 here. Need to sleep. Sorry for the short reply. You should check out Monero. A look at what the privacy has to offer.
