    Citation required.

    But seriously, any correlation there is likely due to irresponsible people being more likely flaunt the law and smoke weed more than responsible people.

    Just because 95% of crypto currencies are junk nonsense, doesn't mean that none have utility.

    I do understand that the vast majority of "popular" crypto currencies are in the nonsense and have no utility category. But there are some that have a real world use and will disrupt some existing industries.

    It's a bit like saying all tech companies were worthless junk during the .com boom, which would be nonsense. But there most certainly was quite a pile of junk still.

  12. "Science Says" on We're All Getting Dumber, Says Science (fastcompany.com) · · Score: 2, Insightful

    Getting a little bored with the "Science" Says claims, like there's some governing body of authorised scientists that make things official.

    I've started replacing that term in my mind with "some random dude claims".

    What ' transaction costs' are you referring to?

    A lot of trading platforms will let you do trades for 0.1% of the value - doesn't sound too prohibitive.
