  @xanthe@furries.club I would be more than hesitant to adopt this for a number of reasons, a lot of them brought up in the article, but with deeper implications about the increased financial risk involved. I'm cut up over whether it's worthwhile to have a tool for making transactions in a way that circumvents censorship versus legitimizing tech with dangerous ideologies often surrounding it. I actually don't think this helps the dollar be more equitable, and might even segregate transactions of alternative media even further. One could perhaps frame is as a solution to a systemic problem if we ignore that it could as well be a vector to additional systemic problems, or at least making the initial one worse. A portion of the article is just "Well, i've bought into crypto, and yeah it's totally used for scams, but anyway, here's my wallet if you want to give me money." I don't know what the solution is, and I'm glad someone out there knows enough about the tech involved to write this, but the vibes here aren't super inspiring to me this time.
