I don't even have to hand over my personal banking information, so no worrying about data breaches, another use case! I'm sure you would consider paying for a legal service to be a legitimate use case. > monkey jpeg brigade Whoa, name calling, well that always shows the strength of your argument. > who feel that the artificial demand from criminals laundering money and posing as legitimate crypto investors is a feature Didn't realize I was a NFT supporter by calling out your contradiction. Oh, and a straw man too, always nice to see. Also, technology can be abused? Who would have thought? Its a shame that primary users are the criminal masterminds who've apparently become art connoisseurs of monkey jpegs. I don't seem to remember supporting "laundering money". Do you mean in the same way that banking at HSBC, BYN Mellon, Deutsche, Swedbank, Danke and others is supporting money laundering? [1-6] Or how banking with BoA is supporting fraud?
