CRACKDOWN, CRACKDOWN CRACKDOWN!
Crack down on deez nuts, lmao gottem.
Some gems from the comments:
This is a classic case of why centrally planned economies don’t work. Political ideology takes precedence over efficient markets. It was destined to fail.
But… China’s economy has not failed. Putting the cart a thousand miles before the horse.
It’s also why Putin is willing to throw an entire generation of Russians, including the convicts and addicts at Ukraine. Russia is dead for 40 years because he failed to fulfill his mob boss promise to Xi. China is now clearing farmland in Siberia because the typhoon floods last August and September wiped out the Chinese people’s food storage.
Wake up, babe, new BlueAnon conspiracy just dropped. 
Xi’s just not into him or her; only Xi.
Found Elon’s account. 
A lot of those, like “cracking down” on NEETs and the gaming industry, would benefit the economy if done successfully.
Liberal infighting… It’s so much more boring than leftist infighting. What will happen to the NEETs when Xi presses the button?
Huh! Hooh! Huh! Hooh! Huh! Hooh!
Because they all want to get rich quick and saw Crypto suddenly shoot up that one time 8 years ago and think it’s their tickets to the good life.
It’s the poor people that want something for nothing, according to them though
Crypto also pushes a lot of libertarian/ancap delusion buttons: code-as-law eliminates the need for human trust and consensus, the network is immune to the meddling of the state; you no longer need banks/middlemen/regulators as we know them. Proof of stake and proof of worth are both basically flavours of “buy your own authority.”
Would not be surprised to see parentheses around some of the nouns in some versions of those arguments.
There is the occasional conceptually interesting thought on the philosophical aspects of money as a social construct, and attempts to solve pain points in financial ecosystems, but it pales in conparison to the speculative shitshow cryoto became.

Work entire life: “want something for nothing”
Join the electric burn pyramid scheme few years too late: “ticket to good life”
“monetary movement”
Wtf, best argument I have ever heard for crypto???
How do people do that anyway?
you can read my kinda cringy guide https://hexbear.net/post/876371
It’s harder now that local Monero shut down. I think you buy Bitcoin via bisq and then use atomic transfers to convert BTC to xmr. The issue is fiat to BTC usually.
So far I’ve used it to buy VPN access, Anna’s Archive fast lanes, and temporary real phone numbers, with it. Other then that its been pretty useless.
(Though those three things have been really useful)
