True, controlled by corporations or individuals except a few. XRP is an example of a coin that could be drastically changed and the coin owners would be left in the cold.

As a kid I once flew a kite with almost 1,500 feet of kite string. A quarter mile or so. It sagged quite a lot but we estimated it was about 350-400ft up or so in a field. Then a crop duster showed up.

I put the string between my legs while a fiend held the spool and ran as fast as I could to bring down the kite.

We were also about 1 mile past the end of a air force runway.

Weird to compare a brutal dictatorship which violates human rights on the regular vs a democracy which violates human rights a little less.

If you do not know a lot about "crypto" then I would say the main thing to understand is that there is Bitcoin (not owned by any single entity) and then there is everything else. Other "coins" are owned by corporations that can make decisions about it and change it to some extent. These are extremely risky.

Bitcoin (btc) does have risk but much less. It is not owned by any company or person or country. It is like the internet, only exists because tens of thousands of internet providers(miners for Bitcoin) around the world make it possible. Bitcoin has, in its codebase, a limitation that any change must be agreed upon by 95% of these providers(miners). This way security patches and bug fixes can be added because everyone agrees those are good. Other harmful changes would never reach 95% agreement therefor could never be implemented. There is a limit of 21 million Bitcoin and this number can never increase unless 95% agree to it... which they never would. This is in stark contrast to normal money which is constantly printed(at random rates depending on who happens to be in control at that moment) so that the supply increases making its value drop.

Scamming happens with cryptos, Bitcoin, euros, dollars,yuan... and always will.

I think what makes this pic look strange is the phone was placed exactly between the sun and the dog so almost no shadows.
