The Crypto Thread

I imagine Biden will be as effective at banning crypto as he is at doing anything else.

The only real difference is the regulated markets lobby/bribe those in charge vs the unregulated ones antagonizing them.

What a terrible article. Waffles on about copyright and then gets to…

Parker does not own the copyright to the footage of his daughter’s murder that aired on CBS affiliate WDBJ in 2015. But in December, he created an NFT of that tape on Rarible, a marketplace that deals in crypto assets, in an attempt to claim copyright ownership of the clip. That, he hopes, will give him legal standing to sue the social media companies to remove the videos from circulation.

I’m sure that’s how copyright works.

The article continues for a while on NFTs and other avenues that will also be dead ends.

Lawyer chips in then

Moish Peltz, an intellectual property lawyer who specializes in blockchain, crypto and NFTs, said the digital tokens could pose unique tests for how copyright principles apply in cases with extenuating circumstances.

“We’re not rewriting copyright law here, but I do think that NFTs create a new context where there just aren’t legal decisions as to how they should apply in certain cases,” Peltz said, adding that “some edge cases … raise some interesting questions.”

The only interesting question is their hourly.

Gotta have the scratch, for one.

Not saying this is happening in crypto/nfts, but didn’t Zillow lose like a billion dollars doing this, all while destroying both the rental and housing markets?

Whats the quickest way to get your business/industry/etc regulated? Start ignoring court orders. (Yes, I understand that Nunchuck believes this order to be unenforceable, but the more that happens the quicker it will lead to regulating the industry as a whole so that it IS enforceable.)

I dont think the convoy was the problem, it was the shutting down of major country to country shipping lanes that was the big problem.

*2nd quickest.

First quickest is to have the biggest mega-donor of the party that controls Congress have a personal vendetta against your whole industry.
