  Nobody invests IN the US dollar though. A currency is not supposed to be an investment.

    It’s also pretty telling that all the crypto stuff is always measured in dollars

      That’s what I always tell people. A bitcoin or etherium or dogecoin or whatever they have is essentially valueless because it can’t be exchanged easily for goods and services. 100% of it’s value is derived from how much real, useable money you can exchange it for and nothing else.

    currency investors do exist. i know a dude who had more money than god and thought “huh, well let’s see” and now has more money than two gods because the fuck is lucky.

    I wonder how much of Lemmy would disappear if I blocked .world

    • HeyThisIsntTheYMCA@lemmy.world ⁨2⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago

      a lot of it.

        No wonder the mods can be power trippers; they control most of Lemmy. Wasn’t decentralization supposed to prevent that? (Rhetorical question ).
