Crypto in theory places even greater priority on keeping track of reputation. Nobody checks whether your local bank actually doesn't suck because they assume someone else is checking. Crypto solves the problem of knowing that the means of the transaction is secure at the moment of the transaction but it can't inherently tell you the reputation of the other person you're transacting with.

One reason the great mass leveling of reputation that was supposed to happen due to the internet and stuff like Yelp hasn't happened is because apparently humans believe that they personally are always an exception. If they want to dismiss a bunch of bad reviews because they want to think it will work out for them especially if they want what the other person is offering or claiming to be offering. eBay and Amazon have spent who knows how much trying to figure this out and one of the main takeways from their research is that providing reputation scores/user reviews mostly just gets people to rank who they will do business with not actually refuse to do business if all the options are reported to be bad. (And also anyone who gets a bad reputation will just rebrand with a new username.)

In the case of crypto I think all the calls to have it regulated like banks or the stock market to "legitimize" it for the mass public are missing the point so much that it's amazing that supposedly credentialed people continue to be willing to say it publicly. Why would people interested in anonymized transactions want the government to be able to go through the records of every transaction with every party identified at any time?

Money comes from voluntary acceptance of each other like in sports.

DoorDash lays off 1,250 employees

Quote

In a message released to the public, Xu offered 17 weeks severance and 2023 vesting as part of the severance package.

...damn that's actually really fucking good, goddamn. 4 months to piss off and do whatever the fuck you want, plus stock options. I'm a little jelly my laying-offs weren't as good (well, that one where I got 1.5 months severance was really nice... but it was the least they could do after hiring me and uprooting me across states just four months earlier).

An Assyrian clay tablet dating to around 2800 B.C. bears the inscription: “Our Earth is degenerate in these later days; there are signs that the world is speedily coming to an end; bribery and corruption are common; children no longer obey their parents; every man wants to write a book and the end of the world is evidently approaching.”

I've been flirting with getting a new car and honestly, that ad probably did more to get me to look into the Ariya than most other car ads. Liked the music and the vibe, no annoying announcers, no shitty country music, etc. - I think the last time I vibed that much to a car ad music was Mitsubishi when they had Dirty Vegas in their ads.
