People see bitcoin/blockchain, don’t know the difference between the two, and realise other people have made lots of money on it. Same people see a new thing which also uses (or in their eyes, “is”) blockchain, and think this is going to be the new way to make money.

I really hope so

Hopefully more and more will join the indefinite blackout.

Huffman’s memo that dismissed the whole thing shows that nothing can be achieved with just a 2-day blackout.

From the point of view of the mods, there isn’t really anything to lose by staying dark. It’s not costing them revenue having their subs shut down. Hopefully most of them will realise that indefinite is the way to go!

I often found that on the bigger subs on Reddit. The smaller subs is where I liked to make myself heard. Lemmy, right now, looks to be a similar size to some of those subs, so hopefully it should be a great place!

PS - this is my first post here!
