      Yeah, crypto as an “investment asset” is a load of steaming hot shit that feeds environmental collapse.

      Trustable decentralised finance? That’s rad as hell.

      I mean not as rad as mutual aid and battering but why let perfection be the enemy of the good?

        It can help with mutual aid. People with savings can more easily strike, and support others who are striking. Activists shouldn’t have their accounts frozen, and donating to them should be anonymous.

      Everything improves when you get rid of capitalism.

      Crypto without capitalism would still be dictated by market economy though and a lot of anti-capitalists are anti-currency or anti-market. Not just anti-private-property anti-absentee-ownership.

      But yes, I agree. A mutualist (or a “Libertarian” Market Socialist economy) would be pretty cool.
