holy Christ what is windows' deal

@Nakadai_mon I was thinking Munchaisens by Proxy, but I guess it's not necessarily a syndrome

@11112011 realised today that I don't actually look at the FSE timeline, what fresh hell am I missing

@Nakadai_mon name that syndrome

@thendrix I've always thought local coins like "London Coin" or "New York Coin" made some sort of sense, and in this case a local goldback is a step up from that imo

@thendrix Free state projects are a good use case, as it might allow prices to remain stable locally instead of suffering under the deflationary pressures of BTC.

@jeffcliff "all rumours are false until someone threatens to sue"

@jk no.

@thendrix not sure if this counts as goldbacks but a friend of mine has paper gold

Made a lot of sense in the medieval era (it's basically how central banks were formed) but today I don't understand why you'd settle for a second-rate fiat/gold hybrid.

Buying physical gold makes plenty of sense to me.

@Burnt @AzurusNova what was the source?
