    I wonder, in this supposed apocalyptic future, who is making the semiconductors that will be needed to secure the bitcoin network? Can it really be considered a collapse if we have a 100% working semiconductor industry? How fucking stupid are these people that they don’t even ask the first obvious question?

      not to mention a 100% working and unified internet; bitcoin’s continued operation is incompatible with all of the likely failure states for the fault-tolerant internet (not that we’ve really got the fault-tolerant one in operation, with how centralized the modern internet is)
