I was wondering what viewpoints and opinions this community has when it comes to cryptocurrency.

Personally, I'm not against it, but I'm not for it either. I like the concept of bringing back cash anonymity, and also decentralization (obviously). Although I don't think it will be viable for at least another decade.

Cool, I'll check it out! I've never actually used crypto to pay for something, so this will be a fun learning opportunity if anything.

    It's so fun because you really get the chance to use it and realize that you don't need government currencies and permission from third parties to do what you want.

    Yup, I'm going to start small with a VPN since Mullvad supports Monero. I've been meaning to get it set up on my router for a long time on a VLAN, and this seems like a good excuse.

    Not sure what's next, but might as well get started with just one.
