Neurocrypto, my cynical take on cryptocurrencies, is now up at Martian Magazine.

I’ll be honest here, I put cryptocurrencies and NFTs on the continuum between libertarian grift and outright scam. Topped off with a generous helping of environmental destruction!

I remember years ago their proponents touting them as absolutely secure, intrinsically safe (No regulatory regime required!) and destined to be the future of frictionless, secure financial transactions.

Nowadays they make the news when yet another massive scam and theft has been perpetrated, while the sales pitches now sound like con men pitching their latest grift.

So, Neurocrypto? Yeah dude, go for it.
