It only works better on a global scale and only for certain cases. And if you ignore problems present in the current banking system.

My examples would be:

people traveling (or refugees fleeing) across multiple countries would benefit from some kind of cryptocurrency in that their assets would be easier to access globally. No having to convert their money as they cross borders or dealing with banks and credit.

People living in places with unstable government and financial institutions would maybe benefit from having access to a decentralized global system to store some of their money in a system their government doesn't have a hand in or control over

Cryptocurrency is still a new technology and idea. Centralized banking has existed for thousands of years.

Capitalists did what capitalists do and tried to prematurely scam and squeeze as much money out of the idea as possible. Potentially forever ruining the image and possible impact the tech may have had.

Im pretty salty over what happened with NFTs. There were a lot of exciting things it could have been applied to. But no. It turned into money laundering with ai generated images.

Idk about that

Russians usually commit unalive by hurling their lifeless bodies out of a window

Not by hurling their lifeless bodies in front of a truck

Never played this game but i did watch like a 5 hour long compilation of the cutscenes

Would the game still be worth playing at this point or is it mostly about the story and cutscenes
