Buttcoin is the future of online butts. Buttcoin is a peer-to-peer butt. Peer-to-peer means that no central authority issues new butts or tracks butts.
A community for hurling ordure at cryptocurrency/blockchain dweebs of all sorts. We are only here for debate as long as it amuses us. Meme stocks are also on topic.

the 1% claim is a distorted version of a report from Chainalysis that said 1.5% of bitcoin use was definitely identified as crime
even then, they calculated this by carefully ignoring most of the crime
I dunno, sounds reasonable to me. Just like when recent studies by independent groups of experts on fintech enthusiasts found that investing in cryptocurrency was correlated with up to 70% increased body odor, a statistically significant drop in attractiveness and between one and three standard deviations below baseline level of self awareness.
The independent group consisted of me. The papers are available if you pay me 350€ for a yearly subscription to my journal.
