Welcome to the Unpopular Opinion community!
How voting works:
Vote the opposite of the norm.
If you agree that the opinion is unpopular give it an arrow up. If it's something that's widely accepted, give it an arrow down.
Guidelines:
Tag your post, if possible (not required)
- If your post is a "General" unpopular opinion, start the subject with [GENERAL].
- If it is a Lemmy-specific unpopular opinion, start it with [LEMMY].
Rules:
1. NO POLITICS
Politics is everywhere. Let's make this about [general] and [lemmy] - specific topics, and keep politics out of it.
2. Be civil.
Disagreements happen, but that doesn’t provide the right to personally attack others. No racism/sexism/bigotry.
3. No bots, spam or self-promotion.
Only approved bots, which follow the guidelines for bots set by the instance, are allowed.
4. Shitposts and memes are allowed but...
Only until they prove to be a problem. They can and will be removed at moderator discretion.
5. No trolling.
This shouldn't need an explanation. If your post or comment is made just to get a rise with no real value, it will be removed. You do this too often, you will get a vacation to touch grass, away from this community for 1 or more days. Repeat offenses will result in a perma-ban.
Instance-wide rules always apply. https://legal.lemmy.world/tos/

It wasn't, but it sure looks like it to people who don't understand the volatility, or how slow transacting is, or how it opens the economy up to remote manipulation by foreign actors by pegging their currency's value to an unregulated and unmonitored asset.
So, are you going to expand on your point, or is this just a "dumb opinion", rather than an unpopular one?
Oof
You can justify your downvotes, call it a "dumb opinion" because that's what you believe. Really it's an unpopular opinion.
Confirmation that real unpopular opinions get downvoted here.
Perhaps elaborate a bit. A controversial one liner isn’t a valid opinion
Super important comment. Posters should be required to type st least a 50 word body to submit
You should be required to write a full peer reviewed essay to comment.
A valid opinion can be one line. You just don't agree so you're asking me to do something I don't have to.
Im asking you to explain your reasoning. That’s not unusual, and a low effort one liner with zero explanation isn’t a valid opinion.
