Getting involved in crypto-anything just speeds up the advance to a money-less world and one-world government. If you have no real cash and all of your currency is on someone else's computer somewhere then those persons who control the computer(s) control whether you have money or not which means they control your life.

    "If I remember correctly, the lightning network is set up so that it sits between you and every transaction". What you just described sounds exactly like an old-style Mafia skim operation. It's one of the oldest scams around and you're right to distrust it. But, then, I distrust all crypto (fiat) currencies because, just like the US dollar, they're based in nothing and bound to collapse, eventually.

    Then, you have things like this:

    So, yeah... Any time I think of Crypto anything it makes the hairs on the back of my neck stand up.

      The Muslims can't establish a caliphate in Israel because it violates the passages in John's Book of the Revelation which state that the Antichrist must first come and he must be "The abomination that brings desolation standing in the Holy Place." At the time John's Book of the Revelation was originally written the Holy Place referred to only one place in the world and that was the Jewish Temple in Jerusalem. That must be rebuilt first in order for the rest of the prophecy to be fulfilled and I fully expect that it will happen. Then and only then will Israel be driven to the wall "and in those days all of Israel will cry out and there will be wailing and gnashing of teeth", after which will come a nuclear battle; "and I looked and, behold! I looked out upon a vast sea of glass." (Sand turns to glass when hit with either lightning or nuclear energy.) So, yeah, there's some things that have to happen, first but, other than that, you're quite right. We really are in the End Times.

      My sixty five years of experience trumps your twelve years of life.

      Your sixty five years experience with social media and crypto since birth? Is this what you do? You simply claim that you are old, and therefor always right?

      Question? Did you ever Question your parents? Were they always right? They have always been older than yourself after all.

      Here's an idea... Take all the money you have out of your pocket, burn it then flush the ashes down the toilet. There. Feel better? That's exactly what you're doing by taking your money and putting it into that stupid fiat bitcoin. But, then, you don't have to listen to me. You can just go ahead and do what you're going to do, anyway, because that's your choice. However, expect me to come back laughing and dancing all over your head when that shit finally does collapse and I can experience the joy of saying, "I TOLD YOU SO AND YOU DID NOT LISTEN!"
