Covid-19, Lockdowns, Tom From MySpace and the Diffusion of Critical Thinking by @denmarkguy

I think that the concept of "fake news" is older than the MySpace example, but it's a good comparison for easier understanding... I was thinking about different scenarios WHY this is happening, but it's not that difficult to understand...
In my opinion, you have 2 major examples
-At the moment when a TV station was founded (and funded) by a government, from that moment it SERVES to the government to spread THEIR news... They can be fake, they can be real, but they are THEIR news and serve their purposes, goals, etc...
-The other example is a private TV station (or website, or any other media) that is funded by commercials... They are paid from them and to get the sponsor back the next month too, they have to have a bigger reach, more viewers... and how you can get that? By spreading bombastic fake news that will call the attention of the audience... It doesn't matter if the news is FAKE or REAL, it's a matter that people are watching/reading...
It was never about the TRUTH, never about HEALTH, it's always about the MONEY... That's why we need critical thinking, that's why we need BLOCKCHAIN, that's why we need a "different opinion"...

PayPal Coin, the PayPal stablecoin by @claudio83

Paypal was (and is) a blessing and a curse for cryptocurrencies, like any other "traditional" financial company moving to crypto... They will never create something decentralized and for the people, as they are used to doing things for them and 100% for their profits...
But, as you said, it would be a nice "gate" for crypto adoption in general... Will I use it? Maybe for easier buying of quality cryptocurrencies and for cashing out... Will I accumulate them? No way! :)

Splinterlands cards are great value right now and getting cheaper. by @niallon11

I always try to behave contrary to the general market. So when everybody will focus on buying packs, I'm going to pick up cheap cards on the market as you suggest. There are some nice opportunities waiting there. I'm also looking at the chaos summoners. Their prices are steadily declining...
