@momurda just out of curiosity sake do you think that blockchain will have a place in the financial industry, just not as cryptocurrency as it is now, or is it just all garbage?

@penguinwrangler As a currency it is garbage. for tracking merchandise it is useful.

@jaredbusch Yes a couple people here thought it was the best thing ever outside of bitcoin.
Being a subscriber is probably good, giving them investment money probably not -
@momurda The thing about it is this, who is going to be first to sign up for Moviepass? The people that like to see a lot of movies, which causes them to burn through their money. I saw a news release that had that they needed to reach 5 Million subscribers to be profitable. I guess the math works out that way. I won't resubscribe though.

No. You are wrong. People discussed it here, yes. People said it was a good deal for the subscriber. No one here ever said it was a viable business model or was going to last.
Also you disregard for everything blockchain is also well documented that you have no understanding of the actual dynamics at play.
