Against support of blockchain technologies
Blockchain technologies are an overcomplicated and inefficient solution to problems that either don't exist, have other solutions, or it doesn't actually solve. All at the cost of unnecessary amounts of energy and hardware resources. On top of this has been built a system of scams, tax avoidance, and money laundering. To quote Jackson Palmer "cryptocurrency is an inherently right-wing, hyper-capitalistic technology built primarily to amplify the wealth of its proponents through a combination of tax avoidance, diminished regulatory oversight and artificially enforced scarcity."
By introducing integration with blockchain technology in any form, Discord is showing support for all of this. The feedback here is clear that the vast majority of the userbase does not want it, and the few that do are engaging in personal attacks and transphobic rhetoric. Are those the people you want to throw in with, Discord?
