This is where RCS and encrypted chats shine. SMS/MMS have so many flaws it's incredible that they're still used, and for things like 2FA to boot

Yet a lot of the safeguards are completely unnecessary in a trustless decentralized peer-to/peer system based on public key cryptography. We shouldn’t be building tomorrow’s payment rails by shoehorning in new technology into the mold left by card payment processors who haven’t innovated in 60 years. Bitcoin IS a better technological foundation. We’ve only just started building things on top of that foundation. The people who argue Bitcoin will never be a currency are the same people who doomed the iPhone when it first came out because it didn’t have 3G or MMS.

Call the system interface to send MMS?

It's MMS programming. They instantly switch to attack mode, because that's what they've been told to think.

I'd make the joke about how if you'd started as a billionaire maybe you'd make it, but looking at your choices I doubt you'd have a million left. Man for real though... You remind me of my friends mum. She got an unsolicited MMS that was a picture of Tucker Carlson with a photoshopped quote about how the elite don't want you to know about this Bictoin (sp) trading strategy that makes everyday people millionaires. All she had to do was download an app and send them $1000 and they'd 10x it. They said they'd accidentally made a 20x instead, but they needed another thousand to transfer the money back. Long story short she sent them $10k and I'm pretty sure she wouldn't have bought GamerCoin NotaScam in 2017.

I mean didn’t they just sell everyone’s data to the MMS?now no one wants to use them cause of it? Or more?

Both the iPhone and internet required massive physical infrastructure deployment and investment from end users. When the iPhone was first released it was AT&T exclusive and AT&T spent a lot of time and resources building out a network that could handle the many multiples of data traffic the iPhone required. Yet it still put such tremendous pressure on the network it was unusable in many areas while AT&T scrambled to upgrade the network further across the board - towers, backhaul, internet peering, etc. People have literally died building out this infrastructure: https://www.propublica.org/article/cell-tower-fatalities As time has gone on we’ve had to sunset entire parts of licensed radio spectrum and move other radio applications, hardware, etc to make more room for cell bands. Oh and the iPhone itself was expensive, fragile, and guaranteed to be superseded in a year. It also wasn’t all that useful at first - it famously didn’t even support MMS and took years to get copy and paste! With the internet in the 90s it was even worse - trenching fiber and cable across the world, upgrading phone networks for DSL, installing dial up modems with local numbers across the world, and countless other factors. We were literally digging up entire countries. Block by block. Mile by mile. Not to mention SENDING SHIPS ACROSS OCEANS TO LAY FIBER. If you’re going to tell me the groundwork for the internet was decades in the making here’s a fun fact - the first fiber optic submarine cable was laid in 1988. 13 years later in 2001 at least 500 million users were on the internet. 13 years after bitcoin all of blockchain has roughly 100 million users. From the earliest days of the internet until at least the early 2000s getting on the internet required a computer that cost thousands of dollars (inflation adjusted) and was guaranteed to be practically worthless in 1-3 years. For the first five years I had the internet (until 1995 or so) I had to pay my ISP per minute AND pay long distance per minute charges to the phone company because my ISP didn’t have a local number. Yet even with these challenges the internet was so obviously beneficial it had at least a billion users within a decade of that era. Since the release of bitcoin in 2009 all you ever had to do was run an app on your cell phone or computer. What is that, an hour of your time? 10 minutes? Before you talk about how hard bitcoin was in the early days and how bad the UI/UX was let me tell you about Hayes commands, PPP chat scripts, just getting the IRQ settings right on your f’in ISA modem, etc. Everything about technology was much harder in the 90s when the internet exploded against those odds anyway. Bitcoin wasn’t slowed down for a decade like the internet was for me when I waited that long to finally get a cable modem. Bitcoin has had the opportunity to take advantage of the internet, mobile, social media, and more. Leveraging all of these platforms bitcoin adoption should be many multiples faster than the internet. Yet it’s actually more like 10% the rate. Here we are 13 years later and more than 98% of the five billion users on the internet don’t touch any cryptocurrencies or blockchain. Those are real numbers. If it actually solved a problem or made their lives better people would use it. It doesn’t and they don’t.

2 things are constant in technological progress: automation and decentralization. Automation is easy to understand for most. You can think of it as cutting out the middle in a business transaction using some form of digital asset. Since digital assets can be infinitely reproduced for free you can effectively remove the middle man and make a business transaction cheaper and possibly more efficient. Decentralization is a bit more discrete. It's the idea of creating open standards and protocols in software that any programmer could utilize or add to for free. Think HTTP, SMS, MMS, RCS, USB etc. Web languages HTML, CSS, JavaScript (which is technically ECMA script standard) are all "open sourced" standards that the communtiy gets together and decides where to take these languages. An example of decentralization would be Apple dropping the lightning port and moving to USB C. USB is an open standard that anyone could build and you don't have to pay anybody if you did. So a bunch of businesses can profit from it. Lightning port, on the other hand, is a proprietary piece of hardware built by Apple. It's centralized by them and therefore they stand to make shit tons of money by making thier customers use it. But Apples shift to USB C shows us that open standards will always win in the long run. No matter how much money they are making decentralized standards end up taking over. Centralization in a way emulates today what decentralization can accomplish in 10 years or whatever. But no central authority can build monetization system around a completely decentralized asset, therefore bringing costs down once again. AOL centralizing the internet in the 90s would be another example. They gave us an idea of what the internet could be by connecting to their intranet and eventually trashed the concept because the decentralized internet was just better. Bitcoin is a blockchain implementation. Blockchain is an algorithm for creating a data structure called a distributed ledger. A distributed ledger is essentially a decentralized database. If we can one day design a fast and efficient decentralized database over the internet we can stop storing our user generated data on centralized data centers (AWS, google, facebook). If we own our data online then we cut out the middle man. We are far from it but "web3" is about taking the power from centralized services and giving that power to the people. It's kind of hippie idealist shit. I am not a finance guy. I couldn't tell you if the price of bitcoin is going up or down. But I am a technologist and I can tell you that blockchain protocols allows us new innovative ways to automate and is an active way to decentralize data over a network. But you never know, someone might come up with a better method of decentralization tomorrow and crash all blockchain assets. This is just the best we have right now

MMF was the competitor to VVS. They're literally the same thing. Problem was VVS has fuuuuuuuuuuuucked tokenomics, but was officially supported by the Cronos team. MMS had much better tokenomics but the team was just like most community teams, a bunch of moonboys. Part of the MMF campaign was to go to the VVS subreddit/discord and shit all over VVS. People in VVS responded in kind and launched one of the most savage crypto wars I have ever seen. In the end, everyone lost and IMHO it all really hurt the Cronos network. Didn't help that this all launched at the literal God damn top so all VVS has done is bleed since day one. I finally threw in the towel at -90%, luckily with only a couple hundred bucks. I saw some dudes who went in with 10's of thousands on it and held long enough to take some massive losses (hopefully they cut their losses).

This actually looks like a straight forward MMS shared from the Mars.

>But you need to pay SMS/MMS fee if you want to get rid of ads. Who the hell doesn't have this already build into their phone plan? I don't understand why anyone wants to use third party apps that do what you already pay for.

namingisterrible

>If that's your way, you can still do that. Yes. That's why I said this. But you need to pay SMS/MMS fee if you want to get rid of ads. Or you can believe that some XYZ-messenger won't do the same and won't sell your data but still magically provide you a service for free.

It stands for Multi Media Solutions, not the wireless MMS acronym.

This reminds me of when Steve Jobs went on stage with a 3GS and said "..and now it can recive MMS" and all the sheep screamed like girls on a Justin Bieber concert.

OB1182

Sort of this. In the Netherlands we were used to paying per SMS and MMS was even more expensive. When data plans rolled out people were starting to use WhatsApp because it used so little data to send a WhatsApp message it was basically free and killed the SMS market.

OB1182

I hardly use WhatsApp anymore but it's so fucking engrained in Dutch society it's fucked. After whatsapp cought on they actually shut down MMS features on the network.

You are talking about a different type of inflation. Increasing the monetary supply is not the type of inflation we are talking about. Inflation in this context is the sustained increase of price levels of goods and services, which certainly can be exacerbated by MMS policies but they aren't the same thing. Supply shocks probably have a larger effect
