These newbies not only act as though they are mining experts but also act as if they are economic and financial experts. lol
That "official government cryptos" line seems familiar, I think I read it several times today.
It's like they get discussion points sent out in a newsletter or something.
You wouldn't like a crypto similar to the speed and ease of use of something like NANO or IOTA that was backed by the US government's GDP and pegged to the dollar? Every ATM would be able to instantly switch between fiat and crypto and instantly update all account information.
It would probably require hardware acceleration like HPB to keep the TPS high enough, and it would definitely need 0Conf for small purchases and confirmations under 30 seconds for larger ones, but all that is definitely possible.
Everything is just way too volatile as things stand now for mass adoption.
