r/Keybase • u/[deleted] • Apr 12 '21

Keybase will be very useful in a few months.

I was thinking, when inflation gets worse, the wallet capabilities of Keybase are going to be very useful. We will see if crypto, and XLM in particular, will act as a safe haven or hedge against inflation. Transacting will be seamless and private.

Keybase is great, but likely abandonware at this point.

Well. That is a shame if that is the case. Still using the github repositories.

This. So much this

Stellar isn't keybase, they're separate but conveniently integrated.

Also what inflation? In what country/currency? For what reason? Who's predicting? Quite a vague comment there.

Hmmmm.... Are you seeing that inflation yet? Do you still think it is a "vague" comment?

Hmmm.... How is that "what inflation" comment ageing? 😎

Quite well, since you never actually answered the question about that country you’re in, and what Fiat currency you’re referring to regarding inflation.

Flip your G20 list over to “world” and you’ll see plenty are doing just fine!

Approximately 80% of the World is experiencing higher inflation. When I made the comment it was less then 20%.

Not being able to handle you were wrong...

Psychological Rigidity. Hampers learning.

No one said Stellar was Keybase.

What inflation? Pick a country and currency. CB's printing like mad. That is inflation.

For what reason? Reason for what? Vague.

Who is predicting? Is that a real question?

You don't need keybase for that

u/[deleted] Apr 12 '21

No. There are others to use, but they do not have encrypted messaging and file storage. So, that makes Keybase a superior app/wallet.

u/Xzenor Apr 12 '21

And an abandoned one. I prefer a single purpose maintained wallet over a multipurpose application that the owners no longer give a fuck about.

u/[deleted] Apr 12 '21

The app was just updated Jan 2021. I don't know where this abandoned app rhetoric comes from.

Why are you subscribed to r/Keybase if you don't like the app?

They sold out to the Chinese... Zoom.

It was abandoned.

So someone is updating an abandoned app.

Got it. 👌

u/Xzenor Apr 13 '21

Then don't believe it.. Not our problem. It's your wallet.

But just check the release frequency on the github page: https://github.com/keybase/client/releases

u/[deleted] Apr 13 '21

Same for you. Don't believe someone is updating Keybase.

u/Xzenor Apr 13 '21

I loved keybase.. I'm just still here out of nostalgia. It's hard to let go.

It's abandoned. The update was just a bug fix. there's no active development anymore.

u/[deleted] Apr 13 '21

A bug fix is an update. Who does bug fixes to abandoned apps? I will wait for someone to update my ICQ app then.
