## Command Line
|
|
26
|
+
|
|
27
|
+
Use the `oracle` command line tool. Try:
|
|
28
|
+
|
|
29
|
+
```
|
|
30
|
+
$ oracle -h
|
|
31
|
+
```
|
|
32
|
+
|
|
33
|
+
resulting in:
|
|
34
|
+
|
|
35
|
+
```
|
|
36
|
+
Usage: oracle [options]
|
|
37
|
+
Print wise oracle sayings / crypto quotes
|
|
38
|
+
|
|
39
|
+
Options:
|
|
40
|
+
-n, --number=NUM Number of quotes to print (default: 1)
|
|
41
|
+
-h, --help Prints this help
|
|
42
|
+
```
|
|
43
|
+
|
|
44
|
+
|
|
45
|
+
Let's give it a try. Ask the oracle (it's free):
|
|
46
|
+
|
|
47
|
+
```
|
|
48
|
+
$ oracle

We have not entered "Post Tether" yet.

Tether is still furiously printing digital bucks.
|
|
56

|

57

It's not - it's a Ponzi, and Tether is its Little Helper.

A friend of mine, who works in finance, asked me to explain what Tether was.
|
|
77
|
+
|
|

Short version: Tether is the internal accounting system for
|
|
79
|
+
the largest fraud since Madoff's ponzi scheme.

and the psychology of get rich for free. People will believe ANY NONSENSE
|

35

if they might get rich for free.

The main difference from Bitcoin is a different hash designed to be

46
|

resistant to GPU mining (though ASICs eventually came out) and a shorter block time.
