Darth is always looking for a fight

Native English speakers get taught at school that alliteration is good English. So often people try to match the first letter of things to make it roll off the tongue and sound better. So I might say "magnificent money" or "dirty dollars" or "lovely lucre" or whatever. Sometimes it can lead to some awkward noun/adjective choices. Since I don't think there are many English majors at SN (thankfully) a little awkward language in the UI is maybe to be expected. Doubt there is a deep state conspiracy to undermine Bitcoin via subliminal psyops of the SN user base (would be funny if there was though)

bitcoin is currency, right?

const placeholder = useMemo(() => {
    return [
      'comment for currency?',
      'fractions of a penny for your thoughts?',
      'put your money where your mouth is?'
    ][parentId % 3]
  }

I am with @DarthCoin on this one. He is right about everything so when it comes to something smelling fishy, Darth is the right person.

Must have dropped the legal retainer, calling credits currency loops right back to SN being custodial ;)

It just cycles through a few generic messages. This is one of them.

I thought comment for money will sound more strange, no?

Hha funny
