  • Rapeseed (Brassica napus subsp. napus), also known as rape and oilseed rape and canola, is a bright-yellow flowering member of the family Brassicaceae (mustard or cabbage family), cultivated mainly for its oil-rich seed, which naturally contains appreciable amounts of mildly toxic erucic acid.[2] The term “canola” denotes a group of rapeseed cultivars that were bred to have very low levels of erucic acid and which are especially prized for use as human and animal food. Rapeseed is the third-largest source of vegetable oil and the second-largest source of protein meal in the world.[3][4]

    Brassica napus subsp. napus is the proper name. Everything else is slang and not worth arguing about.

    We call it Sunflower Oil

    We call it Rapeseed Oil

    Not Rape Seed Oil







  • Same can be said about traditional stock markets. The prices are entirely fictional there, too.

    Not true at all.

    Microsoft has 7.4B stocks outstanding.

    Microsoft has a valve as a company.

    Owning 1 stock gets you 1/7.4Bth of the physical company.

    If Microsoft goes bankrupt or dissolves you could get some value out of your share.

    There are 19.9M BTCs

    BTCs have no intrinsic value

    Owning 1 BTC gets you 1 BTC

    If BTC goes under you get nothing

    The stock market does have artificially inflated/deflated prices but they are roughly based on a company’s value. The stock is backed by the company.
