And let's not forget the most important part, nonfungible. That's the real power of the blockchain.

That's like saying you don't need email because we already have a postal system
That's what auditing is for. Which is much easier and cheaper on a Blockchain than on the current systems

Ah yes. Because I want the community that brought us SafeMoon to be in charge of safeguarding our democracy.

This is a very long article that could be replaced with the word 'no'.

Was this article written in 2015? This is seriously seriously old news.

Difference between the tech and calling this an investment or means of exchange or whatever other nonsense the blockchain promoters have been telling us. Celsius anyone?

I saw a headline yesterday, "Cryptocurrency geniuses vaporize one trillion dollar."

''The blockchain emerged from a 2008 white paper on bitcoin, which was conceived as an alternative to fiat currency.
The opening line reads: "A purely peer-to-peer version of electronic cash would allow online payments to be sent directly from one party to another without going through a financial institution."
And fourteen years later I can receive crypto-coins from people in other countries in seconds, but to convert them in fiat (Yen) I have to go through ''Kraken Exchange'' in Tokyo, which is a financial institution. What a disappointment!

Yeah, I figured someone from china will be VERY interested in electronic election results....especially the U.S elections.

Ah yes…. A digital ledger is surely the answer there…. I can just scan the mango as it passes down my throat to verify that all info recorded on some blockchain is accurate….
Diehl‘s book might be worth reading. If I could get my money back out of my bitFlyer account maybe I could pay for it with those funds, unless they crash further in value first
