Not sure the point your meaning to make.
I was simply explaining that many crypto-currency systems are demonstrably more adversarial and user-hostile environments than most other currencies. Not only are they more adversarial, they are more adversarial in a way that most computer users aren't equipped to comprehend.
- sowbug 9y agoAre "hostile" and "adversarial" the right words for the point you're trying to make? Cryptocurrencies are powerful, and they offer no recourse in case of user error. You might say the same of a chainsaw or a nail gun, but nobody would call them "hostile" or "adversarial."
- canoebuilder 9y agoYeah but when you're using a chainsaw there is no one who is attempting to weight the machine in a certain direction potentially putting you in danger. And there is no one with an incentive to do so.
