You need to understand common cryptographic primitives as well as computational complexity. Those concepts are at the core of “blockchain” systems.

- dozzie 9y agoI would also add that one needs to have very specifically lack of understanding cryptography in general, given how people writing various blockchain products mistake blockchain for different unrelated things (like consensus protocol, distributed data store, or voting protocol) and are highly surprised that centralized document timestamping can work well in place of decentralized one that blockchain is.
