Yes, lets dismiss it altogether. Crypto is adverse to the core culture of software engineering. Keep shunning it and it will go away. Lets not be disrupted.

  This is only tangential, but I really hate everyone calling cryptocurrencies "crypto" (and Wikipedia "wiki"). These words had meaning before, you know, and it's really confusing if you start overwriting a term. "currency" was added to "crypto" to form "cryptocurrency" because the word meant something already.

    urm, it did? i thought it was just a shorthand for cryptography previously? don't see a problem with shortening something else to the same string, as both are just terms you use because you're to lazy to actually spell it out.

    Crypto is the new cyber.
