The negativity in this thread reminds me of the internet in the early nineties.
If someone had said that one day there will be a company that does billions by allowing people to fundamentally share their cat pictures and send each other happy birthday messages people would have laughed their asses off.
The blockchain can be seen as a giant immutable feed. Make of that what you will.
- brandonmenc 9y agoIt reminds me more of the P2P mania of the early 2000s - P2P was going to decentralize and revolutionize absolutely everything, and well, it didn't. It stayed in its narrow lane, providing benefits where it made sense.
- ThomPete 9y agoNarrow lane? I think that's a matter of definition.
- briatx 9y agoThat's strange. The blockchain hype reminds me instead of the late 90s dotcom bubble, and CryptoKitties reminds me instead of the Beanie Baby Mania of the same era. I don't remember any of the early internet negativity that Bitcoin supporters do.
- ThomPete 9y agoI do.
