I have two problems with all existing crypto currencies.
1. Are they fundamentally safe or are the scams?
2. Will they get shut down by governments?
Both of those questions leave me feeling very open to risk. People willing to assume that risk before either issue has been resolved may reap whatever reward early adoption gives them. But if you build a business on the wrong tech you could get bankrupt or worse.
Most of the big dotcom 1.0 companies disappeared (or are dying before our eyes, RIP Yahoo). Maybe it is better to be a crypto 2.0 business.
- albertgoeswoof 9y agoDon't mix up crypto currencies with blockchain Think pets.com vs the internet
- reggieband 9y agoI'm thinking more like SOAP vs. REST, except with the penalty possibly being outstanding debts in a currency that has been made illegal.
- hestefisk 9y agoIt’s more SOAP vs TCP/IP, the latter being Blockchain.
