Which blockchain-related conferences did you attend in the past year? Can you tell me specifically where I can physically find these scammers?
I attended a dozen or more of the most significant events, including ZKSummit, ETHBerlin, and DevCon and I must say that I did not experience anything like what you're saying.

Why are you attacking me personally?
FWIW, I have a degree in political science from one of the best public polysci programs in the USA. And I think that my work in software development / python / crypto engineering speaks for itself. But if that's not the case for you, and you want more traditional compsci chops, there's no shortage in the blockchain field.

I have concerns about the sustainability of PoW; we all do. But looking at the warfare, imperialism, and environmental parasitism that state-controlled monetary policy and its "growth" has brought us, I think it's not so bad.
It seems likely that a serious PoS implementation is coming soon with Serenity/Casper. What do you think about that development?
I recently demoed the latest NuCypher version at ETHDenver. [0] It's not clear to us how we'd do what we're doing without the decentralized incentive structure of the blockchain. Can you suggest an alternative?
