Not that would, but that will. And from what he told me seems that he isn't alone, but I admit I don't have a proof for this.

- wpietri 7y agoQuibble over words all you like, that's still not a demonstration of real use.
- GTP 7y agoI'm not quibbling, there's an actual difference between showing interest in something and taking action to actually use something. You were the first to focus on the meaning of words, so I just corrected you when you misread what I wrote, that's all. On a side note, I think that cryptocurrencies tend to attract highly polarized opinions: from what I saw so far, seems that there are people that try to defend their use at all cost, but there are also others that seems to think that everything that uses a blockchain is gibberish by definition. Please note that I'm not saying that you belong to the latter group, I just wish to point out that in my opinion each use of the blockchain has to be evaluated on its own, and in this case I think there might be some value.
- wpietri 7y agoIt's quibbling, because you are apparently unable to understand that a person saying words is not what was being asked for, which was "actual data" that "demonstrated some real purpose". It's quibbling because you keep ignoring the meat of my point, picking instead a word choice to argue about. I don't believe that everything that uses a blockchain is "gibberish by definition". I do believe that so far every single thing I've seen promoted under the banner of "blockchain" has ended up being vastly more hype than substance. Or, as I said, "so heavy on theoretical possibility and so light on actual data." Your turning up with more hype, more airy possibility is willfully unhelpful.
