Tezos uses Ocaml; doesn't the same argument apply? (I don't agree with the argument, personally, and I'm a big fan of Ocaml... I just don't see how it deserves an "ethical concern" exception here.)
- wmf 6y agoThe question would be what fraction of the OCaml community is paid by Tezos. If it's over half you may have a problem.
- gmfawcett 6y agoI would agree. :) Is that the case with Haskell? The OP only says that "some of the very founding contributors to Haskell itself" are deeply involved in this.
- dimitrios1 6y agoAnd the answer is, no where near half, maybe close to a couple percentage points, if that.
- dimitrios1 6y agoI am ignorant of the primary users of Tezos, but I imagine given it's low value relative to other coins, it isn't the prime target for black market deals, money launderers, and other criminals. I love Tezos, personally, and think it's one of the more technically superior blockchains, and can see it having a better chance than other stable coins of having broad applicability to more than one or two industries.
