Bitcoin is the mongodb of finance:
You like its features but in reality most people don't need them.
Mongo's scalability sounds great until you find yourself reimplementing a relational database for your 1000 users app.
Bitcoin decentralisation sounds great but must people don't need it.
You just need a less evil and less corrupt government and better fintech.
You're curing the symptoms, not the cause.

- meowkit 6y agoI can’t tell if this comment is disingenuous or just naive. We’ve been trying to create less corrupt governments for hundreds of years.
