Very interesting conclusion. Let me see if I can follow along:
Adding an SSL cert = SSL
SSL = encryption
EnCRYPTion = CRYPTocurrency
Cryptocurrency = Bitcoin implementation
Bitcoin implementation = Bitcoin price
Yes, I see now how they're equivalent.
The article definitely is hand-wavy and there are other reasons to be skeptical but conclusions like this rarely help the situation.
- vntok 6y agoAdding an SSL cert = minimal IT skills required Understanding cryptoassets = Above minimal IT skills + more skills + more knowledge required Not knowing how to add an SSL cert certainly does not bode well for one's expertise on crypto. Knowing how to do so but not caring is even worse.
