I agree with this comment. The FUD on HN about crypto and fraud is disappointing to say the least. Impossible to have a good technical discussion around cryptocurrencies because of that. I’m going to start flagging these.
- rantwasp 5y agoit’s not impossible. just harder. also, remember that hn has a bit of an echo chamber effect. I’ve been downvoted over time for expressing unpopular opinions that turn out to be mostly true. i don’t care. i’m here with an open minded and will listen to the other side arguments. X is dangerous and must be stopped is not an argument. You need to articulate why it’s dangerous and exactly what you mean when you say that and when you say it must be stopped. also, crypto is not going anywhere. If you cannot see that maybe you should start looking into it a bit deeper

- Daishiman 5y agoIn sorry but I don't really see any crypto advocates talking about the tech at all. It's always at some undetermined point in the future, always products that solve problems created by crypto, and never anything consumer based or meant to actually reduce friction to make it a usable product for banking. Crypto advocates' ideas of problems in the financial system have no mapping to the issues that people working in real fintech and its consumers identify.
