Tbh for the average person, I agree. Actually I think they benefit from centralized powers that can reverse fraud, etc.

- iamben 5y agoHaha, yes, with you totally! Perhaps it's a little like the Linux vs Windows/macOS/iOS/Android thing - "have complete control of your computer! Prevent people from spying on you! Tinker under the hood!" - and yet most of us are content with changing the background picture and happy if we don't get malware. I wonder if cryptocurrency is doomed to the same fate. If we take away the speculation and get rich quick - for the average person, what's left? If it won't make me rich (and there's a risk it'll make me poor!), why move from what I already have that works (arguably) far better?
