It's okay, if Stephen Diehl's 18 (!) [1] anti-crypto blog posts didn't convince you, I'm sure this will be the one. [1]: https://www.stephendiehl.com/blog.html

  Yeah I've read a bunch of those and if nothing else they actually make some points that need to be discussed. I think things like pointless and excessive energy use, "don't you just need a database really", "doesn't decentralized storage kind of suck in lots of important ways" are much more substantive criticisms that web3 projects need to address than "I disagree with how some projects choose to organize voting", which is nothing more than a bottomless bikeshed and could be made validly made about "pre-web3" projects as well. For example, I can remember Debian for example having "lively debates" about its voting system inside and outside the community since at least as far back as 2000. I don't think anyone outside that project has any right to an opinion about how Debian want to arrange their voting and I feel the same way about every weird-ass token-voting system some web3 project wants to put in place.

  Not only that, somehow his "Tech Blog" and "Blog" are two separate things, but every single blog post in the "Blog" section is about cryptocurrencies.
