Matrix would probably be a better choice by now?
- birracerveza 5y agoProbably, but everyone has a Discord account, so if you want actual users you essentially have to use Discord (yay centralization).
- int_19h 5y agoIt feels like switching from Discord to Matrix is an easier proposition than switching from whatever currency people are using to cryptocoins.
- birracerveza 5y agoI don't understand this kind of comment. Why not just use both? You don't need to convert your whole networth into crypto, only in the currency you actually need: to use the (decentralized) service you need to buy the service's cryptocurrency. The end user is still paying for the service they use, but instead of being a "balance" on a private centralized database it's an actual balance on a public ledger. The only problem is that right now you need a wallet and to actually buy the token, but fiat on-ramps and wallets are getting better by the day, and the UX gap is closing. Eventually people will use "cryptocurrency" without even realizing it.
