As someone else said, this argument is tautological. You're saying it's useful because it's in use because it's useful.

As someone else said, this argument is tautological.
You're saying it's useful because it's in use because it's useful.
- colordrops 5y agoYou are suggesting that there is an alternative. What perchance might that be? Some authority figure or organization that decides whether something is useful?
- dagmx 5y agoThe alternative is to say something of actual substance instead of an empty statement saying it's useful because it's useful.
- lukeramsden 5y agoThe same can be applied to your comment of "Crypto doesn't really solve a problem that needed solving". That's not an axiom, thats a subjective opinion, saying its not useful because it's not useful. Plenty of people will, and have, argued otherwise.
- colordrops 5y agoI didn't say it's "useful because it's useful". It's "useful because it's used by many people". Unless you are implicitly agreeing with me that the definition of useful is that many people use something and find value in it.
