“proposed solutions solve this”
~ every cryptocurrency/blockchain/web3 article ever written
- wepple 5y agoThis is the TL;DR for me. Perhaps a lot of this will evolve and we’ll end up with some fantastic technologies that are truly revolutionary. But, a lot of us are pretty jaded by “blockchain is a game changer” with no tangible evidence beyond BTC as a highly unstable store of value and claims of some great future state.
- fivea 5y ago> (...) beyond BTC as a highly unstable store of value and claims of some great future state. Bitcoin is not a store of value, and never was. A highly volatile asset, specially one whose market price halves overnight without much surprise, does not serve the purpose of a store of value. I mean, this week alone Bitcoin dropped around 10%, and around 25% during the past month. This is not value being stored. If an asset manager lost 25% of it's wallet in a month they'd be out of a job.
- bombcar 5y agoEither it will solve something and you can get on later, or if you have to get on now “before it goes up” it’s just a scam (or”investment”) of sorts.

- vitaflo 5y agoYeah it’s starting to sound a lot like “this is the year of Linux on the desktop” to me. We’re always one year away.
