This article seems like it could have been written in 2009 at the launch of Bitcoin. It has no real world examples or data. There are so many disaster stories. Is there a reason you chose to write such a high level article now? One of the things that made Moxie's piece a hit was it had real examples of his experiences trying to do things. But this article has none of these examples or experience. For example, your article misses people who are indeed using cryotocurrencies as banks [1]. It misses the current conversation around social management of keys. The rise of automated exchanges like Uniswap. Lots of room for critiques on these items. That the only examples of people using crypto for real banking are in collapsing currencies. That if there's such a problem managing keys that social management will still fail. But you seem to have missed all of them which really undercuts your article to me. Again, this seems like it could have been written in 2010 based on the concept of crypto rather than real world experience. Just curious about your motivations for such a piece. It certainly has attracted commenting here. Disclosure: I own crypto [1] Reporting of LocalBitcoin use in Venezuela. Certainly room to use these examples of why cryptocurrencies will never scale, but not mentioned in the article: https://www.reddit.com/r/Bitcoin/comments/s5i64l/24_btc_were_traded_in_venezuela_last_week_only/ https://www.reddit.com/r/Bitcoin/comments/s5i64l/24_btc_were...
