- caslon 4y agoThe author is incredibly critical of these technologies, and very much does not like them. The article mentions this.
- bertil 4y agoI read wun0ne point as how blockchain implementations has a disastrous environmental impact. The article doesn’t mention that at all, and openly advocate for blockchain.
- WithinReason 4y agoProof of work is not fundamental to crypto
- conqueso 4y agoThe author is well known for being an outspoken critic of crypto. She is speaking to the toxicity of cyber bullying, not criticism itself.
