You don't need a blockchain with global consensus to do that.
- nibnalin 4y agoThat’s a fair criticism - I like to think a blockchain is akin to a shared computer we all have access to (via programs/contracts) which makes it really convenient to use blockchains in such ways. Besides, the perpetual machine properties of a blockchain allow code to exist independent of an individual creator/entity - exgrasia cannot go the way of club penguin for instance.

What happens when my little fishing tile is surrounded by $RACIAL_SLUR-ville? What happens when the landscape becomes a sea of swastikas?
