This project was stupid from the start, I could never see it working. It never made any sense using ‘distributed ledger technology’, the ASX are the central authority and they want to be in that position… Making anything distributed isn’t actually useful to them or people who interact with them… They just got caught up in ‘blockchain hype’ and clearly there were some sales people in the right place, at the right time. Some people must have got away with serious cash from this boondoggle.
- gramie 4y agoI remember sitting in on a meeting with some high-priced consultants who solemnly declared that "the future of the web is blockchain". We were discussing an update to our main university website. The consultants had probably each earned my monthly salary to drive down from Toronto for that afternoon meeting. The other developer and I just looked at each other and wondered quietly if the consultants knew they were talking gibberish.
