indeed, blockchain makes trusting people much harder. The hijacked sense of "trust" used by the crypto-hype is a trivial technical sense in distributed databases. Rather, an immutable ledger is a terrible system for trusting /people/, since if the data input into the system isnt reliable, there's no way to change it. You then need to build an actual layer of trust on top of your untrustable blockchain, and then you end up spending 1MWHr and $100/review to recreate rotten tomatoes.
