In the long-term, I think blockchains will make a major showing in the design of self-driving vehicles (SDVs). For SDVs to really take off, it needs to surpass the safety of a human driver but the only way to do this reliably in a way that

That's a fascinating take but not strange at all since modern-day equivalents still exist in highly-skilled occupations like CPU design. Perhaps a comparable example would be an executive with a technical background: Jim Keller has hig

This is an interesting story. Was wondering if you have it written up somewhere so I can cite it? If not, perhaps you could mention how you’d like for it to be cited, thanks. On a lighter note your username definitely checks out :)
