Strong agree. This is a lazy polemic. Take, for instance, this one amazing part: > Goldman Sachs, Citadel, Andersen Horrowitz those guys are making transaction fees "Andersen Horrowitz"? Does the author have any idea who he is

You think that ARK is late, but we're actually still very early. Guarantee you that "technology trends from the last decade" will be bigger than ever before in the next one.

That's not actually correct. By giving an external person a check, you give them the ABILITY to PULL funds from you. It looks like a push, but it's actually not. https://www.bankrate.com/financing/banking&#x2F
