the most sensible thing to be stated in this thread is that BTC is a rube goldberg machine. bitcoin and everything todate related is simply an overkill in complication for a p2p currency.
the blockchain idea leads to too much complications trying to plug its obvious flaws, leading to the biggest flaw of them all complication itself.
as i say its a currency not a mission to mars.
I agree with this, too.
Instead of using our brainpower to find a way to answer the question, "why crypto" to Joe Blow, we are making it harder for him to understand everyday.
Or let's spend our energy figuring out how to market a crypto, which seems to be a lot harder then we ever expected.
