The public ?
You mean the one i have been railing away at you all for fucking years on end
as you ALL bent over backwards to deny it ?
All of a sudden you are trying to use that against me ?
AHAHHAH I THINK NOT !
The public can do a quick Google search on the difference between ICO scheme and ALT-Currency.
They are not that stupid.
The public is not blown away by techno-jargon & catch phrases..
Turing Complete, Crowd-funding, Block-chain, APP's, platform, ICO, Immutable, Recursive, Angel Investing, ITO, Line trends, MARKETING ...for profit "schemes"
Do you really believe this?
People on here don't even know what some of those mean after years of participation. Do you really believe that Joe and Jane public will hear about a Russian cartel stealing $50m in digital currencies (0.5% of the entire industry) and will run to the web to school up on blockchain tech? IMO they will run the other way holding on TIGHT to their fiat wallets.
I've always been an advocate for adoption. sometimes even to a fault. I believe that all our techno-babble is complete and utter bullshit where the public is concerned. I don't think they care if it's centralized, decentralized, turing complete or Nashed hash cakes with Kim Kardashian's butthole tied to the helm. They just want it to work, be easy to use, and they don't want their money lost or stolen. If we can't achieve that then we are all living in cloud cuckooland. End of.
I'm just letting you know what I think we as an industry are up against.
