How do you perceive the role of blockchain technology in global geopolitics?
Could the success of blockchain projects like Solana be considered a form of soft power exerted by the US?
The only significant difference between Bitcoin and the other top-10 currencies, from the standpoint of the average consumer, is the price. All of these products do exactly the same thing. If there are technical difference between Bitcoin and Solana, for instance, they are not visible
in any way to almost all of the users of these products.
This is unlike, say, electric car technology, wherein there are cars with greater range, a cheaper price, more performance, faster charging, and longer lifespan--and much more.
Cryptocurrencies have very limited practical use and are simply investment instruments for nearly all of their users.
As such, I would say there's no geopolitical significance to these products
at all.
That comment is not going to sit well with a lot of Blockchain advocates, did you really say blockchain/crypto haS no use case outside of simple investment instruments? Lol you really think people on this forum will believe that.
