Hi all,
I find the term "timechain" cooler. Cool

In this article at Bitcoin Magazine,
https://bitcoinmagazine.com/culture/bitcoins-blockchain-is-the-timechain

The author argues that "timechain" more accurately describes Bitcoin because it emphasizes the fact that Bitcoin is a chronological ledger of transactions.

Moreover, one can argue that some software developers find that blockchain is a bad data structure. I mean, a blockchain does have features for its original purpose to solve the double-spending problem in a distributed system, but for general computing or development of distributed applications, it's better to use something else.

P.S.->Thanks to the members who supported freedom to express my opinion in the "I don't like the term 'crypto'" thread.

P.S.1-> In software engineering, it is considered a good practice to keep a glossary, that's why I'm thinking about those Bitcoin community jargons.

What do I call you now? A man of conspiracy theory? Thanking people who supported you about your heretic ("I don't like the term 'crypto'" thread) shows you are forcing things. Well, that's if anyone supports you at all because what you proved there was just out of point. Now is "timechain" again believing you know it better. Aside from the fact that the word itself is odd, it's more of a conspiracy theory when it is blocks we fill and build in the cryptocurrency world. How are you building the time to link together in cryptocurrency?

Well, don't let me waste much time on you, I can now see that you are trying to chase clout and turning the upright thing upside down.
