There's a bit of irony in my statement as I don't assume you know or
don't know. We, as a population, depend heavily on trust for day-to-day life. As an author of an article like this you might consider that speaking as trusted authority on something which provides computed trust will affect the trust the general population has in said technology and in you (and the rest of us Bitcoiners). The general assumption is the value of Bitcoin is linked to how much people trust it. When you post things that negatively impact it, perhaps intentionally or perhaps altruistically, there's going to be trust issues between people who disagree with you.
The best way I can describe this effect with cryptocurrencies is "it's a polarizing topic". :)
Blockchain technology, no matter the implementation, will always have some degree of risk associated with the trust it embodies. Nothing will be made to be perfect. The question I'd like to know the answer to is whether or not it's providing enough value for the applications it currently runs, and what other applications can be improved by adding the blockchain's natural immutability to them.
Thanks for writing something interesting!
