    It's a real breakdown of empathy. People only see skin color for their interpretation of "like me". There is so much to being a person, but this is the first thing people see, so i…

    Your example makes no sense. How would blizzard banning a wow account (I don't know the game particularly well, but let's just use this since you brought it up) be solved w/ Blockc…

    In comparing it to the mid 90s web, you miss three things: Everyone I knew was using 90's web. Home pages, websites for companies, movies, etc. It just wasn't really monetized or c…

    Scam after scam, that's all blockchain is. Just another way to fleece the average consumer. There has not been a single valuable use, a single product, that actually improves anyon…
