I wasn't aware of how affected I've been by the current wave of anti bitcoin/blockchain/deep learning reaction. It's sad because ultimately, that kind of sentiment just limits the ability to appreciate really awesome stuff that people make, like this. I madly respect the creator of Bottle for wasting your time on something wo…
>And because it's on the blockchain, ownership is provable, the content is permanent, and it can be directly monetized forever. How can content be monetized foreved if it costs something to upload (send a transaction to create the block) but nothing to browser (navigating through the blockchain costs nothing)?
