RE: Blockchain and the End of the Western Civilization
This was a really well written and amusing analogy, I absolutely love it @sorin.cristescu. Barbarians or Romans, change is coming and I believe it is too late to just "make crypto go away"...
( on the other hand I guess technology has been successfully suppressed before, but now that crypto has had so much attention and usage I think it is virtually impossible to suppress)... I guess we will see!
In my more recent post on the upending of money and credit I draw another analogy, to the Gladiator movie. The current masters of the mint would very much like to do whatever in their power to see crypto go away. And they do wield considerable power.
Yet like Commodus in the Gladiator movie, their power springs from the peplum, the plebs. They can hardly risk upsetting the masses and the masses seem to like the crypto / "Spaniard". So all "Commodus" can do is point the thumb up and let "the Spaniard" live ...
Yeah, I am actually reading the "Blockchain revolution: Money and Credit" article that you wrote right now, I will comment on that one as well.
The big money-masters have a lot of power, and I guess they could get together and decide to try and hand out "crypto-smallpox blankets" to us all or something evil like this? 😕
(watch out for the next air-drop)... 👻
But you know "Tyrannosaurus Rex" was also very powerful and where is he now?

Times change and I guess everyone have to adopt even the super-powerful?
