      The explosion in stolen artwork being minted as NFTs just demonstrates how ridiculous the idea of "the blockchain" as a revolution in "verification and data integrity" always was It doesn't solve that problem AT ALL

      Guess what, this idea that the biggest problem with false information is people sneaking onto a server and altering an existing database without telling anyone was always incredibly stupid That is an extremely tunnel-vision-nerd view of what the problem is

      Christ the errors and misinformation and fraud you see isn't a result of people "hacking the database" It happens when people MAKE THE DATABASE It's a result of the way information GETS ADDED TO THE DATABASE IN THE FIRST PLACE

      NO ONE CARES ABOUT THE DATABASE "GETTING HACKED", THAT WAS ALWAYS THE EASIEST PROBLEM TO SOLVE THE IDEA THAT A CENTRALIZED SERVER "GETTING HACKED" IS THE BIGGEST PROBLEM PEOPLE HAVE TODAY IS STUPID PARANOID NERD BULLSHIT

      All this shit like Amazon saying they're going to put inventory "on the blockchain" and that will stop discrepancies Discrepancies almost never occur AFTER data entry, they occur when someone with a clipboard enters data about the physical cargo into the computer to start with

      When I worked retail, our biggest source of "shrinkage" was stuff not scanning out properly, so the system flagged it as stolen when it was purchased. Blockchain wouldn't fix that at all, it'd actually make it worse because you couldn't easily manually fix things properly later.

      The idea that it's a GOOD THING for something to be impossible to alter once you type it into the computer (no chargebacks on Bitcoin transactions, no takebacks on Ethereum smart contracts) is one of the most obviously awful ideas crypto geeks try to make into a selling point

      From an accounting point of view it makes sense. Accountants would much rather you make a second entry correcting the mistake than be able to erase the evidence that the mistake was made.
