You realize bitcoin is, like, intentionally designed to get around payment controls that allow third party chokepoints to, say, prevent you from buying automatic and semiautomatic weaponshttps://twitter.com/chamath/status/967443937412567042 …

You cannot prevent digital assets from being copied, you cannot prevent people from abusing a peer-to-peer DRM system, anything that interfaces with reality becomes easier with centralized intermediaries and more complicated without

Just because a technological solution is interesting doesn’t mean it’s good for literally anything you nitwits

You have arbitrary tokens of value that function as speculative vehicles tied to sovereign currency, those are not meaningful “digital assets” with any informational value, there is nothing meaningful to “copy”https://twitter.com/thetafferboy/status/969735500343988227 …

It’s a wildly volatile speculative vehicle tied to sovereign currency that is chokepointed by a small handful of intermediaries who comply with KYC!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I could probably pull up every blog post from 2012 about what bitcoin can do and put a strike through every bulletpoint for the state of 2018

By embracing bitcoin as a vehicle for speculation over a currency qua currency you undermined any possibility of bitcoin as censorship resistant money tech you dumb shits

Don't forget the proofing of blockchain technology which is essentially means digital assets can't be copied. I'm sure that won't catch on, though. I'm sure that will have no major impact on our digital-centred future. No, siree!

I feel like this is super duper obvious, but you know that blockchain and bitcoin are not the same thing, right?

If you’re talking to me, of course, yes
I was just saying Bitcoin was the first large application that proved a great utility! -
Except Bitcoin wasn't the first big thing to use technology 'like' the blockchain - DHTs, merkelisation, host proof computing, PKI, and signature+dvcs all predate bitcoin, and have remarkably better properties wrt being distributed, fault and tamper resistant data stores.
