Elegy for Blockchain
February 06, 2023 by Elio GriecoVirtual meeting: Monday, February 6th, 2023, 7:00-9:00pm MST
We'll be doing two more virtual meetings in February as we wait for the paperwork to settle. All 3 organizations involved in bringing these events to you are having small or large staffing/structural changes.
Topic: Elegy for Blockchain
Even now, as the evidence mounts around the world that blockchain just isn't that useful for anything except ransomware, people are pushing laws for its adoption here in AZ. We'll cover some of the many broken promises of blockchain, why it could never live up to many of them in the first place due to technical limitations, and discuss the multiple forms of harm caused by blockchain, cryptocurrencies and the mania surrounding both.
This discussion was inspired by a request I received to speak about blockchain at the state capitol. I'm rather surprised that blockchain is still being legitimately considered given the events of the "crypto crash" over the past year. Hopefully we can provide clarity and put this terrible idea and technology to rest once and for all.
