    Yeah Blockchain is a massive warning flag.

    There are only two real use cases for Blockchain

    1. Financial speculation (very risky one, somewhat like trying to time a pyramid scheme)
    2. Various types of fraud

      No, there’s one use for Blockchain. An immutable public ledger with no trusted authority

      That’s useful for a lot of things - just not everything (and it has been shoved plenty of places it doesn’t belong)

      AKA

      1. Investment (very profitable if you stick to the large market caps and avoid obvious trash like Odysee/NFTs/shitcoins)
      2. Decentralized finance

      1. validating financial transactions (in regular markets/banks/etc),
      2. ensuring data integrity (i.e. tamper-proofing) in databases,
      3. spotting people who talk out of their ass
