      Well, I’m saying Circulor is most likely lying about their “blockchain” actually being a blockchain, or that they’ve pointlessly set up extra nodes to perform redundant work in order to avoid technically lying.

      Blockchain is completely pointless without 3rd parties being part of the network. It’s like me saying I run a personal social network for just myself.

        It must be exhausting being so cynical.

      Buzz words. It doesn’t matter if it’s true, as long as it sells. See, you remembered, so it worked.
