This article makes good points to consider when we think about blockchain. Blockchain can absolutely succeed if we can evaluate it objectively and keep the purpose of it in mind. The author is dead wrong when he says it’s ok for governments to come in and regulate it. The whole point of this new system is to reclaim what’s ours; but our job certainly isn’t finished in building the blockchain that will subvert the current system.
