Blockchain and cryptocurrencies are pretty cool from just a technology perspective. At university I studied a lot of math and cryptography and that happened to be at the same time that Bitcoin became a thing. It could have some real applications, but scammers and cryptobros ruined it for everyone and now I can’t even say I find crypto (meaning cryptography) cool without seeming like an asshat.
You’re right about that for sure. But a few TB isn’t that big a deal anymore, and if there was a need to deal with it we could come up with something… or just not use it at all. 😎
