Yuck, blockchain.


Nostr is not blockchain

Why don't people get educated first before having an opinion?

Blockchain isn't the only technology that lets you use a public/private keypair to identify and authenticate, you know.


Lol, yes, "distributed" means blockchain.

Someone should cancel Torvalds for building git on a blockchain. Clearly a scam!


do you have any actual thoughts against web3 or is it just your bête noire?


Bitcoin is a true innovation

Web3 is a scam. There's nothing there. It's all completely centralized, rife with insider premines and intellectually dishonest snake oil gimmicks. Silicon valley start ups issuing shares on a blockchain to escape from silicon valley regulations.


Slow, expensive, complex, immature.


...

So every single early computer innovation then?


Yeah innovation is known for being terrible in most aspects...

Or do you simply mean early tech? Because if so there are strong reasons to wait for things to mature before using them for common use-cases.
