The most obvious stupid scam ever conceived and they actually managed to hook a bunch of actual corporations

Square Enix, Nickelodeon, Coke, KFC, and more fell for this shit while regular people were laughing about how obvious a con it was.

Really puts into question the capitalist myth of the genius entrepreneur and the idea that these corporate types are rich because they are smart or deserving in some way.

    This is fanfiction. There’s no analysis of power, no analysis of capital, no understanding of the overwhelming problems with any blockchain technology.

    And worse it’s boring. If you’re going to be a leftist crank about some weird thing, do aliens or something

      Now hold on, block chains are totally capable of running programs. Smart contracts are a thing. This could be implemented, technically, in some fantasy world where things happen for no reason. Cranking about cryptography is cool and good.
