What I am looking for is some basic civility. I'm just sore I didn't sell at the top. You are all a potential target for my fury at this point. Sure there'll be another top soon enough for you not to sell at ![Tongue](https://bitcointalk.org/Smileys/default/tongue.gif) Fury intensifies. ![Angry](https://bitcointalk.org/Smileys/default/angry.gif)

Someone must have tried to buy some blockchains and got confused.

Jbreher lost a lot of my respect when he tried to sell the idea that bCash was as decentralized as Bitcoin because the potential set of bCash miners was the same as the potential set of Bitcoin miners. He might as well have been selling undercoating, and he probably knew it

I was humbled by the how. Still not entirely sure about the why. But with so many people trying to blockchain all the things, something is bound to stick and be useful
I'm not sure I will ever agree on this. It's more like irrational exuberance for a piece of tech that nobody understands being trivialized into a buzzword for marketing purposes only. The fact that even after years have passed by and people are still struggling to find a proper ROI use case for it outside of Bitcoin only underscores that. Watch how irrational I make your statement just by replacing "blockchain" with a blunt but true definition/reality: "But with so many people trying to blockchain slow database all the things, something is bound to stick and be useful" And how it ever became a verb I will never know. "Do you even blockchain bro?" Nonsensical. We could use the blockchain for fraud-proof voting. One digital token per voter, an address to send it to for each party, everything public. https://techcrunch.com/2018/03/14/sierra-leone-just-ran-the-first-blockchain-based-election/"Why is this interesting? While this is little more than a proof of concept – it is not a complete voting record but instead captured a seemingly acceptable plurality of votes – it’s fascinating to see the technology be implemented in Sierra Leone, a country of about 7.4 million people. The goal ultimately is to reduce voting costs by cutting out paper ballots as well as reducing corruption in the voting process."

And now the Nazi's are gone. Someone is coordinating these troll attacks. But who, and to what purpose?

And what is the reason to tell us
Jay hits the $40,000 question. Unfortunately, Jay didn't phrase his answer in the form of a blockchain. ![Undecided](https://bitcointalk.org/Smileys/default/undecided.gif)

It's more nuanced than I thought. As usual. dunno. Maybe just even more buzzwordy. I was humbled by the how. Still not entirely sure about the why. But with so many people trying to blockchain all the things, something is bound to stick and be useful

I only care about bitcoin everything else seems insignificant
Politics makes me uneasy. I got lost somewhere between civil rights and social justice. Now I figure I'll just let the kids do their thing. Is that bad? Can I just opt out?

The Bart Simpson patters abound greatly right now...
It's a clumsy looking pattern for sure. ![](https://ip.bitcointalk.org/?u=https%3A%2F%2Fcdn.drawception.com%2Fimages%2Fpanels%2F2017%2F9-8%2Ff1Tgczzb8L-4.png&t=663&c=JqgTUoyqfgp36A)

In all honesty this why I thought you were a r0ach alt, before I knew you. Slightly too Nazi-sympathetic for me. Anyway I've learned to not be 'triggered', as the kids say. Trolls will always take the temperature of the room and play just below the line.
One thing I've observed is that the European posters are triggered a lot more easily by the neo-nazi-ist stuff. The posters who I know/suspect to be American on this thread don't seem to be bothered. Maybe there's still some collective trauma among Europeans after basically having half the continent destroyed. Or it could be that we're a bunch of Trump-voting nutjobs. Well, one of my problems has always been that I'm Canadian. I have noticed That explains a lot. I'd tell you about the time I suggested I might be supporting ISIS with my Bitcoins, got swatted at the office, lost my job and spent two days in jail. Just as an example of how on edge everybody here is. But that's too much information to share, so I'm not gonna do it
