How convenient. I guess the battle never stops, does it. Just another ham-fisted attempt by "experts" to smear Bitcoin in general.
IEEE clearly have an element that writes garbage non-science/nonsense in general, they published an article a few years ago to debunk the (true) story that Bill Gates essentially stole the source code for the original MS-DOS (that turned him into the supposed wealthiest man on the planet). IEEE have no integrity, and I'm amazed that any self-respecting electronics/software professional takes them seriously. Damaged goods in the expert culture.
