You recognize one word in there and because you associate it with cryptocurrency you dismiss the entire thing.

*To be fair*, it's a consistent red flag. Blockchain is theoretically interesting. Very interesting, in certain niches. But 9 times out of 10, "blockchain-based" is code for "enshittified" or "a pyramid scheme scam from the start." And in the cases where its implementation is altruistic, it's still questionably sustainable or creates considerable overhead.

Yeah, that's basic risk assessment. You can read a whole lotta stuff in a product provision but if it says "includes asbestos" you figure out pretty fast it's v likely dangerous.
