@neverpanic@chaos.social @bagder@mastodon.social thanks for the heads up. I didn't read very deeply. Still mad about the Linux Foundation supporting blockchain projects at any level. It's like supporting the pig butchering scam industry.

@swelljoe@mas.to @neverpanic@chaos.social @bagder@mastodon.social Blockchain isn't an industry, it's a technology. You can kill a pig with a knife, you can also use it to mince a cucumber

@swelljoe@mas.to @bagder@mastodon.social Agree on that. Blockchain is a solution looking for a problem, if not for cryptocurrencies, which have their own well-documented problems like enabling the ransomware industry.

@swelljoe@mas.to @neverpanic@chaos.social @bagder@mastodon.social I'd expect a lot of those blockchain companies to be members of the Hyperledger Foundation, which is mostly focused on non-cryptocurrency uses of blockchain technology.
