I just don´t understand why people prefer to criticize a thing they don´t understand, there is so many ways to say that you don´t understand this technology without making a fool of himself.
This "experts" are ridiculous, some know what they are talking about and want to protect the old system to secure their profits... and some have no idea what's the objective of the crypto world. Eventually cases like this happen.
Just a big problem with 'assumption of knowledge'... unless they're malicious and deceptive of course.
But just assuming 'well I know this technology and how this works, so this can't be that much different'. Next thing you know, you're agreeing to write a guest column in the Washington Times on a topic you've spent approximately 5 hours researching.
At least its easy to spot :)
