Cryptocurrency and blockchain are not going to be stopped. Each day, on the technology sites that I visit, there is at least one (usually many) stories on blockchain. These are not cryptocurrency sites but mainstream tech sites....the next step will be a regular visitor on the business/investing pages.
You are right, the FUD is ridiculous. Take a look at what is going on and one quickly sees development all over the place.
We need more uses cases like Steemit that people use the technology without thinking about the complexity behind the hood.
Very true. The complexity of crypto is a hindrance on top of everything else.
It is like the internet in the early days...people were scared of the technology because it was confusing...they heard of this thing called the Internet but werent sure how it worked or how to learn about it. It seemed overwhelming.
We need to simplify it.
