I have a friend who works at a major bank and they use Blockchain technology to keep track of something or other internally, though I don't remember exactly what. In this case at keast we can bet that it has found a problem wirth using it to sokve. Banks are nothing if not efficient.

I find it funny that it was touted as an alternative to the current banking system and ended up being absorved into it though

A curse is a condition that bestows a disadvantage. Being black is not a curse in and of itself, but being black + being in any one of many places around the world today is definitely a curse-esque combination due to racism.

It's not ok to insult anyone. Why do you feel the need to do so, and why are you asking for permission?

More like going into a church and complaining that there are too many pedophiles.

Congratulations. I give you a 9/10 in condescension.

If you can't explain something in simple terms, that means you don't understand it yourself. Which is why you're being so needlessly aggressive and throwing accusations in the first place. It's because you have such a tenuous grasp on your own theoretical framework that you feel threatened by anyone displaying an opinion that seems to contradict it. You don't care about righting wrongs, about teaching or even about learning yourself. You only care about protecting your own fragile worldview.

To remedy this, I suggest you open yourself more to diverging opinions - not really in order to change your mind on anything in particular, but because if you only reinforce your current beliefs you'll miss the forest for the trees. You can actually learn more about your own ideology by studying others and contrasting them.

There, one simple paragraph explaining the problem in terms even a child could understand and another simple paragraph suggesting an actionable solution to that problem, all devoid of aggression and without fake quotations. This is how an adult deals with a misinformed opinion online. I hope this example serves you well in the future.

And your comment lacks anything of substance that could point me in the right direction if you were right.

It's actually a really good game, though of course it has some problems. The real issue is the fact that most people weren't even aware that it existed.

To be fair, we absolutely should outlaw at least 99% of all currently practiced forms of advertising and make it so that new forms of advertising have to be whitelisted by a panel of psychiatrists, sociologists, environmentalists and urban planners before they're allowed.

The people who make it a problem to wear the same dress twice are at fault. #NotAllWomen #NoMenAtAll

The point is that when the phrase "male privilege" is used, it carries the implication that the patriarchy is responsible. But in this particular case, women have 100% of the power to make the problem go away and men have 0%. Calling it "male privilege" is counterproductive if you actually want to solve the problem rather than just complain about it.

Another generation using the text from the I Ching as a prompt. This time it was hexagram 41 - Decreasing, with old lines in the second and sixth positions.

 
 

I made this image by prompting Flux-dev with the Image, Decision and Fifth Yao texts from the 64th hexagram (Wei Ji) in Alfred Huang's translation of the I Ching.
