        Ah, the classic “do your own research” response that I’ve heard countless times from cryptobros. If you can’t even provide an example then you should realize how that speaks volumes. As a matter of fact, I did do my own research and that is how I came to the conclusion that I did. After your lack of any examples, you then went on to list how to spot a scam because like others involved in crypto you’re speaking to the only use that blockchain has found: speculation.

            I’ll call you a cryptobro if you’re acting like one and so far you are. Cryptobros are always like “crypto is the wave of the future!” and then when asked for practical use cases they say “do your own research” because they don’t have an example or they don’t even understand the technology beyond how it could make them some money. Unless you have a better example, the only use cases I can think of are speculation and people sending money to avoid bank fees/regulations.

                Or you could’ve just said “[blockchain system] allows you to do [practical thing]” and maybe thrown in a link. Instead you’d rather type up posts crying about how you’re the victim because I asked for an example. Goodbye and have fun gambling on whatever shitcoins you’re into these days, i.e. the only practical usage of blockchain so far and, funnily enough, I was the one who brought up this practical use case.
