Without security, digital is just an illusion.

One of the main reasons our internet security is so shitty, is because no one wants to pay for security... however, everyone will pay for convenience. Making an application convenient is hard, but making it secure is even harder. But its easier to justify to investors who salivate over "convenience" and "efficiency" and such.

One thing we have to remember in crypto currency development, is that you cannot separate the network and the social element that surrounds it.

The arduous process of gaining eligibility and maintaining that eligibility for #blockchain PoA verification is, in my opinion, extremely labor intensive since it requires a plethora of state backed judicial services behind it. Reputation is far from a proper incentive.

Great #blockchain article revolving around lightning network:
"We cannot go from Trace Mayer’s sixth network effect of financialization to the seventh network effect of reserve currency status without the correct financial tools."
