Why the Collapsing of the ‘Crypto Infrastructure’ Is Good News
Let the greedy jerks rethink their love of what could’ve been a great technology
The bill for the last top-shelf, crypto-sponsored party I attended was footed by the Tron people in San Francisco a few months before COVID shut the world down.
