Reply to comment by Shibenaut in Crypto and blockchain are not the technology of the future – prove me wrong. by Aquillyne

Freedom is another one of those abstract advantages that will never trump the real advantage of safety. Yes you are free and that’s a principle you can enjoy. Zero recourse when something goes wrong: that’s a reality people will detest. Which will be the more powerful force? I argue that the freedom you mention will never trump the safety of centralised fiat (and other related benefits) for the average person.

Inflation is inherent to the economic world order it’s nothing to do with whether we are using crypto or fiat. Crypto inflates and deflates like crazy bananas anyway, so don’t really see your point there!
