Governance is Killing Blockchain

Summary

The promise of crypto was freedom, not more politics.

Yet another tale of drama was revealed in the blockchain world last week, this time for Sia. This is following endless infighting over the years amongst camps trying to take control the future of money — from Bitcoin debates with Roger Ver, to hardforks in Ethereum, and flat out scams in ICOs.

This was not the future we were promised. Remember the days when we pontificated about how crypto would eliminate petty human things, like pride, power, and politics? That it would make the world a better place, not just more of the same? Yet now, crypto drama is often nastier.
