Taylor Pearson’s “The Blockchain Man”

Summary

A summary and opinion piece by Bardia Pourvakil @ Blockgeeks

I read a thought-provoking essay last year called “The Blockchain Man” by Taylor Pearson. It was published on ribbonfarm, which hosts some of my favourite long-form written pieces on the internet. In it, Pearson describes the Blockchain Man archetype as a successor to the Organization Man, a term coined by William Whyte in 1956. I will do my best to summarize and expand upon his original work.
