Did you read what I wrote or you are just too angry to do so?
The problem are not just few #blockchain based scams.
Nor the rich illegal market of violent oppression based on it (drugs, weapons, pedo-pornography...)
The blockchain itself is a math-washed large-scale scam-factory!
Even just because there is ALWAYS a better technical solution to every single application of it (except for scams, obviously).
Above I listed several reasons why a lot of "otherwise smart people" don't like this bandwagon.
But there are many many others...
Yet I have to admit that between 2016 and 2019 the blockchain had a very effective and green application, unmatched by any other out there.
You were able to discards tons of low quality candidates for a #developer #job with a simple script looking for few keywords in the resume: #blockchain, #cryptocurrency, #SmartContract, #Ethereum and so forth.
By looking for those keywords you were able to discard a lot of people who were either incompetent or unethical.
Unfortunately after mid 2019 these keywords begun to disappear from the resumes.
I've spotted tens of candidates who resubmitted their #resume after a while WITHOUT any reference to the blockchain.
Last year I interviewed two of them and asked (resumes at hand) why they removed any reference to the blockchain.
One replied "I realised my company was a scaming people and quit".
The other replied something like "you know, these days a past in crypto can be a liability for your carreer".
