RE: There Is A Lot Of Ignorance Out There About Crypto

It seems a lot of the people who rally against cryptocurrency are those in the traditional industries who fear how crypto can affect their jobs, businesses, etc.

I understand them, if your industry is about to be impacted by a technology you know nothing about, the usual response is to either understand this technology and know how you can use it, or flat out go against it and hope that if you scream loud enough, you can scare the technology away. The first one is a little difficult and time consuming, while the second seems like an easier task.

If they do not mention smart contracts, dapps, assets or any other coin beside bitcoin then you might want to second guess the post.

You're right about that. Most people against cryptocurrency don't realize that the currency is just a part of the technology. It's the blockchain that really matters, and the blockchain is as broad as it can get. From the financial sector to advertising and medicine, people are developing solutions and services that can solve a lot of today's issues. The currency just sweetens the pot.
