The line-up for our Bitcoin conference UNCHAIN, full of controversial speakers, has triggered some interesting discussions about the political role of cryptocurrencies. Some media have claimed that conservatives or even right-wing extremists would take on this topic. In my humble opinion, this is complete and utter nonsense.
That's what I've seen on Steemit. In late '16, some folks posted alt-right content. The ones I saw hardly got any votes; none I saw got more than pennies.
I think they got the hint.
