RE: Venezuela to create Oil-back National Cryptocurrency "the Petro"

in #news7 years ago

Crypto being backed by oil, gold and diamonds does make it centralized fraud. At very least it will be just like back then when paper money was backed by gold. Therefore you’re incorrect not about the outcome of the project but about its cause.

You didn't read it carefully @fingersik. You said exactly the same thing as I did, just a bit differently formulated. Thanks for the confirmation.

No not really. Its the matter of "how the precious materials will be stored" to decide whether it will be centralized, not the connection to it itself. Also when money was backed by the gold it wasnt a fraud, people just saw (and some still see) value in precicous materials.
