thats why people keep saying it
it just isnt different enough to say that frequently occurring new problems that were introduced by the concept discredit the entire concept. ATMs never solved skimming, lets write an article about user or bank losses every day about that and pretend it doesn't work well most of the time for most people just because you dont see articles about that and never use it yourself, silly idea right? It still works fine. Analogies compare dissimilar things with at least one similarity, in this case its an introduced problem that isnt solved but didnt change the course of its existence. Same for debit/credit card payment processing over the internet, lots of fraud, whether the user experience of reversal occurs or not, the problem isnt solved and the course isnt changed.
People seem to say this every time one of these big crypto companies fails, yet itβs just plainly false. Tons of people put money into these companies and are left holding the bag when things inevitably collapse. At what point do we run out of rugs to pull and just agree the whole thing was a mistake?
