But in terms of prints, I guess that Invader one has to be the biggest. Can’t think of anything else.
You mean the most advanced mode of payment that will replace fiat currency will need to be printed on a piece of paper and kept in a safe so that no one can hack it?
Nobody is referring to currency here... we are talking blockchain tech. I suggest doing about 20 mins of googling so you don't sound stupid. Especially when I specifically said that the currency part is a toss up :pint:

The tech behind crypto is where the breakthrough is... the resulting 'currency' will eventually be an afterthought. But that's only one opinion in a sea of opinions.
this is pretty much my thought on it. I've been following it for a while, but I am too chicken fudge to get into it. :D

Gonna be fun reading the transaction on rat feces percentage when scanning your sausage.

Killer app sounds like it's supply chain transparency here, but aside from edge cases, it's still mostly transparent to the consumer, who except in an emergency isn't gonna bother reading the name and birthdate of the pig they're eating.

Until AI starts creating cryptography from scratch I'll always go with what my dad told me a long time ago: "If a human built it, a human can unbuild it".

I usually agree, but not when it comes to this. I still haven't seen one case of a Ledger being hacked... because it's impossible. At least as of right now.

Not trying to turn this thread into trying to educate people on crpyto though, so I'll leave it at that, lol.

There are at least 5 or 6 people here who won and that's only from the posts I remember. I am actually very surprised how many here pulled it off.
