I agree that blockchain is yet another black swan much like the internet has been too. How to you propose that the blockchain be secured as it is absolutely dependent upon electricity, hardware, telecommunication platforms, corporations and governments to keep it running and available? Would the people be able to re-establish the infrastructure should that infrastructure be attacked by the very organizations that currently built it? Would the crazy people do something to shut it all down should they feel that their control has been lost? I think they would try. Despite the fact that the Internet was designed to withstand a thermo-nuclear war, it would still be devastating if they turn off the switch and watched everyone perish because we forgot to take care of the basics first - self sufficiency for all our basic physical needs. Any thoughts on these vulnerabilities?
