#Bitcoin Q&A: "Blockchain, not Bitcoin"
Why is the “blockchain, not Bitcoin” line of thinking wrong? What is the purpose of blockchains? Can blockchains or special purpose cryptocurrencies be used for debt and credit systems? Will the role of fiat be reduced to this?
These questions were part of the monthly live Patreon Q&A session on March 31st and the (rescheduled) April session on May 5th. If you want early-access to talks and a chance to participate in the monthly live Q&As with Andreas, become a patron: https://www.patreon.com/aantonop
