Wednesday's Weekly Discussion - Black Swan Scenario [2019-01-16]

Welcome to our Wednesday's Weekly Discussion Thread

The goal of this thread is to host a weekly debate on hot, trending and relevant topics in the cryptocurrency, blockchain and fintech industry. This week the proposed debate is "Black Swan Scenario". It'll be renewed weekly at 16:00 CET time on each Wednesday with a new topic.

  • Recent events like the "Inflation Bug" on Bitcoin, 51% attack on Ethereum Classic and delayed Constantinople upgrade on Ethereum blockchain have sounded the alarm that blockchain remains an experimental and fragile technology, still in its development phase. Let's discuss which events could lead to a Black Swan scenario, including harsher global regulation, a previously unknown vulnerability in blockchain technology, a sudden rise of quantum capable computers, 51% network attacks and others.

 


Please be respectful of one another opinions and points of view and stay on topic. Thanks for your participation!
