Blockchain Issues

Hacking Scandals
Criminals Terrorists
Regulation & Bans
Blockchain is currently around 80GB – or equivalent to around 16 HD movies
- Phone: invented in 1876, regulated in 1913 (37 years later).
- Aircrafts: invented in 1903, regulated in 1938 (35 years later).
- Radio: invented in 1907, regulated in 1927 (20 years later).
- Cell phones: invented in 1965, the first FCC wireless spectrum bidding process focused on mobile data in 1989 (24 years later)
- Internet: invented in 1969, it has only become an area with intense regulatory focus in recent years, nearly 46 years after its development.
Scalability
— Can only operate 7 transactions per second
Bangladesh, Bolivia, China, Ecuador, Iceland, India, Russia, Sweden, Thailand, Vietnam
Hacking Scandals
Building resilient system constantly under open attack 24/7 (remember early Internet DNS attacks)
Mining Centralization
Centralization temporary; wide-spread at higher-scale; move to 16 nm, solar/hydro-powered chips
China has more than 50% bitcoin mining power, the largest mining
farm, fastest machines and its exchanges account for more than 50%
of bitcoin trades.
Mt. Gox, Ethereum DAO
Silk Road, drug dealers, terrorists, criminals
Blockchains are a universal technology available to all; non-criminal activity predominates
National government regulation, bans
Governments modernizing economic infrastructure with blockchains too; licensing, open dialogue
