    True, it’s not private and has too low throughput for transactions per second to be used as day-to-day currency, but something like Monero intends to solve both of those things. There are actually people accepting Monero as a day-to-day currency and living off of it, including myself.

        Fair point. There’s a good chance somebody would have come up with the idea at some point, but Satoshi was the first to do so with the blockchain, which really did change everything.
