Back in the day, new tech was dangerous.
You mishandle nitroglycerin and everything blows up for half a mile in every direction.
You mishandle nuclear and the whole country gets contaminated.
Today, we are spoiled by thinking technology is easy and has little repercussions if you get it wrong.
Bitcoin should be treated like old technology. Once you get it wrong, the cost to fix it, along with the reputational damage, is either impossible or prohibitively costly.
