Maybe it got flagged because it's an abomination of an article. Did you even read the damn thing? The author has no authority to speak on the subject seeing as he does not even recognize the work many crypto projects are doing to help the unbanked and solve energy consumption (PoS vs PoW).

Crypto fills a niche, it's the cash of the internet providing an unregulated unrestricted ability to transfer value.

A number of the negative points in the article could have been said about regular fiat currency.

This article is a one sided brain fart by someone who knows nothing about the subject they are writing about.

The article brings up a lot of points, and whether they hold up to scrutiny should be dealt with in the comments, not by flagging the article.
The article gets flagged when the commenting becomes a flame war, much like this post is becoming with people flagging and down voting based on emotion.

Case in point why crypto doesn't belong here, too many people getting too emotionally attached to their ideas to have a civil coversation.

Please downvote and flag more things you dislike for personal reasons.
