> Your point is that centralized financial services on sqlite is good, decentralized protocols on a blockchain is bad?

Where exactly in this comment did I say that: https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=33606218?

> If that is your point, it's a funny one to make in a thread about a CEX collapsing.

What's funny is inventing arguments for other people and valiantly fighting against them.

"Smart contracts" were mentioned as "other uses of crypto currency, as yet unaddressed". I addressed them. I couldn't even care less how you made the illogical leap from that to whatever you accuse me of.

Uniswap is a good application of smart contracts. Your comments explicitly suggest that Uniswap would be better run on something like sqlite, which needs a centralized owner, which is functionally the same as replacing a DEX with a CEX.

> in every single case would be more efficient and better served by Visual Basic running on a single Raspberry Pi from a sqlite database

Funny how out of 8 points listed, all you've latched onto a single one.

Let me rewrite this on point in a single sentence "this ineffecient unenforceable bug-ridden fest that can only use the imaginary tokens can be run more efficiently from a single Raspberry Pi".

Does this help?

I'm not sure you are replying in good faith.

But, you are still making the claim that a decentralized smart contract protocol would be better replaced with a centralized traditional database on a Raspberry Pi. We disagree.

Come on. You started with assigning me arguments and thoughts I never said and thought.

> you are still making the claim that a decentralized smart contract protocol would be better replaced with a centralized traditional database on a Raspberry Pi.

A person who claims that their opponent makes arguments in bad faith ignores everything their opponent says and keeps pretending their opponent said something he didn't.

There are eight bullet points. Read them. Understand them. However, I'm not going to continue this conversation.
