When cryptocurrency comes to depend on all the trust anchors of the fiat monetary system, the naive reimplementation will be feature-complete.


Like upgrading from a tube radio to a feature-equivalent SDR implementation, nothing will have changed.

Except that having achieved feature parity, we'll then be in a position to consider new features which may not have been possible on the previous architecture.


>the naive reimplementation will be feature-complete

I don't think crypto people have a great handle on economics along those lines. "We artificially limited the supply so it can only go up; what's money velocity?"
