regardless of the true merit of crypto, crypto articles have the tendency to fill the HN comment sections with the most unbearable people.

It's honestly kind of amazing, I never thought a person could be so intellectually condescending and smug while trying to sell you their shit at the same time.

I'm not trying to sell anything. I don't even work in crypto and have never had a full-time job in it. I am not even talking about crypto here whatsoever. The whole point of the article IS to distinguish between "cryptocurrency" and "blockchain".
