Facebook could act in a way that shows others the value of distributed ledgers and how crypto works, but is Facebook the entity that you want to trust to carry that flag? Not for me.
Story one about Fidelity and energy issues was certainly of interest, but just like your Facebook story sounded like a reinvention of BAT, the energy story reminded me of the lost potential from Envion. They were going to use solar energy to mine. All looked so good until one (at least one) bad actor brought all to a screaming halt.
