RE: The Crypto "it’s Kind of Like..." Competition
Referring to Blockchain:
It's kind of like sending a group text that you can't edit or delete. When you send it, everyone gets a copy and regardless of who sends the message everyone has the same record of the conversation. So it would basically be impossible to get rid of that history if it were a group text with millions of recipients.
good analogy... if getting rid of the message from everyone else's accounts wasn't exactly what Facebook did with all messages sent by their CEO at one point X/
Glad that can't happen here on steemit :)
But, FB's villainy aside, it's a pretty good analogy !
now that I think about it, it means it's even MORE secure than group messages ;)
Thank you @midlet for a winning submission! We'll be publishing your analogy next week on the @creativecrypto account with custom illustrations.
Yay! Awesome! Thanks @sndbox!
