A few months ago, I was speaking at a Blockchain Meetup of over 500 attendees in Toronto. Several speakers remarked that living in the Blockchain space was like being in 1985 during the Internet’s early days.

One could argue that even some of the popular narratives and explanations of Blockchain are somewhat dated and may even be misleading.
