Jürgen Geuter (a.k.a "tante") is a stern critic of cryptocurrencies in general and a rather well-known public speaker. Back in 2021 he wrote a long article titled "The Third Web", which provides a comprehensive synopsis of criticism of cryptocurrencies, the third web and many aspects related to those topics.
I consider this article to be a very interesting read and agree with some of his statements. However, I strongly disagree with a lot of his technological criticism which prompted me to write a rather lengthy reply that can be found here.
I spent a lot of time writing that reply and put a lot of effort into researching sources backing up my statements. I was very eager to engage in a real conversation with tante but his only reply was that he "didn't feel compelled to answer".
Even though his initial article and my reply are already more than a year old (which is, of course, an eternity in anything related to technology), I would still like to present this exchange here. Hopefully, it might spur a real debate one day. Thank you very much for reading.
