I fully accept that I need to do more research into the matter, but at the same time, it seems to me that this move is somewhat dangerous, even with the limited information I may have at the moment. I mean, let's face it, one of the things that crypto has to fight is the bad reputation, and the alignment so to speak with Bittorrent might not be "the move" to help the situation.
But as it happens sometimes, I would like to be wrong here and see this direction workout for the best. I may be showing my age, dropping my wallet as they say, but this stigma that we are fighting pretty much reminds me of the early days of the internet.
In the 90's when I was participating of MIRC for example, going to meet someone you had met online was seen as acting suicidal or something. You are gonna do what? - But today, its normal, people even get married after meeting online, and to the new generations this is so normalized the very idea that the "internet is evil" is just funny, but I remember those days.
So maybe, my concern that now crypto will be closely linked with piracy is valid but only temporarily so, if that makes any sense at all. The specifics on how this new token will work are not clear at the moment, but I suspect something akin to a paywall is probably going to be built. You hold tokens, you get higher bandwidth, premium services, so on and so forth. If this is the case, a wallet containing a lot of tokens could be seen as a "pirate's wallet"... maybe. Do you see where I'm coming from?
Again, maybe this is going to work out awesome, maybe the tokens will "moon" as they say, and the aidrops will be welcomed by the different communities too. At any rate, it probably matters little for us Americans since we are being skipped for obvious reasons.
After all, Tron may be one of those long term winners.... it just may...
