Title: Could end of net neutrality kill Bitcoin ?
Post by: Fact on November 30, 2017, 08:46:59 PM

What does the end of net neutrality mean for cryptocurrencies like Bitcoin?

As Marvin Ammori, lawyer for the advocacy group Fight for the Future told Motherboard:

The average person goes to Coinbase to buy Bitcoin, Ethereum, or Litecoin—the average on-ramp is an exchange, and those are easy to block. If Comcast is the monopoly provider in an area, the provider could decide there’s a preferred Bitcoin exchange.

Let’s break this down. From this statement alone — which is strictly hypothetical at this point — we can already spot a mountain of problems for Bitcoin, Ethereum, and countless others.
