gollark: My main problem with cryptocurrencies is the fact that they end up needing to replicate unreasonably large amounts of data everywhere, and allocation of coins is a hard problem without any reasonably good solutions.
gollark: You obviously run into the issue of "what if the key is leaked", though.
gollark: Hypothetically you could have a cryptocurrency where only the government can issue a coin - instead of mining it (proof of work), it would just be digitally signed by a government key.

gollark: Having one organization perform an increasingly large amount of important functions never ends well.
