Nouriel Roubini: Blockchain’s biggest troll strikes again

Nouriel Roubini really needs to learn some new lines…

Speaking during a panel at the Blockchain Economic Forum in Davos this week, “the number one blockchain critic” (his words, not ours) said that the technology is “no better than an Excel spreadsheet or a database”. Oh, yeah, it’s also  “the most overhyped technology ever”.

Yawn. If this all sounds a bit familiar, then click here.

I mean, c’mon, Nouriel, how difficult is it to think of new insults? Here’s some one liners for your consideration: “Blockchain is no better than a chocolate tea pot”. “Blockchain is the biggest load of rubbish since Alexandra Burke got to number one by murdering Hallelujah”.

You’re welcome, Nouriel.
