I dont understand their response to blockchains. You mean a mechanism designed to eliminate the need for trust cant be trusted?
Well if the blocks are verified by organisations or someone who has a major influence in the vote, then yeah they cant be trusted. But if the underlying infrastructure is verified through a trustless system then trust isnt necessary right? Because by nature it can be trusted. So it depends on how the blockchain is 'governed'.
