@josemurilo But who runs the blockchain ? Isn't it people ? So are you really trusting the blockchain, or is it the people ?
This idea makes no sense at all.
The blockchain is more subtile : than that. It brings trust in the fact that everyone agrees on a state of something. But you still need to trust people that they run the blockchain in the same way that you think it should be ran.
