Harry Potter and the Cryptocurrency of Stars
This compares nicely against Yudkowsky's Harry Potter fanfic, in that it's not nearly as strident and self-satisfied and arrogant.<p>That said, I have an vague high level technical understanding of btc, but none of Stellar, and I'm still left not really understanding either what Stellar seeks to achieve, or why patio11 hates btc.<p>I'm actually inclined to dislike btc, and thus felt that the Defense Against The Dark Arts Professor is not an inapt caricature. But, the TLDR I got was: Stellar is some kind of sweet currency/asset agnostic market exchange.<p>Also, btc boosters mix their metaphors/have incomplete pictures of the economy, warped by libertarianism.<p>So far, so good. But Stellar still seems… awfully opaque.
