(i) Innumerable media applications just like Odysee, X, Reddit, Zerohedge, Drudge Report, etc. powered by the same Arweave technology stack which makes them privacy focussed, customizable, and censorship resistant.

I know nothing about Odysee other than including themselves amongst those shit brands tells me they’re full of shitheads too.

  Yeah Blockchain is a massive warning flag.
  
  There are only two real use cases for Blockchain
  
  Financial speculation (very risky one, somewhat like trying time a pyramid scheme)
  
  Various types of fraud

    No, there’s one use for Blockchain. An immutable public ledger with no trusted authority
    
    That’s useful for a lot of things - just not everything (and it has been shoved plenty of places it doesn’t belong)

    Investment (very profitable if you stick to the large market caps)
    
    Decentralized finance

    validating financial transactions (in regular markets/banks/etc),
    
    ensuring data integrity (i.e. tamper-proofing) in databases,
    
    spotting people who talk out of their ass
