Need to head out the door. I'm happy to elaborate on my vision when I return.
Please do. Elaborate on your vision once you're back.
And perhaps you could actually let me know what is this post about. I've read it twice (since it's short) and I'm a bit confused.
Upvoted anyway :)
Yours, Piotr

Well first of all, it is an American thing. An American Football/Sports thing (the analogy, not the importance- that's a global concern).
Kinda lazy so here is a copy and paste from my Whaleshares reply :)
Essentially, a sports organization that marketd itself as America's team went out of its way to promote a synthetic carpet company that trademarked the name "RealGrass". This way, they could legally say that they play on real grass.
I see the same sore of thing likely to happen with Amazon's Managed Blockchain and similar centralized efforts like IBM or Fed Coin. A Real Blockchain is decentralized and its future determined by users. While carpeted playing surfaces keep shirts clean for the TV screens, they are not fields and should not be call so.
Virginia Tech is home to one of the best kept real grass fields and a 2019 Blockchain Summit where the head of the SEC scheduled as speech. Another one occurred just days ago in Malta and another is set for the west coast of the US. There is also a rumor that Bitcoin traces some of it origin to this university :)
