Blockchain is a technology for a federated validation of transactions be it
bitcoin, contracts, purchases of energy. Crypto-currencies have so far
proven to be too volatile to be meaningful and is currently only useful for
speculators. Puerto Rico is vulnerable and desperate. No central bank
worthy of good governance would go with something like bitcoin.

Blockchain and crypto-currency is super hot here, read this it's very
entertaining: https://www.nytimes.com/2018/02/02/
technology/cryptocurrency-puerto-rico.html.
This is relevant for us because, if there are are technologists that can
help me, they will be attending the explosion of Meetups taking place.
Plus, I skimmed an article that mentioned using block-chains for energy,
instead of a currency it entitles the bearer to actual energy. I haven't
checked, but it makes sense too for Internet, the implications are a little
scary.
Any way, back to the regular programming
