    Well, just the fact that it’s 100% transparent is a step forward compared to the stock exchange as it is at the moment and otherwise your comment also applies to the stock exchange as it is working now…

          Wasn’t the space ship in Niven’s Ringworld series both literally indestructible and transparent? There’s no way I’m going back to check because Niven is one of those authors I realized decades after reading him was a dirty old man.
