big dick chad investor here, need to know if this "atomic swap/blockchain interoperability makes oracles useless" fud holds any water.
Seems to me that this would only be the useful if every company had their own blockchain that would simply swap with other chains for data needed in smart contracts instead of using an oracle. This just adds another layer of complexity for no reason imo and not close to being actualized yet

Unironic brainlet answer, you will be marked for extermination
Look at the IT and CS world, lots of tools fulfill different needs despite meeting similar goals. Who needs what and how much will they need it are better questions.

I strain to see many companies using blockchain in the near future. Work in back office in large law firm, we still use software from 1998, shit looks like the original roller coaster tycoon for god's sake.
Save for possibly some logistics company where supply chain is untrustworthy, even then I don't know how a blockchain solves your problems, like are you worried UPS is going to manipulate their database saying that that you really didn't receive your iphone?
I think alot of the innovation will actually work itself up through companies not the other way around. Small groups of people experimenting and having fun with governance/betting etc that actually starts spreading to other domains. Think linux
It doesn't. Usually I'd elaborate but I'm sure this is another faggy namelarp thread in the making.

At least I'm making an effort, tired of sifting through the shit that is biz, the good nuggets becoming rarer and rarer

When the lawyer can do away with all bookkeeping related expenses by implementing a smart contract / blockchain based system, he will upgrade because it will save him tens of thousands of dollars per year

Deluded posts like this just show how many people haven't worked in the real world
How non standardized everything is, complexity of contracts, how stubborn people are at changing, how worried managers are about giving up an ounce because the risk of something going wrong
Agreed. Some people have some very linear style thinking. Sad.

Checked but I am an IT consultant and implement ERP / PSA software for different industries including lawyers offices and I can see the light at the end of the tunnel with projects like Link.
