Very interesting approach to the subject.

Personally, I believe that research and development should be handled in the way Uber and now Steemit are doing it.

Head strong and straight to the market.

Unfortunately, due to poor management, Uber was a little bit of a failure.. but it allowed Lyft to enter the market, as well as food transportation of the likes of Foodora, Uber Eats etc etc.

I've always been a fan of Elon Musk's approach to competition.. He believes that societal growth outweighs profits..

Keeping that in mind, Maybe Uber did succeed in our society, even though it failed on the Market.

Interesting to have a non-crypto discussion on such a heavily dominated forum.
