2. Stimmt, 100 PoW-Blockchains à la Bitcoin sind undenkbar, aber es wird vermutlich zu einer einzelnen konvergieren. Außerdem gibt es andere Verfahren als PoW

I am not objecting to those tags. I am a big fan of custom elements. My problem with AMP is the whole concept of a certain very powerful company advocating for the use of something other than just plain good semantic HTML for something it’s completely sufficient for.
