The thing is - how will your blockchain-based mortgage be enforced? What happens if I start squatting on your blockchain-property? At the end of the day, the answer is "people with guns" - we agree that contracts have legal weight, and there are legal structures (and ultimately law enforcement and their threat of force) that keep you on your land and me out of it.

And yeah, some time no-lifing a game or two

I desperately want to be using more of the whitespace on either side of the comment column.
Ilse Gort is one of my favorite recent Magic artists - I have a few of her artist proofs and she's done some great sketches for me on the backs.
