oms! I did not say either. I was saying its a better use of blockchain than crypto. Not the other way around. I actually think it is a good use but I don't want to do the research to verify my knowledge on the subject atm but it should allow for a smaller backend footprint for authorization but without rechecking I don't want to hear from someone that is like. Thats not how it works when if there is a discrepancy its just going to be in my use of particular words.
