The Transparency of Block Chains

There's something to be said for the transparency of block chains as a utility and also as something that drives people crazy, right? Like, we've had this argument on this polcast a few times related to payments. The only circles where i've seen this really turn into like, a bloodthirsty issue have been circles whereby there is a rivalrousness going right? It doesn't like the idea of a kind of tradeable, inter oferable assets.
