You underestimate the bad press it could also generate. It’s not wisdom to really go down this path. As a recent example, Mozilla announced at one point that they would accept crypto donations, and the backlash was large enough they walked back on it.
I’m totally fine with say the community writing whatever crypto apps they want to host in the store for people to use. I just believe it’s best if Jolla as a company doesn’t end up alienating customers by going the crypto bro route is really all.
Also you make assumptions about someone getting “burned” by it, but my motivations are purely ethical and driven by not propping up what I consider digital gambling. If individuals other than me want to pursue it, that is their choice. I just prefer corporations to keep their hands clean of it and not actively promoting it.
