not really.. he's implying that the LHC has some scientific benefit, whereas cyrto-currenies don't

however, this 'processing issue' is only a problem if the processing does nothing.. which i personally highly doubt

if the processing was, for example, curing cancer or something.. becomes a mute point almost immediately
