I DON'T UNDERSTAND WHY YOU ARE RECOMMENDING BLOCKCHAIN FOR THIS APPLICATION.
MY STAFF ARE THE EXPERTS, BUT I CAN EXPLAIN THE BASIC IDEA.
YOU SEE, USING BLOCKCHAIN IS LIKE LOSING A NECKLACE ON THE BEACH.
THEN A SEAGULL FINDS THE NECKLACE AND TAKES IT BACK TO ITS NEST.
AND WE ALL LIKE DATA SECURITY, DON'T WE?
IT'S ALMOST AS IF YOU ARE PROPOSING A PLAN YOU DON'T UNDERSTAND AT ANY LEVEL.
WELL, YES, BUT KEEP IN MIND THAT YOU WOULDN'T UNDERSTAND IT EVEN IF I COULD EXPLAIN IT.
BUT YOU'RE SURE SOMEONE ON YOUR STAFF UNDERSTANDS IT, RIGHT?
DEFINE "SURE."
