This article is 1,231 words in length. This article's opening paragraph does not adequately explain why someone would want to use either of these technologies and how these systems provide safety and security to the user. I feel Wikipedia articles usually explain in some depth or link out to the explanation of a concept that is important in supporting the piece. The body of the piece does follow the correct format; however, I feel like there needs to be more dedicated soely to cryptocurrencies, especially if you mention them in the title of the piece. Additionally, in the use cases section, I think it could be beneficial to format the ‘Use Cases’ section as a bulleted list to help show that each line is a new item being discussed. Overall, the sources that were used of good quality, however, I think it would be best not to use the bitcoin website as a source. I did the same thing in my article and someone pointed out that they can spin the information on their website any way they would like, making it less accurate than an independent review source. Your article effectively conveyed information, but I feel it was ‘dummed down’ too much. From my brief experience with blockchain, I know that there are so many use cases that all have their own privacy, speed, and cost benefits. I feel the article could be elevated if you expanded on these comments. You were able to convey the information without compromising on neutrality of the piece, there was no personal sway that I could find in the piece. Good work! @benproe
