Ещё прежде (

стороны нравился. Теперь нравится ещё больше, ибо хорошее объяснение дали:
These domains are strongly associated with fraudulent activities and
high-risk investments which take advantage of people who are
suffering from economic hardship and growing global wealth
inequality. Few to no legitimate use-cases for this technology have
been found; instead it is mostly used for fraudulent “get rich
quick” schemes and to facilitate criminal activity, such as
ransomware, illicit trade, and sanctions evasion. These projects
often encourage large-scale energy waste and electronics waste,
which contributes to the declining health of Earth’s environment.
The presence of these projects on SourceHut exposes new victims to
these scams and is harmful to the reputation of SourceHut and its
community.
We recognize that the basic idea of a blockchain, as it were, may be
generally useful. However, most projects which market themselves
with blockchain technology are subject to the same social ills as
cryptocurrency. Consequently, we have chosen to include “blockchain”
related projects in this ban for the time being.
