I understand HN is a shit-on-crypto echo chamber but it's naive to think crypto is just settlement.
Settlement is simply a low-level primitive. With smart contracts, you can build whatever mechanism you want before making something final. Multisig, clawbacks, timed-delays, time-locks, escrow, recovery wallets, etc.
