>"Cryptocurrencies are essentially neither money nor a financial product, but an example of what Nobel laureate Robert Shiller calls a 'contagious narrative': a contagious story in which people believe because other people believe in it."

How does this impact large orchestras? Some of these musicians have got to be (way) over 10 m apart. Even 10 m at the speed of sound is almost 30 ms.
