Thanks for sharing your thoughts on this. I do realize that there is no intrinsic connection between the two technology. They are too very separate concepts solving different problems. However, they seem to share quite a few principles such as decentralisation, enhanced security, transparency etc. One cant help but feel that somewhere down the line, the open source revolution did play a hand at inspiring the creation of blockchain. At least that is what the focus of the article is. I hope I was able to convey my point more clearly.
Then I would argue that you might be considering 'convergent evolution' in technological systems, where different platforms tend to the same values because those values are the ones that make better systems, and in super competitive envoriments like open source, all technologies tend to that.
I think these 2 concepts as center pieces of a observation of the 'evolution' of technological systems with analogies to natural selection, and which principles would be convergent in the future would be a super interesting read.

Thank you for your insights. You have certainly given me a lot to think about. I will talk about convergent evolution in the article.
