It absolutely does no such thing. Trust has nothing to do with technology and you'll never escape the need to trust real world, meatspace based institutions and humans. At the end of the day you are arguing "code is law", which is a pile of fresh horse manure, clear to anybody who saw what happened to The DAO.
Technology is created and governed by humans and you have to trust those humans. You need human meatspace based institutions in place to deal with when that trust is broken. No technology will replace this--at least in any kind of world I'd want to live in.
Satoshi's Glorious Blockchain will never succeed because it is a technological solution to a problem that can never be solved by technology.

Anecdotes are not arguments. You keep making statements, but providing no justification for them. You could say all of the things you just said about the internet in the mid 90s. And people did. And then in 2001, those people felt vindicated. But today, they look like the fools that they were.
