Very normal freedom loving country as always.

Also critical support for buttcoins in this particular case, I guess.

How the fuck is involving an entire network of random computers more streamlined than anything?

Because you’d be putting contracts that would otherwise have to be checked and enforced via third party audits inside the computer system which would do that automatically.

Right now the global financial system is a bunch of interdependent smaller systems duct-taped together by sheer force of the capital invested in them and some regulatory agencies (most of which are corrupt), having it all on a well defined protocol that more or less keeps itself honest sounds like a good idea.

Also actually developing such a system wouldn’t be this huge undertaking as opposed to just using a classical database, the groundwork has already basically been done.

It at least deserves some kind of proof of concept to see if its viable on a large scale. I don’t really get the animosity against it.

Welcome to c/news! Please read the Hexbear Code of Conduct and remember… we’re all comrades here.

Rules:

-- PLEASE KEEP POST TITLES INFORMATIVE --

-- Overly editorialized titles, particularly if they link to opinion pieces, may get your post removed. --

-- All posts must include a link to their source. Screenshots are fine IF you include the link in the post body. --

-- If you are citing a twitter post as news please include not just the twitter.com in your links but also nitter.net (or another Nitter instance). There is also a Firefox extension that can redirect Twitter links to a Nitter instance: https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/libredirect/ or archive them as you would any other reactionary source using e.g. https://archive.today . Twitter screenshots still need to be sourced or they will be removed --

-- Mass tagging comm moderators across multiple posts like a broken markov chain bot will result in a comm ban--

-- Repeated consecutive posting of reactionary sources, fake news, misleading / outdated news, false alarms over ghoul deaths, and/or shitposts will result in a comm ban.--

-- Neglecting to use content warnings or NSFW when dealing with disturbing content will be removed until in compliance. Users who are consecutively reported due to failing to use content warnings or NSFW tags when commenting on or posting disturbing content will result in the user being banned. --

-- Using April 1st as an excuse to post fake headlines, like the resurrection of Kissinger while he is still fortunately dead, will result in the poster being thrown in the gamer gulag and be sentenced to play and beat trashy mobile games like 'Raid: Shadow Legends' in order to be rehabilitated back into general society. --
