  • I like the idea, but I don’t really feel this is scoring decentralization at all.

    Yeah,looking through this again, it really scores centralization, and also focuses way to much on ease of setup. Which honestly has nothing to do with it. If it’s super hard to setup, but every participant is hosting their own node. And producing the same amount of content. That would be max decentralization.

    I would also argue that a requirement for decentralization is that the service keeps working even if a large portion of all nodes goes down, the remaining nodes are still operational and keep delivering the value.









  • Just allow people to bring their own IDs to servers. Self sovereign IDs, or SSI for short.

    Blockchain has a usecase here, and it would be for disabling your ID in case of privkey leak, or for having people or entities strengthen or verify your pubkey or tie a hash of your birth certificate to it.

    Blockchains are great for providing reliable immutable and verifiable timestamps of data. The reason they are safe is because a lot of people have tied actual value to it, and thus most don’t want to invalidate the blockchain and destroy their value.
