OVNi and the blockchain DISCUSSIONS thread: Ethereum + IPFS + ?

[Jim Anastassiou]

I have initiated this thread for discussions only. Please list any activities for this initiative in the other thread.

[Bob Haugen]

No substantive comment. Just wanted to say I think your first two
activities are the perfect way to start this exploration.

Thanks Bob,

Like you mentioned, kicking the tires and taking it for a test drive :)

Has everyone heard the news?

Here is the result:

And here are my mining efforts using a pool:

What do you think? Will it keep climbing. Can it explode like Bitcoin did?

Who knows, maybe we won't need to look for funding soon...

[Bob Haugen]

Jim, thanks for keeping us informed on this stuff.

Smart move by Microsoft. Maybe they are getting their mojo back...

Could you please give us an interpretation of all that? What do you make of it?

[Bob Haugen]

By the way, we may soon need to conduct conversations between NRP
instances. To do so, we will need at least a two-party consensus
mechanism. We can roll our own very simple one, which I could describe
if anybody is interested. Or maybe we could use Ethereum.

If anybody has opinions on pluses and minuses, please chime in.

(I know the minus of rolling our own is that, like the guy who is his
own lawyer and therefore has an idiot for a client, it is difficult to
do well.)
