thats the best consolidated broad definition of a blockchain I've heard. Do you mind if I use it? Should we also include elliptic curve signatures?

- brighton36 11y agoIt's a terrible definition. There's no mention of pow, which was the innovation of Bitcoin, and that which secures the network
- DennisP 11y agoSome kind of public key signature seems essential, doesn't necessarily have to be elliptic curves. There's already talk about using post-quantum algorithms. But verifying the signature is part of the validation algorithm, so "validated transactions" already covers it.
