I don't get the use case properly. Is it the trust issue? How can a distributed voting system fix it? And also, wouldn't that require a lot of processing power?
- kromem 9y agoIt's basically what Secure Scuttlebutt is doing. Basically, if you have a cryptographic write only log of social activity, and can exchange that with others, you can create social activity/interactions that are only readable by your social graph (as it should be), and not by third parties/providers. It's a really, really neat concept (in the vein of the awesome stuff happening with distributed cryptographic consensus in general), and simply needs easier entry points for mass adoption.
