Thank you, great comment, excellent points.
I'm not discussing here nation-state certificate ledgers vs my small miserable blockchain, but instead an instance of a federated (say, XMPP) network server vs blockchain based solution. From my point of view, on this level, it provides more security and, what is more important , incentives to run such a thing.
- jerf 8y agoA blockchain-based solution to what, though? Bearing in mind the XMPP network exists now, and works. (It may not be "winning", but it works.) What is even the problem? Though I will concede your point slightly; if XMPP needs some more Hype Juice to win, I can't deny "but on a blockchain!" could help there. Kinda not being sarcastic here.

As an additional benefit, blockchain is indeed more secure to run than an ejabberd instance. I understand your irony with "Hype Juice" etc. But in the end, good software is that which people use, right?
