This could be solved with resource access requiring multiparty agreement, like the Bitcoin multisignature wallets: the location that contains the food and water for a week requires permission from 2 parties that are located in 2 separate geographical locations
- kosmos1337 8y agoApologies for the snark, but only on HN would anyone seriously suggest blockchain as a solution to having a gun pointed at your head.
- tudorconstantin 8y agoWhy would anyone assume the risk to put a gun to your head when they know you can't give them what they want just by yourself? With blockchain you can prove them that's the case. They would have to also put a gun to the head of the cosigner(s) in order to get it. I am not aware of any other mechanism similar to BTCs multisig that doesn't require a trusted third party.
