Nice. Will now read about "no rentiers". I'm curious about the consensus use cases. Most of my interest is around authenticity. Provenance, verifiability, identity, and so forth. Ian Goodfellow articulated my own hunches, beliefs about this: Detecting fraud, fakes, lies is a non-starter. Authenticity has to be out of band. So sign your works, and then record it on some trusted blockchain.

There's apparently still a giant cohort who utterly reject authenticity. Even as opt-in. Because something something Freedom Speeches™. I intend to learn about the consensus stuff. Like you seem to already grok. That's clearly a necessary enabler for authenticity use cases.
