What prevents anyone from mass-generating unique identifiers?
- jbverschoor 5y agoSame is true for all private keys

- meragrin_ 5y agoHow would you mass-generate unique identifiers?
- dmitriid 5y agofor(;;) new GUID();
- meragrin_ 5y agoHow does that introduce them into the network? Is that even the format of the identifiers they use?
- dmitriid 5y agoAs for the network, it's as easy. It creates a hash of a retina on a single device with no further confirmation or verification. So al this comes down to several rather simple steps: - if the algorithm for the hash is known, generate new hashes programmatically - if not, but the hash is simple, reverse engineer/brute force the hash, generate new hashes programmatically - if not, generate synthetic retina images and feed them to the algorithm --- cut off point, and a really don't think you would need anything beyond this point for a shitty cryptocoin like worldcoin --- - if the algorithm can differentiate between flat images and "actual" retinas, for some definition of "actual", iterate through artificial eyes until they trigger the required response

- Zecc 5y agoPresumably the fact it needs be done via The Orb which is (pinky promise) tamper-proof.
