But there is a very easy way to prove that there are not contracts external to the blockchain.
That's the whole point of an audit.
And it's very telling that they don't want their books audited, but repeatedly point to a clearly incomplete (from the perspective of someone who is concerned that the business might go under) as proof of solvency.
- throwup 4y agoYou have a point, but I think you're underestimating how "very easy" of a process an audit is. It's a mountain of time-consuming work for everyone involved. Their audits are encompassing more and more each time. They've talked about wanting to go public, at which point they would need to disclose everything quarterly, so I think it's likely they'll work their way up to your standards one day. But even if I'm wrong, if you keep your keys to yourself, none of this matters.
