in a distributed, trustless fashion
If it's not distributed or trustless, you can do the same without the blockchain.
- namdnay 4y agoYeah, a git repo covers 99% of these pseudo-blockchain usecases
- chaxor 4y agoA git repo is a blockchain... Git is why people like blockchains so much - the value is clear, since it's what we interact with all day.
- ZiiS 4y agoGit is a Merkle tree but to be a full blockchain it would need a consensus algorithm. Clones can add diffrent commits; nothing ensures they agree.
