I think HN is one of the few places that actually applies critical thinking when it comes to crypto/web3. It can be a bit jarring if you come from a Reddit echo-chamber.
> Anyway, there is an obvious application of DNS here. We're talking about a decentralized ledger --e.g., who owns what. A ledger describes who owns what. In the case of DNS, we'd be recording who (public key/address) owns which names.
And it all falls apart because the system as described is unable to deal with mistakes nor intentional abuse.
