- monk_cactus 4y agoHmm yea ok. What do you mean by completeness? Timestamping seems like the most difficult of those to solve
- legutierr 4y agoCompleteness in the sense that you know if you are missing any messages that have already been sent. If all messages are logged on the blockchain, then you can see which ones you never received. Verifying completeness requires a blockchain of one type or another, where new transactions/messages reference a hash of past transactions/messages in some way.
