> I don't think DNSChain is a feasible project. If you want to prevent MITM attacks, it's one of the only options available to you (probably the only realistic option): https://github.com/okTurtles/dnschain/blob/master/docs/Comparison.md https://github.com/okTurtles/dnschain/blob/master/docs/Compa... > However, we can reduce the scope of the problem, and just focus on forcing certificates to be public. [1] DNSChain/Blockchains already provide certificate transparency (publicly auditable log of certs issued), and they do a far better job of it than Certificate Transparency.

>DNSChain/Blockchains already provide certificate transparency (publicly auditable log of certs issued), and they do a far better job of it than Certificate Transparency. Better in what way?

    >The CT spec allows only one SCT to accompany a certificate, making this attack feasible No, it doesn't. It describes the format of multi-SCT on page 16, and it explains the rationale for this (basically all of the points you brought up) on page 32.

I see the wording wasn't very clear, so I removed the word "only" to make the meaning clearer. It now reads: "The CT spec allows one SCT to accompany a certificate, making this attack feasible" Good catch. :)
