Thanks for picking that up! I agree with you, we are exploring allowing law professionals join to become professional mediators and of course be compensated for their services. The mediators could be spread around the world and they can eve

We are aware of the price volatility issue, this problem is widespread in all of crypto. There are ways around this issue this issue. We are currently only doing fixed price contracts. However, it is possible to create other types of contra

This is an example contract proposal. Contractors must login to place a bid on this contract with their public key. Real contracts on the application have very thorough proposals. This is just a proof of concept.

Currently, Bitcoin has been operating fine for almost a decade and with a massive bounty for anyone that can break its system. Technically you can still build a lot with Bitcoin's limited scripting language. The lightning network being

This application doesn't make the current legal system obsolete! I don't envision anyone using Stochastic to do a multi-million dollar contract at least for the foreseeable future! We are not doing an ICO, we are not even holding

You are correct! Technically every Bitcoin transaction is a smart contract, the language of the contract is Bitcoin Script (Forth-like, stack-based language, https://en.bitcoin.it/wiki/Script ). Currently, we are only u

We are also exploring to let the contractor and project owner decide who the mediator is. Our goal is to make tools and services around Bitcoin that showcase some of it's features. There is more to Bitcoin than just HODL and trading.

I remember back in early 2000s getting premium satellite tv for free was as easy as just installing a firmware on your STB. Eventually, the encryption got too hard and expensive to crack, so regular hackers stopped working on firmwares.
