Ironically I guess, your bank has been keeping your account balance as an append only ledger since literally the introduction of banking. That the word 'decentralised' is tacked onto the idea is really a red herring.

In reality it solves far more than that for the average system for the average user. No on in reality is having their mobile number socially engineered to get into startup xs system. It's a good place to start until you are at a scale

That's just an argument ignoring the realities of scale. In any reasonable system the number of tokens that need to be held in blacklist until seen will be tiny in comparison to active sessions.

Absolutely. The obsession with trying to turn every part of software engineering into something you can generalise and framework on the frontend is the cause of our current woes. In the post Flash days I was accepting of pushing JS use as f
