A proof-of-work blockchain for "binary transparency" and "data transparency" #71

Closed mahdi-ln closed 1 year ago

mahdi-ln commented 1 year ago

I was thinking of an international proof-of-work blockchain for "binary transparency" and "data transparency". (data/content-transparency can be used in decentralized web projects like ZeroNet) In proof-of-work blockchain, can remain immune to split-view-attack because client can independently verify the difficulty of the blockchain so it can assure it is seeing an international powerful blockchain. Who pays for Miners? While writing to this blockchain can be free they can also be a donation wallet used for rewarding miners. Those you care not to become victim of split-view attack can donate to this wallet.

Notes: 1.I'm not expert 2.it can be in combination of your multi-signature approach

I don't think we need such a blockchain.
