There needs to be a disincentive for posting… like that the coins are destroyed. So you mine for the ability to post, and you post by spending your coins. Kinda like Namecoin.So this means that there’s no way to “transfer coins around” except by transferring the private keys around, but that’s fine.
I think this could totally work. I’m going to think about it more.
[/quote]Mining for publishing (on the blockchain) rights. Sounds good.
Off on another tangent … why do we have to have external marketplaces to sell things with crypto?
Why can’t a blockchain exist as a huge marketplace and users shop via the client (using a search of the blockchain for specific items/topics). Load up the client, type in “music”, find a song, send xx BTC/LTC/FTC (whatever it requires) to address, receive song, ebook, movie once transaction is confirmed … all automatically. Why do we need an escrow service? If the money is received and verified in the blockchain then and only then is the file sent to the user and once it’s received and verified by the blockchain we’re all good.
Or am I way off here on the capabilities available?
