[QUOTE="RunePhantom, post: 10098949, member: 640451"] Admittedly for this, I looked at the largest hacks that occurred last year. The listed names were blockchain entities that were hacked and lost the money I mentioned. However, that's irrelevant to the point I'm making. The point is that the blockchain is not secure enough to be remotely usable. While I get what you're saying, some folks are damned good at counterfeiting to the point that their work is indistinguishable from the original. It's surprisingly easy to do that with data. What happens when someone posing as the real guy succeeds and defrauds you? What recourse do you have? Counterfeits are [I]currently[/I] a problem with this technology, even with people actively trying to verify their shit. It's very easy to accidentally buy a cert for something that the seller didn't actually own. Again, to the point where there are myriad guides on how to spot them. I'd like to think that if it was as impenetrable and as easily verifiable as you say, that such guides wouldn't need to exist. If it was as secure as you say, then those hacks that I mentioned from last year wouldn't have happened. At the end of the day, I simply do not see this technology being usable in any real capacity for at least the next few years, if not the foreseeable future. Which is unfortunate, as I do see the potential upsides! But the downsides are big enough that it's hard to justify the use of blockchain for just about anything. [/QUOTE]
