RE: Some thoughts on Hive and its future

in #hivefest7 days ago (edited)

We have a real world use case. Many of us use it every day. The value is in the ability to publish immutable content. What if Hive was wikileaks? - And no one could take it down?

it doesn't have to be leaks or diplomatic cables, but it can be independent journalism that can't change - only have a follow up story published - an actual - y'know - chain of events.

There's a threat there, that lots of people don't really usually want to talk about, the way bitcoin knots is coming about - what about if the chain is abused for bad content?

Sort:  

Well, there is stuff on chain, that is bad, real bad, will not get into details, but a witness here, who signs a block of bad stuff, is liable or not?

Interesting one - but that would mean we are a media platform of free journalists, not a blogging or social platform anymore - not sure if we are ready for that one - and immutable content oh well (is that not something every other of the 1000s of chains promise in theory, nothing as USP - if internet is out and witness are gone the chain is still dead and when the prize gets lower i even would assume some will stop their witness service as well.

Our shit posts can commingle with journalism, art, sports, podcasts, and everything else. Hive can be all, all at once. The good thing about it is its a platform, and people's imaginations and ambitions are the only limitations.
