Sidechain, subchain, I'm not sure there's consensus on what either means. I like "subchain" until someone convinces me it's not a good name.
Thanks for your interest! I'm hoping this inspires a lot of cool stuff.
538 claims so far, so the total supply is 538,000,538.
Thanks for your answer. Pocket is getting stronger. Congrats!
Eh, these terms ... I guess that sidechain is an actual separate database which is somehow dependent on then main chain. While subchain is a part of the main database.
Pocket is actually a token.Or a script. Or a bot ... :)
I feel that it is somehow similar to ERC20 tokens.
By the way - when I first saw the title of your announcements I thought about this Pocket. Are you familiar with it?
No, definitely not a bot. Bots are centralized and require trust; Pocket isn't (at least not necessarily) and doesn't. That'll have to be the subject of today's blog post, to clear up that misconception. Pocket is definitely a token sub/sidechain.
That's the idea.
I hadn't heard of it. Maybe the Pocket I created will get big enough one day to worry about there being other Pockets out there. :)
