Full Title or Meme

Block Chain will solve all problems, provided you have the energy of a small sun available to power it.

Context

The technology for Block Chain itself has been around for at least 20 years. It was even commercialized by Bellcore

Problems

  • The current problem that many architects are fixated on solving relate to the concentration of user information in a small number of very large companies.
  • There are some efforts to reduce the power consumption. If those work, it looks like the solution will just be some other trust framework, but with a different name. For example the proposal of Hardjono et al.[1] goes to a resilient system like the internet, which is, of necessity, single rooted even though nearly all components can work independantly for a time, just as the internet itself functions today.
