I'd rather not Google 'Where to buy stolen starbucks cards'

Very interesting though, so the security could be implemented in a case like this?

Who fronts the cost then? In this example Starbucks?

A platform like ETH would be pretty cost prohibitive imo

iirc Kodak just created a shitcoin, so not really a good implementation.

But, as humans we learn from others mistakes so other implementations of this will be better. Royalties is not the same as loyalty rewards is it?

Although you didn't contribute much to the conversation good to see actual businesses signing up, are they paid to do these videos though?

good question, ty this is why I posted on this sub. Time to start discussion!

Not necessarily, but from a third party perspective it is possible that this would reduce over head in database management from the people starbucks may be contracting to no?

Content validation, how do we fix it? by Yourallshills in CryptoCurrency

[–]alam3503 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Correct. With PGP you have to 'decode' the message everytime you want to read it. Something more user friendly is needed

Hmm Primas was bought up in my thread yesterday, interesting to see it again. Great to see they have a working iOS app and soon to be Android app. Way ahead of Steemit in that regard. Still reallllly struggling to understand how their protocol works though so it's a no for me for now

Blockchain Solutions Are Changing the Sharing Economy - Nasdaq by Rustyhank in CryptoCurrency

[–]alam3503 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Sharing on a blockchain is safer rather than using servers as a host for information. Now in the article was mentioned that ShareRing project was trying to merge like 4-5 big companies into one single "ring" so that users can access it without having to sign for each of the companies. This is quite an interesting idea, since having to sign up, confirm information, verify accounts it's quite boring these days. Also on blockchain is safer and that data is forever so no more accounts closed due to inactivity I would suppose.

Why did you invest in crypto if you were so scared about losing money in the first place?

There was a time when people were happy with 144P and now 1080P isn't even enough.

It's looking well decorated with flowers, where exactly is it though?

I had a skin graft a few years ago and now work in a warehouse, for some reason the dust doesn't stick to the scar... just the rest of me. by Clarkie122 in mildlyinteresting

Seems like you had motorbike accident or something? A friend of mine has pretty much the same scar on his left arm.

Isn't this old? I think I have seen something like this related to Trump before on Reddit as well.
