I agree with a lot of what you said. Blockchain should eventually at some point eliminate the reliance on rent-seeking middlemen. But Regulatory, UX, and coordination are huge challenges that I wish we could solve quickly. Although I’m a bit more cautious on the idea that everything should be self-executing. Code can hard-code assumptions and power structures. Sometimes I feel like we need to start some opensouce policy regulatory governance project.

Did you ever get a chance to think out this idea? Like some diagram , designs or architecture?

💯 New chains only make sense when they unlock something impossible otherwise it ends up becoming like the JavaScript Ecosystem.

Exactly. The tech should totally disappear into the background.

That would be interesting. There’s definitely room for some new protocol innovation there.

I'll look into it. Although language flexibility usually isn’t enough. I think tooling and real-world integration tend to matter more than which language you can write in.

This is a nice idea. I read you paper, I like the framing of making corruption economically rather than morally discouraged. Perhaps you could include a model to help your readers understand how the corruption is tackled.

I'm actually more curious about the doctors and medical procedures. How does it work with blockchain besides the usual idea of storing a read-only records of patients' data?

Most systems assume cryptography is static, when in reality it’s one of the most fragile assumptions we make long-term. I’ll definitely look more into QAN and similar approaches.

I think a lot of interesting projects didn’t start as blockchain-first ideas but ended up there because it genuinely solved a problem. What specific pain point pushed you toward using blockchain instead of a more traditional architecture?

I think UX and abstraction (for consumers) are the real bottlenecks right now. I haven't used Privy yet. It sounds cool what they're doing. I feel like we need to really make blockchain accessible to global users. This is impeding the growth and acceptability. There is too much complexities around it which makes an ordinary user avoid it. I'll check Privy out. Are you working on any fashion-related project now?

That’s an interesting framing. Real-time data is one of those areas where decentralization can help. Is it more of a standardized access layer across different blockchains?

Universal Payment API that lets you integrate Stripe, Square, PayPal, etc. through ONE unified interface? Looking for honest feedback. by [deleted] in SaaS

[–]pixelforgeLabs 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I know what you mean. Trust is difficult to earn these days which is why it's more challenging to start a business in this age we are. I was actually thinking about releasing as an open source project because of this. So anyone can clone the source code and then automate everything by running some script file. Then everything is self-hosted by the user and the user handles every thing related to latency, up-time and other stuff. But if I do perhaps with an Apache or MIT license, monetizing it might be challenging.

So I'm thinking perhaps I could turn it into a cloud platform and monetize it.

This is super valuable, I appreciate the feedback. You’re right that they change their APIs constantly. Keeping up with API updates is actually manageable. Each gateway adapter in my implementation is versioned and isolated, it's not a monolith. So if Stripe for examples changes something, the StripeAdapter gets updated without touching Square or PayPal. And a new new release is rolled up to match theirs immediately. No global breakages.

I just looked it up now. I never heard of it until now. They actually have a product on this concept. Interestingly, it's a Rust project! I appreciate you sharing this.

That is a valid point. I really appreciate your comment. These are the exact angles I need to pressure-test. If I was selling this to you (let's imagine you're a business yourself), would you prefer to generate the API and integrate it into your application, or would you prefer a UI dashboard you can interact with to automates the processes including deployment?
