Title: Bitcoin meets the Semantic Web....
Post by: melvster on April 01, 2013, 07:53:56 AM
I'm working on porting crypto currencies to the semantic web.

The advantages of this is that pages can then become machine readable on the web allowing new types of innovation and spreading bitcoin information to a wider audience.

The first step that needs to be done is to create a "vocabulary" for bitcoin.

What this means is like a dictionary of terms that can be put down in a machine readable standard (called RDF).

I was wondering if anyone has worked on this before or if there is a human readable "glossary" for bitcoin that I could take text from?

This is a great idea. There's a URI scheme.

How is semantic web implemented? Is it RDF? It's been a while since I looked at it.

Awesome, thanks.

@aantonop  Yes, RDF is the recommended description framework, currently.
