Title: boards and localbitcoins on Bitmessage platform Post by: Valerian77 on October 10, 2013, 01:53:38 PM Hi all
since the breakdown of bitcointalk.org we know how easy it is to attack the community on central services. It was a good sign that no serious implication has been on the market (even not the SR shutdown ;D ). But on the other side we have also the experience from Bitcoin itself how much better distributed, trustless systems work. Therefor I suggest two applications to be created: 1. distributed discussion board system based on the Bitmessage platform and protocol 2. distributed market place for for coins also based on the technology of Bitmessage With these kind of services nobody would be able to shutdown or interrupt the community anymore. What is your opinion - anybody there to create a paper ?
