Title: [2014-08-05] Bitcoin grows up with Blocksign Post by: pbtc on August 12, 2014, 05:20:10 PM Upstart Business Journal:
Bitcoin grows up with Blocksign, a non-currency product to verify signatures http://upstart.bizjournals.com/entrepreneurs/hot-shots/2014/08/05/bitcoin-grows-up-with-blocksign-a-non-currency.html?page=all It is a lite PR piece on a potentially interesting application. Given btc core developers' attitude against this sort of thing, though, it is too bad he didn't implement on top of the namecoin blockchain. "The man who helped SEC accredited investors prove their status with a special digital badge is at it again, this time, with a signature product built directly on the bitcoin infrastructure. Nicholas Thorne, who co-founded and is the CEO of Basno, the smart badge company, today launched Blocksign, part of what signifies the next phase of bitcoin’s development beyond just a disruptor of the financial market." -pbtc |
