Title: Introducing OpenSig digital signature technology
Post by: dnpotter on April 18, 2016, 03:05:45 PM
Hi all,

I'd like to introduce OpenSig, a new open digital signature scheme that uses the blockchain as a trusted third party store of digital signature records.  I've found existing digital signature solutions to be limiting, expensive and overly complex to use, and blockchain seems to provide the ideal platform on which to solve these problems.  The first version of an open-source command line client that uses the bitcoin blockchain was released last week for alpha testing along with a javascript developer library.  In the near future I'm aiming to release a GUI version of the client on PC, Mac and Linux followed later by Android and iOS apps.  I'd like to invite any interested users and developers to comment, test or collaborate.
