Title: [brainfart] VR as Blockchain visualization tool Post by: Xian01 on October 04, 2014, 08:06:43 AM Anyone ever consider writing an app to visualize blockchain connections in VR.
It can see it being a spectacular forensic tool for viewing linked addresses and transactions. In an abstract way, this game inspired the idea; https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=I7mw6O096RI (Darknet VR) </brainfart> Title: Re: [brainfart] VR as Blockchain visualization tool Post by: frankenmint on October 04, 2014, 09:45:10 AM Sounds fun, like how 3d printers are fun. Cool to have and tinker with but I cant see a practical purpose beyond being able to trace transactions - something like for an analyst capacity and also - what would be the latency? I would damn near want to have 64 Gigs of memory to have the blockchain stored onto RAM so that its easy to navigate and search through transactions.
Like for instance, I would want an app that prunes through "X" known addresses to locate all mt gox coins. This looks like a job for Danny Hamilton |
