I dont understand where you guys are aiming with this... the point of being decentralized is so know one can shut it down. The only reason you wouldnt want a market place shut down us because its not quite legal. Yet not implementing anon? I dont understand your approach. Did you guys think this through? Or just get too excited about adding features?
We thought about this quite thoroughly. The goal is to replace major, centralized financial systems with decentralized, cheaper alternative infrastructures. If you think the
only point of decentralization is so no one can shut it down you should broaden your scope a bit. Its also so no one party can control the availability of certain services. Sure people
may use Syscoin to list "not quite legal" items- that is up to them and not for us to control/manage as its a p2p system. The main target is those larger systems, implementing anon natively/a system that natively encourages full anonymity would lead to never even being considered as replacements for these mainstream systems.
Developers can add anon in the form of mixing and other methods to obscure transaction origination if they so choose within Syscoin.
but if your aiming a major centralized financial systems, and aiming to replace, the blockchain will bloat in 6 months with that amount of pressure, and be instantly 100gb before you can even breathe. i don't think you guys have done the math, with millions of users and marketplaces, the blockchain will be simply to large, i know you dont want to think about it now, because once you get your BTC then the deals done, but what about the future of syscoin, do you think people want to download a 9terrabyte blockchain in 3 years filled with irrelevant unused data? like sure bitcoin is only 30gb, but thats from sending simple transactions that consist of a few bytes, with adding the feature to upload 256kb. if 4000 people try out your blockchain and upload a 256kb picture to test it, boom you have an extra 1gb on your blockchain. do that every day and times by 100 and you can see it adds up rather fast. i cant stress enough, you need to work on something to erase irrelevant old data in the blockchain, or your coin will fail, but that wont matter will it, as you will have your BTC.
there needs to be a separate chain for data and marketplace and it needs to be wiped every 6months or sooner.
