------------------------------------
In order for a D-TA to take hold, its Proof-of-Existence must be evidenced
within the Blockchain itself in order to bootstrap secure connections to other
participants in the ecosystem.

>
> Trusted Authority will be in possession of a master secret
> They will be required to issue cryptographic part-secrets (shares of Milagro
> Tokens), and to protect their own part-secrets. They will be completely law
> abiding within their own individual jurisdictions. They will be expected to
> be open and transparent, and to have a reputation for honesty.
> Distributed Trust Authorities (D-TAs) - Distributed Trust Authorities are
> services run by the stakeholders in a Milagro partition which issue Milagro
> Tokens to People, Apps or Things who petition to obtain them. Distributed
> Trust Authorities may run their own IdPs, or outsource entirely this function.
