The other distributed version control systems are all blockchains too, yes?
I find the term "distributed ledger" more interesting, as I store the accounts for my unincorporated server cooperative in GNU ledger format, controlled redundantly in git (for my colleagues) and fossil (for me). This distributed ledger is private, 2.4mb in size (including many other files, such as copies of invoices), and portable. If my colleagues would use fossil instead of git, the history would be immutable. I appreciate the possibility to store far more complex information than is convenient in Bitcoin, but if I were to restrict the information to what is stored in Bitcoin, I could represent a transaction history in something like one-tenth the space that it would take up in Bitcoin. Fossil is far superior to Bitcoin for situations where you can weakly trust the other people who are editing your ledger. _______________________________________________ fossil-users mailing list fossil-users@lists.fossil-scm.org http://lists.fossil-scm.org:8080/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/fossil-users
