Intel sees potential opportunities in copyright protection using timestamps.
"Blockchain technology is used to document and verify attributes of digital content that are relevant to copyright protection. Such attributes may include, for instance, an identifier for the author of the content, a timestamp to indicate when the content was created, and a measurement that can subsequently be used to detect copying or modification of the content."
Will some kind moderator please move this thread to Don't Askaboutmoney.I'm going to post any interesting articles or use cases here that I come across. Post the link to your source if possible and please refrain from discussing Crypto price speculation as I want to focus on the use case and technology side of things here.

Think about how this could be used if you were abroad and you had a Medical emergency and the hospital could get instant access to your entire medical history.....could save your life!
Here is Elizabeth Stark from Lightening Labs that I mentioned elsewhere. She talks for 15mins. Im not sure if I follow everything she says but common sense would suggest that she at least knows what she is talking about.
So between her and Paul Krugman, when it comes to blockchain and cryptos, im inclined to pay more attention to her.
But thats just my take.
Even more so now that lots more people are more mobile in their jobs, moving to different countries and cities. I can see how this would be very useful for a lot of people.
Currently lightning network does not have a routing algo that can guarantee your transaction can complete
Do you think this issue will be overcome Gus or is it too big a problem to crack? I am not a software engineer so have no clue about the inner technical details of this but I would have faith in the engineers working towards a solution
I am not 100% sure. I have liquidated 30% of my btc into bch monero and zcash for this reason early in the year when it became apparent that the scaling debate was over and the forever 1mb people had won.
Routing is a very complex problem (that bitcoin does not have) but that is introduced by lightning. It could work if we had mega hubs with million of channels but this would mean a government could disrupt everything by taking down one or 2 of them
Hi Gus1970. I have an interest in tech but i'm not a technologist per se. Can you clarify why Lighnting Network won't offer a solution to the scaling problem in laymans terms?I am afraid in this case i will have to disagree with you. Currently lightning network does not have a routing algo that can guarantee your transaction can complete.
Despite his prediction, Thiel did not express complete confidence in bitcoin, and speculated that there is a 50 to 80 percent chance that it will have no value in the future. Nonetheless, he also noted that on the flip side, there is a 20 to 50 percent chance that it will increase in value.
"Probability weighted, it's good," he told CNBC.
Hard to argue with a Billionaire who has a track record in fintech!
