In Brief: Longtime applied cryptography guru and uPort developer Pelle Braendgaard announces the upcoming release of the uPort developer Alpha! Then we take a look at tokenless blockchains and examine the fundamental confusion behind DAO projects.
uPort promises to solve the biggest problem on the internet: representing a unique human being. Existing trusted server based solutions have provided something to work with, but every person who’s suffered major identity theft can attest to their limitations. Those limitations are especially conspicuous when a blockchain interface is needed as they present a permission silo for attackers to target. Not too cool.
With uPort blockchains will finally be open to the public. Bring on 2017!
