RE: Legal Identity vs Crypto Identity
Interesting and thought-provoking. I think it would be extraordinary if we could enforce one account per person through cryptography while at the same time, allowing the person to remain anonymous! RESTEEMED
Why would you enforce 1 account/person? It makes no sense.
You have to work on each account separately to raise it's reputation level. And having multiple identities is great if you want to compartimentalize parts of your life that you don't want to be public.
Like if you have a professor, who is a well known inventor and intellectual. But in another identity he is a political activist. Would he want his 2 identities linked? I don't think so. But why should he not be able to compartimentalize himself?
I am not saying that everybody should live a schitzophrenic life, what I am saying is that this can help journalists and activists stay under the radar.
I was thinking of a system like steemit where new accounts would come with incentives and so allowing multiple accounts per person can lead to a state of unfairness per se.
