RE: Get ready for a new technology that will enable a truly free, peer-to-peer economy far better than blockchain ever can

in #freedom7 years ago

I think the point that Leemon is getting at is that Hashgraph is a completely different algorithm / data structure than blockchain at the very foundation of the distributed ledger applications that are being built. EOS is a distributed ledger application and is therefore far more than just a blockchain. What Leemon suggests is that if these applications like EOS are modular enough, then you could swap out the blockchain algorithm at the foundation for a Hashgraph algorithm. This is already happening with Lykke. They are implementing Hashgraph at the core of their architecture as far as I'm aware. Regarding EOS, I have some separate concerns about EOS, that you can read here.

I appreciate your prompt response and insight. Do you have a good source to read more about this Lykke-Hashgraph marriage?

Looking forward to digging into your EOS concerns also. I've been high on it, but want to stay tempered and educated on both sides of the coin.

Here is the only link that I have seen on it from Lykke. I don't know anything else at this point beyond what they've described in their short summary.
