RE: A Token on the Steem Blockchain!!!
Data isn’t stored in a single storage point called custom_json, each custom_json transaction has its own custom_json storage. But yes, there will be a lot of transactions using custom_json already. In fact, SteemMonsters also uses custom_json to store its data and it has thousands of daily transactions, and last I saw about 3 custom_json transactions per second.
Essentially we are navigating towards soft consensus using mechanisms like Scuttlebut I feel ... ! ( https://github.com/ssbc/ssb-db )
Yep, it has a similar API and ideas behind it but except for being directly P2P it runs on Steem! Running on Steem gives verifiability and proof that a transaction has happened, something which Scuttlebut lacks.
Only if there is an interface like steemd.com where people can verify whether the transaction has happened. Now, steemd.com is not the best interface for common man to verify the transactions. We need better interfaces too if we need to get more people using the chain. I am pulling my hair to see how to use the chain for use cases similar to this one : https://www.ichangemycity.com
Yeah, generally it would be verified by running one of the nodes for your project, but you are right that better block explorers are needed. Maybe check out steemblockexplorer.com?
