The underlying data is on a merkle tree with each verifiable claim, signature and all. |
|
|
|
The chain includes individual IDs for discovery & visibility, so not all data is distributed -- yet. |
|
|
|
The goal is to eventually distribute the data on people's devices with their chosen network, |
|
|
|
where anyone could host their own chain of provenance if they choose. |
|
|
|
The formats follow standard schemas (eg. schema.org) to encourage interoperability. |
|
|
|
We're currently at the beginning phase where we're trusting the server to keep IDs private. |
|
|
|
It's all open-source, and we expect to have a professional audit someday. |

A person's network of contacts is similar: the server currently knows some of the links between people |

|
to allow discovery and visibility. However, even that will be manageable on personal devices someday. |

There are no tokens to maintain the chain: the purpose is to create software that communities |

and activists can easily join and use. We're betting that this is a case where network |
|
|
|
participants have the motivation to run the software. The protocol is meant to be lightweight enough that |
|
|
|
non-technical people can run it on inexpensive devices they already own. There may be cases for |
|
|
|
MPC or ZKP in the future when they are more widespread and standard, |

over those "black-magic" functions. |
