@Epic_Null@infosec.exchange The world has moved blockchain technology way past its original concept of public cyrptocurrency.
Private blockchain is a well-understood concept being implemented in many different industries.
Decentralization and blockchains -- public and private -- are used to eliminate a single point of failure when building an immutable ledger.
An immutable ledger has many applications outside of cryptocurrency.

@poller@infosec.exchange Bold claims, but... I haven't seen anything to back up that blockchain is a good idea privately, nor did I see anything on the page you linked to that actually makes the argument for your claims.
If anything, I have seen blockchain as an expensive replacement for existing technologiee that suddenly presents problems when you run into edge cases only a few inchew from the common case.
If you're gonna convince me it 1. Is actually useful, and 2. Belongs in an authentication system, you're gonna need to actually defend the claims, noy just state them.
And no, I did not miss that you focused on the comment I had where I was like "alright... fair" and ignored the bigger issue - the link doesn't shoew me anything useful or relevant to the discussion!
