Bitcoin's Blockchain is revolutionary for it's power to create consensus.
One lesser-known part of this consensus is Bitcoin Script, the world's first universally bug-for-bug compatible scripting language. By creating and tracking identities in the bitcoin blockchain, we can devise a system in which authentication requirements are defined by end users. This means:
- password-less, phishing-proof, and multi-signature login
- 100% verifiable software signing
- distributed systems key revocation and migration
Bitcoin Script and blockchain-based identities, open the door to huge innovation:
- decentralized DNS and PKI
- paid seeding systems (BitTorrent, Tor nodes, bitcoin nodes, etc.)
- universal, cross-system identity
For any of this to happen though, the world needs a good Bitcoin Script editor/debugger. That's what we built:
- Bitcoin Script editor. (Angular & Ionic)
- Stateless bitcoin script evaluation engine. (Typescript)
