We should put Hansard (transcript of parliamentary debates) on a block chain.
@JamieJBartlett who told you blockchains were cheap? Bitcoin leger is abou 2 dvd's of data & cost of storage is threatening to tear it apart

@anomalyuk I didn't say on the bitcoin blockchain? . -
@JamieJBartlett all others are smaller. -
@anomalyuk And? I'm thinking a specific block chain for Parliamentary records. -
@JamieJBartlett please, look at https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Git_(software) … and also http://github.com technical people already store everything this way -
@anomalyuk Yes I know this obviously. What's your point? -
@JamieJBartlett I'm trying to pin down what you mean by blockchain. BTC style blockchain with peer broadcasts is not cheap. -
@JamieJBartlett OTOH if you mean "they should put up a git repo of Hansard" you should say so because it's much clearer. And a good idea. -
@anomalyuk I meant create a new block chain for parliamenary records. But your suggestion also good, and with same ultimate purpose! - 2 more replies
