      "What's that, Patrick?" It's a hash of a short text file to prove that I had the information in the text file no later than the timestamp of this tweet, because I feel like bragging in the future if I'm right on this. "Is that blockchain?" *sigh* No, that is not blockchain.

          I don't know if I'd go that far; hashes on Twitter doesn't create a self-organizing boiler room to enrich myself and other early adopters at the expense of retail while inserting indirection layers to avoid prosecution for securities fraud.

          you must prove that the content behind that hash doesn't include the older hash in the quoted tweet; otherwise it's definitely blockchain

          But the real question is if the text is *about* blockchain…
