I think the future is neither permissioned nor non-permissioned simply ledgers, but rather the former using the later to prove honesty.
One flaw with @ofnumbers's reasoning re: miners is that being able to go anonymous if attacked discourages attack.http://www.ofnumbers.com/2015/04/26/what-has-been-the-reaction-to-permissioned-distributed-ledgers/ …

@petertoddbtc But reversibility through attack of non-permissioned ledgers is one reason for permissioned validators in the first place. -
.
@codedlogic Permissioned and non-permissioned ledgers are attackable but type of attacks are different; using both can be defense in depth. -
@petertoddbtc Interesting point. Any specific proposals? -
@codedlogic Soon™ (seriously, sitting down with a writer friend this week to do a whitepaper if all goes well) -
@petertoddbtc Excellent! Will read if/when public.

@petertoddbtc i would agree with you on that point. perhaps i worded that part improperly. -
@ofnumbers@petertoddbtc Tim, I took you to mean that KYM already is semi-common, maybe I misread. -
@compleatang@petertoddbtc sure, yea it is common. i dont fully understand why they would continue this practice today though, due 2 attacks - End of conversation
