"Blockchain Panel for the Open Free Web"
summary
Panel argues blockchain rebuilds the web with concrete pieces: a protocol for self-sovereign identity that stores encrypted identity fragments on phones not servers, a Drupal-centered ICO and token called Thanks to pay contributors, and a media protocol using modified proof-of-stake plus off-chain distributed storage for scalability. Claims include returning 100% of community revenue to creators, reducing energy by avoiding proof-of-work, and real GDPR/delete complications — prototypes exist but full-scale operability and storage layers remain unsolved.
