The whole point of having a blockchain as the core ledger of a system is to instill trust at the very heart of the application.

In our current systems, trust is assumed or granted to a 3rd party and we hope that it won’t be compromised (ahem: Equifax).

Blockchains change that and assume that trust isn’t a given, it must be verifiable.

The other day, I was trying to explain this to a potential investor and I just kind of blurted out:

“you can trust much more when blockchain is your first floor”

and we both said, “hey, that’s kind of catchy.”

So, there you go. Totally open source. Enjoy.

Happy St. Patrick’s Day.
