| What is the difference between decentralized networks and distributed networks, and where on the decentralization spectrum do you sit? | Decentralized networks are built around nodes to take decisions by themselves. Distributed networks are the sum of decentralized networks. |
| As best as you can given currently available information, please describe the value proposition of the xx network platform and how it differs from other current blockchain solutions. | Privacy is not an option but build in. So a user does not stick out when using it. Monopolization less likely due 1 node per person The value of the coin is also fixed. So the reward given to nodes is also fair. Also trading bots are less likely to interfere. |
| Privacy by Default is a goal of the xx network Platform. In your opinion, why is Privacy by Default critical for the future of the internet? | In my opinion without the choice of privacy we can be exploited |
| In your opinion, what threat, if any, do quantum computers pose toward decentralized systems? What about centralized systems? | The biggest wealth a decentralized system can give us is its credibility while keeping multiple individuals in a network. Quantum computers would destroy it really quick if they managed to achieve enough qubits. Centralized systems in other hand could be weaker, but would recover faster than decentralized systems as they have a huge support from establishment. Quantum computers are becoming a serious treat for crypto and all its attack surfaces should be hardened asap |
Good application and seems willing. Has my vote.
I like how eager. Yes.
Looks ok.
Friendly reminder: keep your word please and run your node at home.If you are planning to place it in a datacentre without GPU, it won’t work. So think about it.
