I wonder - is there a way to keep the data open to certain users, but closed to the public eye for privacy purposes? Can a frontend be designed this way? This is a key point for me to figure out.
I would think with encryption it is possible. Encrypt the data on chain so that it is not legible to the public. Could also mess with custom JSONs which might be a way to integrate it in.
No smart contract at the base layer of Hive and we will not have them. There will be ones built on spk and vsc. How they interact with the chain can be written into the contract I presume.
I see, that's useful info. If I understand correctly, basically, using a specific frontend can hide data from the public if it's written into a smart contract. Thanks!
Lol, point taken. I still have to build my own ideas first. It's an entirely different view of what can be done using Hive's blockchain...!
That is true. It is a different realm.
To me it starts with the idea of an open database. that is what the core of the system is. That opens up a lot of potential.

Excellent. This is essential. Would this feasible with a smart contract applied on the base layer of the blockchain?
