RE: Dark matter signals at CERN’s Large Hadron Collider

I hope this could convince you we don't want to store thousands of files like that on chain

no, we do, its called eosio and telos. you store them on amazon or whatever or local servers, and amazon can be replaced by telos Dstor.cloud its better than hive but based on dpos eosio which is based on steem so its related to hive

youll see

not everything is limited by hive

blockchains in future cheaper and easier than tyhe dinosaur storage ur talkin about

and yeah you need not just the data on chain but i said THE LAB EQUIPMENT should be custom made by ledger and lab pro :D

I do not know what telos or eosio are (I have no time to check out now). But please check what is the Worldwide LHC Computing Grid. I do not think any other option would work to replace this.

I don't understand the above sentence. Do you mind clarifying?

imagine if all the lab equipment that collects data has hardware blockchain ledger chips so you cant tampor with it is what i mean

like UN weapons inspectors style

so science cant be faked

eos is the thing teh steem / hive creator @dan larimer made for smart contracts and telos is an eosio chain liek a sister fork sorta, but not a fork

telos very science friendly we could get science funded using telos grants and proposals instead of the federal government one day

ooooh whata revolutionary idea i know lol

As I said, blockchains are useful, but they cannot solve any problem. I still keep to my words. I do not see what is the advantage of a chain compared with other methods.

For many scientific experimental devices (this is the relevant part when data taking is at stake), dedicated (centralised) infrastructures are often more suitable. For instance, for the LHC, see here. If you take Virgo/Ligo (gravitational waves), data is released 1.5 years after being taken so that anyone can use it and check it (see here).

Those are two examples I have in mind. For anything else that is not particle-physics-related, I of course cannot tell.
