RE: HoloChain / Alternative to the Blockchain?

in #blockchain • 5 years ago

Hello @fucho80 i only got to know about holochain through this post of yours and from the little that i have gathered from your post the individual nodes of a holochain run seperately and can even validate transactions that are broadcast unto the network without the approval from all the other nodes. Do you think this is safe as some unhonest nodes can harm the network? Or is there a feature that safeguards against this.

Best regards,

    Hello appreciated @ikkelins,

    I'm not sure there is a feature that has protection over this. In fact one of the deficiencies of HoloChain according to my research is security. HoloChain has improvements in terms of transaction speed but security is not the best, however it is to highlight the advances in this system.

    The centralization of HoloChain in computer data also has a disadvantage. Indicates reduced security. However, this does not mean that the HoloChain team has not implemented any security features. Each chain in the HoloChain will have a security measure called DNA. This DNA will record the complete life cycle of the data and a signature will verify each step involved in the life cycle. This data will be stored in the local chain in a scenario like a Facebook state where the data does not need any verification.

    Particularly I think that if the creators of this project want it to be successful, one of the things that should improve is security, obviously if that is possible, if there is any way to improve security while maintaining the speed of transaction and other innovative features with respect to the blockchain then this is the future.

    On the other hand, the purpose of this article is to generate a discussion about a little known technology, to obtain more knowledge about it and thus determine if it is convenient to use it or not.

    Thank you for your valuable comment, for your support and for joining this discussion.

        It's nothing, we're trying to learn from this too.
