RE: Blockchain UTXO Model is a Dead End for General Purpose Applications

in #blockchain8 years ago

I didn't understand a lot of this article. This is by far your most challenging article I've read. I'll need to re-read a couple of times and do some research to try to see what I can get from it. Same for it's follow up. Thanks!

I kind of agree with you, for those who are not software architects and engineers, all the detailed explanations can be quite hard to 100% understand. The way everything is written is pretty much how I would like to see it though, since it tries to bring forward all the complex architecture stuff in not too much of engineering language.

The high level reasons why UTXO is not good for certain type of applications, and why Bitshares and Steem doesn't have that problem is however quite clearly explained, at least for me, but I'm used to talk with software architects, that helps I think.

Maybe it is just sufficient to know the result, the conclusion. Depends of course what you want to do with it. I for sure do not want to start discussing this topic with architects, but I may discuss this with lesser technical people, business people, financial people and with such information you will be seen as an expert in their eyes, so they start listening to you.
