mircea_popescu: well kako is more than welcome to fork it or w/e if he likes the code. tech decision.
mircea_popescu: the other one is that they don't maintain the records.

mircea_popescu: fluffypony it's missing two key ingredients, the most important one being - done by people i trust.
mircea_popescu: i'm not checking some random site i never heard about fwiw.
mircea_popescu: or they could have joined assets a year or so ago. either way.
mircea_popescu: well, it's definitely the blockchain-friendliest approach, seeing as only a hash is stored in the first place. moreover, i don't see how nonspendable tx helps anything other than pruning
