sn0wmonster: i've been trying to find the perfect
WoT system to include into #Taskhive for a while now and i was under the impression that#bitcoin-otc simply
decentralized would suffice,

decentralized and based on
WoT. For example asciilifeform might meet you in person and vouch that you are whom you say you are, and that your identity number is: 31231610

ThickAsThieves: <herbijudlestoids> except the entire thing is stored on some server --- recently ive been preaching need for a
decentralized wot
