Unfortunately, the answer seems "no" so far. Based on for example [1], the infection fatality ratio appears to be 10 times worse than the seasonal flu for people aged 30-39. Also, hospitalisation rate is higher (e.g. in…
I tend to subscribe to the definitions laid out in the following article: https://blog.ethereum.org/2015/08/07/on-public-and-private-b...
The speed comes from the fact that private and consortium blockchains tend not use Proof of Work (at least not as the only algorithm; you could mix and match, if you wanted to). Instead, such blockchains tend to use…
One way to look at it is that KSI is a proof of stake blockchain where the stakeholders are (mostly) fixed. Often people would call that a private blockchain (or a consortium blockchain), to use the terminology from the…
(I work for Guardtime.) KSI verification is meant to be decentralised; that is, no single (centralised) entity should have the ability to, for example, create fake timestamps. You can deploy KSI in various ways, so…
(I work for Guardtime; I’m happy to answer any questions.) Some online resources might not make it very clear, but the KSI blockchain is indeed a blockchain; for example, new blocks are released periodically (1 block…
