Indeed an open source browser that anyone can bot doesn't mix well with the idea of paying people to just watch something... crypto currencies work because they don't rely on trust. This is precisely the opposite of that. The whole idea is fucked on premise right off the bat.

Of course, Ethereum users snap it up at ICO within a single block for something like $33 million. There's way too much stupidity in that market at the moment.




It would be true, but someone like Brendan Eich mush be onto something, right? He can't risk all his reputation for just 33M?


Unless he's going to give everyone new computers which are locked down at the hardware level such that we can't clone and emulate them, there's really nothing he can do. This idea is doomed, plain and simple.
