@danhon For me, it's not just the word "distributed." It's also that Dorsey is a big crypto booster, and Graber's background is in blockchain engineering, and the protocol is built on a lot of overlapping and compatible features, and designed for extension into other App Views.

They've been pretty insistent on not calling it a blockchain or cryptocurrency technology, but I wouldn't bet money on it staying that way.

@lritter @lrhodes @danhon yeah. Paul Frazee is basically redoing dat/hypercore here with a kind of "here's what I wish we'd done differently" approach

@darius @lritter @lrhodes @danhon imho at protocol has nothing to do with dat/hypercore at all and never had.

paul pfrazee also never designed or built anything in the dat stack.

all pfrazee did was using the dat stack to build a browser woth mang features on top and then abandoned it because he got a lot of pressure from his conservative family to earn money.

dat stack continued before during and after him.

you can now even stage and release apps via dat stack.

@darius @lritter @lrhodes @danhon he never really worked on dat protocol so this statement can't hold water.

Maybe they want to market it this way but paul was simply building beaker on top of dat protocol which was and still is mainly developed by mathias buus aka mafintosh
