    Why would you need a bLoCkcHaiN/tOkEn for this, instead of a plain old database?

      Presumably because a plain old database requires trust in a centralized authority, and a blockchain database does not. Hopefully infineo is open sourcing their tech and doing things the right way, and not just creating yet another ScamCoin.

        (1) I’m pretty sure this idea requires a central real guy making the final decisions (who decides who’s eligible?), not to mention all the government controls. Adding a tOkEn on top of this mess is ridiculous and pretty clearly a scam? (2) Only bitcoin’s bLoCkcHaIn database is decentralized, for a plethora of different reasons.
