Many things are exciting about Blockstack including the fact that it is fully operational today. But also that it has been designed from the ground up with the capabilities that we would and should expect from such a system, including:
- name lookups on a decentralized naming system
name registrations and transfers without centralized registrars
automatic binding of names to owning cryptographic keypairs
automatic cache invalidation
immunity to DNS cache poisoning
robust certificate pinning capabilities
resistance to censorship of name registration and resolution
Bit by bit a whole blockchain system comes to life these days.
