Hi,

Has there been any discussion about a distributed outcome database. Such a database would be a reliable measure of outcomes. For example, the closing price of the SP500 on a date could be an outcome. Or the values of a futures contract, or sports event etc.

Could Blockchain technology be used to build a verifiable distributed outcome database?

Nodes could participate and be rewarded for measuring outcomes?

Anyone thought through some of the tricky bits here?  Huh

It seems like such a piece would be quite useful.

Thanks,

Dunster
