Wait…how come #P2P group chats don’t work, but the #Blockchain works? Aren’t #blockchain nodes connected through #P2P methods?
@realcaseyrollins I think the only true decentralized blockchains are Monero and Bitcoin Cash. Regular Bitcoin goes through some centralized "lightening network".
@xianc78 The transactions aren’t verified using various nodes on the network?

@realcaseyrollins Okay, it isn't actually completely centralized, but the large block sizes make running nodes only practical by large institutions like universities and corporations, making it more centralized than something like Monero or Bitcoin Cash which uses smaller block sizes.
@xianc78 Well, my point is why can’t a #P2P chat apps use custom blockchains for group chats, with each member of that chat serving as a node in the blockchain?
