Autonomous Geometric Vaults

I've think I've figured out a method to hide data in a location in #cyberspace

The only way to decrypt it is to use PoW to move through cyberspace to the location where the data is hidden.

Once you arrive, the data is unlocked. But not before. And observers can't unlock it without producing the requisite PoW.

The basic idea is to execute the secret's wasm blob with your action chain history as the argument. By accumulating your vector towards the secret location, you reach a threshold that proves you have arrived. If valid and in the secret's defined radius, the wasm will spit out the decryption key for the secret.

Multiple radiuses could be stacked to create a gradually resolving 3D model as you get closer. Or the data could be anything else.

This is really cool because it now allows people to put things into cyberspace that can ONLY be accessed through cyberspace. There are no shortcuts. No meta-analysis. Trying to decompile the wasm will take more work than following the rules.

If it works, then that means you can also hide data in physical locations in the real world, as cyberspace overlays our entire planet.

Now I have to build a prototype/demo.

I'm still hoping for input from someone more qualified than I, but I think this could work.

Ideas that didn't work:

- higher dimensional traversal over non-euclidean spaces

- weak encryption breaking

- Homomorphic vector accumulator

- path-dependent hash

- merkle consolidation

- binary power map
