Peter might be smart, but he’s full of stupid takes

it needs a consensus algorithm but it doesn't have to be very strongly consistent, it needs to be available and singular (partition resistant). merkle dags of some flavour would go a long way towards this.

but who tf is peter todd anyway? why would i listen to him when he probably barely even understands the first principles of distributed systems?
