So... If you released some open source software and then inscribed the binary hash of the software on #btc, could future users always compare the hash of software they download to that immutable hash on chain? instead of having to download the sha256 checksum file from the same source and then try and confirm pgp key validity out of band?

Could make source file verification easier and perfectly immutable.

Assuming you know which inscription it is and that you trust the source of the inscription

Thanks, I talked about it with reardencode on twitter a bit and it seems like it may just not be that useful of an idea.. No real gain from the existing methodologies. Appreciate the response!

You'd have to inscribe on every release to keep the hash relevant.
