Serious question on #blockchain potentials.

Is there a possibility in the future that an individual can only be represented by a single private key? I’m assuming there would still have to be some level of #KYC to keep one person from having spam accounts but… is that somewhere in the realm of possible *without KYC*?

I’m a measurable about into 🍸, so please tell me if I’m in leftfield.

I have a vague thought that as you meet ppl IRL, you can validate each other's public key (if you choose to). When you see someone with a heavily validated key (or validated by someone you trust), that would act as high trust. Theoretically with this model, you could have multiple public keys; but each would have to be validated separately. (You could validate differently: a personal key, a biz key, an agorist key, etc).

On the flip side, if your key is validated by someone considered untrustworthy, you'd lose a lot of that trust. But you could generate a new public key, and begin to work the room again. (so you're never completely out, just need to rebuild trust.)
