hello gnuS,

I’m wondering if there is any work on a gnusocial blockchain plugin?

I know about gnu projects like taler and hyperledger, but

I was thinking about gnuSocial specifically.

I don’t use the private message plugin much in our instance (artsmesh.io),

so that function could be replaced with send/receive ethereum based tokens.

Other todo’s for blockchain plugin:

1. Replace the private messaging function with blockchain wallet: send/receive.

2. Extend user/group profiles with token info: ethereum address, 

3. Other Personal tokens to watch in your wallet: contract address, name of token, token symbol, decimals).

- including your own personal token (for example jondoe.eth).

- so you can exchange tokens with people

4. So in your side bar, your avatar becomes your eth address colored icon

5. when you subscribe to users/groups, you have their eth address right there in their profile.

other ideas?
