I just started this to get some basic structure down.

Aim

I have decided to start from a base such as ethereum and work to adapt it to what I need. I think by doing this I will either create a solution or gain a much better understanding of the problems which would allow me to create my own solution from the ground up.

Possible starting points

• swarm.city
• alastria
• various DAOs
• ethereum
• bitcoin

The governance of a blockchain can be split into four main components

Stakeholders

• Main Authority e.g., govt
• Other Participants
  • Agriculture
    • Large Corporations
    • Small/Family owned
  • Food-Manufacturing
  • Retail/Marketing
  • Shipping?

Who operates the nodes?

Direct: Stakeholders who interact with the blockchain Indirect: Stakeholders who are affected by but do not interact with the blockchain

Things to consider:

• Should small and large business have equal weight in the vote?
• Will small businesses be able to set up the required infrastructure?
  • What is the required infrastructure — I think they just use a website/app to upload information

Process for Change

Can/Should we use a system similar to EIPs/BIPs?
