This post ties in with this post by OP where there is talk of Julian Assange possibly maybe doing an art collaboration with @muratpak.
If so, this could be a very big deal... or it could be nothing.
It has long been suggested that Assange had copies of the original blackmail material used to keep world leaders in check. With the invention of Deepfake it can be argued that any videos that do emerge are just deepfakes.
However if Assange managed to get hold of them and uploaded them to a blockchain somewhere in an encrypted form, that upload will also have date and time stamps within the blockchain that can't be faked and that could prove that they were uploaded before the invention of Deepfake, meaning they are real videos and are a real problem for some very important people.
Just some speculation, but blockchain makes it entirely possible to store images and even video within a blockchain. Add some encryption to that video/image, and it would be impossible to find them without a key and the exact address in the blockchain to find them.
Very very interesting stuff, OP.
Hi,
Yes that is my thought exactly and I’m looking into it, so far, yes there are images in the block chain.
