Hi @Hyena, thanks for coming up with this nice idea. I have some comments :
To date I am not aware of any decent crypto-distributed discussion software. Bitmessage, which is widely used and one of the most advanced known to date, is still terrible. I cannot imagine having even 1/10th of the discussions I am having here, with a tool such as BM.
While I think that long term communication can happen smoothly on a blockchain-based tool, I still think we need years and millions of dollars to get there.
For now I am more in favour of integration between existing tools and cryptographic technology, not sure if
blockchain is the right tool for the job.
Congrats, that looks super cool!

I do not undertand why this would be needed in a first place. Is there any example of online/offline democratic communities where shareholders are publicly showing their equity? I do not see a board meeting where people advertise their equity, however, their shares weight in the voting process, just like Nu.
I am pretty much against showing the amount of shares owned by a shareholder during a discussion. The amount should only be weighted at the final time, aka voting. The point of view expressed by a 10NSR holder should be evaluated with the same respect of a 10MIL NSR holder during the discussion phase.
On the other hand, to prevent trolling, it would be useful to have a way to cryptographically prove one’s stake in the project. For instance by granting a badge, also here on discuss, showing that at the time of writing Miss Xyz owned at least … say, 10K NSR . I have no idea where to put the threshold.
This can be a very useful option, however, this particular discussion group seems to be almost immune for spam and pretty much manageable.
If we start seeing “spam” we could always create a category (for instance to propose grant or motions) behind a paywall ,or better, a parkwall . Park 10 NBT are required to post here
