<njoseph>Can somebody point me to the article/whitepaper which describes the implementation of a blockchain or cryptocurrency using Object Capabilities? I think cwebber posted about it on Mastodon years ago.
<njoseph>I had no idea what Goblins are until I watched the recent Doctor Who Christmas Special. :-|
<cwebber>hi!
<cwebber>njoseph: well, there are a lot of interpretations of "goblins"
<cwebber> https://tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pmwiki.php/Main/OurGoblinsAreDifferent
<cwebber>the previous project I ran even had very different goblins than Spritely's :) https://mediagoblin.org/
<cwebber>so don't assume Dr. Who's "goblins" are ours
<cwebber>:)
<cwebber>regardless
<cwebber>you're probably talking about Agoric's stuff
<cwebber>njoseph: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=YXUqfgdDbr8 probably is the best talk
<cwebber>or at least, I thought so
<cwebber>it's very deep-dive'y in some ways but provides interesting ideas about what Agoric's vision for blockchain (and non-blockchain) based ocaps are, and how they work together
