Hello Bertrand, thanks for your reply, this is very interesting. Is this
technology accessible for middle size companies? Is it patented? My goal
being to provide a popular and decentralized technology, I'd like to
know if it can avoid technological centralization and pauperization.

Thanks again!

Camille.
