I don&#x27;t really understand these kinds of initiatives that say they will use &quot;blockchain technology&quot;, but seem to imply that they won&#x27;t use the bitcoin blockchain.<p>It&#x27;s the amount of computing power that keeps a blockchain secure and an independent blockchain has no hope of reaching the same level of hashing as the bitcoin blockchain.<p>It&#x27;s the question of how their technology will interact with the bitcoin blockchain to leverage that hashing power that I&#x27;m interested in.<p>Or perhaps they could just be happy with a blockchain that might be (relatively) easy to attack.
