Yeah, the irony is that I’m sure you could do some sort of blockchain-based DRM that didn’t need a centralized server. Does such a thing exist? Patent pending…
It would be possible, I considered implementing such a proof of concept years ago for fun (when blockchain was not exclusively cryptocurrencies). But then I remembered I don’t like DRM so I never released anything about it.
The problem is that game sellers would need to be able to add games to the blockchain so that they can be traded. But how do you implement a trusted entity in a trustless decentralized system?
