People are lured by easy money, without understanding the privacy implications of signing up for the block chain.
People need to stop calling these things cryptocurrency. They have almost none of the properties of cryptocurrencies, such as premissionless transactions and pseudonymous wallets
What is their approach to biometrics with blockchain? Do they just dump your data on the blockchain for everyone to see, like Bitcoin? You would assume it is at least hashed.
Or is it encrypted so that only someone with the corresponding key can use it to prove your identiy? In this scenario they couldn’t verify your identity without your consent. But also then you would always have your key with you at all times, so I doubt they went this route.
It’s probably just hashed and public, is it?

Realistically, I works be tempted at $5,000. I’m not sure I’d do it at that price, but it would get me thinking about it.
