15. And assigning power based on a long history of user edits means that the "governing class" necessarily changes slowly. Comparing this with many token-voting schemes, Wikipedia's mechanism is therefore less subject to the “hostile takeovers” that some blokchain networks fear.

2. Progress on decentralized storage as well as resurgence of p2p protocols gave us confidence that the timing is right. Today a lot more people are interested in re-decentralizing the web, concerned by the growth of internet monopolies.

@cryptoversus There are key differences between the two projects. The main one is that oscoin is primarily focused on providing an infrastructure for code hosting & collaboration (ie what you trust today Github for, but p2p & decentralized). Then use it to enable new forms of incentivization
