. I'm really hoping we can get a good conversation going about identity and reputation systems or decentralized autonomous organizations or how to earn money by renting out your hard drive.
Offtopic: (shameless plug) renting out your harddrive can already be done with Peercoin. Buy Peercoins and get 1% interest a year with mining PoS blocks with your client and hard drive.
Cool. How does it work? Is this something I can start doing today?
Offtopic:
Yes, you can.
1. Download client at peercoin.net (optional: read white paper)
2. Buy Peercoins from one of the many exchanges (see
www.peercoin.net)
3. Have client/wallet online regularly and 1% interest over the amount of Peercoins will be added automatically once in a while averaging 1%/year.
More details can be found on the forum: peercointalk.org. Or just post your specific questions in the forum.

With Ethereum, creating a distributed dropbox is easy, and you can do a thousand other things too. Name coin, for instance, can be done with 5 lines of code on Ethereum. Do you think there is a way that peercoin can integrate with Ethereum?
