Datacoin Block Explorer, Smart Contracts, Digital Assets and Online Markets

The Datacoin wallet has an inbuilt block explorer, written by Graham Higgins.  If Apertus can be included in the Datacoin block explorer to display the websites stored on the Datacoin blockchain we would have some very interesting consequences:

1.  We would be able to surf an uncensorable Internet with the Datacoin client.
2.  We would be able to write smart contracts using Javascript, executed by the Datacoin network.
3.  The ByteStamp digital assets would be interpreted (and tradeable) directly in the Datacoin client.
4.  Digital markets and social media would run on the Datacoin network.

The implications of Javascript becoming the language of Datacoin would be highly convenient.  It has basically become the language of the Internet.

I believe that this idea, and the addition of Proof of Stake, is what is needed to revive Datacoin.  The basics of a road-map.
