Wait. Did the White House just discover a legitimate use-case for NFTs?
No, all you need for this is a digital signature and to publish the public key on an official government website. And maybe for platforms like YouTube and TikTok to integrate check status in their UI (e.g. flag any footage of candidates that was not signed by the government private key as "unverified").
How would an NFT help in any way?
I was being glib, but as NFTs are (typically) images signed by a blockchain, it meets the criteria of "cryptographically signed image" in a way.
In reality, you are correct.
Tinfoil hat time. It's probably because they need to start creating AI videos to show he's 'competent and coherent' and they'll say their 'tests proves that it's a real video not a fake. And since the government said it's true, morons will believe it.
If Trump is any indication, no politician will ever need to be 'competent and coherent' ever again, constituents would vote in a literal corpse if it had a sign propped on it saying "gays bad"
There is that. It's kind of like the people that are proud to vote for Biden again too. The whole thing is a fucking joke.
I don’t have nearly enough tinfoil for this
