    I agree that it
      does sound very interesting, but since the promoter of the TLD has
      failed to even attempt an answer at the vast majority of questions
      asked, there is no way I would even consider backing it until a
      more competent tech person was willing to speak to us.  Hopefully
      that day will come...

The thing that bugs me is that the code isn't open source "in the name of security". IMHO that's the absolute wrong way to do security - if you want your code to be secure, open it, and let others try and break it, and hopefully propose fixes. It's how open source works, and how major security vendors (e.g. RSA) do it for many many years now.

As much as the idea of a blockchain-based DNS system intrigues me, I am still on the fence about .ORK, because:

1. It's still unclear **what** exactly is unique about it. How is it different from NameCoin, for example?

2. There are potential conflicts with OpenNIC policy - it was mentioned that Twitter accounts are used for identity verification, but beyond that, all domain registrations are essentially anonymous. This needs to be thought through a bit more...

3. I may have misunderstood, but it seems like the protocol itself may also be secret, which amplifies my original concern (second paragraph) even more...

Having said this, I feel like this may be something interesting, but with nothing solid to go on (show me a website, a demo, anything, **specific to how ORK is used in the OpenNIC/DNS TLD context**) I just can't get behind it.

No. We written entire code for ORK server. ORK is the hybrid/DNS but id not open source. The security is the first weapon with we work.

Are you kidding me?
