Editing Exploit markets (section)

= Scalability and incentives =

The problem of scaling such an expensive blockchain and designing it in a way that has proper full node incentives is a huge problem by itself. I still need to think more about this issue but so far I am liking the idea of having incentivized full nodes.

This will be a reward system for maintaining the blockchain. In Bitcoin rewards are given out for ordering events and validating transactions. In the exploit chain rewards will be given for checking exploits on behalf of researchers and auditing rewards.

There is likely going to need to be cryptographic proof done on the blockchain and a file storage protocol will work for proving that a node actually has a full copy. Periodic audits will need to be done to check that full nodes are actually providing the service that they need to.

I will keep thinking on the scalability issue.<span id="optional-crowd-sourcing"></span>
