Finding total issued safecoin at 'current' point in time

[smacz]

@mav

Is it possible for me to iterate over all SD objects to get a rough idea of how much has been issued?

Well, no…

@dirvine

Imagine trying to guess login details when with every wrong guess you are disconnected, etc. There is more to it, but the weird network behaviour is that at the data level in routing you always know the data exists, it must. So any type of search at that level is banned.

And yes…

@dirvine

At the moment it will only be immutable data, SD is a slightly different mechanism and needs to be able to be free of this rule for the time being.

Well, actually it’s more like maybe…

@dirvine

I feel it will be settable whether these are allowed to be searched as some for sure will resist search (by returning dummy / random data every attempt). Things like login or session packets will likely follow this patter. So range based search protection.
