I think it was a typo and meant to be "worth noting"

What are you on about?

Yeah, really terrible landing page, I'm afraid. You'll have an extremely low conversion rate which will be a big waste of a Show HN. The announcement post is also hidden quite small in the footer. I would have ignored this as legal if it weren't for the parent comment.
As it is, I'm not going to sign up without some clear value. Hope to see it again with an improved landing page.

Just the one Baidu image would suffice ;) Don't need one for every site they use it on. Also, I know it's not _that_ similar, but the logo still said Docker to me.

It's available on UNIX systems from the CLI, and is open source: https://github.com/koenbok/cactus

You can, you can directly upload the contents of the .build folder to any host.

It does. Check the .build folder for uploadable files to any host.

Prime example of anecdotal evidence not being worth much. You're subject to bias based on your income level:

We wish Stellar all the best and it's certainly a huge improvement on Ripple Labs, but we're also working on a (not directly competitive, but related) project http://hyperledger.com/ without any native currency or pre-allocation at all.
Hope we can integrate with Stellar as soon as possible.

Yes, by the creator of Ripple who was forced out. This is the continuation of Ripple towards what it was supposed to be.

Technically, it actually works the other way around from vesting. Instead of you having 0% of your shares and working your way up to 100%, you start with 100% of your shares but the company has a Repurchase Right to buy back shares from you for (effectively) nothing. They incrementally lose this right until they have the right to repurchase 0% of your shares, which is when you are "fully vested".

Looks like HN took it down. Will have to come back later as the screenshot looked awesome.

I think you mean the URL in the ledger creation command, e.g., 'hyperledger ledger register newcoin https://newcoin.com'. This would just be the official site of the asset or company, like bitcoin.org is for bitcoin. Currently, this is just used so people can get extra information, but it could be used in the future to remove spam currencies if there is no official site (although we would not be able to do this ourselves, it would require the consent of the entire consensus pool).
