Update up with ISO Standardization/Tooling

Hi Lagos, Thanks for your response. Standards provide people developing systems a guideline so that users have a common experience across systems. There are committees that teams can actively participate in for the development of standards. This development of standards is common in many industries and sectors. Lagos: ISO/TS 23635:2022 Establishes governance principles and frameworks for DLT systems. Debate Over Alignment Between Strict ISO Standards and Decentralization Philosophy Nothing is strict or rigid unless it is law. Many people know that governance in blockchain is not ideal and is not what a rational person would think of as decentralized. There is a tremendous amount of centralization. Vitalik Buterin discusses bribery, collusion and plutocrats - Decrypt Having a forum to refine what policies would be ideal - like weighted voting for participation and/or holdings, is still early in development. Lagos: ISO 27001 – typically requiring anywhere from $5,000 to $200,000 initially along with recurring monitoring charges spanning approximately $5,000 to $40,000 annually. There is alot of range there. In a quick search I found the…
