Can you provide any details as to how it will be free, scalable, and decentralized? The word blockchain doesn’t inspire my confidence.

It's just a marketing ploy to entice the tech-challenged - you use fancy or obscure words to sweeten the icing on a cheap cake

If you use block-chain to empower machine learning you can enable your business to proactively think outside the box on all of your action items!

You can find an answer in my other comments. If they were not enough, please let me know I will try to explain it more.

Sure! We are using Blockstack for authentication; it is a platform to have your identity safe with the help of blockchain. Scalable? It is easier as all the works are done in the client-side, so no server pressure there, and your data will be stored on the storage provider of choice although we have a default one with 10GB free storage for all the news users. (Always encrypted!) In the future, we will provide extended options like self hosting for enterprises.

I'd never heard of Blockstack, I quit the sign up as soon as I saw it. I didn't want to waste my time being forced into yet another unknown brand.

So the only decentralized/blockchain part is authentication?
