gollark: PotatOS's string metatable bug implementation has high latency and does only store whatever can be serialized to JSÖN, but I think it's quite good.
gollark: Utilizing my reimplementation of the string metatable bug for shared storage of all transactions and data, it requires full trust in every participant.
gollark: Nope!
gollark: We should just switch to Potato Transact\™.
