Distribution

This marine species occurs off Hawaii.

gollark: Anyway, the centralized version would not be very blockchainy but just a thing to execute sandboxed JS with connectivity to Krist and publicly visible source code.
gollark: I see.
gollark: How would you do that with this?
gollark: If enough people come up with interesting non-stupid uses for this sort of thing, I *can* put together a centralized version.
gollark: You *could* sort of do that, in a kristaceous centralized fashion, by having some server just connect to KristQL and run user-submitted bits of JS code to validate things.
