gollark: Also, I can afford to run this without real-world pay. I just don't want to be spammed with bad code.
gollark: CC would be kind of æ to use.
gollark: The main issue is still billing for it, I think; do you charge the person who *created* a trusted script per invocation/by resource use somehow (and risk possible denial of service against a script by spamming it with transactions - not sure if this is actually a problem since it would be costly), or do you charge fees to the person invoking it (which is an issue as krist is not that divisible)?
gollark: No. Also, I reserve the right to not actually do this due to anything whatsoever.
gollark: Well, it could be launched separately and run along with krist if it was popular enough.
