So apparently Microsoft have received a patent for a concept of using body activity for running blockchains. This was a concept that the Stakenet team published to the public domain two years ago (and two days before microsoft filed for the patent), but didn't patent themselves.

Does any of you know how the law works in this case in regards to the legallity/ownership of the matter? Does Microsoft have the right to patent and outright copy ideas from the document that was publically published by the Stakenet team?

Inb4 enormous amounts of Stakenet FUD for this weird idea that was seemingly just thrown out there for fun. Their idea was seemingly that this field/sector would be open to everyone to work with in the future.

It's obvious some big players are scared of what Stakenet is about to release. Bullish af

We didn't wait daddy cz's approval to buy a coin. We did our own research. FUD won't work on us.

What's the patent no? They filed the pct a year ago, but that's going to be from a patent app a year before that. So all in all its June 20, 2018. microsoft would need to prove they conceived the idea prior to the other date, no need to prove they reduced it to practice. Tbh microsoft would do this easily
