With anamorphic encryption you can create a local secret anywhere on Earth via #cyberspace and it can serve as proof-of-location without the use of specialized hardware or blockchains. It only requires proof-of-work to set up and it can be verified non-interactively.
IMHO this is a big deal and kind of amazing.
Local secrets enable people on the internet to verify if another person on the internet is physically near them or belonging to their local community without even knowing who they are.
Example: I have the local secret for Place A and I hash it and share it with you. You do the same and share it with me. If we have the same hash, we know we are physically near each other even if we don't know each other's identities.
I feel like this could be used for a million different things. It's hard to even begin to imagine.
