Just today I was thinking about the theory of making untrusted hardware run trusted software.

Imagine all the things that would be possible. Truly decentralised servers, where the end user can run server side logic.

Aren't Playstation games doing exactly this?

The playstation hardware+firmware+software solution has many layers of trust.

Something I was thinking about just today is using a distributed message bus for networking for competitive games (I had NATS in mind, since I've been playing around with that a lot lately), and having non-players running validation and cheat detection on the messages in real time. I think some incentivization could be added to essentially reward "proof of work" for validating games do or do not have cheaters.
