To call this a tempest in a teapot is entirely missing the forest for the trees. This is effectively the end result of "you will own nothing and like it".
"Then they came for me and there was no one left."

Hell no, not even close. You are suggesting using an even more public ledger to do things that ostensibly you NEED cash for.
There is little space for PUBLIC and AUDITABLE ledgers of any kind when discussing private payment.

Maybe not “magic” but you can get very close to that with “Discoverable Credentials” on a FIDO2 key.
The process for using a discoverable key on a new machine re-imports the relevant public key and private key handle to the new machine when you “ssh-keygen -K”. Its roughly equivalent to copying key material around with a flash drive, but without the need to remember two physical items.

DMX in this instance stands for "Digital Multiplex" and is mostly shorthand for "DMX-512" which is a RS-485 like protocol for controlling (usually theatrical) lighting systems.
