Glitch purpose and use case

Hey all, read the white paper and trying to understand how glitch will be used by the masses. As it’s a new blockchain, will it have interop with cosmos to provide cross chain transaction settlement and have the tps and liquidity for large transactions? For example could it settle payments for Tesla if someone wanted to use ADA or doge or One to pay instead of Bitcoin? Being able to reduce the number of transactions for people in countries each time they transact having a taxable event could be beneficial (pay with doge instead of doge to usd to btc or doge to btc). What is glitch solving for and what will the user experience be that attracts billions of dollars to be on yet “another purpose built” chain like Splans for example? I see there is a bsc bridge so will glitch bridge all protocols or have partnerships with banks looking to transact with crypto? It says it can handle whale size trades but why wouldn’t they just continue to use binance, why another exchange and what exactly can/will be exchanged? There are a lot of dapps in defi and between the user experience and why someone would use it over what exists doesn’t seem to be made clear. Can someone with the project elaborate?


Bitcoin miners’ profits rebounds to $60M daily– Is the bull run ready to return to?

Bitcoin ( BTC) miners accumulated $60 million on a thirty-day typical duration since May 5, revealing the initial indicators of recuperation after last month’s extreme profits decrease that adhered to mass miner interruptions in China’s energy-rich districts.

In April, coal mining crashes and also succeeding evaluations in Xinjiang lacerated power supply to the local cryptocurrency mining sector. That compelled miners to shut off their Application Specific Integrated Circuit (ASIC) equipment, which solely produces calculating power to safeguard and also place the “job” right into Bitcoin’s proof-of-work.

According to information from Blockchain com, Bitcoin Mining profits dropped from its 30-day typical top of $60 million– taped on April 16– to as reduced as $57.08 million on May 2. The provided source gathers miners’ information from block benefits and also purchase charges paid to miners.

_Bitcoin miners profits. Source:Blockchain com_The decrease in earnings accompanied a decrease in the Bitcoin network’s hash prices, representing that numerous ASIC equipment went offline after shedding their principal power resource. The complete hash price per 2nd (7-day standard) dove from a document high of 172 EH/s on April 16 to 131 EH/s on April 23, a decline of about 30%.

_Bitcoin Hash Rate Source:Blockchain com_It has actually because recuperated to 168 EH/s on May 5, suggesting that miners are resuming their bitcoin procedures, adhering to a significant mining problem decrease 4 days earlier.

Effects on Bitcoin area price

Bitcoin rates endured substantial decreases adhering to China’s interruptions.

The benchmark cryptocurrency was currently remedying reduced after developing a historic top near $65,000 on April 14. The China FUD apprehensively sped up the sell-off, triggering the BTC/USD currency exchange rate to dive to as reduced as $50,591 since April 25.

_BTC/USD 1-day candle light graph (Coinbase). Source: Tradingview_Bitcoin’s rate and also hash price decrease took place virtually concurrently, feeding one more proof regarding a greater favorable relationship in between both metrics.

Simply placed, the hash price stands for the computational power of the Bitcoin network. This suggests that the greater the hash price, the greater the expense of in theory “striking” Bitcoin, making this statistics associated with the network’s safety and security.

The Bitcoin price has actually recuperated to a little over $55,000 since Wednesday, a lot in accordance with the hash price, representing that the network reset is assisting to keep the cryptocurrency’s dominating favorable prejudice.

More upside tailwinds originate from Bitcoin mining problem forecasts. For instance, information from BTC.com reveals it ought to increase by a small 1% in the succeeding bi-monthly (or 2,016-block durations) modification on Thursday following week.

The network problem, which demonstrates how tough it is for nodes on the Bitcoin network to address the formulas needed for extracting procedures, had actually gone down 12.6% on May 2. That has a tendency to enhance margins for both ineffective and also effective miners, guaranteeing reduced dangers of Bitcoin sell-off at the manufacturers’ end.

Meanwhile, with a benefit modification looking more probable and also mining task climbing on the Bitcoin network, the lasting prejudice for the cryptocurrency continues to be favorable.

An earlier record from Cointelegraph contrasted the relationship in between Bitcoin rates, hash price, and also mining problem, dismissing that the initial has a delayed relationship with the last 2 regardless of the prominent rule, “rate adheres to hash price.”

The BTC/USD currency exchange rate had actually shut 2020 at $28,990 after Bitcoin’s network problem dove to 17.438 TH/s from 19.679 TH/s in the November-December session. The duration additionally saw a substantial decrease in the hash price however left Bitcoin’s general advantage prejudice unblemished.

Silicon Valley Stealth Mode Project - Beyond Protocol

Hey folks,

I am one of the founding members of the Beyond Protocol Street Team. It's a stealth project started by leaders in Silicon Valley and at Stanford University. Please let me know if I can be helpful in any way. Info below. They're hiring.

Overview
Beyond Protocol was started by Silicon Valley-based technologists in January 2018 to harness the explosive power of merging distributed ledger technology and IoT. Beyond Protocol eliminates hacks and facilitates machine-to-machine value transfer.

With security as a given, Beyond Protocol allows us to feel comfortable opening up our devices for collaboration. Using them like threads of yard, the dreamers among us can weave together inventions we would have not thought to conceive.

From the smart phone -- a camera, a touch screen, GPS, an internet connection -- applications were built which revolutionized entire industries (e.g. Uber and Instagram). From Beyond Protocol, mega applications can be engineered on top of any combination of IoT devices: from smart pills to satellites. Imagine a Nest smoke alarm paying a drone to put out a fire, and the drone making micropayments to weather towers along the way to determine the best route. Beyond Protocol sets out to be the ethical language of machines.

After over a year of R&D, in early 2019, the Beyond Protocol team put forth the first iterations of its novel technology to a handful of partners. The technology allows its partners, with one line of code, to i. enable secure message brokering between devices through hardware signatures ii. equip devices with a cryptocurrency-based payment gateway. At present, there are no out-of-box solutions for either capability.

Beyond seeks to build real, practical solutions for device security and payments from consumers to devices, and soon, among an economy of devices. Beyond envisions a future where good triumphs over evil and technology can work to create an exponentially more safe and more beautiful world.

CasperLabs & XT.com AMA Q&A review

https://preview.redd.it/xuudzed45fx61.jpg?width=334&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=a3c02cd5a560d9969844b961ffb943bdd8da62ed

At 3th May, 15:00 (UTC+8), XT.COM did another live streaming !

Host

Weber, CEO of XT.COM

Guest :

Cathy Zhu, Managing Director of China of CasperLabs

Weber: Hi, everyone! Welcome to the XT AMA Channel. I’m Weber, CEO at XT.com. I am hosting today’s AMA with CasperLabs. Let me give a brief introduction to XT first.

XT.com is the world’s first real-time social trading platform with 0% leverage interest. The XT ecosystem has over 6 million global users with a daily transaction volume of close to $5 billion. The platform has real-time indicators and tools that bring the best trading atmosphere for all users.

XT exchange’s innovative social model empowers the blockchain industry through newly developed social trading avenues, which were once not possible. XT has achieved this through a combined effort with our partners, like Bananatok.

Today, our guest is Cathy Zhu, Managing Director of China of CasperLabs. Let’s talk to him to learn about CasperLabs.

Hello Cathy , thank you for joining us for the XT.com and CasperLabs AMA!

Cathy Zhu:Hi This is Cathy Zhu, Managing Director of Casperlabs for China. It is my great pleasure to be here with you. Thanks XT team for inviting me.

Weber: Can you give our audience a brief introduction of CasperLabs as well as the inspiration to build CasperLabs?

Cathy Zhu: I believe most of us on the team have very similar reasons why we are excited to launch this protocol. I can speak personally though.

CasperLabs came about because we thought we could deliver a truly decentralized Proof-Of-Stake system that was developer friendly at the perfect time when such a platform was needed. Blockchain is under-penetrated with only 10–15k developers out of 26 million (0.6% penetration), things are just getting started. We’d love to contribute to helping create systems that bring mass adoption.

Weber: Can you introduce the core team members of CasperLabs? We hear that the team is highly experienced, can we get some examples?

Cathy Zhu: Over 66% of our team are being engineers including scientist .I wish I had time to talk about everyone at the company, but everyone has similar backgrounds. For example over 80% of the team have Masters and graduate degrees most from Ivy league or equivalent schools. On average members of the team have about 15 years of experience, both at leading companies like Bain Capital, Microsoft, Google, Adobe, Amazon, DropBox, but also protocols such as Ethereum, HoneyBadger, Maidsafe and several others.

But If I were to talk about a few.

  1. Dr Daniel Kane: He is a renowned silicon valley mathematician who got a double bachelors from MIT and his PhD from Harvard. He is the primary author on our “highway protocol” flavor of CBC Casper which is the first mathematically provably live and secure protocol which makes no Compromises to Security. He has a wikipedia article on him.
  2.  (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Daniel_Kane_(mathematician)

  3. Dr. Andreas Fackler, got his PhD at Ludwig-Maximilians-Universität.. He held roles at Google for several years and has also worked on the Maidsafe and Honeybadger protocols.

  4. Medha Parlikar our CTO : decades of experience delivering production software at marquee companies such as Adobe, Omniture, Avalara, MP3.com and DivX, managing very large engineering teams.

Weber: In the Crypto industry, what do you think of the current state? What do you think that needs to be improved?

Cathy Zhu: Every new technology takes a significant amount of time to gain mainstream adoption. Amazon AWS took 9 years to break into the mainstream and the internet took decades to become the phenomenon that it has become.

As a related point, Firstly, I think there are core reasons why public chains have not seen mainstream adoption yet. The developer experience is difficult and does not mirror the experiences they are used to (Esoteric and custom programming languages like solidity, plutus etc).

In addition there are no public blockchains that achieve scalability while maintaining full security (not just probabilistic security) and decentralization, a lot of new generation blockchains have some centralizing features as well as tendency to have very concentrated ownership structures, These are both challenges that we aim to correct.

Weber: How does the CasperLabs team plan to tackle these issues to reach mass adoption?

let’s talk about some specific things we are doing!

Firstly we have embraced open programming standards. The chart on the left shows that while solidity is the most used smart contracting language today with ~10k developers, this number is much smaller than the 26 million total developers out there.

https://preview.redd.it/kmzg5ip95fx61.png?width=478&format=png&auto=webp&s=8a6d838e257bcce7b8abffb630a843ad3675708a

The chart on the right shows that Rust has the highest approval rating amongst programming languages (From Stack overflows survey which had over 90,000 respondents)

This is telling us that for blockchain to succeed it needs to cater to all developers and they have made their preferences for 1. broadly used and 2. well-supported programming languages very clear.

The CasperLabs blockchain supports Rust and Assembly Script right out the gate as contracting languages. This makes it very easy for developers to use familiar tools. By embracing open standards, we will be able to create a platform that welcomes all 26 million developers

Secondly we have a set of tools that significantly make the developer experience easier, including

  1. Flexible payment code (Sender does not always have to pay)
  2. Weighted key management (You can create any kind of threshold system)
  3. Upgradeable contracts (Never lose control of your systems)
  4. Direct state querying (Easy data access)

Glad to go into detail on any of these.

Weber: Global technological transformation has further strengthened the demand for basic blockchain technology. There are many cross chain and alliance blockchain projects in the market. What do you think of the current public chain market? What are the advantages of CasperLabs in the field of public chain at this stage?

Cathy Zhu: we view ourselves as an infrastructure layer. Similar to Amazon AWS, Microsoft Azure etc. We let application developers do whatever they choose to do. That being said we have included a huge amount of features that enable some pretty great use cases.

We are already in conversations with many large enterprises and startups, but I can talk about some the specific problems we are trying to solve (That have not been solved by block chain yet)

On adoption, the feedback we are receiving from businesses has been extremely positive. Our team has a background in professional software engineering for large SaaS companies, and they understand what software companies need in a technology platform. A lot of features on our platform have been created based on direct feedback from enterprises as well accumulated knowledge on the team.

Weber: Do you think CasperLabs will be “Ethereum Killer”?

Cathy Zhu: Firstly I think the industry is in too early stages to have clear competition. The industry in general is under-penetrated and the ethos is to be helpful to each other. I’d say we are closest in beliefs to ethereum in that we believe is a fully open and decentralized system.

We are very similar in terms of ethos. We are a fully permissionless and highly secure protocol so in that sense as smart contracting platforms we are most similar to ethereum. And in many ways we are implementing the ethereum 3.0 roadmap

In terms of differences. We will be a full scalable PoS system at launch (Estimated end of the year), Ethereum will continue to be a PoW/PoS hybrid for at least a few years. The first phases of Eth 2.0 are PoW/PoS hybrids. In addition we have embraced open programming standards right out the gate, the Ethereum shift to open programming standards will be a few phases out

In addition the two features I described (flexible payment code and weighted key management) and several more like CI/CD are unique to our protocol and are not yet on the ethereum development timeline.

Weber: The purpose of CasperLabs is to build a revolutionary blockchain platform for all applications that need advanced security protection. So how does CasperLabs protect assets and data security on a completely decentralized public chain platform?

Cathy Zhu: CasperLabs has very rigorous security standards, meaning we rely on provable Mathematical security rather than probabilistic security. This is largely aided by the cutting edge work from Drs Daniel Kane and Andreas Fackler.

We are fully Byzantine fault tolerant and have considered all major attack types include 1. Cartel formation 2. Long Range Attacks 3. Equivocations 4. Double spend attacks 5. Sybil attacks etc. Our mathematical proof lays it out here (https://github.com/CasperLabs/highway/releases/download/v1.0/highway.pdf)

We are also immune to several DDoS style attacks that have not been uncovered by recent research. There are a family of DDoS attacks that we think most proof of stake chains are vulnerable to and have not anticipated. We will be publishing this research soon.

Weber: From the perspective of the market, do we need such a large number of public chains in the future? Do you think a lot of different public chains will affect ecological efficiency?

In my opinion only 2 tectonic shifts (Big moments!) have happened in our industry

1. First tectonic shift Nakamoto consensus (Used in Bitcoin) created the digital asset. It’s not just about money and currency it is also the best form of copy protection we have ever seen.

2. Second tectonic shift was the birth of smart contracting as proposed by ethereum. Now we could also make money programmable

The third tectonic shift (Or Blockchain 3.0) will happen once blockchain technology scales throughput, security and adoption. Unfortunately this has not happened yet because most attempts to scale have sacrificed true decentralization and security.

I think there are a lot of protocols coming out. My view is that the ones that try to create something without compromising security or decentralization are the ones that will create long term value. In the short term everything is speculative, but the real prize is when you build something that can withstand any attack and any form of control.

Weber: What is your timeline, and what can we look forward to from CasperLabs?

Cathy Zhu: We started building since November of 2018.There has been almost a year and a half of development work done by a relatively large team of 30+ full time employees and dozens of advisors and consultants who have helped refine the platform.

We launched our mainnet at the end of March.

Right from the beginning CasperLabs has been built as a platform to help bring developers and communities together to build whatever their imaginations want to. We aim to be open infrastructure similar to AWS and enable developers and entrepreneurs to run the applications, data and contracts as they choose. . CasperLabs is purpose built to give people easy to use tools and technologies to let their imaginations fly. As an industry we all have a lot to do. Lets get building!

Weber: Since we have co-hosted CASPER Roadshow recently, do you have any plan to deepen our cooperation relationship?

Cathy Zhu: XT.com is one of our partners when we launched the EVO private sale before. And XT is also our co-host for Casper China Roadshow. XT.com has been an amazing and very supportive partner of Casper. We really value of the partnership with XT.com. We are really appreciate all the support and help XT.com has given to us. We are looking forward more collaboration with XT.com in the future and also looking forward to know XT.com community more.

Weber: Anything else do you want to share with our community?

Cathy Zhu: We are pleased with the initial community interest in the underlying technology but I will state again that we are just getting started. We will continue to engage deeply with communities and as the restrictions open up, we aim for a lot of in person events, hackathons and much much more which should see these trends accelerate even more. The next focus of CasperLabs is working on Casper ecosystem and partnerships including enterprise relations. There are a lot of really good news coming soon. Please stay tuned. You may join Casper telegram group to get the latest and greatest update from Casper https://t.me/casperblockchain.

Weber: Thank you, Cathy, for taking the time to do this AMA with us today. It has been great learning more about CasperLabs and the team behind it! it’s great to have such a wonderful cooperation with CasperLabs. Looking forward to our further cooperation.

Beirut Port - Safemoon Banner

Hello fellow astronauts.

Most of you have heard about the Beirut Port Explosion last August. But what most of you have probably not heard of, is the Lebanese currency devaluation for the last 1.5 years mostly due to banks and corrupt politicians stealing the lifesavings of the people.

The official LBP/USD rate is around 1500 LBP per USD, but currently, it is priced around 12 000 LBP per USD in the black market, so, LBP lost about 8x its value.

Due to this situation, a lot of Lebanese people are going into crypto as an alternative for the banks. Even though crypto is volatile, Bitcoin and Ethereum are still more stable than LBP, and much safer then the banks who already stole the depositors money once.

Safemoon is the freedom of the unbanked, and the Lebanese people who lost all their trust in their banking system are the perfect target for Safemoon.

Therefore, I would like to install a Banner on a on a building damaged near the Beirut explosion and was not yet renovated (this area also holds a lot of tourist traffic).

If you would like to participate in this event, your Safemoon donation to the below address is appreciated:

0x26043902122007C8a1087f1967d3A7C3ab19E12D

My target is around 1000$ worth of Safemoon, the banner will cost around 400$ and the extra 600$ will go to the owner of the building, which will help him a bit with the renovation process.

If we reach a higher target, depending on the amount, I will either give it to the owner, or replicate this project on another building / area.

Lets help the devs with this freedom of the unbanked, and Safemoon to the moon!!


Could DOGE beat bitcoin?

Reposting this because I want to see peoples thoughts:

I think that one day dogecoin could potentially reach the likes of bitcoin. It sounds crazy but I actually took a moment to think and compare Dogecoin and bitcoin, I’m not going to do any math or crazy calculations to see how much Dogecoin would need to be worth, I’m just going to share my thoughts. Dogecoin since its deflationary can be used as a currency, and 5 billion coins a year won’t end up affecting the price that much. I also thought upon the practicality, dogecoin seems like a much friendlier coin to the people than bitcoin, let's say bitcoin did not have the big lead that it has now and these were both new cryptos. Would you choose the one that is based on a dog and meme culture or something that seems more business like? I think the only thing separating doge from becoming great is the thought that Bitcoin is the main crypto, or that it’s on top. If they started at the same place I think doge would come out on top, but the thing is now doge has to go through that journey and it seems more difficult now. We still have many more events to come with doge as it’s picking up traction in the world, we are truly still in the beginning of what it could become, if it keeps picking up it could truly become the currency of the world. I feel like these thoughts may be all over the place because I’m just writing them down out of things I’ve heard and thought about but let me know your opinion, do you think it sounds crazy, or realistic?


Crypto Daily News from ZBG Exchange

1. Market Wrap: Ethereum Classic Steals Show From Bitcoin, Ether, Even DOGE

Ethereum Classic pops 53%, while bitcoin recovers and ether pushes back toward its all-time high.

In a reminder that easy money prevails, cryptocurrencies rallied on Wednesday with bitcoin (BTC) up about 5% over the last 24-hours. It was trading at $57,133 at the time of writing.
Ether (ETH), the second-largest cryptocurrency, bounced back from Tuesday’s sell-off, pushing toward the all-time high of around $3,500.
News that Fidelity National has teamed up with NYDIG, a crypto custody firm, to allow U.S. banks to offer customers the ability to buy, sell and hold bitcoin contributed to bullish trading activity on Wednesday.
“Bitcoin could see continued momentum back above $60,000 just on the Fidelity news,” Edward Moya, senior market analyst at Oanda, a foreign exchange broker, wrote, describing the news as a “game-changer.”
Additionally, news that Galaxy Digital, a crypto-focused financial services firm, agreed to buy BitGo, the U.S. regulated crypto custody specialist, was another positive development for cryptocurrencies.
But the big story of the day was a 53% jump over the past 24 hours in price for ethereum classic (ETC), born of a contentious split a few years ago from the dominant Ethereum blockchain.
Bitcoin trading around $57,133 as of 21:00 UTC (4 p.m. ET). Gaining 5% over the previous 24 hours.
Bitcoin’s 24-hour range: $53,633-$57,356
Ether trading around $3,476 as of 21:00 UTC (4 p.m. ET). Gaining 2.6% over the previous 24 hours.
Ether’s 24-hour range: $3,237-$3,530

2. Uniswap v3 Is Live as DEX Aims to Become Ethereum’s Indisputable №1

The leading automated market maker now offers “concentrated liquidity,” which many believe will attract even more liquidity than Uniswap has already.

Uniswap version 3.0 is live, an upgrade widely expected to make the automated market maker much more attractive for the cryptocurrency traders and funds with the deepest pockets.
The decentralized exchange, which appeared on Ethereum in late 2018, is currently the fourth-largest decentralized finance (DeFi) application on that blockchain, as ranked by DeFi Pulse, with $7 billion in assets staked. According to its own stats, Uniswap’s v2 accrued $1.6 billion in trade volume over the last 24 hours.
The company behind the Uniswap protocol announced version 3 was coming in late March and now the automated market maker (AMM) is rolling it out in the middle of a crypto bull run that has pushed ether (ETH, +4.84%) (ETH) to all-time highs. ETH is the second-largest cryptocurrency by market cap and the native token of Ethereum, where DeFi was born and much of the action still takes place.

3. E-Commerce Giant MercadoLibre Discloses $7.8M Bitcoin Buy

The Latin American retailer said the purchase was in the last quarter.

Latin American e-commerce giant MercadoLibre disclosed a $7.8 million bitcoin (BTC, +4.09%) purchase on Wednesday, making it the latest publicly traded company to park bitcoin on its balance sheet.
The Argentina-based company said in an earnings report the purchase happened in the last quarter and was part of its treasury strategy. MercadoLibre trades on Nasdaq as MELI.
Though far from the lofty bitcoin acquisitions of MicroStrategy (roughly $2.2 billion) or Tesla ($1.5 billion), the investment by MercadoLibre represents a strong step toward mainstreaming bitcoin as a payment option.
The largest e-commerce player in Latin America, MercadoLibre unveiled a bitcoin-only real estate platform just last week. Its MercadoPago payments platform integrated bitcoin in 2015.

4. PayPal Q1 Transaction Revenue Rose 33% YOY as Total Revenue, EPS Topped Views

The payments giant raised yearly forecasts for net new accounts, total payment volume, revenue and earnings.

PayPal’s (PYPL) Q1 transaction revenue rose 33% to $5.62 billion from $4.22 billion in the year-earlier period as the payments giant posted better-than-expected earnings and sales. The company boosted its year forecasts.
Quarter over quarter, transaction revenue fell slightly to the $5.68 billion reported in the holiday-spending boosted Q4.
Part of PayPal’s transaction revenue was from the company’s crypto buy, sell, and hold product. The payments giant also added 14.5 million in net new active accounts, down from 16 million added in the last quarter. (The company excludes crypto payments from total payment volume.)

5. Crypto Derivatives Boom Leaves Small Traders Vulnerable to Liquidation: Carnegie Mellon

Sophisticated actors are taking from amateur investors in bitcoin derivatives trading, according to Carnegie Mellon researchers using data from BitMEX.

Researchers at Carnegie Mellon University are warning that sharp price swings and liquidations could disproportionately impact smaller traders as the market for crypto derivatives booms.
A recent study by the Pittsburgh-based Carnegie Mellon University’s CyLab found trading volume in cryptocurrency derivatives exceeds that of the underlying spot markets.
“Sophisticated actors are taking from amateur investors,” Kyle Soska, a researcher at the lab who co-authored the report, said in an interview. “Wealth centralization is taking place and there are a few big players.”
Liquidation events occur when traders cannot fulfill margin requirements for holding crypto derivative positions and often exacerbate price moves. In April, bitcoin (BTC, +4.2%) futures had a record $10 billion worth of liquidations in one day after data showed leveraged traders were excessively skewed bullish. The liquidation coincided with a near 15% drop in BTC from an all-time high of around $65,000.
“When markets are trending up everybody makes money, but during a wipeout a few big actors take everything and the little guys are taken out,” Soska said.

bitcoin bush bash - Yeppoon, QLD Sat 31st July – Sun 1st Aug

Bitcoin-only event. All bitcoiners welcome. No tickets or entry costs.

https://bitcoinbushbash.info/

(I'm not one of the organisers, just sharing for awareness. Heard that previous bashes were superb)


What is "money?"

So what is money?

In the United States, we accept the Dollar because it is the legal tender of our country, and it also happens to be the world reserve currency to exchange for, because of the US's vast economy and military power which the Dollar is backed by. We've only grown accustomed to see the $ sign because it has been around since the founding of this nation, or almost 300 years ago. The entire world is priced in Dollars. In an unlikely event, if today the US government fails due to civil wars or for whatever else that causes it to fail (unlimited money printing), does your so-called USD still hold its value?

If you somewhat drill down to center principles around money in economics, at the end of the day, money is just a belief system for people to trade goods. There was a time period in the United States when people treat cigarettes as money (USD was removed off the gold standard), and people in prisons today still use cigarette as a form of exchange. In ancient time, people bartered and traded with goods like wheats & grains; to people started exchanged with metals because of their unique properties; then to use papers to easily represent the value of exchanged goods; now to just digits showing on your electronic statement so it's easy to move around. The fact of matter is, anything can be money.

Now if you want to say if something makes good money or not, that's a completely different argument. And that's where people in the cryptospace believe Bitcoin can actually be sound money. If you study the original proposal of what Bitcoin was trying to be, its protocol enforces everybody who wishes to participate to play by the rules in an enclosed environment. The idea of sovereignty, which you're in control of your own money, and no one can control this monetary system unless he or she can overcome the enormous parameters set by the Bitcoin's protocol. This monetary system is purely incentives driven, which is what a free market is all about, and why make it so appealing to people who understood the technology and the ideology behind Bitcoin's invention.


Stanford University Stealth Mode Project - Beyond Protocol

Hey guys,

I am a founding member of Beyond Protocol's Street Team. It's a stealth project started by leaders in Silicon Valley and at Stanford University. Please let me know if I can be helpful in any way. Info below. They're hiring.

Overview
Beyond Protocol was started by Silicon Valley-based technologists in January 2018 to harness the explosive power of merging distributed ledger technology and IoT. Beyond Protocol eliminates hacks and facilitates machine-to-machine value transfer.

With security as a given, Beyond Protocol allows us to feel comfortable opening up our devices for collaboration. Using them like threads of yarn, the dreamers among us can weave together inventions we would have not thought to conceive.

From the smart phone -- a camera, a touch screen, GPS, an internet connection -- applications were built which revolutionized entire industries (e.g. Uber and Instagram). From Beyond Protocol, mega applications can be engineered on top of any combination of IoT devices: from smart pills to satellites. Imagine a Nest smoke alarm paying a drone to put out a fire, and the drone making micropayments to weather towers along the way to determine the best route. Beyond Protocol sets out to be the ethical language of machines.

After over a year of R&D, in early 2019, the Beyond Protocol team put forth the first iterations of its novel technology to a handful of partners. The technology allows its partners, with one line of code, to i. enable secure message brokering between devices through hardware signatures ii. equip devices with a cryptocurrency-based payment gateway. At present, there are no out-of-box solutions for either capability.

Beyond seeks to build real, practical solutions for device security and payments from consumers to devices, and soon, among an economy of devices. Beyond envisions a future where good triumphs over evil and technology can work to create an exponentially more safe and more beautiful world.

FAQ
Q: Do you plan to ICO/IEO?
A: To fund our project, and to seed our cryptocurrency, Beyond will sell its tokens from time to time ahead of a public listing. To date, Beyond has sold 4.96% of its token supply to project backers and allocated 6.07% to advisers. Beyond last sold its tokens in a private sale with a market capitalization of $100,000,000.00.

Q: When do you plan to launch?
A: Beyond is mostly in stealth. We plan to unveil key partnerships in Q3 2021 ahead of a token generation event (TGE).

Q: Who are your key advisors?
A: Some of our advisors include:
 - Anoop Nanna (Global Blockchain Practice Leader at Amazon; Formerly: Global Head of Blockchain, Cisco)
 - Stephen DiFranco (Former SVP/GM IoT, Broadcom)
 - Brian Forde (Sr. White House Advisor to Obama; Co-Founder Digital Media Initiative, MIT Media Lab)
 - Greg Silverman (Co-Founder/CEO of Stampede Ventures; Formerly: President, Warner Bros)
 - Brian Weinstein (President/COO, Bad Robot)
 - Peter Boni (Managing Principal, Kedgeway)

Q: How does Beyond compare to other blockchain-based IoT projects?
A: At launch, the core team and its advisers were deeply concerned about the integrity of existing solutions in the marketplace, which scores of its professional and academic associates deemed as being technologically nonviable (See: MIT Media Lab: "Our response to 'A Cryptocurrency Without a Blockchain Has Been Built to Outperform Bitcoin').


The Most Anticipated TCN Token Pre-Sale is Ending Today!

https://preview.redd.it/zts7t39hz9x61.jpg?width=1200&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=83880e3503bb6f796129947a4c4452ad9b0f12c5

· TCN token presale is ending today with a successful accomplishment

· Claim your rewarded TCN before starting your investment

· TCN holders can buy/sell their TCN tokens in Coinsbit exchange platform from 10 May

Token sales are nowadays are attaining a lot of attention, from both institutional investors as well as individual traders alike. Looking at the market trend, the majority of the token sales today work on top of the Tron blockchain TRC20 through a smart contract.

Basically, this contract gathers Tron tokens and automatically exchanges these to regain new tokens unveiled by the start-up firms. This is a procedure removing any middlemen and brokers completely structured on P2P fundamentals. One such new name in this crypto industry is Tech Token Network.

TCN is a decentralized platform operating on Tron blockchain-based protocols. We intend to serve the best-decentralized finance staking application to our users with several benefits. User satisfaction is what makes us eager to improvise and become the best in the market ecosystem.

Behind the Scenes

Every token works on a distinct pricing mechanism, we offer tokens for users in an affordable way. On user demands, we kept the prices as low as any user can easily occupy their tokens. This mechanism is also appealing to the large investors as they come together grabbing a big number of tokens in bulk.

Once this presale is at closure, we will serve a cool-off period where TCN tokens might be frozen or kept away from exchanges that are secure on our side. After some time, the user can trade their tokens on exchanges making profitable investments at a market price.

The same concept follows Tech Token Network reaching out huge audience with its native token- TCN. We’re just a few hours away from the end of our TCN token pre-sale. This is the time you can purchase tokens at discounted rates, bonus applied, and best rewards. If you have not participated in the event, this seems your last chance.

TCN Token Details

Thanks to the user and great community members, we have achieved our goals faster than we expected. We want to rejoice this moment by announcing our next Airdrop Campaign for the fellow mates to be announced soon. The release is on hold, once the distribution is accomplished, we will announce it on our social media. Our TCN token presale was a successful one!

Tech token network introduced their native token for fundraising and retrieving maximum audience. Our token is a decentralized cryptocurrency that was launched to become the token of reference for the interactive staking, gaming, yielding, and financing industry.

Gaming and cryptocurrency are the two rapidly growing, demand-driven markets in the space today. Our plan behind the token is to explore the universe in terms of blockchain technology, versatile protocol implementation, best source applications, and payment methodologies for the active industry requirements.

We intend to offer developers and publishers the best options to monetize their products, protect building assets, integrate smart contracts, and much more. You can read about all our latest plans and developments in the whitepaper!

Why TCN Tokens?

TCN token offers the entire reliable aspects with an established, profitable presence in currently regulated crypto markets. The platform is merging the new technology protocols to solve the problems facing crypto operators and investors today.

Our platform is best in terms of the user interface, speed, security, trust, cost, and content. Our token will democratize access to the world-class decentralized finance industry for those underserved by the centralized banking system.

We aim to provide concrete value and additional benefits to our community and partners. Our present attempt was the presale which started on April 21, 2021, and was decided to end by April 30, 2021. On the basis of user demand, we extended our presale by one week and today it is destined to pose a successful closure.

Time is running, if you still wish to participate in our presale event you can earn 1 TRX = 2.5 TCN for some time now. We highly encourage you to use this opportunity in becoming our community member and grab as many TCN as you can.

The user claims our tokens to be a Game Changer according to their experience in holding it. You can hold TCN and start trading TCN tokens on Coinsbit exchange from May 10, 2021. Our latest partnership enables you to willingly participate and enjoy trading at the basic assets- Bitcoin, Tron, and Tether respectively.

Now is the best time

Bitcoin’s recent price crash, which saw it lose a quarter of its value after hitting an all-time high, could be just the “midway dip” in a new record-breaking rally if market patterns from 2013 and 2017 are repeated. This is the view of a number of prominent cryptocurrency analysts, who adhere to a “stock-to-flow” model dictated by bitcoin’s inbuilt scarcity. The model is based on the relationship between the existing stockpiles of bitcoin and the yearly production rate of new bitcoins through digital mining. Roughly every four years, a “halving” event occurs that reduces the rewards for mining the cryptocurrency by 50 per cent. After the first halving in 2012, bitcoin’s price rose from around $11 to $1,100 before falling back down. The second halving in 2016 saw bitcoin’s price rise from $500 to $20,000 before dipping again. The most recent halving event took place in May 2020, right at the beginning of the latest price rally. It has since risen from below $10,000 to the new all-time high of $64,863 that it hit this month. After briefly falling below $48,000, it has since recovered slightly to $55,000 at the time of writing.

Help be not be a detractor!

I've been aware.of the concept of crypto-currencies for a number of years (and actually remember someone taking to me about bitcoin at work about 10 years ago, don't keep in touch with the chap but hope he made his fortune), but I still don't understand where the value is and therefore am reluctant to invest.

The arguments events I struggle to get round in my mind are:

1) Given the finite volume of bitcoin will the value continue to increase? And if so, how does will this work as a currency or is it more likely to resemble a commodity forever.

2) I get the whole decentralised bit, but how can these currencies attract market trust (and therefore value) when there are so many of them.

3) Bitcoin is the biggest but also the first, other digital currencies have already improved or resolved flaws with how bitcoin operates, why is bitcoin still the most talked about?

4) Economies and therefore the consumer do better with a stable currency. The centralisation of currency houses allows for an element of currency manipulation to help protect the currency and therefore the interest of currency holders. The fact that there is no governing body means that crypto-currencies will answer only to the market, would this inevitably lead to close given that global economic strife is fairly close cyclical.

5) The strong correlation between bitcoin value and other cryptocurrency surely indicates the level of speculative interest underpinning the value. Are there any traditional ways of measuring or assigning value? This compined with the relative market illiquity compared to other financial instruments (i.e. blue chip stock) surely mean there is another value collapse coming?

6) Does the complexity in regulation create a greater risk that Governments will intervene negatively given that there would be little upside available for them to intervene positively? Are we just waiting for a government to be the first to go balls deep in legislating the use and application of crypto-currencies before we see them fail?

7) Why could the US for example not simply create a digital aspect to the USD which would immediately garner more institutional backing than even bitcoin?

I understand the potential applications of crypto-currencies but don't understand how they will survive, and the 'bitcoin is too big too fail' doesn't really fly given previous economic issues that have occurred. Any help understanding any of these points would be appreciated.


A message about May 8th and passing $1

Hey Shibes,

I just wanted to put my 2 cents in on current events, mainly for new investors and people who have YOLO'd into Doge in the last few days/weeks.

The growth we are seeing right now is indeed exciting, (This is not a post to spread fear! Quite the opposite!) I have been holding since 2014 and believing that Doge will one day be a true, accepted currency. However, the growth we are seeing will, I believe, take a huge dive very soon due to one of two (or both) factors.

  1. The hype that has been created around Elon Musk hosting Saturday Night Live and the hope that he will mention Doge.
    If he does, there will be a sharp spike in Doge price, followed by the same sharp drop which could trigger panic selling and drive the price down. This is what happens every time he tweets, however it usually creates a higher low, which is good. If he doesn't, it may stay steady, or people may think he has abandoned Doge and sell anyway. This is a stupid notion as he has expressed his interest and love for Doge multiple times a a usable currency.
  2. The event that we hit $1.
    There are no-doubt, many many people and corporations that have set a sell limit at the $1 mark. This means that the moment Doge reaches $1, sell orders will be triggered and billions of dollars worth of doge will be sold which will cause the price to plummet. How far, no one knows.

Now for the good news! All we have to do is HOLD. When the price plummets after reaching $1, many people will panic sell and say its all over. This will drive price down even further, AND is a fantastic time for you and I to add more Doge to our wallets.

All of this to say. The price goes up and down...but its on a very steady run up. Bitcoin has been pronounced dead over 400 times since it was created, and look at it! So have faith in your fellow shibes, and HODL! Every big shot investor on Wall Street said Doge would never be worth a thing, and its making millionaires out of ordinary people like you and me. Doge is going to do some AMAZING things if we just give it the chance.

None of this is financial advice. I'm just a poor shibe who wants to see us all succeed.

Do Only Good Everyday!
