  • The next Charity Party stream will be on Tuesday, June 8th, which is World Ocean Day! They have something special planned.
  • The web development team is currently working to ensure that the new website is safe and secure before launch. The new website will be rolled out before June 4th.
  • Alex will be in Miami at the Bitcoin 2021 Conference representing Elongate, June 4th to 5th, he will be meeting with community members and doing giveaways.
  • There will be marketing all around the city of Miami during the conference.
  • There are teasers coming up for June 7th. Watch out for announcements on June 6th.
  • Hasan, Chief Technology Officer, is in talks with several exchanges. Recently he was communicating with 8 exchanges. Nothing can be announced until contracts are signed.
  • Elongate will be incorporated in Switzerland. The law firm working with Elongate is based in Switzerland and they are handling everything. Incorporation will happen in a couple weeks.
  • Official announcements regarding the Elongate cable TV segment are coming soon.
  • They have planned to recruit streamers to compete in eSports and gaming tournaments. Winners will choose a charity.
  • The leadership has big goals and Elongate is moving beyond the meme coin identity. Elongate is becoming a legitimate company and is defining what it means to be a charity coin.
  • The first NFTs will feature official Elongate content, later on, the community will be able to submit and vote on NFTs.
  • Investing in Elongate is an investment in the vision, roadmap, and the long term. Elongate is not a pump coin. The team is 100% dedicated to making their vision and roadmap a reality.
  • Social media contests are planned. Winners will receive Elongate.
  • They are considering moving future streams to YouTube Live. They are considering the community's input on this matter.
  • Elongate will not be an official 501(c)(3) charity, an official charity will be established later on in the roadmap.
  • The tokenomics disincentives whales, if someone wants to pump and dump Elongate they need a +20% increase in price. This is an incentive to buy and hold.
  • They aim to have a mix of large and small charities. Every charity is vetted and the leadership confirms that donations are spent in an ethical and fair manner.
  • An Elongate crypto card is a big part of their vision. This would allow holders to spend their Elongate rewards and part of their expenditure goes to charity.
  • The DeCoin listing has not been vetted and therefore cannot be endorsed by Elongate. The Elongate staff cannot confirm your funds will be secure if you trade on DeCoin.
  • They have a healthy reserve of funds in stable coins to keep Elongate alive through any bear market.
  • Positions they are looking to fill: Social Media Managers, Designers, Developers, Head of Engineering, Security Engineers, Special Events and Community Engagement. Applicants can email a resume to [info@elongate.cc](mailto:info@elongate.cc) with a resume and portfolio. Ideally, they are looking for applicants with professional experience.
  • They are still growing the volunteer team on all social platforms. If you want to get involved, join Discord and ask. (Moderators, Help/Support, Special Events, eSports/Gaming)
  • There is a possibility for internship opportunities in the future.

Join future Streams, Q&As, and Hangouts to get the full experience.

CoinEx Smart Chain (CSC)|Build the Infrastructure for the Industry with the DeFi Solicitation Event and the Support Fund Scheme

https://preview.redd.it/2aj7g7raur271.png?width=1600&format=png&auto=webp&s=b7dfa9f6f0373b1fd2aa65ccb15e44f2e61634e3

Blockchain is endowed with financial attributes. Take Bitcoin for example. Apart from the financial value as a cryptocurrency, the token economic model, decentralized financial model and related derivatives have constituted the underlying foundation of blockchain finance.

Finance is also the earliest application of blockchain that boasts the most complete ecosystem. Centering on the exchange, a comprehensive financial service system has been set up, which already generates profits.

From the perspective of profitability, finance is also the only area in the blockchain that generates win-win results for both project developers and investors. Centralized exchanges, in particular, kept expanding business on the basis of crypto trading, and derived the sphere of blockchain finance as an industry barrier. As the ecosystem grew, centralized exchanges had even risen to the industry leader with a big say.

Yet the monopoly of centralized exchanges was ended by the rise of DeFi, and mechanisms including lock-up mining keep the token holdings of exchanges low enough to threaten the survival of centralized exchanges. Whether to maintain the supremacy in the industry or to tackle the emerging threatens, exchanges are resolved to take part in the real financial revolution and evolution of the blockchain.

However, such resolution is far from adequate to help centralized exchanges win the battle against the DeFi crisis. To be a rule maker, the construction of blockchain infrastructure will be the key.

Under this circumstance, CoinEx has taken a major step forward by launching CoinEx Smart Chain (CSC), making itself an example of seizing the first-mover advantage.

At present, the CSC testnet has been deployed and will go live on May 31, 2021 after the stable internal operation. CSC is a smart contract chain created by the CoinEx public chain team for decentralized finance based on the principle of decentralization and permissionless block generation. It can provide developers with an efficient and low-cost on-chain environment to run decentralized smart contract applications (DApps) and store digital assets.

According to the official, upon the launch of the CSC testnet, a $10 million seed fund scheme will be set up to encourage more developers to get involved in DeFi projects. To facilitate the synergy between the CeFi ecosystem and DeFi ecosystem of CoinEx and attract more developers to build centralized applications on CSC, the CSC Foundation will set up a $10 million seed fund scheme as a gesture of support for the ecosystem building in the blockchain industry. So in what ways will CSC’s support fund scheme and “DeFi solicitation event” promote the industry?

Following the seed fund scheme, a DeFi project contest will be kicked off to encourage more developers. Promising DeFi projects will receive a support fund of up to $100,000. The CSC Foundation will also provide outstanding DeFi projects with all-around resources including CoinEx’s millions of CeFi users, media news in its ecosystem, knowledge popularization articles, incubation financing, derivatives, financial management products as well as the abundant capital.

CoinEx will continuously solicit good DeFi projects. The CSC Foundation will provide liquidity for the outstanding projects that pass the security audit, and issue CET as rewards to developers of star projects, outstanding projects and innovative projects. Moreover, the top projects will be entitled to list coins on CoinEx Exchange.

CoinEx is happy to have new promising developers apply for the CSC seed fund and build their DeFi projects on the CSC. Those with abundant development experience on other chains are also welcomed to migrate their projects to CSC. The CSC Foundation will also provide gateway construction services for project developers with a demand for digital asset issuance on multiple chains.

CoinEx has long been focusing on ecosystem construction. Instead of confining itself to the trading ecosystem, CoinEx has, upon its rise, started the layout of an inclusive ecosystem to build a solid industry barrier. The DeFi solicitation event aims to discover high-quality blockchain projects that can inject new vitality into this industry and also to nurture and improve the DeFi ecosystem of CSC. The community of CSC will join in the governance in the early stage.

Support in the ecosystem plays an important role in growing CSC DeFi, and only when the ecosystem develops, CSC DeFi can expand;

DeFi still sets a high threshold for ordinary users. Fortunately, the threshold will be lowered by CoinEx, the representative of CeFi, thanks to its continuous efforts in strategic layouts and integration with DeFi. Driven by CoinEx, more encrypted assets will flow into the DeFi world, making for a more promising future. CoinEx’s support fund scheme and “DeFi solicitation event” have been steadily advancing. Amid the DeFi boom, CoinEx is going deep into the ecosystem construction, and has undoubtedly stimulated the development of the entire market.

As a blockchain running in parallel with Ethereum, CSC not only allows users to create token smart contracts, but also introduces CET, one of the first-class encrypted assets, to form a stake mining mechanism.

CSC is a blockchain compatible with the EVM, and it represents a trial and exploration of cutting-edge projects of encrypted assets. The launch of CSC will greatly improve the efficiency and application scope of CoinEx and CET. By introducing the PoS consensus mechanism and integrating the PoA for block generation, CSC has created an ecosystem that makes nodes, token holders, developers, and users benefit from the blockchain and enjoy higher performance and ample room for innovation.

Besides making the ecosystem prosper, CSC has built a new type of underlying architecture of blockchain that integrates multi-layer chain networks from the core chain to the application chain, and made innovative breakthroughs in pain points such as the throughput, cross-chain collaboration, credible data exchange, and security. As a public and open smart chain infrastructure, CSC has gathered resources, projects and talents from all aspects, and carried out special research on fundamental key technologies to expand blockchain applications in new areas.


Security precautions for Bitcoin conference

Anyone have tips for basic security precautions for someone flying in for Bitcoin conference? I’m worried about the increased gun violence that’s been happening plus this is a very high profile event with a ton of extremely wealthy people attending and concerned it might be a target for people looking to cause trouble.

I also don’t know how much security the organizers are providing for the event.


How Long does it Take to Mine One Bitcoin?

All things considered, it's not generally conceivable to mine only 1 Bitcoin. This is because each square prize is 6.25 BTC. It used to be 12.5 BTC until May 2020 when there was the dividing and the square prize was sliced down the middle.

So there's not a route to mine only 1 Bitcoin. You either win the square reward and get 6.25 BTC or you don't get anything. Indeed, getting nothing is what happens most of the time when you're a Bitcoin miner mining solo.

There are more than a million ASIC-based miners in the network at a given moment and just a single miner at a time can win the square prize. So the chances of any single machine winning are literally one in a million!

So what is the solution here?

Pool Mining

A Bitcoin mining pool is a collective exertion whereby the entirety of the miners in the pool consolidate their hash force and afterward split the prize. So it does not matter which ASIC- based miner in the pool really wins the square prize. That prize is dispersed relatively to the entirety of the miners dependent on how much hash power they're contributing.

That is the reason joining a mining pool is the most ideal route to mine Bitcoin. You won't get a Bitcoin at the same time, in any event; not without an immense number of ASICs. Rather, you can slowly amass a Bitcoin over the long haul.

For instance, with five or ten ASICs you might have the option to mine 0.01 BTC a day, and eventually, in 100 days you would have mined a full Bitcoin. Obviously what amount of time it requires for you to mine a Bitcoin will rely upon an assortment of elements.

The most significant of these elements is the present hash rate. The higher the hash rate, the more troublesome it is to mine (more rivalry and less benefit). Be that as it may, the hash rate habitually changes as new miners join the blockchain and old ones leave.

Last Word

Bitcoins can be useful to many individuals. Since they are a global form of currency, you can utilize them in any nation without changing over between monetary forms. The Blockchain is truly secure and it lets you make sure your cash goes to/originates from the perfect individual.

Individuals getting Bitcoins won't need to pay anything for the exchanges, and Bitcoins have a great deal of community-driven help. These factors will enable Bitcoin to get more clients, and if everybody utilizes Bitcoin it could supplant official monetary standards.

Certainly, it has a few detriments, however, a portion of those are on the grounds that Bitcoin is still a novel and unknown concept to many. So over the long haul, as people get to know more, this issue will erase itself.

Continued Crash

Will the market continue correcting? My current musings are these:

1). BlockFi stablecoin generous APY...thru July.

Could it be that certain institutions have reached out to BlockFi and ‘suggested’ or ‘encouraged’ this move? As they are intent on continuing the plunging/Wyckoff/shorting maneuvers? Even the whales will appreciate retail traders re-energizing the bull market after the bottom they have chosen is in - and having/outsourcing stores of stablecoin ready to go long is smart.

2). Elon Bitcoin tweets, plus this ‘mining council’.

This can be strung out or wrapped anytime they choose. Purely a timing and trigger game imho.

3). We’re in an obvious bear trend rn.

Makes sense and is a bit easier to incentivize some people to sell and preserve their gains so that hodlers can do their thing and continue to stake/provide liquidity as the market corrects

4). Institutions want in this cycle.

The cogs of industry move slow. Michael Saylor has made his case and many are keen to adopt - but the impediments to doing so can be many. What better way to REALLY make this a supercycle and employ this bear market in the middle of the bull market and slow things down, so that these corporations and other entities can really begin the process of mass adoption at ‘reasonable’ prices they have witnessed only a few short weeks and months ago before the crypto jargon they care nothing about of ‘halving events, Eth 2.0, eip1559, DeFi’ etc pumped this way too fast for institutions to grapple with efficiently.


How We Could Afford a Large-Scale Seastead

This post isn't asking for anyone's money but is meant as a preliminary discussion point as to how we could fundraise for what would surely be a multi-billion dollar project one day.

Let us first assume that the price of bitcoin, like Hal Finney originally predicted, is going to $10 million worth of today's value within our lifetimes.

From a $60k bitcoin to a $10m bitcoin is over 166X returns on what we could treat as a high-yield savings account for any funds we were to donate to this cause. 166 TIMES returns, probably within a decade, definitely within 2-3. What better way to come up with the vast amounts of moulah needed to fund a bitcoin-friendly seasteading community?

Let's say we work on a serious proposal with blueprints and all that, and find out that a proper seastead that is self-sufficient would cost us $5 Billion USD in today's dollars to build. (Totally spitballing here.) I mean really proper, such as having backups for the mining, desal, solar, wind, internet connections, hospital, food farming, mining, hotel, and marina repair shops. Everything we'd need to get a community of 500 or more people into the deep water.

If we wait until more people arrive and the tech is more feasible, that could be in 10, 20, or even 30 more years... But this rise in Bitcoin's price is a 1-time event that is happening in the present.

The last time such a valuable thing (gold) went from worthless to the world's reserve money in the eyes of the world, it took thousands of years! But today the internet is making it happen in just a few short decades.

We really need to get started saving in a bitcoin fund soon, so we don't miss those sick 166x gains. $5 billion of today's dollars divided by 166 is only $30.1 million dollars, which is only 501 bitcoins. And that's at a $60k BTC, and it also assumes that bitcoin doesn't just keep growing in value forever. (Which it may, due to people losing coins and population growth!)

I repeat: We need to save ~501 Bitcoins soon to fund a $5 billion seasteading city later. This is a totally achievable goal, especially since so many bitcoiners are already seasteaders. The more bitcoin's price goes up, however, the more that number of bitcoins in savings needs to go up as well though. We really can't afford to wait!

Yes, this comes with other challenges, such as who we can trust to watch over the private keys and how we determine & execute maturity. It would also bring up the question of how we can incentivize people to do all the work like draw up proper blueprints, research technology and materials, onboard suppliers, find & coordinate the inhabitants, etc. I'd argue that these problems all need solving no matter what approach we take, and having a large, publicly-auditable pool of bitcoins in our care would smooth these problems out nicely as it grows.

I don't have all the answers, but the problem of who to trust with the private keys seems obvious to me: We minimize the trust in any human, and put together a solid multisignature wallet with something like 10 keys that at least 8 of us would need to sign in order to spend any funds. The key bearers would be split between the folks who care the most about seasteading and the biggest donors. (Joe Quirk & Patri could likely get one each, and if huge coiners like Saylor and Musk dgot involved and donated 100 coins then they'd get one too, etc.) We'd have to get all those keys in place with sound recovery strategies for each and every key before we start loading the wallet with funds.

And just in case this sounds a little too-long-term for some of you impatient folks, (myself included) we can always raise more than 501 Bitcoins. There are liberty lovers out there with literally thousands and thousands of coins and no way to spend them all in their lifetimes. (See: Pineapple fund)

BogTools - The Most Anticipated Relaunch In The Binance Smart Chain's History Just Happened

On May 21st, 2021, the original $BOG token was attacked, capitalizing on an exploit found in the staking portion of the original contract. This exploit, which was based around an error that paid stakers more tokens than were removed from the total transaction volume, allowed the attacker to effectively generate new tokens en masse. The end result was a massively inflated supply, distributed between stakers after the attacker stole three million dollars of liquidity and sold millions of tokens into the remaining pool.

During the event, the BogTools developers were able to halt all staking-related contract functions, ending the attack before it could be completed. With a massively inflated supply and a broken holder distribution, the developers employed a similar exploit to remove the remaining liquidity in preparation for a token migration and total relaunch.

Oh no! Have they fixed it?

The new $BOG contract no longer contains code that can result in this sort of event in the future. BogTools & https://Bogged.Finance are ready to make their return, stronger than ever. Backed by newly-completed and future-planned third party security audits, You can rest easy that your funds will be #SAFU.

Well, what happens next?

Let's find out.

Following the events of other prominent coin exploits, many users found chance for opportunity in the potential for a $BOG rebound. Unwary, they stumbled into one of the most ambitious projects on the Binance Smart Chain. With 15,000 new telegram members joining since the attack, we think $BOG is due for some action.

Me ape, me not know $BOG

Bogged.Finance & BogTools.io will be the most innovative token on BSC. Nothing else comes in striking distance of $BOG's ambition, target market, use-case, and functionality. The team is self-funded, the old token boasts over 40,000 holders, and the community engagement spread across Telegram, Discord, and Twitter pushes well over 25,000 members. No, they aren't bots. Feel free to check.

💎 Use Cases 💎

  • Limit orders (buys/sells) on PancakeSwap v2: A Limit order is a type of buy order that you place with a specific buy or sell price, determined by you. When the market price reaches your target price, the trade will be automatically executed. Limit orders can help you buy dips or take profits to take advantage of volatility in the marketplace.
  • Stop-Loss orders on PancakeSwap: Stop-Loss orders are orders that are triggered when a stock moves past a specific price point. Beyond that price point, stop-loss orders are converted into market orders that are executed at the best available price. Remember that massive dump where Bitcoin went from $64,000 to $30,000? You could've kept your money if you had a stop loss set up.
  • Easy-to-read and fast-loading charts: Bogged.Finance's clean UI and fast loading times make it a better alternative than Poocoin, making newcomers even more attracted to DeFi.
  • Token sniper: A hidden gem. It has 3 tiers, each with different features. Each order uses a dedicated high-performance node terabytes in size, and they use an extreme amount of gas to stay ahead of the game. During testing, the devs were able to get dozens of BNB (hundreds if they sold right away instead of holding)
  • ARG: Bogged.Finance also has an ARG, with $10,000+ in prizes. It's perfect for people who like cybersecurity, although it's open to anyone.
  • BogSwap: The website also includes a built-in swap that supports PancakeSwap v1, PancakeSwap v2, and ApeSwap.
  • Built-in staking with high APY: BOG also has a staking function with a really high APY to incentivize people to add liquidity to the project. In the near future, everyone will also be able to use the solo staking function ,which enables you to stack BOGs without the fear of impermanent loss (this is currently only available to pre-exploit holders in orders for them to recover from the hack losses)
  • - Decentralized Oracles:
  1. The BOG RNG V2 allows smart contracts to get randomness on-chain in a verifiably secure fashion. Hashes of the pending numbers are stored in the RNG contract and assigned to randomness requests in the initial call. The oracle will then call back the requesting contract with the random number which is verified against the stored hash to ensure the random number provided has not been tampered with based on the nature of the request. This is a simple but secure method of providing random numbers on-chain which allows developers to easily integrate it into their project instead of trying to roll their own solution.
  2. On-Chain Price Oracles: The charts also use these oracles. Accurate price data displayed in BNB
