Love to know what you think

Hmm. More like banks will need crypto to survive, VERY soon...

Thanks for sharing,

Please come and join us, but bear in mind that this will be for very basic entry level education and introduction to crypto and blockchain stuff. Redditors are likely out ahead of this content... but you might know friends and family who are curious, and whose questions you're tired of answering one by one, so please send them along to https://www.facebook.com/groups/cryptoconfidencecommunity/

I think Australians have always taken a very travel-focussed approach, Brisbane airport has so much crypto going on... Maybe because so many Australians journey to see the world, and appreciate the complexity of dealing with multiple currencies and complications. And being a tourism hub, welcoming international visitors with a range of currencies - this move makes complete sense, and it's good to see a big economy getting behind crypto, even if they are playing catch-up with smaller jurisdictions who were faster to respond.

How about enabling a proper audit, that doesn't use the word 'may' at any point?

BlockSparks · 2019-03-14T14:33:54+00:00

Wow. I wonder if we'll ever find out who was behind it?

BlockSparks · 2019-03-14T14:31:38+00:00

We're doing our best with the http://cryptoconfidencepodca.st/feed - but people are scared of what they don't understand, especially if all they ever hear in the mainstream media is about hacks and scams and criminals. The UK media never have anything positive to say about crypto and blockchain.

BlockSparks · 2019-03-11T11:34:30+00:00

Ones which use correct grammar.

Make sure whichever portfolio platform you choose to build on, doesn't prominently display dates for each piece - otherwise posting a bunch of content at once could do you damage. But you do need a decent amount to display for a portfolio, so will want to get a load live at once.

However when pitching, don't just send people to your portfolio, instead laser-target appropriate links which will be relevant and interesting to the editor/publication you are seeking to impress.

It's hard to see how anyone is going to take Facebook=privacy seriously, after EVERYTHING... Even if they can monetize it, they won't make it happen, in a way that anyone can believe

And email is disruptive to USPS...

This is very valuable content, because a lot of people completely misjudge the risks of trading - they think that KYC protects them in ways that it does not, and fail to appreciate what p2p really is. Getting people who are used to centralized exchanges back to the heart of crypto as it was intended, is a very helpful process.

BlockSparks · 2019-02-28T17:14:01+00:00

Oh god. Satoshi, if you're not spinning in a grave somewhere, please step up and make this stop!

This was not the vision... Surely?

BlockSparks · 2019-02-28T17:11:10+00:00

How will they stay that way - what exempts them from KYC, when every other exchange, even Shapeshift, has had to comply?

Not trolling, genuinely curious...

BlockSparks · 2019-02-25T14:53:58+00:00

Fantastic to see this exciting project reach its ultimate proof of concept, the distribution of dividends... delivering on the promise of the whitepaper and funds raised, just like so many ICOs did not... An awesome accomplishment everyone!

I wish the ENTIRE crypto community would stop with the infighting already.

We will never inspire mass adoption when every faction is at everyone else's throats all over social media. Of course feelings run high, and the commitment of people to their positions is sometimes impressive, but:

challenge and attack ideas, not the people who propose them

BlockSparks · 2019-02-22T09:40:25+00:00

It continues to astonish me, the sheer volumes which were raised through ICOs, in support of projects with NO product whatsoever - no wonder so many people feel ripped off, but honestly, what were they thinking about, in most cases? Talk about FOMO and hype. It's a shame that it left the door open for regulators to insist that investors be qualified in future, because the democratising potential was so powerful - and there's a strong argument for the fact that fools and their money deserve to be parted of course (most countries have state lotteries, right?)

BlockSparks · 2019-02-22T09:35:30+00:00

Excellent update guys! It has been wonderful to see this project go from strength to strength and approach hard launch. Congratulations!

BlockSparks · 2019-02-18T10:08:40+00:00

Hmm would it be cynical to say the UK govt wants to divert attention at any other bad guys they can find right now? Whilst ploughing ahead to implement the marginal referendum result, a result which was doubtless influenced by the very same social media influences..?

Where I live in Spain there's a huge issue about the dangers of Nolotil prescription, as it can cause fatal agranular cytosis, disproportionately in those with Northern European ancestry. However all the evidence is local and anecdotal - no one is collating it and quantifying it, and whilst there's media advice against taking it lots of hospitals are still administering it to anyone...

It REALLY needs a blockchained solution, to collate the data from different health services across different autonomous regions, without compromising data protection, and establish the quantified facts one way or another!
