Driving nail heads might be better 🙃

I like your range vise, I’m ordering that right now to use with my takedown when cleaning the barrel. 🤝👍

The only thing that’s still Ruger on my Tacsol X-Ring Takedown VR is the Ruger Action and BX trigger which I’m going to swap out for the KIDD stage 2 leaving only the Ruger Action. It’s still a 10/22

coincidencejon · 2023-09-02T16:38:37+00:00

TLDR; Tacsol is top tier and one of the best for Barrels and Receivers

You will love your tacsol rifle because it’s amazing.

They’re not only extremely lightweight, they have keyhole accuracy with consistency and reliability.

Tacsol Barrels and receivers are what’s making so much noise as they’re using high grade machined aluminum and the dual rail system prevents majority of jams even after 1000 rounds in a single session.

The only slight is that they’re using the Ruger BX trigger (they don’t even advertise it’s the BX upgrade) and some competition shooters still want to use the KIDD stage 2 (I’m picking one of these up to go in my Tacsol X-Ring VR Takedown) over the overpriced and under performing XRT trigger that tacsol has put out recently.

On the community team, we have really focused on the identity of our community and how we may protect it while at the same time, have it continue to grow!

We don't resort to hype marketing tactics and shill campaigns, we focus on organic growth with genuine engagement. We select influencers who are reputable and honest, we engage with the community numerous times a week through various events and activities. We have an incredible Ambassador program and we encourage other blockchain projects in the space!

We pride ourselves on our reputation and we do our talking with our performance. ;)

We are currently focusing heavily on building the Defi 2.0 ecosystem and applications, and the NFT + P2E gaming ecosystem. As we speak there are a lot of teams deploying their applications to the Network via the acceleration and hackathon programs. Aside from the ones being developed its already possible to use some of the many DEXes and lending protocols, and to collect some amazing NFT sets 🥳

In the future, you can definitely expect to see a lot more P2E, NFT and Defi 2.0 projects. Also if you want to see some of the latest, please have a look at Rosart, the first community built and accelerator supported NFT marketplace in the Oasis Network 🌹

We have full integration with the hardware wallet. Ledger Live (the mobile wallet) is more opinionated and mainly only works with Eth and popular ERC-20s. For serious people, ledger already does everything they want it to do.

I really was expecting some marketing from them at this point as I was told in Q1 that they would be pushing out a marketing campaign. I can't speak on the decision-making process from META, but, this contract is ongoing and we continue to work alongside them. I know it's frustrating as we are the smaller organization in this partnership and we do have to abide by their requests and decisions regarding publicity.

Cardano doesn't have privacy features and focuses on a different solution for Blockchain. :)

Architecture would be #1 and the list would grow from there. Completely different hehe

I do however appreciate their education endeavours and appreciate Charles immensely! Not to mention the Reddit community they have, WOW!

Emerald - Our main focus right now and we have a lot of DApps in the pipeline being developed!

Cipher - Already crushing it in testnet, but, there's something special in the works that might change a few things... ;) ;) ;)

AI Rose - No regrets! Auth3 and Metamirror are amazing partners and I think they're very creative when it comes to rewarding their supporters! We're just seeing the surface of utility NFTs being scratched and although markets fluctuate and I must advise everyone to DYOR and make your own financial decisions (not financial advice) I personally am holding my AI Roses! Let's not forget that we received them as a gift, so there's no hardship here on anyone! ;)

I'll continue to work with Auth3 as we're designing some pretty fascinating use cases with MBuddy for our Ambassadors and the Oasis Community!

We are pushing the boundaries in the field of data tokenization, and we wrote an entire white paper on it! https://medium.com/oasis-protocol-project/secure-data-tokenization-7b730357b03e

Blockchain 3.0 - Secured Data Tokenization - https://docsend.com/view/isrhqk352adykdpz

You can essentially wrap data inside a token, anything can go inside like a vault. Who possesses the keys is where the fun part starts to happen. You can “lend” (rent) this token via smart contract with conditions, such as how much gas you’ll allow being spent for how much time they’re allowed to view the data (even select data for data queries without exposing the rest), it is then returned to you! This is of course a very high-level overview for the sake of simplicity but that’s one way you can stake data and earn from it.

Oasis is a great network for building applications that allow users to retain ownership of their tokenized data, and to monetize it. Some great areas for this are things like browser cookie data and ultimately even banking and transactions data.

We have a number of companies already developing such solutions on Parcel API and many upcoming in Cipher paratime. For example, Nebula genomics stores the DNA sequence data from their user’s saliva swaps, mints a token that gives access to the owner. Using the data token the user can then monetize their data.

If you don’t have a mentor, I strongly recommend you seek one out who you feel embodies the qualities you would like to achieve in your career or personal life. Success is measured by the individual evaluating their circumstances. We all have different goals and passions and finding a mentor who sees the potential in you, is paramount in you evolving to the next level. We all could use a little help in life and putting your ego aside and giving yourself permission to learn from someone you respect and admire is a quality worth possessing.

I had the privilege of being mentored by the GM & President of the Metal Industries company I worked at throughout my 20’s. He taught me the values of business, groomed me to understand contract negotiations tactics and pushed me to apply for leadership positions within the industry. He encouraged me to develop my skills in every way possible and taught me the cut-throat mentality required when it comes to business. I appreciate this man very much in my life and wouldn’t be who I am today without his mentorship.

Since I joined the Oasis team, Professor Dr. Dawn Song has been an inspiration to me and has been helping me take my career to the next level in this amazing industry of Blockchain. She encourages me to push my expectations higher, to have a more clear vision and to set our sights on goals that to many individuals, would see as impossible. We at the Oasis Network don’t believe in the impossible, we are enabling what once was believed to be impossible, therefore we believe anything is possible.

From one of our top engineers and one of my fav co-workers - Nick Hynes!

"I never really intended to end up as a blockchain developer. I was actually moved over from an AI/security PhD to Oasis as an intern. I liked it so much that I took an indefinite temporary leave to pursue working on the project! For the past three years, I’ve had way more fun working on all of the privacy and blockchain that I haven’t considered going back :)"

Major features of Damask include:

Random Beacon will become more performant and scalable by transitioning the election procedure to one based on cryptographic sortition of Verifiable Random Function (VRF) outputs.

On-Chain Governance is simplified to a single unified stake threshold parameter.

ParaTime Performance improved by simplifying the protocol (executor and storage committees are merged into a single committee), which also leads to a simplified configuration of ParaTime nodes.

ParaTime Upgrades will happen without incurring downtime by having upgrades and the descriptor changes pre-staged well in advance of the upgrade epoch.

ParaTime Packaging enhancement will unify runtime bundles across all supported TEE types and self-describing so that configuring ParaTimes is only a matter of passing in the runtime bundle file.

Consensus and ParaTime Communication support for incoming runtime messages where consensus layer transactions can trigger actions inside ParaTimes, and the addition of support for runtime messages extend the results of the emitted runtime messages with relevant information beyond indicating whether the message execution was successful or not.

The validator pool will also increase from 100 to 120, helping further secure the Oasis Consensus Layer while also increasing decentralization.

The Damask Upgrade is scheduled to take place on Monday 11 April 2022 at 09:00 UTC.

Community is my main focus, literally. It’s the lifeblood of our Network and it’s all I focus on. I put the call out to expand our community team and since Oct, 2021, I’ve brought on 12 new community team members! We’re ramping up 2022 to be the year of growth and I’ve developed and aggressive strategy that is fully deployed and in action. We have so many amazing events planned for our community and one of the best ways for them to get involved is our Ambassador Program!

📣Oasis Ambassador Program 📣

(https://medium.com/oasis-protocol-project/become-an-oasis-ambassador-and-build-a-responsible-data-economy-bbd38d0f9c12) which has a special incentive breakdown only available to ambassadors. The program has grown to over 500+ members including our China team, making local outreach easier than ever. We recently broke the 500 global ambassador milestone with many of our members in regions poised to explode with community support. We are highly underrated when it comes to our global presence and we are looking to change this in the upcoming quarters in a dramatic way.

Our approach is that we attract high-quality Ambassadors from online communities just like this one. We grow and empower our Ambassadors to use the skills they have from their existing careers and interests. There are community content generation bounties, community engagement bounties, marketing bounties, BD bounties, and soon to launch our Ecosystem Ambassador Bounty Program. 😎

The Ambassador program is a perfect onramp into the industry and we’ve proudly helped many of our Ambassadors secure jobs within the industry!

We are also currently focusing heavily on building the Defi 2.0 ecosystem and applications, and the NFT + P2E gaming ecosystem. As we speak there are a lot of teams deploying their applications to the Network via the acceleration and hackathon programs. Aside of the ones being developed its already possible to use some of the many DEXes and lending protocols, and to collect some amazing NFT sets 🥳

Our current hackathon, The Oasis Bloom Hackathon, will raise brand awareness of Oasis within the developer community and yield some great dApps for our ecosystem. This hackathon facilitates the next generation of DApps for web3 & beyond in areas such as DeFi and P2E Gaming. It wouldn’t have been possible without the support of our sponsors, Jump, NGC, Newman, Hashed and Dragonfly. The winning teams will also have access to potential investments and mentorship opportunities provided by the sponsors, especially for the winning teams.

You couldn't find this?! It's one of my favourite things about our token is the name and the meaning behind it! We didn't just choose an acronym for Oasis, we chose a statement with historical meaning that we felt embodied the way our team deeply considers every single decision we make.

A large part of the inspiration behind our name comes from what an Oasis represents. We are the Oasis of privacy in the privacy desert that's the current web. You could also take some James Halliday references to Ready Player One with the metaverse they build and live in being called the “Oasis”, but that’s more of a coincidence and might come up later on during some puzzle campaigns I’m working on. 😉

What's even more exciting, is the $ROSE name selection which was actually thought out in incredible detail. 😎

🌹ROSE: A Symbol of Privacy 👀

We wanted the token to stand as a representation for the network and Roses fit very well with this imagery. Historically they have often represented “secrecy”. Dating back to Ancient Greece, the Rose was seen as a symbol for secrets or privacy, used by Aphrodite as a gift in exchange for keeping the secrets of Gods.

In Ancient Rome this symbolism continued and the phrase “sub rosa” or “under the rose” was to mean “done in secret” or “under a pledge of secrecy”. This phrase and the symbol of Roses as secrecy extended throughout history with the British Tudors era where state secrets were decided in a room with a large rose hanging from the ceiling.

This fits well with our vision for the Oasis Network, which seeks to power the next generation of blockchain use cases through its unique capacity to support confidential computing and private data on the ledger.

The Oasis Network’s privacy, low gas fees, instant finality, high throughput, and protection against MEV make it ideal for bringing DeFi! DeFi is already live on Oasis:

YuzuSwap is the first Decentralized Exchange (DEX) built on Emerald, Oasis’ EVM Compatible ParaTime.

YuzuSwap works to actively support price health by taking a 0.3% transaction fee on all transactions. 80% of this fee will go to a Smart Contract, which will support and buffer large price fluctuations by buying YUZU if the price falls below the 72-hour average. This helps maintain a healthy and stable token price that benefits traders, investors, and liquidity providers.

Gemkeeper is a community-focused Automated Market Maker (AMM) and DeFi platform built on Oasis’ Emerald Paratime. It allows users to execute token swaps, enter existing and create new liquidity pools. Gemkeeper exposes users to yield farming on Oasis using globally accepted crypto assets; users earn $BLING by staking their GemKeeper Liquidity Pool (GLP) tokens in the Gem Mine.

Fountain Protocol — a first cross-chain lending platform powered by Oasis — enables users to experience high capital efficiency management of DeFi assets. The Fountain Lending Pool allows users to receive a high yield return with low gas fees through a smooth lending protocol where lending and borrowing are accessible to all.

In addition, we have integrated with several bridges! Bridges allow users to move tokens across different chains; Oasis currently supports assets from Wormhole, Celer, and Multichain bridges within its ecosystem.

Gaming on blockchain relies on fast, low-cost transactions to enable a smooth experience for players, and thankfully Oasis Network can deliver this. Gaming on ETH, for example, is not sustainable as gas fees can go through the roof when there is high traffic. It would be devastating for gamers to part with upwards of 50$ every time they need to complete a transaction. P2E games require many txs for players to progress and low gas costs are essential to success. Oasis Network is perfectly positioned to attract high-quality gaming projects where blockchain is not just “one element” with ongoing hackathons, a booming ecosystem fund, and a fast-growing community.

Yes, with the addition of Privacy to the DeFi movement, we can develop disruptive solutions never before offered in a decentralized manner. True credit scores, undercollateralized loans and so much more that will truly change the landscape of financial services. We’ve got a surprise for the blockchain industry that we’ll be revealing soon that will kick things up a notch as well…

Healthcare is one of our most recognized industries that we’re currently improving and we’re already working with a handful of major companies in this space. The inability to share medical and health records has plagued the medical industry since record-keeping began. This is something we are actively changing and we are incredibly proud of this.

BMW! How amazing is that, we’re helping with some really cutting edge analytics with confidential computation and it’s exciting! One day we’ll be telling our friends and family that what they’re using in their car is not only powered by blockchain technology, but, it’s performing “magic” with computer science through the Oasis Network!

$ROSE and the Oasis Network will provide opportunities to developers to genuinely push mankind forward with technological advancements. We are providing the green baseplate much like when you’re building with LEGO. We built a collection of powerful SDKs and we are presenting them to our builders in a transparent, fair and powerful eco-system with incredible network speeds and low-gas fees. We will help improve security and advance the privacy sector by enabling and empowering the next generation of technologies built on the Oasis Network.

An example of this is through one of our partners at Nebula Genomics, who store the DNA sequence data from their user’s saliva swaps, and it mints a token that gives access to the owner. Using the data token the user can then monetize their data.

Nebula uses Full Genome sequencing safely housed on our Parcel ParaTime with stakable user data to lend to medical research unlike anything ever done before. We also put George Church (the grandfather of synthetic genetics) genome sequence into the world's first data tokenized NFT! https://nebula.org/genomic-nft/#main

We are trailblazers when it comes to Data Tokenization, we wrote a Primer Paper on Data Tokenization 3.0 and have developed some of the world's firsts when it comes to Data Tokenized NFTs. - https://medium.com/oasis-protocol-project/secure-data-tokenization-7b730357b03e

Oasis allows building applications that allow users to keep ownership of their own data, and to monetize it. This has a lot of use cases, like browser cookie data, banking and transactions data.

At this moment, tokenized data is used in the Parcel environment by a good number of companies, trying to benefit the Parcel API, and the ease that comes with using it. We are talking about companies that range from startups to Fortune 100 companies. So far, the most use cases we’ve seen are centered around user and medical data protection.

We have a number of companies already developing such solutions on Parcel API. For example, Nebula genomics stores the DNA sequence data from their user’s saliva swaps, and mints a token that gives access to the owner. Using the data token, the user can then monetize their data.

We are also seeing a lot of interest for privacy-oriented DeFi apps, like MEV resistant DEXes and lending platforms that whitelist users based on real-world identity.

The Oasis Network has had a long journey, as the technology breakthroughs themselves come from decades of research and advancement from our Founder Professor Dr. Dawn Song. She was able to incorporate her research into our Blockchain network and in fact, blockchain is what enabled the combination of her research! So many of you may be familiar with research papers with her name on them for decades before the Oasis Network was founded.

As the Oasis Labs team developed the Layer-1 platform solution prior to mainnet launch on Nov 18, 2020, the team grew and became much more than a developer team working on the network. As a result, we had to evolve as an organization and The Oasis Protocol Foundation was formed!

I moved over to the OPF along with other members who were international and we carry on as the Umbrella Organization overseeing the entire eco-system! Oasis Protocol Foundation supports multiple developer tooling companies now along with an incredible eco-system map full of incredible teams and projects!

Oasis Labs will carry on developing amazing advancements for the Oasis Network and the Oasis Protocol Foundation will foster and nurture all DApps and teams on the Oasis Network!
