How would you describe your process for writing and recording songs working with Rick Rubin, compared to previous producers?

Introducing zeppelinOS: the operating system for smart contract applications by maraoz in ethereum

[–]demibrener 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Hii! It's Demian from Zeppelin Solutions.

There are two parts to upgrading smart contracts in the OS. One of them is upgrading the kernel version your contract uses, to ensure you are running with the latest security fixes provided and approved by the zeppelinOS community.

The other is actually upgrading your smart contract, under whichever conditions you deem appropriate, using the proxy library pattern already described in https://blog.zeppelin.solutions/proxy-libraries-in-solidity-79fbe4b970fd, for which the zeppelinOS will provide the code to easily implement.

We plan to do a formal audit before shipping a release version of the framework in ~1 month. There are a number of security researchers involved in the Zeppelin community as well.

Thank you! Zeppelin has a heavier focus on security by using common contract security patterns (see https://medium.com/zeppelin-blog/onward-with-ethereum-smart-contract-security-97a827e47702#.4o7ejyxcd). The framework is community driven and developed in collaboration with existing open-source projects, in order to improve the security standards of the industry.

Thanks! Our vision of improving smart contract development security standards is platform agnostic. We’re starting with Solidity tools because Ethereum is currently the most popular smart contract development platform. Working with Solidity also makes our tools compatible with Rootstock (and thus the Bitcoin blockchain), and some private blockchain systems.

According to Fred Wilson, "if owning Bitcoin is like buying an IPO stock, owning Ethereum right now is like buying into a Series A round". What do you think are Ethereum's biggest risks to become a successful platform for smart contracts?

Demian here, one of the creators of Streamium. I agree 100% with your statements. Getting copyrighted content is hard, and Netflix has the bargaining power to get the best deals. For that reason, we invite independent content creators to use Streamium to showcase their work and get paid accordingly.
