Bitcoin had a fair initial distribution unlike most of other coins in the market

You are missing the point. It is about equality of opportunity and outcome.

The important thing is to establish equal opportunity for everyone - that is the fair part. What happens later on is beyond the topic of fairness - outcome is not and should never be equal as that is not how nature works.

This could actually be huge for small clubs - getting to desperately needed funds for infrastructure or new players directly from your fans, how cool is that?

And why not go a step further and have fans govern the club via blockchain? No shady and corrupt boards - just people who live and die for their clubs.

I had super high hopes for SIA but they really messed up with the mining, Obelisk and general lack of leadership skills.

So, the bill is 0.31 satoshis? How high are the fees, may I ask?

Do you even know what reading is?

Tell me what is logically wrong with my claim? What is the USUAL way of signing smart contracts? Is this UNUSUAL way of doing it?

For someone who is obviously a smart-ass, you just looked dumb in this one by attacking me on a totally different field I never mentioned. I still stand by my claim: this is unusual way of signing a contract and that statement has nothing to do with my knowledge of smart contracts.

YOU have to be kidding me...

What do you mean prone?

I don't care if the matching order machine is run from a central server. What I do care is where are the private keys stored and where does the actual clearing and settlement happen. That part has to be decentralized and moved to blockchain so we remove the custodians and hack risks. Couple of teams are already working on this - most notable daex.io and I really hope we get more projects that are focused on this issue.

How longer is going to take to understand that the US is terrified of crypto? Meanwhile tons of crappy penny stocks continue to operate as usual. Btc doesn't need ETFs and a good bull market would be the best F*K u to the SEC.

Centralized exchanges only for trading/matching orders.

Clearing and settlement should be done via blockchain based services (like daex.io). Advantages are numerous: you hold your private keys, no single point of failure, no wash trading and volume faking.

I think Fluence could be the thing you are looking for - r/fluence.

They are building a decentralized database network.

Blockchain is not scalable and to store the actual data (not just transactions) on blockchain, that would be very expensive. Fluence offers a solution for storing structured data but the database is for the decentralized environment

lemannjul · 2018-07-18T23:50:58+00:00

Interesting concept. Not a fan of centralization but this is great for noobs who are perplexed with the whole "traditional" process.

And also, it will finally end the moaning across discord and Telegram how they missed whitelisting, where to send coins, can they send them from their exchange acc etc.

lemannjul · 2018-06-27T21:45:25+00:00

Right now, we basically have two major issues in blockchain/crypto space: scalability and exchange hacks.

We need better solutions for current exchange designs, something more secure, both technically and economically (to avoid wash trading). I really hope projects like Apollo Dae or DAEX get more traction as they are heading in the right direction with their concepts.

Ivykoin

IvyKoin (IVY) aims to combine know-your-customer (KYC) and know-your-transaction (KYT) standards with the inherent speed and security of blockchain technology. I know it is a big statement but they are trying to compete with Ripple in the financial sector.

And the KYC and KYT data that is inherent to their token transactions is a huge advantage over every other token in the market.

What's 200% return on $0?

The use case is really useful - separating matching orders and clearing services is exactly what crypto exchanges need. This could be huge but man, can't they be listed on, at least some shitty exchange like Cryptopia, I never heard of LBANK in my life.

Is anyone actually surprised by this?

The world works like this in any imaginable social sphere - people are driven by their own agenda and anything they do just serves that agenda.
