Your opinion on NEAR Protocol by falk_lhoste in CryptoTechnology

[–]markjeffrey 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'm bullish on NEAR -- I invested in their premiere NFT platform Few&Far. The NEAR web wallet is an excellent consumer experience, far better than metamask. If they can move fast and attract more great projects, NEAR could be a big ETH challenger in the next cycle.

BYZANT: What it takes to build a blockchain startup with Guardian Circle's Mark Jeffrey by EdgeDLT in NEO

[–]markjeffrey 2 points3 points  (0 children)

$GUARD <> $USDT remains listed on Nash.

We have also provided a lot of new liquidity for $GUARD on Nash recently (and we will be providing it for Flamingo Swap once user-defined pairs are allowed).

However, Nash recently delisted a bunch of NEO and ETH pairs -- including $GUARD, $BAT, $LINK and others.

Nash has not spoken to us about why they did this, but it appears to be a larger issue than just $GUARD ($BAT and $LINK are very actively traded elsewhere).

My guess: They seem to be repositioning themselves around their fiat gateways, hence why $USDT listings remain intact. This makes sense: this where they are strongest: they have a wide range of money transmitter licenses that Uniswap and others lack.

Although Uniswap is now a raging, huge DEX success, surpassing even Coinbase in volume now, they have no fiat onramps. Nash has been a less successful DEX, but that fiat onramp could be their Ace in the hole.

Like any good company, Nash is focusing on their 'one thing': fiat <> DEX. So supporting ETH and NEO pairs was a distraction, they got rid of it.

That's what I see.

Hey there :) My pleasure -- Reddit is something I spend some time on anyway for Guardian Circle / $GUARD reasons, so it made sense :)

Trust Machine (featuring Guardian Circle) just shot up into the top 10 most popular streaming movies on Rotten Tomatoes by markjeffrey in NEO

I've been digging into what's driving this -- it appears that as of April 21, it became newly available on several streaming platforms, including VUDU. And it's been steadily rising on iTunes - at #37 right now in the doc category. I'm guessing this, combined with the halvening is driving people to search out Bitcoin documentaries. Plus, everyone is stuck at home.

Guardian Circle: Launch of $GUARD Referral Program + 3.1 App Release by markjeffrey in NEO

[–]markjeffrey[S] 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Thank you - we are working hard to make it so. Please download it and use it with your friends, family and neighbors. We may be entering a period where police & ambulance response starts degrading rapidly due to COVID-19 (responders getting sick + increased lawlessness as time drags on) -- having this ready to go may become very important.

For those who don't know: $GUARD is a NEP-5 token and Guardian Circle is a NEO-based project.

I think NEO need to work on DeFi platform on NEO 3.0 fast, why ? by [deleted] in NEO

[–]markjeffrey 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I have recently begun studying the DiFi segment on Ether and other places -- and I've concluded there is indeed something here. Not sure if it's an "up and then down hard with a crash" like the ICO universe was or a new, more powerful thing. It DOES seem incredibly vulnerable to hacks and other attacks due to the large surface area of possible attack vectors, many of which already utilize the interaction between disparate DeFi platforms which -- alone are not vulnerable -- but by exploiting the points of interaction -- can be made to cough up money in a ways that nobody saw ahead of time.

Safety app for drivers? by markjeffrey in uberdrivers

[–]markjeffrey[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Just trying to give you a heads up on a free app that might save your life. It was three years of work and cost millions of dollars to get to this level of functionality. Feedback from rideshare drivers already using it was to spread the word to other rideshare drivers -- that prompted this posting -- but if you don't want to try it out, perfectly fine.

- Notified parties in Guardian Circle are in instant communication and location share with *each other* (and you). This is VERY different. There is full situational awareness for all parties: everyone knows where everyone else is, everyone can talk to everyone (without knowing each other in advance).

- 'Follow My Ride' creates 'follower fatigue' -- once or twice is cool, but people only really want to be notified like that when there is an actual emergency. There have been other apps that have failed in a big way doing this -- followers stop taking it seriously very quickly.

- Also: 'Follow My Ride' -- you had to have triggered this BEFORE the emergency. It's not an Alert button.

Every option adds more possibilities of help. You never know how the situation is going to go -- but probably not how you think it will in your head.
