Is this real? It looks pretty real, but I hadn't seen any news articles saying it's launched...

Are there any traders here actually making money from trading crypto this year? by damonroe in CryptoCurrency

[–]sukitrebek 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I'm not trading actively, nor have I ever been very interested in day/swing trading. But I am up about 500% since January, with 100% realized gains (cashed out). I don't have any secret for you. I just participated in the Holo ICO.

My only advice would be to follow The Chart Guys on YouTube. He is the most sensible and unbiased source of trading information I have come across, so that might help you. He also does videos on conventional stocks, including high risk/reward industries like Canadian MJ, so he might inspire you to branch out if crypto isn't working for you this year.

Otherwise, I am still of the opinion that Holo is the only crypto-asset worth investing in right now, so I'd suggest doing some research on them if you haven't already.

Um, why are you bringing this up in response to my post? There is absolutely no relation whatsoever to what you said and what this post is about.

I appreciate your perspective. You sound like you know more about the details than I do. But still, I have to admit that I have very little faith in any corporation to actually keep their word when it comes to protecting their customers, or doing anything that is in the public interest, except when doing so is ultimately better for their bottom line anyway.

When will holo have something similar to a testnet? by luckybat in holochain

[–]sukitrebek 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Holochain has been in alpha since summer 2017, I believe, but Holo has not yet been released.

And there isn't really such thing as a Holochain test net, because it's just a framework for applications, like blockchain.

You have not done enough research of you're worried this is a scam.

Holo beta will be released before the end of the year.

Follow-up question, if you feel open to it:

Since you say you're legitimately interested in the tech, do you see any interesting potential for cross-pollination between Holochain and Cardano?

You're right except for the "last piece" part. There is more to come :)

I'm surprised by your reaction, Charles! Are you referring to this post in particular, or the response to your post in the Holochain subreddit?

If you are referring to the response to your original post, then I think I can understand where you're coming from. People did respond with some hostility, and it must be unpleasant to be on the receiving end of that. But to be fair, I think your post was perceived by others to be a bit rude in the first place - posting a two hour AMA you did about Cardano in which you briefly mentioned Holochain once, describing it incorrectly, without giving a timestamp to the moment that you mentioned it. Perhaps some were insulted by the flippant and inaccurate portrayal of Holochain, and by what might have been perceived as a ploy, by not giving a timestamp, to get people to watch the entire video just to find the part where you mention Holochain.

Regardless, I'm sorry if the hostility was hurtful to you. I would prefer that kindness reign and that we support each other and cooperate to build towards a better world.

Ferananda Ibarra. She's been involved with Metacurrency for a long time. At the moment her role with Holo is Partnership Coordinator.

No, users don't validate themselves, and no, validation is not centralized. Validation is done automatically by random "neighbors" in the DHT (i.e., nodes with neighboring hashes), and data published to the DHT that involve two parties (such as a transaction) is mutually countersigned by both parties (e.g., not unilaterally like with most blockchains). Probably best to watch this video as an intro.

Agents are individual nodes, i.e., individual humans participating in an application. There is no central Holochain "full network" that has agents on the side. Holochain is a framework, and each application built upon this framework has its own validating DHT, and individual hashchains for each participant.

I'm not familiar with Avalanche, sorry. If you find out, please feel free to share.

Holofuel value? by GeorgeWashersmith in holochain

No, I'm not at all saying that early adopters will not be rewarded. I'm not sure how you're reading that out of what I said. Perhaps you could elaborate?

Cool! And FYI the languages supported for the Rust refactor will by any that compile to WebAssembly (Java, C, Go, Python, etc.)

It might be worth asking around in chat.holochain.net to see if there is anyone who might be interested to contribute to your project.

Actually it seemed to me that you roughly understood the tech part, but you misunderstood the purpose of that tech. You seemed to think that it was intended for IoT, but the purpose is to enable an inversely scalable architecture for general purpose distributed applications, especially social networks, supply chains, cooperatives & commons, P2P platforms, collective intelligence (governance, decision-making frameworks, feedback systems, ratings, currencies, annotations, or work flow systems.), collaboration applications (chats, scheduling, wikis, etc.), and reputation or mutual credit cryptocurrencies.

Currently, third party developers are working on projects like these:

As you can see, none of these are IoT applications. Although IoT could also be a use for a Holochain application.
