188  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: Sell your house for investment in btc. on: March 27, 2018, 10:44:13 PM
I cannot imagine to do that ( you need to be out of mind) . Remember when you started to invest on crypto, You invest what you can afford to loose. Start with 10K investment, invest on good project and HODL.
189  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Speculation (Altcoins) / Re: Which coin can go to $100 next year? on: March 27, 2018, 10:34:13 PM
You should invest  invest massively  ( after your due diligence ) GAS , LISK , NANO, ICON, HACKEN, PRL. Those project after some months of maturity will skyrocket (or not). I n my personal opinion will go more for project under $1 or around the cent. You can get massive get if you HODL.
190  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: Why is it market manipulation if price goes down and then up... on: March 27, 2018, 09:42:44 PM
 ;)More than manipulation it could be cyclic base on sentiment of the market. But the manipulation could cause as well this sentiment. The whales are accumulating at the same time. Only wick hand falling in the trap and loose money. In fact, crypto are better to be kept for long term than short term.
191  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Bounties (Altcoins) / Best Twitter campaign March,2018 on: March 26, 2018, 10:55:19 PM
Tell me guys what is your best Twitter campaign with good project at the moment for some with more than 600 followers on twitter?
192  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Speculation (Altcoins) / Re: What are the best coins to buy right now? on: March 26, 2018, 10:50:36 PM
In my opinion after the last entry of the best coin of the year, I am waiting the drop down of Wanchain. This coin is going to be bullish some prediction annonce x100 in the future. The best entry point could be around $2 or under.

My favorite after Wanchain

Verge
Trinity Network Protocol
Zilliqua
193  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Speculation (Altcoins) / Re: Ethereum TO $400 AGAIN on: March 26, 2018, 10:44:15 PM
Here we are for me. We are in the $400 zone. It will not be a surprise to see the final drop down before the bull market. That's why I am getting ready to engage on ethereum.
194  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: Will the governments ban all privacy cryptocurrencies ? on: March 25, 2018, 09:40:07 PM
There are many articles talking about banning privacy cryptocurrencies. I think it will not happen, is going to be next to impossible and cuts the nation off from the benefits of decentralization. The better option for government is to embrace cryptocurrencies. The mass adoption will come soon.

196  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Go Network on: March 24, 2018, 03:19:33 AM
What is Go Network

Overview
The rise in Ethereum’s popularity to become the number one alternative to bitcoin creates opportunities for companies to develop their own ecosystem built on top of the Ethereum network.  However, there are some challenges to overcome before mass adoption of the technology can become a reality.  As I have written about before in our previous reports, there are a few problems plaguing the Ethereum blockchain right now. Scalability,- and latency issues are seriously hindering mass adoption at this time.

Furthermore, at present time, Ethereum remains focused on delivering a stable and scalable blockchain technology on desktop computing platforms. As such, much of the new development is not particularly suited to the nature of mobile computing. GoNetworks belief centers on the fact that Ethereum, ERC20 tokens and cryptocurrencies in general require mobile accessibility and interoperability to gain mass adoption​. This belief is based on the fact that Google has said it is now bigger on mobile than on desktop in 10 countries. More than half of Facebook users now connect to the site with just a mobile phone. Mobile has become the primary device for the masses.

 

Who is GoNetwork?
GoNetwork is a team of highly motivated people that want to create a low-cost, low-latency and highly scalable network for Ethereum that can not only be used on desktops, but also on mobile and web platforms.  As mentioned earlier, the blockchain, while extremely innovative, has a few hurdles it needs to overcome to achieve adoption.  For example, the number of transactions per second that most popular cryptocurrencies can handle is extremely limited compared to what’s needed for the technology to be used globally. GoNetwork’s goal is to solve these issues by bringing together a strong team and investing heavily in research and development to build a fast, cheap and scalable mobile-first off-chain transaction network for Ethereum.

The team believes that with the domination of mobile platforms, it is a no-brainer for Ethereum, ERC20 tokens and cryptocurrencies to enable mobile accessibility and interoperability for the public.

Their platform is already in the development process and is expected to launch soon once the technical structures are set up.

What problems are GoNetwork trying to solve?
Scalability for Mobile Computing
Ethereum transaction latency is measured in the order of of minutes and deviates wildly.

Variable Smart Contract Execution Costs
Any updates to the state of the blockchain require gas, including Ether transfers and Smart contract invocation. Depending on network utilization, the cost to execute a smart contract within a time bounds varies greatly.

Limited Mobile Adoption
At present time, Ethereum remains focused on delivering a stable and scalable blockchain technology on desktop computing platforms.

 

What is GoNetworks masterplan to solve these issues ?
Developing State Channels

GoNetwork aims to solve the problems of today’s blockchains by using state channels simular to the approach of Raiden Network. A state channel is a technique that allows two people to start a transaction with one another on the blockchain, and then move off the blockchain chain for unlimited numbers of direct transactions with each other until they are ready to confirm the transaction, which is then done on the blockchain.  State channels can then be further improved to create a network of individual state channels so every user on the network is eventually connected to each other via a series of indirect connections.

Use Case GoExchange

GoNetwork path to mass adoption will be through the development of GoExchange, a virtual goods exchange that will unify app economies across mobile platforms allowing users to seamlessly trade and purchase virtual goods across game ecosystems and between users. GoExhange will leverage the 15m downloads from GoNetworks hit mobile gaming platforms and includes titles such as : Happy Park, 2012 Zombies vs Aliens, Happy Monsters, Flappy Zoo, and Dubsquad. Users of these apps will be able to purchase GoTokens and start using it within all compatible apps to increase demand. GoExchange’s unique go to market strategy aims to reach a critical mass on mobile.

Scalability on GoExchange is provided by GoNetworks state channel implementation. Each  merchant sets up a state channel with their user base. Users can then easily send direct payments to the Merchant. More so, leveraging GoNetworks Mediated Transfer, users are able to send transfers to other users in the Games Network with the Merchant acting as a mediator for transfers.

Further development of Pocket

Pocket is a smart mobile payment platform with both a Merchant and User view, Pocket enables ERC20 tokens​ ​to be used for day to day commerce or for payments within the GoNetwork ecosystem.

Launch of crypto to fiat debit card: the gotoken debit card lets users spend GoTokens anywhere like fiat currency.


How do state channels work?
As described earlier, state channels work in the same way as the payment channels that Raiden network is developing.  Here a short overview of the technique:



When (A) wants to pay (B) multiple times in ERC compliant tokens, (A) opens a state channel.  The channel works by making deposits to an escrow smart-contract. This deposit ensures that (A) is always good for the amount that (A) signs.

Transfers can never be higher than the on-chain deposit which is managed by the smart- contract.  Both participants can close the channel via the smart-contract at any point in time.  (A) deposits tokens on-chain in an escrow smart-contract. Payment to (B) takes place off chain by privately exchanging messages which digitally sign the transfer of value.

To close the channel, (B) submits a valid transfer signed by (A). This transfer is used as cryptographic proof of his entitlement. The smart contract understands this proof and pays out the tokens (B) is entitled to and closes the channel.

A state channel can also be combined into a network where a path connecting any two participants can be found. This allows for payments between two participants who do not have a direct payment channel between themselves. In such a network lots of payments can happen concurrently and independently without the need for global consensus.

Transfers are secure and trustless as they are backed by a deposit on the blockchain in an escrow smart contract.

There is a key difference between the Raiden Network Solution and GoNetworks solution. State channel essentially lock up funds until the channel has been settled/closed. Reducing state channel creation is important; Raiden overcomes problem by creating an overlay network which routes systems through online nodes.

Mobile p2p networks have limited network guarantees as individuals move from region to region, as such, implementing a routing scheme such as raiden is not feasible for mobile network architectures. Instead, GoNetwork implements an incentivization scheme rewarding actors based on the longevity of state channels. Incentivizing long lived channels allows GoNetwork to effectively redistribute the costs of creating state channels back to its participants.

 

GoNetwork RoadMap
I have contacted GoNetwork about their Roadmap, their current Roadmap does not go into details about the development of spites and state channels (which is the most important part of their whole proposed solution).  I was promised by the GoNetwork team to receive an update about it soon and I will update our report accordingly.

 

Team
GoNetwork is a team of highly motivated people with over 30 years of cumulative experience in computer software, mobile apps, game development and blockchain technology. They just won the world’s largest Hackathon ‘ETHWaterloo’, which proves that the team is comprized of young talents who are eager to make a difference in the Blockchain community.

Rashid Khan – CEO
Founder of Infinidy Corp, one of Canada’s leading game development studios. Graduated from the University of Waterloo, Ontario, Canada. Created the biggest iOS theme park simulation game called Happy Park. Over 15 million people have downloaded Infinidy’s games! Founded Dubsquad that became one of the largest video social networks among teens worldwide with over 1 million users.

Amit Shah – CTO
Software architect & Blockchain expert. Graduated from the University of Toronto, Ontario,  Canada. Spearheaded research and development while working at BlueRover as Vice President of Software Architecture R&D. BlueRover is a leading Canadian Internet of Things (IOT) technology company.

XunCai – COO
Graduated with distinction and honours in Software Engineering from the Universtiy of Waterloo, Ontario, Canada. Xun is the co-founder and CTO of Infinidy Corp. He is a serial entrepreneur who has created products that have been used by millions of people and have acquired a large active user base. Led Infinidy to become one of the first companies to join Communitech, Canada’s top digitial media incubator.

Harry Peng – MSc. Computer Science
As a Software Engineer at Google, Harry has worked in the Gmail extensibility platform. He has also lead Android development for the Google Fiber project. He worked as a Software Development Engineer at Amazon on their payment platform.

 

 

Token distribution:



 

How are GoNetwork (GOT) token used?
As a utility token to create state channels: GoTokens are a utility token to create and close State Channels. Opening or closing a state channel requires a small transaction fee that is paid for in GoTokens.

Purchase, trade, sale of virtual goods:  GoNetworks route to market consists of creating an online marketplace to buy trade and sell virtual goods. They are leveraging their already highly popular games such as: Happy Park, 2012 Zombies vs Aliens, Happy Monsters, Flappy Zoo, and Dubsquad to gain traction towards the goal of mass adoption of their technology.  GoToken will allow for transactions within the GoExchange platform.

 

Opportunities
No scaling solutions as of yet: There are currently no solutions to solve the Ethereum scalability and latency issues yet, although there are some ongoing projects that are trying to solve these, such as sharding, plasma and switching the Ethereum network from PoW (Proof of Work) to Pos (Proof of Stake), none of these have materialized yet.

Transaction Speed: If they are able to develop state channels as described in their whitepaper, their solution will be able to handle millions of transactions per second

Ambitious and talented team:  The team behind GoNetwork is undeniably a top team with deep expertise in mobile development and software architecture. Rashid Kahn, the CEO of GoNetwork, is also founder of Infinidy Corp which is one of Canada’s lead developing gaming studio’s. The rest of the team members are equally well qualified and where therefore able to win ETHwaterloo, the world’s largest Ethereum Hackathon.

Existing customer base:  Through Infinity, the company of Rashid Kahn, they already have a target audience with millions of users to kickstart their product once ready. If implemented properly, their solution can accelerate mainstream adoption fast.

My friend you should go for Wanchain.Why ?
Wanchain seeks to link the present to the future, through the exploration and implementation of blockchain technology.

Wanchain aims to build a distributed “bank”. Just as traditional banks are the infrastructure of the current financial framework, Wanchain seeks to build a new, distributed infrastructure of digital assets to form an improved and modern framework.

Wanchain connects and exchanges value between different blockchain ledgers in a distributed way. It uses the latest cryptographic theories to build a non-proprietary cross-chain protocol and a distributed ledger that records both cross-chain and intra-chain transactions. Any blockchain network, whether a public, private or consortium chain, can integrate with Wanchain to establish connections and perform low cost inter-ledger asset transfers. The Wanchain ledger supports not only smart contracts, but also token exchange privacy protection.

With Wanchain, any institution or individual can set up their own virtual teller window in the “bank” and provide services such as loan origination, asset exchanges, credit payments and transaction settlements based on digital assets.

I agree but not entirely. As long the project is not alive, the price will fluctuate or the project fail. So make sure when you are investing to not take too much risk.

I was doing the same at the beginning. Selling off straight way until the market drop down, and I did not make that much . Now, good bounty rewards or very valuable coins will stay in my wallet as long I can make more money. My word is HODL
