🔥 As the digital ledger that we most commonly know as "Blockchain" is starting to take us over more and more, mentions of things related to it with equal benefits are starting to rise.

💰 One of those most common things is DeFi - decentralized finance.  The latter is a blockchain-based version of traditional finance that is yet different from it; it doesn't require relying on intermediaries.

🌐 It allows financial products to become available even for the general public, all of which are in a decentralized blockchain network. The only "middleman" here would be the software that you'll be using, not some other person trying to potentially take advantage of you.

😎 Surely, this alone must pique people's interests. Imagine the possibility of doing what you want and actually being in control,  that, being in a promising ecosystem that keeps getting better by the day. This is a thing that BTCU constantly aims to accomplish, which is why DeFi is one of BTCU's most recent focuses.

The market is more accessible, you have the opportunity to get acquainted with cryptocurrencies and all the new trends that are bound to change the way we see the economy - what else could one hope for❓

🔹️ A BTC hard fork refers by definition to a change that occurs to BTC's blockchain which ends up giving us two split branches. One that is following up on the previous protocol, and another that matches the new version we've obtained.

These new versions of BTC are completely split from the original, as neither fully matches the other. They usually see the light of day to "improve" some of the aspects in which Bitcoin is undeniably lacking.

💪 The most recurrent examples would be BTC's mining massive energy consumption, wobbly scalability, and more-than-often questionable anonymity. Because yes, perhaps it might be today's most popular cryptocurrency, however, the potential "risks" that come with it make you question whether it is truly worth all the fuss.

But this is where BTCU comes into action. Because you see, perhaps there are forks such as Bitcoin Cash that address Bitcoin's scalability, Bitcoin Gold that takes head-on BTC's mining issues, or even Bitcoin Private (BTCP) that ensure users privacy, but none of these "solutions" were ever combined or put together for maximum efficiency - BTCU however, is here to change that.

😎 The BTCU blockchain is similar to the Ethereum concept that generally opposes standard overpriced mining methods. The additional functions that set it away from the other BTC forks are the creation of smart contracts as well as native atomic swaps as the basic principle for the implementation of transactions.

 At the end of the day, this introduces a new level of creation and development of dAPP solutions, with measures that make it more comfortable for the user to have and everything simply much easier. Because for BTCU, what matters to most are not only the results but also the means❗

🔵 NFT means non-fungible token. These tokens are digital assets that allow us to obtain special items that can either exist in real life or digitally. These items can be extremely different and range from collectibles, videos, music, and even works of art.

Each item will have for sole owner the person who managed to obtain them, which we can be thankful for due to the NFT build in the metadata, which officializes the ownership and registrates it on a blockchain.

💰 Now, some people might believe that NTF’s aren’t a thing and that they don’t have much of a value, but fact of the matter is they do - the NFT phenomenon is real. The most obvious examples would be people who sell their arts for millions of dollars or even tweets and videos, and you know what? They really end up being sold, which just proves how much success NFT's have.

🚀 All of this, is the reason why BTCU decided that developing the tokenization of assets as NFT would allow people more freedom, liberty and security when it comes to their assets, but also an immense potential of growth in an extremely high value market.

Because with BTCU, the future is now❗

💠 The development of a next-gen blockchain is no easy feat, nor is it a project that can be completed in a single day or two.

👍 The BTCU team is constantly working on breaking out of the typical norms we’ve been used to. Thus far, features such as smart contracts, leasing and staking, and private transactions in a single decentralized network have been implemented.

💪 Concerning future endeavours, more details will be given as we go on. A quick example would be atomic swaps, which are being developed as the ecosystem grows, although, for the time being, the BTCU platform is more focused on project building as well as the tokenization of assets as an NFT, especially for real estate.

😎 Aside from that, so far BTCU has been in numerous partnerships such as with World smart Cities Forum, the citiesabc part of techabc platforms smart cities index and there are plans for further partnerships which will be revealed later on. The project keeps growing and the team keeps giving its best at every turn. You can expect soon enough more network testing and a switch to a non-linear protocol as well as more focus on mobile wallet pilots.

Stay tuned in❗

🌐 A few years ago, people would have made a mockery of you if you told them you hold part of your investment portfolio in cryptocurrency. However, reality has changed on the subject of alternative investments, and cryptocurrency is leading the way.

Why❓
There are many reasons for that. Thus, the financial aspect, and of course, the potential of blockchain technology.

🔹️ Next-gen blockchains, notably, BTC Ultimatum (BTCU), offer more than a simple investment opportunity.  Whether it be smart contracts, leasing and staking, or even complete anonymity - BTCU has it all. Plus, to top it all off, it's not even limited to those aspects alone.

Dear Community❗️

🤗 We invite you to another OpenbusinessCouncil & BTCU powered event: NFTs BUSINESS LIVE on the 26th of May at 13:00 UK Time. The event will stream live on Dinis Guarda's (BTCU Strategic Development Officer) YouTube channel.

😎 The event will gather top industry leaders and experts in blockchain and innovative companies like Eric Ma (CEO of BTC Ultimatum), Patrick Tan (CEO & General Counsel for Novum Alpha), Javed Khattak (Business Consultant & an award-wining CFO), Prashant Suranba Jain (Founder of Snapper Blockchain Technology & Innovation) and the moderator, Dinis Guarda (Executive Chairman openbusinesscouncil)

📽 You can watch the live event on Dinis Guarda's YouTube channel, on Wednesday 26th May, at 13:00 UK Time.

💪 We presume it’s better late than never. Thus, in today’s #AsEasyAsBTCU episode we’ll touch on Multileasing and be rest assured - we give you all the information you need.

💠 You may have heard that the Ultimatum PoS does not only support standard staking capabilities but also allows delegating staking (leasing). All this was done to enable users of the network to earn profits. At the same time, it improves the decentralization of the network by determining the level of trust in masternodes and validators. This gives participants of the network opportunity to choose which masternode to transfer coins for leasing.

💰 The accruals take place on the main balance with the ability to immediately use the interest without the need to close the lease. In addition, the bonus continues to accumulate for each subsequent generated block. Rewards accrued on the main wallet means that the users can use their coins including multistaking.

😃 Each network user can lease coins an unlimited number of times, regardless of the number of previous charges. If the user already has an active lease, he can add a new lease at any time by buying coins or transferring those that were already on their balance.

👍 In the case of multileasing, the user will be charged a commission equal to the commission for the transfer between addresses on the current block. Whereas, these terms of the commission apply only to multi-leasing operations. In other cases of leasing, no commission is charged.

😉 We hope this information was useful and clear.
Don't forget to send us your feedback❗️
And see you in our next episodes, BTCU battalion❗️

📢 BTCU is providing more partnership opportunities❗️

ℹ️ As you are fully aware, the BTCU UPoS (Ultimatum PoS) consensus algorithm is a combination of Leased Proof of Stake (LPoS) and Proof of Authority (PoA), whereas the last component, PoA - is for validating and block generation. Therefore, everything is based on validators or masternodes operators.

😎 According to the BTCU validator economics, the first 10 validators will include large exchanges, cryptocurrency projects, and development companies. The remaining validators are elected as partners or advisors. Each is independent of the other in terms of block creation or voting decisions.

📌 NOTE: When you request the role of a validator, it is required to receive unanimous approval from all validators on the network.

🔹️ Prospective BTCU validators should be able to comply with this requirement:
-Perform staking in the amount of 1,000 BTCU coins - and lease at least 10,000 BTCU coins.

As a runner of a validator, you play an integral role in maintaining the BTCU network and will be an important voice in the future of the network.

Interested❓(We hope so!)
➡️ Don’t hesitate to reach out to us at validator@btcu.io.
😉 We'll be happy to assist you.

Greetings, BTCU battalion❗️

☕️You know we could not wait to release another #AsEasyAsBTCU episode❓
You need to grab a coffee or tea before we proceed to our main theme of the day: Project tokenization and DeFi.

The integration of EVM (Ethereum virtual machine) technology into the BTCU network allows the implementation of smart contracts on the well-known Solidity, providing enormous opportunities for project tokenization or DeFi implementation.

💠 Despite the high gas fees and poor scalability, the Ethereum blockchain is still regarded as the leader of DeFi applications. High transaction fees,  technical node problems, oversupply of contracts, and network centralization are some of the most terrible threats to the modern blockchain and cryptocurrency community. This has prompted developers all over the world to find an alternative solution, one of which is BTCU.

What’s DeFi, btw❓
It is short for Decentralized Finance. Decentralized Finance includes digital assets, protocols, smart contracts, and dApps built on a blockchain. Think of it as an open financial ecosystem where you can build various small financial tools and services in a decentralized manner. Since these are applications built on a particular blockchain, they can be combined, modified, and integrated according to your needs.

BTCU is a decentralized, smart contract enabled blockchain that provides for anonymous transactions, leasing, high transaction speed and low fees. That open up new possibilities for implementing smart contracts and project tokenization/DeFi, based on similar technology as Ethereum. This allows anyone to implement their project efficiently on the network and also transfer existing ones.

Is today's #AsEasyAsBTCU post useful❓
Don’t hesitate to rate, comment or share it with your friends😏.

👋 Hello BTCU community,


The word is already out that the BTCU team has developed a solution that meets all the requirements of the modern cryptocurrency community. And this very solution  - what a surprise - is the Bitcoin Ultimatum (BTCU) blockchain.

💠 BTCU offer masternodes, a set of incentivized nodes within the network. They are responsible for the handling of particular specialized tasks. The main purpose is to maintain the stability of the network, allow users to earn leasing profit and provide long-term returns to masternode operators.

What opportunities does Masternode status give? It gives the ability to lease coins from users, which increases the speed and security of the network.

Do you want to set up a masternode❓ Check the terms below:

🔹️ Perform Staking in the amount of 100 BTCU coins
🔹️ Keep at least 1000 BTCU coins in lease.

➡️ For more information, don’t hesitate to contact us via masternode@btcu.io

🔥 Another #AsEasyAsBTCU episode quick to be published

Dear readers, do you remember our explanation of smart contracts? There is another essential feature to be talked about in this relation. This time we’ll focus a bit on URC-20 invented by BTCU.

💠 The difficulty in the operation of Ethereum lies in the enormous concentration of contracts, moreover, there are many duplicates of widely known projects that undoubtedly creates a field for fraud and unstable large commissions for creating smart contracts or executing transactions.

Indeed, the market requires a solution to this problem, and one of them is URC-20. Decentralized network consensus eliminates this problem due to validators and commission control, avoiding large surges in commissions and increasing network resiliency by reducing the flow of contracts into it.

👍 The same technology - Remix, will be used to deploy the contract to the network or build it. BTCU will allow us to launch contracts and develop them on the already familiar Solidity technology. Friendly development, time-tested technologies integrated into a decentralized network to open up further opportunities for smart contracts.

Was today’s review helpful❓
👌 You can pick the next topic, and we will be glad to delve fully into it.

🤓 We are back with a new and long-awaited #AsEasyAsBTCU episode❗️
Recently, we’ve talked about atomic swaps, aka atomic cross-chain trading. We learnt that they are based on smart contracts and enable users to trade directly from their wallets.

Now, what is Smart Contract aimed at❓
Let’s find this out. To put it simply, smart contracts are the basic constituents of blockchain, which allow users to create decentralized applications (Dapps).

Each network user can create a smart contract by implementing it according to EVM (Ethereum Virtual Machine) standards. A special programming language called Solidity is used for this purpose to create smart contracts in the BTCU network.

🔹️ To create a smart contract, users must specify the conditions for its functioning and methods of interaction with the network. To add a smart contract to the network, the user needs to complete the transaction of adding the contract to the network and pay a commission not lower than the minimum. To conduct transactions within a smart contract (transfer of tokens), the user needs to specify the recipient's public address and sign the transactions with his private key. The user pays a commission for conducting transactions within a smart contract.

One of the advantages of integrating EVM (Ethereum virtual machine) technology into the BTCU network presents an opportunity for assets tokenization or the implementation of DeFi (or Decentralized Finance).

👍 The effective development of customizable smart contract templates and the expansion of their functionality is the key to implementing blockchain technology in business processes, without which the technology itself cannot develop.

😉 That's all for today. Don’t hesitate to send us your feedback! See you around, BTCU tech explorers❗️
