[TGE] Week 13: Blockchain development completed and forthcoming conferences.  The previous week was very fruitful for the GraphGrail Ai team. The blockchain of the chat-bot was completed, and a final description of the smart contracts and supporting tests were also carried out. Further focused and detailed activity of the developers on integration of smart contracts with the GraphGrail Ai system (that is, with the chat-bot itself) is planned for the coming week. The work plan includes the installation of a local blockchain and test environment, the launch of a Rinkeby test network for the functioning of the bot-marker. An important feature of this network is that it will have a test token (unlike the GAI), which will be distributed to the markers. But, at the same time, the data will already be recorded in the blockchain, despite the fact that it will be operating in a test network. https://medium.com/graphgrailai/tge-week-13-blockchain-development-completed-and-forthcoming-conferences-af7394098066 |

DADI and API-First developmenthttps://medium.com/dadi/dadi-and-api-first-development-189b37bed704DADI web services are built around a microservices architecture and strictly to the principles of API First. Why? Traditional product design is channel and device centric. But users inhabit a multi-channel, multi-device world.  Channel and/or device centric product design results in duplicated effort and wasted engineering work. API-first development is focused on removing this technical debt through the separation of the data backend and the data consuming frontend. API-first development is the idea that whenever you are developing a piece of shared functionality for your organization it should be exposed as a RESTful HTTP(S) API to all of your other developers. Rather than creating a library or module that needs to be added to all code bases requiring the functionality, developers can consume all the necessary functionality through the API. Having developers consume all functionality through an API enforces separation of concerns and hides internal complexity. COPE stands for Create Once, Publish Everywhere. It is about reducing editorial overhead by freeing content for use in multiple different contexts. Simply put, COPE separates data from design, making your content reusable and future-proof for new devices or platforms. Taking an API-first development approach enables COPE and brings several additional benefits: *Separation of concerns *Scalability *Reduction of language barriers *Developer liberation and specialization *Openness and future consumer availability *Modularity https://medium.com/dadi/dadi-and-api-first-development-189b37bed704

BANKEX Programmers on Buterin’s “Rent Fees” for Ethereum Storage: Don’t Panic https://blog.bankex.org/bankex-programmers-on-buterins-rent-fees-for-ethereum-storage-don-t-panic-39bbd7a95cd6Ethereum, the № 2 cryptocurrency right after Bitcoin, has announced plans to charge ‘rent fees’ to store data on the Ethereum blockchain. While Buterin’s pay to play concept is straightforward, the announcement has caused some serious brain melt in the blockchain sphere. Many users are upset and are asking serious questions. Other developers, however, offer reassurance that the fees are a natural outcome given the scale of the Ethereum blockchain and even indispensable to ensuring security of user data. According to BANKEX Foundation Development Lead Alex Vlasov, it is also a brilliant idea to switch the Proof of Stake concept into an economically viable mechanism. |

Bermuda and the UK launch Cryptocurrency Task Forces
https://medium.com/@artiedarrell/bermuda-and-the-uk-launch-cryptocurrency-task-forces-5918778aec0Following in Bermuda’s and other countries footsteps, Britain has announced its launch of the cryptocurrency task force. This task force is made up of the Bank of England and the Financial Conduct Authority, which will support and regulate the crypto technology. The Bank of England governor, Mark Carney, believes that everyone should embrace the changes that cryptocurrencies bring instead of trying to resist and ban them altogether. In fact, in his opinion, cryptocurrency should be treated just like any other physical currency. Moreover, Australia has also begun implementing blockchain technologies since December of last year. There will be a crypto-friendly airport terminal hosted at Brisbane as the first airport ever to be compatible with the crypto technology. Australians have also been able to purchase crypto at newsstands all across the country since March 1 2017[rb1] . As we move toward the future with cryptocurrency, we see that there is an ongoing effort to embrace it, as displayed in the United States, Bermuda, Japan, China, and many other countries as well. So, what does that mean for companies that use cryptocurrency as a means of investment? With governments’ involvement in cultivating a crypto-friendly environment, there are signs that cryptocurrency will soon be universally accepted and may become one of the most viable and widely used currencies of the future, even exceeding the use of dollars. This means cryptocurrencies will continue to be valuable and usable, and we expect that their usefulness will continue to grow in the coming years. Therefore, investors through ICOs can be sure that their digital currency can be used widely. To all the companies building solutions in blockchain and cryptocurrency, this is welcome news since they can expect investment through that system to be viable in the future, especially for startups like Horizon Communications. Gilbert A Darrell is the Founder of Horizon. He has 18 years experience in information technology and telecom solutions, a veteran in Fire and EMS Services, a crypto enthusiast and a member of the Bermuda Government’s Cryptocurrency Task Force.

Havven Interview w/ CEO Kain Warwick - How Stablecoins Workhttps://www.youtube.com/watch?v=HZOkZn4fxKcHavven is an ERC-20 token. Together with Nomin, a Stablecoin, the Havven network is trying to solve one of the biggest challenges in crypto: stability. The Havven ICO proposes a decentralised payment network built on a stablecoin to capture all the benefits of a permissionless system, while also eliminating volatility. Havven plans to achieve price stability by pegging the value of the token to fiat, while simultaneously introducing a decentralized collateral system to provide confidence in the value of the tokens. Those who use the stablecoin pay fees to those who collateralize the network, compensating them for the risks of providing collateral and stability. Collateral providers in turn control the money supply, and fees are distributed in proportion with each individual’s contribution to stabilisation. Havven rewards suppliers of stability and charges those who demand it.

[TGE] week 11: GraphGrail Ai interview for the RBC news agencyhttps://medium.com/graphgrailai/tge-week-11-graphgrail-ai-interview-for-the-rbc-news-agency-849dbd60add8March 12 — March 18 Earlier this week, the founder of GraphGrail Ai, Viktor Nosko, gave an interview, which will soon be published on the website of the RBC news agency. The interview gives answers to some questions regarding the project, its history and activities, who owns the intellectual property of the final product and competition possibilities for future users of the GraphGrail Ai platform. The team continued to work on the coordination of the tasks of developing a mobile game (Pixel Gun), and prepared product presentations for game managers. The tasks of the developers were divided into two parts. The first part consisted of the compilation of common problems related to crashes in the game, and specific problems related to certain types of weapons. The second task was related to sorting bugs based on their criticality. I met with a representative of Pixel Gun for coordinating the tasks of working on markup. The meeting approved the priorities of the most critical bugs (game balance, combat balance and balance in matchmaking), as well as a new structure of categories for the identified bugs. A plan was formulated for the marketing activities of the campaign in YouTube, effective channels (top-notch YouTube in the field of crypto-currency) were defined, and material was formed based on the description in github provided by the developers of GraphGrail Ai for future placement in articles and on YouTube.

Wireless network makes the old copper telephone & cable networks obsoletehttps://medium.com/@artiedarrell/wireless-network-makes-the-old-copper-telephone-cable-networks-obsolete-dacbfeddd36fIn an era of the advancement of technology, it is hard to believe that most of the world lives without access to the internet. The Internet has become part of life for millions of people around the globe. Different types of internet connections have emerged to fulfill the users’ needs; most notably are wireless networks and wired networks. With the current dominance of wired networks, many people are still skeptical about switching to the wireless network. As a company with ambitions to become a leading internet provider, Horizon Communications will change your mind about how an ISP network can be implemented. Horizon Communications comprises of a team of dedicated people who will deliver a high speed and reliable internet across the country, including remote areas. They are working to achieve the goal of making an internet connection more accessible to anyone and everyone. But how can another type of Internet connection be more accessible than today’s systems of connection? The answer? It is the wireless network. Without the need for cables, internet access will become much easier. It is well observed that wireless networks can enable more devices to be connected to the internet at the same time while wired network requires cable to be hooked into each device to allow them access to the internet. A wireless network, on the other hand, makes it possible for users to roam freely with their laptops, smartphones, and tablets as long as you are in the range of the connection. This is how convenient a wireless network can be. With the complication of reliance on cables for a connection, a wired network is prone to damages when disaster strikes, (storms, floods, other natural disasters for example) This makes choosing the best option for your internet connection very important. Horizon Communications will be able to repair issues very quickly should disaster strike, with wireless ISP’s in the Caribbean during the past 2017 hurricanes able to rebuild within weeks. Many people still argue that speed over wireless networks tends to be slower than that over cable. While this is true in most cases, Horizon Communications are adopting technology that was originally used by major cell phone carriers, with LTE allowing 150mbps today with further advancements just around the corner. With the incorporation of blockchain technology, Horizon can bring additional features of speed, reliability and scalable not to mention the amazing advancements we are seeing in blockchain. With Horizon, our customers will find an ISP that should be the standard world-wide. We are proud to ensure that as an outstanding company in providing high-speed internet Horizon Communications will be able to deliver the fast and reliable wireless internet connection to our customers and expand globally. Gilbert A Darrell is the Founder of Horizon. He has 18 years experience in information technology and telecom solutions, a veteran in Fire and EMS Services, a crypto enthusiast and a member of the Bermuda Government’s Cryptocurrency Task Force.
