If we talk about DeFi, then most of the projects that journalists attribute to the DeFi ecosystem are not decentralized. The creators of these projects can block tokens at any address, create white and black lists. The second problem is hamsters. They don’t study, they want to lose money. They invest in a pool of liquidity and do not understand that if the price of one of the assets falls, they will lose money. https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=5276515If you don't know what to invest in, check out the projects in which famous cryptocurrency funds invest, for example Andreessen Horowitz https://a16z.com/portfolio/In any developing industry, fraudsters come first, so before any investment you need to check everything. |

Perhaps a market crash will positively affect the price of bitcoin. Many investors have already invested in bitcoin because they consider it safe to invest. The number of stablecoins may increase. But other altcoins may have problems. Bitmex is in trouble because they wanted to escape to the Seychelles  https://twitter.com/Melt_Dem/status/1311702185303068672 |

Пипец Битмексу пришёл! Комиссия по торговле товарными фьючерами США (CFTC) подала иск против биржи криптодеривативов BitMEX и ее владельцев, включая сооснователя и генерального директора Артура Хейса.
Кроме того, Министерство юстиции США предъявило обвинения Хейсу, Дело, Риду и главе по развитию бизнеса BitMEX Грегу Дуайеру в нарушении закона о банковской тайне. В Минюсте заявили, что Рид, являющийся техническим директором BitMEX, был арестован.Рид был арестован в Массачусетсе этим утром и предстанет перед федеральным судом там же. Хейс, Дело и Дуайер остаются на свободе», – говорится в заявлении.https://ttrcoin.com/cftc-i-minyust-ssha-predyavili-obvineniya-bitmex-i-ee-vladelcam-cto-bitmex-arestovan.11997/Весь пипец заключается в том на бирже 2 млрд долларов (около 193 тыс. BTC) 😳 https://twitter.com/nic__carter/status/1311706827982360576Самое интересное - мультиподпись. Основные средства хрянятся на кошельке с мультиподписью 3/4( трое из 4х должны подписать), а если 2х задержать? Все ломанулись с биржи и выводы не обрабатываются/задерживаются |

Сейчас очень часто хакеры начали взламывать смарт контракты, все эти взломы часто происходит, именно на период рассвет эпохи криптовалют. не всегда, многие наоборот предотвращают взломы Уязвимость Ethereum стоимостью 10 миллионов долларов исправлена Whitehat хакером https://fullycrypto.com/10-million-ethereum-vulnerability-patched-by-whitehat-hackerПримечание: Хакеры, использующие свои навыки для защиты от атак, называются Whitehat «белой шляпой», в то время как хакеры, стремящиеся вывести из строя сети, украсть данные или взломать системы, называются Blackhat «черной шляпой». https://safebreach.com/White-Hat-HackersRatimov спасибо, добавил примечание. |

https://fullycrypto.com/chainalysis-wins-625000-irs-monero-cracking-contractChainalysis Wins $625,000 IRS Monero-cracking Contract "Chainalysis has won one of two contracts from the IRS to create tracing tools for Monero The IRS advertised for candidates last month and has selected Chainalsysis and Integra, a Texas-based company Monero transactions have been almost impossible to trace since the coin’s inception in 2014 Chainalysis has won one of two contracts from the Inland Revenue Service (IRS) to create tracing tools for the Monero cryptocurrency and Layer 2 protocols. The two contracts, worth $625,000 each, were awarded to Chainalysis, one of the pioneers of the blockchain analytics space, and Texas-based Integra FEC. The deal means that Chainalysis and Integra will now work hand in hand with the IRS in tracing Monero transactions they believe are linked to tax avoidance and other similar crimes." I do not believe that they can do it

Although for some we may think that ICOs are already outdated but they are not. Projects in ICO are still existing but you can see a few of them go into success.
The new scam for these projects is now inlining with the Defi market. They can easily create a project and will just list it on swap platforms and it's up to them how they will do the trick.
Swap services allow you to create a pool and sell your tokens, but creating a pool requires a minimum of several hundred thousand dollars. If the price of the token falls, then the liquidity providers will lose money. Read this article https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=5276515Every day 20-40 projects were listed on uniswap, but this does not give any result, except for saving payment for listing on the exchange. Therefore, the creators of the project need to look for buyers for their tokens. |

Anytime I go into my telegram account, I see countless number of airdrop with countless offers but the challenge is trying to know which of this airdrop that is genuine.
Now is not 2017, so they have already come up with other ways to distribute their tokens, for example, farming. A striking example is the SUN token, I wrote about it here https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=5274430I am sure that 99.99% of airdrops are scams or fraud. Block these messages and report spam. In the best case, the amount will be so small that the transfer fee will be higher than the selling price. |

This topic constantly comes up in discussions, read what the famous cryptographer and Bitcoin developer Peter Todd writes https://twitter.com/peterktodd/status/1176313278114476032"It means nothing because Google's quantum breakthrough is for a primitive type of quantum computing that is nowhere near breaking cryptography. We still don't even know if it's possible to scale quantum computers; quite possible that adding qbits will have an exponential cost." I don’t think anything will change in the next 10 years. |

https://decrypt.co/43318/failure-to-launch-devs-need-another-trial-run-for-ethereum-2-0"Failure to Launch: Devs Need Another Trial Run for Ethereum 2.0 The Spadina testnet, meant to focus on genesis block creation, suffered from low participation, partly due to technical issues. The Spadina testnet focuses on genesis for Ethereum 2.0. A lack of user participation combined with technical issues and user confusion meant the testnet didn't start as hoped. Developers will run another trial, Zinken, next week." Now 3 test nets(Topaz,Medalla,Spadina ) will have 1 more (Zinken)  If everything goes right this time, then will be the last testnet version before the launch of the mainnet, right? Seeing that they are meeting participation issues, do you think we are still on track for the mainnet release? I believe that developers have long needed to launch Ethereum 2.0. A Russian proverb says: "If you suffer for a long time, something will work out" I am sure that in the next 1-3 months the developers will launch Ethereum 2.0, but this is not certain |

You are absolutely right, Russia does not extradite its citizens to other states.
But if in Russia the special services find out that these people have money, then they will very simply be taken away.
If this is revenge on hackers from the American intelligence services, then it looks interesting, or is it an admission that Americans cannot do anything
If FSB or a similar agency takes it all away that alone may disincentivize many a thief. In the past Russian hackers (or Ukrainian when Ukraine was still Russia-aligned) have managed to get themselves arrested due to their overconfidence, falsely believing certain places won't cooperate with US authorities or extradite them therein. The list of countries they can travel safely to is now very limited, that in itself is a punishment. A couple of years ago I watched an interview of carders on a YouTube channel. The most interesting thing is that they were without masks, called their names and said that they did not violate the laws of the Russian Federation That is, they do not steal from the Russian people. They were asked many questions about going abroad. They said that they had recently vacationed in Turkey and Europe. In Russia, the law is strict on those who have no money |

Eth2 is expected to launch i n November 2020https://decrypt.co/43188/ethereum-testnet-now-has-nearly-2-million-eth-stakedhttps://ethereum.org/en/eth2/Plans:"Phase 1: the shard chains Expected: 2021 Phase 1 is when we'll meet the shard chains. These are chains that are delegated a portion of Ethereum's transactions and account data. They will be proof-of-stake chains, which means validators (who have staked ETH) will create blocks – not miners like today. We expect to start Phase 1 with 64 shards but they won't support accounts or smart contracts right away. Phase 1.5: mainnet becomes a shard Expected: 2021 Up until Phase 1.5, the Ethereum we use today on mainnet will continue as a proof-of-work blockchain. Transactions will continue to be processed by miners. But in Phase 1.5, mainnet will officially become a shard and transition to proof-of-stake. For end users and dapps, this change should be seamless. Phase 2: fully formed shards Expected: 2021+ In Phase 2, shards should be fully functional chains. Shards will now be compatible with smart contracts and they'll be able to communicate with each other more freely. Developers may even be able to design shards in their own ways." ethereum/github eth2.0-specshttps://github.com/ethereum/eth2.0-specs |

На фазе 2, запуск которой запланирован на 2021/22 год, шарды станут полностью функциональными и совместимыми со смарт-контрактами. Она также включает в себя добавление аккаунтов Eth, переводы и снятия средств, реализацию переводов между шардами и поддержка смартконтрактов. Будет создана среда для масштабируемых приложений, построенных на основе Ethereum 2.0.
Простым пользователям фаза 0 и фаза 1 не принесет изменений. ETH 2.0 будет закрытым клубом до фазы 1.5. Но Виталик говорил что сложно запустить 1 шард, а потом обещал очень быструю скорость развертывания.
Забавно,особенно если учесть что официальная спецификация на сегодняшний день нам говорит: Фаза 2 все еще активно исследуется и не имеет никаких официальных спецификаций."Ethereum 2.0, также известный как Eth2 или «Serenity», является обновлением блокчейна Ethereum" По факту он такое же "обновление блокчейна Ethereum" как "Виталик-первый космонавт на Сатурне".На данный момент "Ethereum 2.0" предполагается только как контракт по шаблону DAO на базе Ethereum ничего общего с самим "блокчейном Ethereum" не имеющий. "На этапе 1.5, промежуточном обновлении, запланированном на 2021 год, основная сеть Ethereum официально станет шардом и перейдет на доказательство доли владения." Только вот официальная спецификация и об этом вообще ничего не говорит. Функции этого процесса там просто отсутствуют. Дальше эти фантазии даже читать не стал... перед тем как критиковать, я бы заглянул на официальный сайт https://ethereum.org/en/eth2/"Phase 1.5: mainnet becomes a shard Expected: 2021 Up until Phase 1.5, the Ethereum we use today on mainnet will continue as a proof-of-work blockchain. Transactions will continue to be processed by miners. But in Phase 1.5, mainnet will officially become a shard and transition to proof-of-stake.

Shards will now be compatible with smart contracts and they'll be able to communicate with each other more freely. Developers may even be able to design shards in their own ways." Мой перевод носит ознакомительный характер, а спецификации у Виталика всегда запаздывали. |

A very positive article on how you can change your life. It's a good thing they didn't buy Bitcoin for $ 20,000 The Bitcoin Family: Still on the Road—After Three Years! https://decrypt.co/43215/the-bitcoin-family-still-on-the-road-after-three-years"Taihuttu trades every day. He’s not devoted to Bitcoin alone, but it still makes up around 65% of his holdings.
