Analysis of 'jokecoins' and the reasons why people decide to buy them!  😂

https://medium.com/trivial-co/people-actually-pay-money-for-these-useless-tokens-you-must-be-joking-ef14fcb675c4

The article takes a look at Dogecoin (of course), but also some lesser known jokecoins:

- Useless Ethereum Token
- Fuck Trump Coin
- Jesus Coin
- Penis
- FUCK Token
- Cthulu Offerings

Its a powerful network explorer which gives stats, news and advanced search.

Full functionalities outlined in this article - https://medium.com/trivial-co/how-to-use-trivial-co-to-explore-the-ethereum-network-af8848090fd7

Hopefully its useful - any feedback and/or shares much appreciated!

I wrote an article on IoT projects built on top of Ethereum.

Blockchain and IoT are both groundbreaking technologies, that will see increasing adoption in the next few years. By combining them, will they become something even more than the sum of their parts? (HINT: it looks like the answer is YES!)


Let me know what you think about this interesting symbiosis?

There are a number of reasons why using blockchain for borrowing and lending makes sense, especially when it comes reducing fees, cutting out middlemen, and operating in a trustless and transparent environment.

The article below dives deep into the benefits (and drawbacks) of blockchain lending, and thinks about how banks will respond.

It also lists a few of the best projects focussing on this, including SALT, EthLend and Ripio Cedit Network.

What do you think about it - would you take or provide a loan on the blockchain?

Hi there,

I wrote an article about how blockchain and AR/VR are merging together.

Its a really interesting space and some cool projects are just starting out, with actual use cases.

- Decentraland (gaming, digital assets)
- VibeHub (entertainment)
- Cappasity (retail)
- Blockv (advertising)
- Matryx (scientific research)

You can read the full text on Medium - https://medium.com/trivial-co/blockchain-and-ar-vr-a-match-made-in-virtual-heaven-26e54782be56 (Blockchain and AR/VR — A match made in virtual heaven?)

I'd love to know what excites you about AR/VR ?

Hey y’all

I wanted to share I project I have been working on. Any feedback, positive or negative, much appreciated.

Trivial (https://trivial.co/) is an Ethereum block explorer, with a focus on discovering and researching ERC20 tokens. In the future, maybe you will be able to buy tokens directly...

Some of the cool things you can do with it:

- Search for any Ethereum address and see what tokens it holds
- Save addresses to keep up-to-date on transactions in and out.
- Check out top holders of any token
- Check holders of a selection of tokens - eg. find out who hold EOS, QTUM + OMG
- Find out key token info - whitepaper, team, social media, etc.
- Discover tokens by category, and find related tokens

There’s also a feed, where you can keep updated of any news related to tokens or addresses you follow.

Its early beta, but hopefully its a useful resource. Play around with the tool, and let me know if you discover any bugs or anything that could be improved. Suggestions on new features are also very welcome!

Cheers!
