1  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Announcements (Altcoins) / Re: Idena is the first Proof-of-Person Blockchain on: August 22, 2022, 03:54:43 PM


Is there any alternative basis that is not as concentrated as capital? It seems that human personhood is the most evenly distributed and scarce resource on Earth.

I love to see innovation and bringing to life new ways of doing things. I'll have to give it a study to understand it.
What about the interconnectivity?
Sovereignty and scalability of this?

That you can find in the Cosmos Ecosystem. Those features of the Cosmos blockchain allow great projects to take place there.
For example the Rebus Chain is bridging TradFi (banks, assets managers, etc) with Defi protocols. For that to happeb, the dev team needs to have FULL control over the chain, and the Cosmos chain allows full sovereignty for that to happen.

The Rebus project https://twitter.com/RebusChain will bring tons of new investors into Defi, coming for their portfolios diversification.

A good and diversified portfolio can help fight the effects of inflation, and Defi can provide new investment opportunities I guess. But it is no easy task to access Defi for newcomers.

Can anyone recommend projects aiming on bringing Defi products for more traditional investors who trust in stocks and assets managers?

Yep. You're lucky because I just stumbled on the Rebus Chain project, on the cosmos ecosystem https://twitter.com/RebusChain they are doing just that, bridging Defi and Tradfi, in order to bring new investors into Defi. Working on the mass adoption!

it is always a good idea to have a diversified portfolio. Defi investment products are a good option, alongside stocks. Have you got some Defi investments?

Even if you are not a Crypto user, or expert, now it is possible to access new and diversified portfolio Defi assets.
The Rebus Chain https://twitter.com/RebusChain is making it possible by bridging Trad and Defi. Traditional investors trust assets managers and other financial institutions. Having those bridged into Defi will raise confidence on them, therefore bringing new money into the Defi space, diversifying their portfolios too.

4. Investment, many uses and money works.

Which money works are you referring to?

Could be investments engineering? Sure people need easy access to different investment products, and Defi can be one gateway for that. The problem is the ease of access to it.
The Rebus Chain https://twitter.com/RebusChain is working on that front, bridging Defi and Tradfi together, to give confidence and raise trust to new investors to access the Defi space.
5  Economy / Economics / Re: How micro payments can help to alleviate global poverty on: August 22, 2022, 03:02:12 PM

Now, as I said, centralized payment systems are much easier, no matter what we simplify. Giving them a centralized system based on Bitcoin is not really a step forward (not your keys, not your coins). And if we add on top the fact that Bitcoin comes with various fees (and I talk about conversion from/to fiat) and its price is fluctuating a lot... I am not sure it will help them. They don't afford to lose any penny.

It is a hard question to solve without centralization. I am a fan of decentralizing, but decentralized systems are also really hard to understand and get access to, for many many people in the 1st world, let alone for other countries.

The solution can be bridging both worlds.

Do you know any projects working with this mindset?

I do. The Rebus Chain https://twitter.com/RebusChain is bringing Defi mainstream, by bridging Defi with Tradfi, bringing new money and new investors into this space.
6  Economy / Economics / Re: What do people think about CBDC? on: August 22, 2022, 02:45:48 PM
Have you got an opinion made about CBDCs already?

Jeez why would we need such thing? We have no need for controlling our lives through money. I am not saying it will happen, but it sure does open a Pandora's Box.
People in the majority still don't have financial literacy, and now will have to deal with CBDC's too?

I think that people need medication, and ease of access to financial markets to get used to save and invest.
Decentralized crypto is a far better option than CBDC's, and projects aiming to bring ease of access to Defi for example, are projects working on the good for the people.

Medication or education? Education is the way to go. Education on personal finances ad investments, raising finacial literacy.
For those people, Defi is still a mistery. The Rebus Chain project https://twitter.com/RebusChain is making it easier to access all of the Defi investment opportunities for people that don't do crypto regularly. Working on the mass adoption theme, I think it will make the Defi space grow.
7  Economy / Economics / Re: Why aren't people utilising cryptocurrency payment methods? on: August 22, 2022, 02:39:15 PM
Maybe because of UX, UI, trust, ease of access, lack of regulations...

What's your take? Not only in payments, but also for personal investments. There are a lot of barriers to entry still, for the "average joe", and I think trust is key to access, for example, the Defi space and investing in these products.

That's true. I agree with those barriers to entry, but especially with the lack of education to access Defi.
The Rebus project https://twitter.com/RebusChain in the cosmos ecosystem is working on making Defi mainstream, by bridging Trad and Defi.
