1  Bitcoin / Development & Technical Discussion / Re: Which consensus is more promising, in your opinion? on: May 20, 2023, 03:14:06 PM
In your opinion, what is the best?
Most of these consensus mechanisms in your OP has at least one or all of these, which is it is centralized, permissioned, prone to censorhip, supports identity exposure and has weak security for its blockchain, and the cryptocurrencies that use some of them are small and unsafe. But the BTC proof of work consensus mechanism is decentralized, permissionless, very secure and censorship resistant, because anybody can become a node or a miner without any verification, so which is the best?


I totally agree with you. And what if we bring it to the TradFi world, where people need to do day-to-day shopping? How can we integrate it?
2  Bitcoin / Development & Technical Discussion / Which consensus is more promising, in your opinion? on: May 20, 2023, 12:58:46 PM
Nowadays we have so many different consensus types, like:

- PROOF OF WORK
- PROOF OF STAKE
- DELEGATED PROOF OF STAKE
- PROOF OF CAPACITY
- PROOF OF ELAPSED TIME
- PROOF OF IDENTITY
- PROOF OF AUTHORITY
- PROOF OF ACTIVITY
- BYZANTINE AGREEMENT

And there are probably others who are not even here but are running right now. In your opinion, what is the best?

Or the right question should be, "Are they designed for the specific purpose for which they are committed to delivery, or are they only a way to try to look different with some backup reason behind it?

All of them offer benefits and some lack them, but in your opinion, which one is more promising, and why?
3  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: If I have $40,000 to invest in one #cryptocurrency. on: May 20, 2023, 12:29:03 PM
Probably MATIC > LINK > SHIBA (we never know how this memecoins can get hyped).

I believe Matic has the strongest power of valorization in comparison to all the others. Only time will say so.

Do not do it. If you still haven't made money by bitcoin it's probably because you don't know how to. If you do it, you will probably loose your money and will still have to pay the loan. Learn how to do swing trade or keep investing small quantities. I'm telling you this based on self experience where I colletarized some borrow to invest. Result? The market melted, I lost the collaterilization. Avoid putting your self in bad situations with bank, friends and family. Start small.
5  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Tokens (Altcoins) / Re: [ANN] GOLD - First 100% Liquid Stablecoin Backed by Gold on: May 16, 2023, 07:55:12 PM
How can we know or have better information about the gold that is being stored? Why is not available in any DEX?
6  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Tokens (Altcoins) / Re: [ANN][WIRE] Open Blockchain for Supply Chain Transparency on: May 16, 2023, 12:45:59 PM
Why did you guys came up with the idea of developing a blockchain instead curating the products and building the DAO in an existing one?
