Bitcoin succeeds because it proves its inability to change. It just exists whether you like it or not and you can't control it or change the rules to your liking. This is how Bitcoin won the blocksize war from 2015 - 2017. Below is a quick-ish and concise summary of Jonathan Bier's book on the Blocksize War. A disagreement about how large blocks of the blockchain should be, how easy it should be to change Bitcoin's rules, and ultimately it was about control. https://www.bitrawr.com/bitcoin-block-size-debate-explained

I started a free-to-use and open-source project aimed at consolidating BTMs on a world map. There are a lot of services that do this already but none are open-source and all require BTM owners or operators to pay monthly retainers to be listed on their sites. I wanted to change this model. Operators and owners can add their ATMs to the open-source repository for free to be seen by the world live on this page. https://bitrawr.com/bitcoin-atmsProject details: https://github.com/alonshvartsman/bitrawr-geojsonWould love to hear feedback on this project. |

I created a site called www.bitrawr.com to do just that, list the safest exchange to buy Bitcoin in each country. What am I missing? |

I've been building an open-source Bitcoin ATM map for a couple of months now and have listed over 2000+ working ATMs => www.bitrawr.com/bitcoin-atmsThe open-source repo for the ATMs is here => https://github.com/alonshvartsman/bitrawr-geojsonIf you see that one of your local ATMs is not on the map, please add it to the repo! The format is GeoJSON but you can also send me an email ( alon@bitrawr.com) with the following information about your local ATM: Name: Description: Address: Hours: Phone number: Website: Longitude: Latitude: Let's help people find the best ways to get access to Bitcoin! PS. I know that Bitcoin ATMs charge very high fees. I'm aware of this. Unfortunately, for a large portion of the world, this is the quickest and most convenient way to buy or sell Bitcoin. Thanks for your time and help everyone! |

I'm building a brand new Bitcoin ATM map and maintaining the integrity of the information available with BTMs. Many pop up overnight and then disappear months later. It's a tough task to map all of them but I've started with all the currently known and operating. I'd love some feedback and help with maintaining this database if possible. https://www.bitrawr.com/bitcoin-atms |

About 6 months ago I decided to create an easy-to-use learning resource to help point people in the right direction to understand different topics on Bitcoin. This ranges from mining, wallets, BTMs, and different exchanges. The website is called www.bitrawr.comSome of the feedback I've gotten back is that many of the countries don't actually have the most popular or recommended exchanges' for buying and selling Bitcoin. I've tried my best to research some of the best Bitcoin starting points in countries like South Korea, India, Brazil, Mexico, Argentina (from reviews, bitcointalk threads, forums, etc) and would like to know if someone could help, mostly in listing the most popular, safe, and reputable exchanges for countries. There is a lot of differing information out there and I think it'd be beneficial for a lot of new people just getting started or interested in Bitcoin. |

I wrote this beginner's article on "what is", "how to buy", "how to store" Bitcoin after seeing multiple other articles offer misinformation and sometimes not up-to-date information. This is my first article on a site I created on my site that helps people traverse the space of Bitcoin relative to their country. The article is here. Remember, this is for the absolute newbies, the ones who need a very quick, and easy-to-consume breakdown. https://www.bitrawr.com/bitcoin-for-beginners |

Hello, my name is Alon and as the title suggests, I created a website to help new users traverse the bitcoin landscape. Trusted exchanges, secure wallets, nearest ATMs, most efficient mining equipment, and more. Took me a good 6 months but I'm hoping it pays off and helps some people. The site is www.bitrawr.comI welcome any and all heart-breaking criticism. |

Ethereum has over 2000 dApps while other competitor chains currently hover around 300.
It's easy to look at this sole statistic and disregard the rest, but we need to look a little deeper.
For both scalability and decentralization to occur, blockchains must be designed to store the minimum amount of information needed to verify future transaction validity.
Can any competitor come in easy and dethrone Ethereum due to its only advantage as a first mover?

Finding a solution for the prohibitive cost of RAM would open up the EOS blockchain for a rich set of complex, interactive dApps to materialize and scale. In July, following the mainnet launch, the price of EOS RAM shot up to over $4 million a gigabyte, while ordinary RAM purchased elsewhere a mere $11 per GB. Since all the information needs to be replicated across every node on the network, the cost of adding a gigabyte of RAM has to be multiplied by the number of nodes. Furthermore, precious RAM resources are limited in supply, with a current total of 93GB available for the entire network. All it takes is a handful of dApps needing gigabytes of RAM and the supply becomes completely drained while the price of RAM skyrockets, making it inaccessible to most dev teams. Soon, every single dApp developer will be able to scale their applications. https://medium.com/@liquideos/unpacking-ram-the-scarce-database-of-the-eos-blockchain-e6315fadd9ee |

Will a cross-chain DEX help bring EOS tokens to the same level of liquidity and users as ERC20 tokens have?
