2  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Do you believe in stablecoins?? on: May 25, 2018, 07:49:06 PM
I'm really curious to see if everyone believes in stablecoins. To name some, there is Tether, Havven, Basis, and Makerdao. Which one is your favorite? Mine is personally Havven.

Sometimes it feels like I'm the only one rooting for stablecoins. I think they're truly the way to mass adoption.
3  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / The Crypto Lark interview with Havven CEO (stablecoins) on: May 25, 2018, 07:37:07 PM
Great interview and insight into the current stablecoin situation with one of my favorite youtubers, the crypto lark. He interviews the CEO of Havven and I thought this brought a really good perspective to the crypto realm in regards to stablecoins: https://youtu.be/oSuhs041Cs0

What are your favorite stablecoins??

7  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Real word use case of a stablecoin!! on: April 24, 2018, 04:54:10 PM
holy cow I remember following havven back in march when they had their ico and I thought it would take months for them to roll something out. after revisiting the project, they launched eUSD on the mainnet and now have a store where you can use eUSD to buy stuff. What do you guys htink about stablecoins?

I think they're the way to mass adoption.

8  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Speculation (Altcoins) / IOTA vs IoT??? on: March 21, 2018, 11:48:19 PM
Thoughts on how IoT Chain (ITC) rivals IOTA? Where do you guys stand?

I'm personally not a fan of IOTA and been following ITC for a couple of weeks. Crypto lark even covered them recently. https://youtu.be/BE8Gf-6sfJ4

10  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / How much is your data worth?? on: March 21, 2018, 11:42:43 PM
With the google, facebook, and twitter ad ban I see a big shift in the ad world and how we (as users) protect our user data. Good read about how valuable our user data is:

https://medium.com/algebraix-data/how-much-is-your-data-worth-c28488a5812e

What do you guys think?? Agree or disagree?
11  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Thoughts on Algebraix?? on: March 10, 2018, 10:06:40 PM
Heard about this project called Algebraix: https://algebraix.io/

Quoted from their site:

"Permission based advertising platform, fueled by the ALX token.
Empowering individuals with control of their personal data and putting revenue where it belongs: into the wallets of consumers."

What do you guys think about this one?

12  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Blockchain 3.0 = DAG?? on: February 19, 2018, 12:51:50 AM
I really think the future of blockchain tech will be DAG (directed acyclic graphs). In short, this is what DAG tech is:

"In mathematics and computer science, a directed acyclic graph, is a finite directed graph with no directed cycles. It consists of finitely many vertices and edges, with each edge directed from one vertex to another, such that there is no way to start at any vertex v and follow a consistently-directed sequence of edges that eventually loops back to v again. A DAG is a directed graph that has a topological ordering, a sequence of the vertices such that every edge is directed from earlier to later in the sequence."

Article: https://www.nextbigfuture.com/2018/02/blockchain-3-0-with-directed-acyclic-graphs-dag-for-ten-of-thousands-of-transactions-per-second.html

Advantages include quick transactions, no mining required, and can handle small payments. I've been getting into projects that include DAG networks such as IoT Chain because I truly believe the future of blockchain will be DAG.

Thoughts??
13  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Heard of IoT Chain? Featured on Hackernoon on: February 08, 2018, 11:04:48 PM
Just read this post by Hackernoon. Any ITC fans out there? How do you like them compared to IOTA?

Very good in-depth read about this new company. https://hackernoon.com/the-alternative-crypto-iot-chain-itc-b6c8621120ae
14  Bitcoin / Press / [2017-11-14] Why Experts Think the Blockchain Will Rock Uber and Airbnb on: November 15, 2017, 03:13:24 AM
We have big companies like Uber and Airbnb as big, centralized entities. What if blockchain were involved?

"There are already over 1174 listed cryptocurrencies on CoinMarketCap as of October 2017 and that number grows every week (1). And while the vast potential of blockchain technology is known in the ‘crypto’ world, many people do not necessarily appreciate the potential that this technology has to completely disrupt longstanding companies and institutions throughout the world. This becomes doubly true when talking about sharing economy services like Uber and Airbnb — the distributed ledger that is the blockchain is well-suited to take over the types of transactions that happen within these services.

I fully expect blockchain technology to create a better, less-costly, more transparent, decentralized versions of these sharing economy services in the coming years.

There are several new kids on the block(chain) already poised to do just this. One pertinent example is The Bee Token, which aims to innovate the short-term housing rental space and put more power in the hands of the renters and guests by utilizing the blockchain."

Here's the full article: https://www.huffingtonpost.com/entry/59e52b47e4b04e9111a3e442

Also, any thoughts on the bee token? They are disrupting Airbnb with blockchain and zero commissions.
15  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / What is your take on Cybermiles? on: October 26, 2017, 03:38:31 AM
Up and coming blockchain/token I read about today in Venturebeat: https://venturebeat.com/2017/10/24/cybermiles-raises-millions-in-pre-ico-private-stage-investment-opportunity/

From what I read, this is what they're about:
  • They partnered with 5miles the app to integrate it there where they have 12 million users
  • Optimized for ecommerce and marketplace applications by using smart contracts
  • Support tens of thousans of transactions per second
  • Planning on commercializing the blockchain to businesses
  • Community regulated ecosystem where there are sellers, buyers, and arbiters (people that are paid to solve disputes)

The chief scientist also put out a chart that compared them to ethereum: https://medium.com/cybermiles/cmt-vs-eth-c7eea2b03632

What does everyone think? I'm only 75% through the whitepaper and it looks very promising.
