The tagline of the project is too scrambled. Can you make it a bit easier to understand? Or my brain could be too small.

Can you link to some information technology research where someone from the Disledger team had played a part?

Hi DisLedger has had research published by Cambridge University in their Blockchain Research Report, and by consulting company KPMG in their Consensus Research Report

Learn more on DisLedger's website




Haha, Cambridge brings be bad memories, of rejection. Good job on the research though!

Thanks, we found it helpful to inform educators and researchers about the architecture.

The only problem was KPMG's graphic erroneously makes it look like R3 and DisLedger both use Concurrence.

But DisLedger's approach is a much cleaner and more efficient design than R3's.





I hope you get those patents fast, there should already be eyes on your tech, that try to copy it.

Today Deutsche Bank invited DisLedger to join their 'Blockchain Business Solution Accelerator'.

Even more recognition by a global financial institution for DisLedger's technology!




Being a business accelerator, it means that they might actually fund you too, right? Also offer logistical support, maybe business cooperation...

Publishing code provides no guarantee that we are running the same code on our servers.

This is scary. I've never thought about that.
205  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Announcements (Altcoins) / Re: [ANN] Pink: Escort startup Series A share sale on: October 09, 2017, 08:53:05 PM
Are you the guy that I heard in a podcast about Pink App, like two days ago?

OP, is that you?

No, the issue is that we contacted a few YouTubers, hoping to start a varied discussion. But the ones that accepted are all from one point of view. We don't want to link and publish them before we have other, opposing, viewpoints or it will seem that we support just one side of it.

That's very professional. I wish more project leaders would do that.

Have you been in the business world for long?
206  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Announcements (Altcoins) / Re: [ANN] DisLedger non-blockchain, distributed ledger Sept. 1 token launch on: October 09, 2017, 06:55:36 AM

We have patents-pending on the technology and we take our intellectual property protection very seriously. Organizations find it better to just use our tokens than to worry about patent infringement.


In this case, it seems that it would have been more safe to wait for the patents to be actually approved. A lot of organizations will want to use this technology asap. Are you getting the patents worldwide, or just for US?
207  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Announcements (Altcoins) / Re: [ANN] Pink: Escort startup Series A share sale on: October 09, 2017, 06:42:41 AM
Interesting. So this would work 100% from a legal standpoint?

It works by Pink being an extrajurisdictional company. As long as our opsec is on-point, then we're "immune" from prosecution. In addition, we have contingency procedures so that if core team members are arrested (or even just have an accident), investors will be able to recover the system and find a new team to run it.


Will it be open source?

So does it recruit the blockchain's data decompression/compression processes in order to exchange and distribute data resiliently and quickly?

 Huh

Hopefully there's relatively little tying the token's value to that of Eth.

The issue I had with blockchain p2p file sharing was that people are gonna want to share dangerous things over this anonymous takedown-resilient structure, which will one day bring about a PR crisis for Eth. But I accept that this is an inevitable step in blockchain's progress. Shine on you crazy diamonds.

Ziber super project, I'm sure that the price of tokens will grow and will allow to earn all the participants of ISO. Team good luck and patience. Looking forward to the start! I used the product, I like everything very much.

A new comment on GAW from badbitcoin:
http://www.badbitcoin.org/gaw.htm
Quote
Our position regarding GAW and Paycoin. These unsupported "indisputable facts" versus the reality.

There has been a very vocal campaign against the previously highly regarded supplier, GAW Miners, and going even further targeting their CEO Josh Garza, and has also questioned our position on these matters. In response to this, I am issuing the following unambiguous statement.

We do not share the opinion that this operation,or Mr Garza are intending to defraud, or have defrauded any investor in Hashlets, Hashstakers, Paycoin XPY, or any other product or service supplied by GAW or it's companies. We are not associated with these companies beyond personal & private holdings of Hashstakers, Zen Hashlets and XPY Paycoin, and are not paid by these companies.
They are accused of reneging on contracts, there is no evidence of this. Reneging on promises. There were never price promises, beyond individual expectation of market value, and the anticipated $20 floor, a concept since reformed into the honours program, which whilst indefinitely delayed, pending the resolving of legal issues, is still very much active. Some proposed features have been shelved, delayed, or abandoned due to direct effects of the current hate campaign, and other features have since been proposed, some are better.
Leaked emails, widely circulated, have been obtained illegally and are legally confidential. They must be disregarded due to their origin being from a hacked external, and uncredited anonymous source. The hacking of privileged company resources also indicates that the hacker may easily have fabricated these emails using hijacked services, or had physical access to those resources.

Neither GAW, Zencloud or any other GAW operation, has at this time, directly or indirectly defrauded anybody regarding the conversion to hashstakers and XPY. This was always a choice, freely chosen by the individual.
The campaign against GAW is a phenomenon that is unprecedented, and has become almost a cult. The vehemence of these detractors - the majority of whom are non investors - has had a visible effect on trust and wider adoption of this XPY. This campaign was fuelled by a core few individuals, would be members of a kind of informal 'old guard' of Crypto. It is an indefensible action.
We cannot accept any of these third party, sometimes absurd allegations as hard evidence, neither can anybody else who does not have unrestricted access to confidential original company accounts, minutes of meetings and internal and external correspondence. Therefore, were we to conclude that there was a scam going on, it would be pure conjecture, and that is morally and professionally irresponsible, and would leave us fairly justly liable, to prosecution for libellous actions. The majority of the supposed evidence so far,  has no covenance and in some cases is even unknown of by the correspondents. Being unverifiable non original data, it is simply not worthy of consideration for any practical purpose.
GAW are also a registered company, with a strong track record. We have no desire to participate in any clearly orchestrated campaign against a hard working company.

Where we list other registered companies, it is always after confirming beyond doubt, that the company is using faked covenance, or is non-existent. We aren't here to investigate legal entities, already subject to outside audit.

I will finish by saying that personally, I am pretty adept at spotting a fraud. I do not believe that any deliberate attempt is being made to defraud anybody by Josh Garza. I do believe that the real damage being done to investors is due to this core group of 'haters' who resent this innovation and this rightly perceived threat to their own interests, and as such are prepared to originate and fuel this disinformation, not excluding illegally obtaining discreditable and confidential correspondence.

This is not intended as investment advice.

Ultimately, there will be a definitive outcome to this ongoing debacle. We'd like to come out of it with our integrity intact as well.

ViK. Editor & Project Lead. March 24th 2015

So bizarre.

Bottom of the page:



They only added that disclaimer after being called out on it:
https://twitter.com/Badbitcoinorg/status/553634277007839233

Correction -- that twitter thread isn't what made them add the disclaimer. That's from early January.

I didn't realize they were in the bag for GAW that far back. Here's where they complain about Coinfire costing them a lot of money:
http://www.reddit.com/r/Bitcoin/comments/2t1etf/dont_trust_badbitcoin_they_ask_coin_fire_to_stop/


What do they imagine would have happened without everything they're calling "fud"? Paycoin would still have been a hyperinflating peercoin clone. Paybase would have still have a buggy half-assed joke of a web site. There still wouldn't have been a hundred million bucks in the CAF. There still wouldn't have been the kind of partnership with Amazon that Josh was claiming even on the day of the paybase launch. Do they think that if nobody had pointed these things out, the market would have happily given XPY a quarter billion dollar market cap even though there was nothing in XPY or in paybase that would have justified even a market cap of a million?

The final shreds of badbitcoin's credibility have been sacrificed at the altar of Josh:
http://www.badbitcoin.org/



The oozing irony is that badbitcoin recently blacklisted xpystaker because it was promising $20 per XPY and didn't have the funds that would let them keep that promise.

Products and prices seem to be pulled from Amazon.

It's a very odd selection. Can anyone find a pattern to it?

Take the first item on the PC page: https://coinstand.com/#/search/c/PCHardware

Quote
Apple MB323LL/A iMac 20-inch 2.4GHz 2GB Intel Core 2 Duo, 1GB ram. $740
That model number is from early 2008: 
https://support.apple.com/kb/SP485?locale=en_US

It's a five year old computer. Maybe it's new in the box, but it's hardly the sort of thing you'd choose to emphasize.

The only place I can find Amazon selling that model (new) is
http://www.amazon.com/Apple-MB323LL-20-inch-2-4GHz-Aluminum/dp/B0019N889M
Only one third-party retailer is selling this through Apple, in new condition, and it's this one.
http://www.amazon.com/gp/offer-listing/B0019N889M/ref=dp_olp_new?ie=UTF8&condition=new

The price ($740) matches this retailer's listing, so this is probably where they got it. But if we click through to the retailer's listing ... it's not even a new computer even though they've listed it under "new." . It's "like new pristine condition." OS upgraded.

The point isn't that it's a used computer, but that the inventory is a bizarre collection of old computers, VHS tapes, what someone on HT aptly described as looking like a yard sale. There's got to be a pattern that would explain how their software selected this particular set of items.

Looks like Josh found his soul mate. They can commiserate about how the trolls ruined things.

Check out the reasons badbitcoin gives for blacklisting xpystaker ...
Quote
The promise of $20 per XPY is not one we believe you can support from you (sic) own funds ...
and elsewhere in the same thread:
Quote
Guaranteed returns should also be seen as a red flag on any "investment" site, ...

Ironic that this was written on the HT site, where guaranteed returns and promises of $20 per XPY without the funds to make it possible were the main things that suckered in the investors.

And everybody calls me a shill but not one person can answer my number 1 question:  Who is doing all this huge buying after all this MASSIVE bad news?  XPY should be dead, sub 1 penny and with dying volume.  Yet it is not.

It's down 97% from the peak. Volume is dying (last 24 hours, not even $20k total). Are you sure you're looking at the right chart?

To explain the volume we'd have to make some guesses. What percentage of the volume is traders and bots, for example? The volatility makes it very appealing to traders.

How much volume do you think there would be from the HT faithful who haven't come to grips with the situation, and so they dig themselves a deeper hole?

How much volume do you think there would there be from morons who see that it hasn't gone to zero, can't figure out a rational reason why anyone would buy it, and so they figure there must be some secret and they buy it themselves and post idiotic arguments in forums?

Etc.
