First, let me remind you what DEFI is


Decentralized Finance (DeFi) is a new movement that could revolutionize the way people work with capital and assets. Starting out as an area that focused exclusively on cryptocurrency loans, staking, and algorithmic stablecoins, DeFi is rapidly evolving into a full-fledged infrastructure for money management, including non-crypto capital (also known as tokenized Forex and stocks).


Tron and Waves team up to develop DeFi projects


The TRON Foundation and Waves have announced a partnership to connect their blockchain networks using the Gravity protocol and interoperate smart contracts written in Ride and Solidity.

Together, Waves and TRON are using Gravity to connect the smart contract languages of their respective blockchains: Ride and Solidity. Gravity is a blockchain and token-independent oracle with a cross-chain communication network. TRON and Waves are creating a bridge across Gravity that will enable both ecosystems to improve service accessibility for two user bases.

Although these platforms use blockchains with various types of consensus, native tokens ($TRX/$WAVES), wallets (TronLink/Keeper), and smart contract languages (Solidity / Ride), thanks to the development of the Gravity protocol. , this symbiotic collaboration becomes possible. Gravity, being an oracle and cross-chain communication network independent of blockchains and tokens, will initially support two smart contract languages: Ride and Solidity.


What will TRON and Waves achieve together?


1. TRON and Waves will establish a bridge across Gravity that will allow both ecosystems to thrive together.
2. TRON and Waves will collaborate on the following cooperation and integration schemes:



- $ TRX, $ BTT, $ JST and other TRC-20 tokens such as $ TRON-USDT will be available on the Waves blockchain through seamless decentralized gateways (Gravity swap) and automatically listed on DEX Waves (e.g. waves.exchange), which means that traders and developers from the Waves ecosystem will be able to trade, store and use TRC-20 tokens.
- Conversely, $ WAVES, $ USDN, $ NSBT, $ WEST and other Waves ecosystem tokens will be available on the Tron blockchain through Gravity and automatically listed on TRON's DEX and DeFi services (such as TronTrade or PoloniDex), which means that traders and developers from the Tron ecosystem will be able to trade, store, and use Waves-based tokens.
- DApp developers TRON and Waves will be able to use Gravity oracle data transfer services.
- $ TRON-USDT <-> $ USDN seamless swap services will be introduced. Such applications will allow users to manage various strategies for storing stablecoins, including $ USDT on the TRON blockchain as the fastest and cheapest way to transfer stablecoins and $ USDN as a stablecoin.
- Developers from both ecosystems will be able to create modern cross-chain decentralized applications that will run on both chains (expandable to other chains with Gravity) via user-preferred wallets and browser extensions.



Tron has taken serious steps to create the necessary infrastructure for DeFi to flourish, and nearly $ 4 billion has been issued on the TRON blockchain as proof of their commitment. The scope of collaboration between Waves and Tron is not limited to the above list of integrations, where research and prototyping is already underway. We believe that the Tron and Waves ecosystems can revolutionize the interchain DeFi industry by implementing and expanding this trend to other blockchain ecosystems.



Do you think Waves and Tron will be able to make a new main platform for creating new defi projects, become more popular than the Ethereum blockchain?

CBDAO ($BREE): The project had a presale for $SBREE tokens which would be swapped for $BREE. One of the admin wallets exploited a backdoor in the SBREE token contract, minted 50,000 SBREE, converted it to BREE and sold it on the market, pushing down the price of BREE at the expense of other holders. The 50,000 BREE was sold for under 200 ETH.

PAL Network Exit Scam

The simple rule is "buy at the bottom and sell at the top". But i don't think this applies to all coins, it only applies to solid coins like bitcoin, ethereum and the likes, because they have stood the test of time and would surely find their way back up. But most of these new coins, if you buy at the bottom, the price might still go lower and keep you trapped there. so it is better to wait and see a clear move up before you get on the train to avoid fake outs.

Are there scam tokens in UNISWAP?

Who saw before?

How do you describe them?

There is a big upcoming ICO called https://thegraph.com/ , It has a whitelist and cap for individual investing is between 1000$ to 5000$ , Some big websites like Uniswap, Synthetix, Aragon, etc are using the graph product in their websites, I want to know if anyone else is interested in it or you have found it scammy? if yes why so?

How about investing in Bitcoin cash? I came through an article and it's performance is amazing from couple of months, and I would suggest everyone to have a look on this as BCH is all set to become the new rockstar of the market and yes grayscale investors have released the profit results of this last quarter as well, guys even now there is a lot of time left to us for investment. think and plan accordingly.

The best technique for building a strong crypto portfolio is to mix things up.
Survival in this market landscape is reliant on adaptability.
you choose what to do depending on how we see the market.
Sometimes you buy and hold for the long term, other times, you take short time trades to get big profit.
I Also take some calculated risks on new projects BTC

I know many project managers that handles good projects such as Jamalezaz, bounty detective, and many others most of them are either hero members or legend, I believe they have enough experience to handle it mere considering their ranks, not to say the rank is the only criteria to be a good project manager.i always doubt those project starters with newbie ranks.is it that they decide to use a new forum page,or were the restarting after being hacked or disqualified or how come a new be is handling a project? This are few questions that comes to my mind about newbie managers.

bitcoin is techically more superior then ETH ,yes but the use cases are bigger for etheruem now!

real utility for ETH ARE BIGGER.

ETH: defi, icos, dapps, stable coins.
also the very good liquitity !!


BITCOIN ?

yes you can buy thigns with btc but so you can do with ETH.

Some bounty managers have been known to promote scam projects and I believe because they have users who rush to sign up, they keep being agents of scam project and not escrowing rewards.
More is that, the reasons bounty has been paying shit is because you rushing over it and they decide to list below, compare it with 2017 coins.

I believe some users are getting worried and fade up on lack of fulfilment of bounty promises at the end because the promises are not met as you either get scammed or the worth of your thousand units is = to a dollar ($1) at the end of many weeks.

When you work for months and dump total worth for $15 (rare case) if you get up to that, you have just paid for your data usage. What about your time? Inconveniences etc.

They take advantage of hunters that participated and not pay reward with different excuses which are :

1. KYC introduced while it was not started from beginning:
Know your customer is actually not necessary in a decentralized setting, all you need is to guide yourself or company because decentralized system should guarantee freedom. Why then introduce it at the end, to prevent participants from receiving their labour. I believe most times, this is to push out because if they are genuine, they should state it clearly from beginning that KYC is a necessary factor to receive reward. Example is bubbalex, his bounty has been one of the most sincere type I have read, from beginning to end is the way it is done. To
time for listing, times and dates for distribution.
All information about the growth of the project in different SM channels, medium, Twitter, telegram. No KYC introduced at the beginning and to the end.

2.The excuses of launch of website, app, main net, sales , soft cap are all reason you should understand you are wasting your time especially when you get shit pay.

What you can do if you like the project and you are not sure of  the promises

Save up to buy if you don't have money, you can wait for it when it is listed and dumped, you buy cheap.

when patience is being tested,
what are you doing in this market, is your routine still the same as usual or change other options?
selling at a low price is the same as selling a loss, and that is not a good solution. if you are a market player, you will know how to survive or take advantage of the market in any condition.

I am a newbie on this forum and I have read my posts that people complaining how they lost their fund as a result of investing on Volatile coin like BTC. Is it now advisable for newbie like me to invest on less Volatile coin like Tether or Gemini USD.

Will this be the beginning of a revival for cryptocurrencies because there are so many projects and project developments using blockchain technology
