Highlights and interesting items from the past week on the Lisk subreddit and beyond.....


Hello everybody. The Lisk project and it's enthusiasts are always busy, and this week past has certainly been no exception.
Seeing is believing, so here is a recap of the highlights and interesting items from the past week on the Lisk subreddit and beyond.....


Lisk sidechain project covered by wallstreet-online!  
Wallstreet-online.de which classes itself "Germany's leading financial community" wrote an in-depth article on future Lisk sidechain, MADANA.  Some of the topics covered in the extensive piece include, the enormous potential for the future of Data analysis under the protection of privacy, how MADANA has already filed a patent, and why MADANA is a pioneer for Blockchain startups under German law,  You can read the translated article here...... https://www.reddit.com/r/Lisk/comments/96718z/wallstreetonline_on_madana_a_major_sidechain/


Lisk videos around the world; Crypto Zombie!  
United States crypto Youtuber "Crypto Zombie" released a new video titled "Are ICOs Dumping $ETH & Crashing The Markets? Hoskinson vs Vitalik | Facebook Rumors" and within it he features LISK. Speaking about the ICO of MADANA in a section of this particular video he explains LISK as a district within a country, sidechains as the streets within the district, and MADANA as a shop in one of these streets. I have taken the liberty of pinpointing the section of the video where he begins the LISK coverage here.......... https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=3FJmoe8cBuE&t=610s


Lisk Commander will interact with the network, mainchain/sidechain and dapps!  
Shusetsu Toda ( https://lisk.io/team/shusetsu-toda ), Fullstack Developer at Lightcurve which is working on the Lisk project, has released a new blog post on the release of Lisk Commander 1.0.0. here....... https://blog.lisk.io/lisk-commander-1-0-0-release-37e72b9c5dad . The following passage from Shusetsu's blog is really exciting...... "from Lisk Commander 2.0 onwards, we will integrate more features for developers and blockchain creators as a first entry point into the Lisk ecosystem. Together with Lisk Elements and the SDK, Lisk Commander will evolve to become a tool that can be used to create, maintain and interact with the network as well as the mainchain/sidechain and dapps. Developers and node maintainers will be able to create the template of the sidechain, start and manage the node as well as much more".


Lisk Core 1.0 has  smooth ride on the public Testnet so far!  
As you probably all know the important step of migration from Lisk Core 1.0.0-rc.1 to 1.0.0-rc.2 on Testnet network has occurred. The migration went smoothly and successfully.  I tracked what some of the community members involved in the testnet have been saying, and while a lot of it is very technical and far beyond my understanding, I can report that that there have been no major hiccups so far. What follows are a selection of comments from two posters regarding this...... u/TheRealPhoenix1969 said, "haha exactly, I haven't even seen one node of mine hiccup yet; looks so solid.* He continued by urging on with, "testnet solid A* lets get that blockheight 🍒 ." Then jokingly he said, "I'm currently chanting in the mirror by candle-light". u/Lemiiii put a lot of minds at ease when he said, "I can confirm. Very smooth ride so far ✌️ ". It looks like HQ have a solid product on their hands.


Lisk Commander 1.0.0. launch covered in two new press pieces!
CryptoNinjas covered Lisk Commander 1.0.0. in the straightforwardly titled article, "Lisk releases version 1.0.0 of command line interface tool". That can be read here....... https://www.cryptoninjas.net/2018/08/13/lisk-releases-version-1-0-0-of-command-line-interface-tool/ . A regular documenter of Lisk's progress, ambcrypto.com, was the other publication giving coverage to the Lisk Commander 1.0.0. launch, again with the direct title of "Lisk [LSK] announces its command line interface tool release, Lisk Commander 1.0.0". Three redditors got shout outs in this piece while being quoted, namely u/Mmcryto2018 , u/Delegate_endro , and u/AtomTanNZ. You can check out that article here...... https://ambcrypto.com/lisk-lsk-announces-its-command-line-interface-tool-release-lisk-command-1-0-0/ .


Lisk videos around the world; NICKALEXG!  
United states crypto Youtuber "NICKALEXG" released a new video titled "Lisk Price Prediction & Analysis".  The channel with 1,800 subs is run by NICKALEXG who describes himself as a "Serial Entrepreneur! Bitcoin Investor and Day Trader!".  Speaking about the Lisk project he says he is impressed with the Lisk Academy and the events and meetups around the community. He also reckons Lisk is not a get rich quick token. You can watch the entire video and his analysis here........ https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=DCNLBU2McLQ .  Don't forget to give the Youtube channel of the original poster a thumbs up.


Lisk Core 1.0.0 Mainnet release block height is announced!
The migration of Lisk Core 1.0 to Mainnet will happen when we reach block height 6,901,027".  Now HQ expects this block height to arrive on Wednesday, August 29, no sooner than 11:00 AM CEST. Following this date, Lisk Mainnet nodes must be upgraded to Lisk Core 1.0, leaving behind the old version, Lisk Core 0.9.16.  It seems to be all coming together folks, and I think Max Kordek said this best on twitter when he posted "Lisk Core 1.0.0 ✅,  Lisk Commander 1.0.0 ✅,  Lisk Elements 1.0.0 ✅,  Lisk Explorer 2.1.4 ✅,  Lisk Nano 2.0.0 ✅,  Lisk Hub 1.0.0 ✅ ; all Lisk products are ready for our biggest milestone yet!".  You can see Max's tweet here..... https://twitter.com/MaxKordek/status/1029753927141675008?s=19


Lisk voices amongst the praise for SVK Crypto!
What's that I hear?  Yes, it's the dulcet tones of Mat (Community Manager) and Jacob (Marketing Manager) from Lisk adding their congratulations to SVK Crypto on the posting of their 200th Show Video.  SVK Crypto is a community-driven investment firm based in London focused on Blockchain Technologies and Digital Assets globally.  You can check out the 200th Show Video here...... https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=7ZNX569-tew&feature=youtu.be to see if you can pick out the lads voices.


Lisk USA have released another informative report!
This weeks installment contains coverage of Lisk’s head of marketing, Thomas Schouten's turn on the Tech Blog Writer Podcast, Wallstreet-online publishing an article on MADANA and Lisk HQ releasing the Lisk Commander version 1.0.0. .  You can read about all these stories and much more in this week’s The State of Lisk Report – Ep. 14, which you can find here........... liskusa.io/the-state-of-lisk-report-ep-14.  Keep 'em coming Lisk USA.


Lisk Dev Team at Lightcurve rack up one thousand pull requests!
The Lisk Dev Team have hit another milestone;  merging more than 1,000 pull requests in the Lisk Core repository on Github. The news of the 1,000 pull request milestone being passed was delivered in a tweet from HQ which said *"Together with the imminent Mainnet release, #Lightcurve Dev Team recently reached another great milestone — merging more than 1,000 pull requests in the #Lisk Core repository! We’re very excited about this and look forward to many, many more"*. You can view the tweet here......... https://twitter.com/LiskHQ/status/1030098042786078721 .


Lisk sidechain project to tour Singapore, Bangkok, and Saigon!  
As we all know, MADANA is due to be one of the first major dApps to be built on a Lisk sidechain. In a series of upcoming events interested folk in South East Asia will get to talk personally to CEO Christian Junger and Members of the MADANA team about privacy-preserving tech and blockchain use-cases, all whilst enjoying some cold drinks. Visit the South East Asia blog post here......  https://blog.madana.io/madana-comes-to-asia-the-power-of-blockchain-used-for-privacy-preserving-data-analysis-a4b90cb8b00d on the MADANA blog for full details of the trip and how to book tickets for the meetups.  


Whew, that's a lot of action involving the Lisk project!

Good evening, I would like to know what is the minimum currency "LISK" to start receiving the rewards of the POS system, and what is the percentage (%) of annual average profit?

I think it is 0.009% or almost 1%. May be lower or higher, better minds then me would know.

at least that is what I'm going with for calcs.

Good morning, and with that percentage of income does it pay to invest? after all the profits would take a lot ... because this rate you are referring to would be for 1 month of operation of the POS system?

[glorry]

Why be so cheap
Or by half or just spent a bit more if you know it will go to min 20$
1$ will not happen for 29. Low 3$ range at top

[gabigazi]

luckly lisk is tradable on multiple exchanges, so best to have the bulk of your lisk in your own wallet and earn interest voting with it and then just move a small into exchagne to trade and if Binance Ops Team are idiots, you can leave that little funds there and move a little more from your own wallet to Bittrex, or whatever.

to the best of my knowledge (anyone want to jump in here?). That is MONTLY.... and it is based on the amount of coin you have.

As to nodes or forging...you need a lot more LISK than I'll ever see, I think.

see the site on how to get the pos benefits on the lisk hub etc

I find voting really tricky, especially if there are new delegates. Its hard to know who is the best, for rewards and the lisk ecosystem. Is there a good way to determine who is the best to vote for.

I find voting really tricky, especially if there are new delegates. Its hard to know who is the best, for rewards and the lisk ecosystem. Is there a good way to determine who is the best to vote for.

As an aid you can follow the official Lisk voting tutorial here, dumbaxoi ....... https://help.lisk.io/voting-and-delegates/how-do-i-vote-for-a-delegate

Also before you vote, this selection of vote optimizers may help you get best return in payouts from your votes........

http://earnlisk.com/

Be aware though it is not all about Lisk token gain though, as there are a lot of delegates not currently forging who do a great lot of good for the community/project and they deserve a vote also.

You can familiarise yourself with what they do by keeping your eye on the Lisk reddit.........  https://www.reddit.com/r/Lisk/

To get the maximum payout that is possible, you just have to do this:

• Start Lisk Hub and login to your account
• Visit https://lisk.builders/votemanager and enter your address.
• Skip the tutorial
• Make sure you are voting for all Top 101 delegates
  
• If you have to change your votes the website will now show green buttons (Step 1, Step 2, ...) - if no green button shows up you are already voting all needed 101 delegates.

• Now click on the green "Step 1"-button
• Lisk Hub will automatically set the votes and you just have to confirm
• Repeat it with all Step-Buttons that showed up on the website.

That's all. Most payouts are done on a weekly basis.

📌   Lisk sidechain project launches telegram for those interested in A.I. and blockchain! 
A message pinned to the top of the newly launched Telegram channel from GNY.io is acting like a beacon to those interested in artificial intelligence, machine learning, and how these will be enhanced by the blockchain.   The message reads "Welcoming in any new members coming from our invites today of those of you interested in the artificial intelligence space.   Hopefully we can provide everything you need about GNY and our home site www.gny.io.   We have a busy end of the month upcoming with articles on cointelegraph and new videos out for broadcast.   We are launching our token sale as of 03/09/2018.  Plenty of supporting information to come so stay active and happy to help answer any questions".   The GNY Telegram channel can be found here.... https://t.me/GNYioBlockchain   

Last month GNY.io and the delegate team GNYDEVS were pleased to announce the full GNY Lisk sidechain, and that they are accepting Lisk tokens during their ICO. The GNY Lisk sidechain will bring the app deployment capability of Lisk, whilst adding Machine Learning functionality with ease.   The GNY Lisk sidechain tokens will be distributed through an airdrop exclusive to Lisk wallet holders who participate in the token sale.   You can keep up to date on how this develops by visiting the GNY website here..... https://www.gny.io/ .   Don't forget to see the announcement reaction here..... https://www.reddit.com/r/Lisk/comments/93njcr/gny_bringing_good_news_for_the_lisk_token_the/ including input from Lisk President & CEO, Max Kordek ,  including input from Lisk President & CEO, Max Kordek.

well, 6,262 some LISK from the $476 august 2016 I think it was 1 BTC investement..that was the cost when I looked it up

got 2k of LISK at the 8.49 price though...that MAY have been a mistake

*groan*

however, all together LISK must dump below $1.92 usd for me to lose money...so knock wood

A buy wall of 60 BTC Order at 0.00044700 on bittrex appeared. The action will soon start and we will see what will happen in the next hours......popcorn time

Because millions in USDT was send on Bittrex today

A 60 bitcoin buy wall?! Looks some whales are planning to accumulate but are currently speculating that LISk may fall further. On the other hand it could be LISK HQ doing trade tactics to prevent the price from falling any lower, either way it is needed!

Given that Lisk's market cap is close to half a billion dollars, a 60 BTC buy wall isn't as impressive as some people would think. There are probably a lot of whales that could fill that order with just one action.

[boopy265420]

Every investment is based on assumptions and market can take any direction once you have loaded up your wallet with LSK or any other coin. That time actually was looking like altcoins are best for hedge and will not see this much decline in their values. These markets worked as save haven for sometime but extended bear market broke every support level. It is reaching is very good range again to be picked up.

They have 51 members and they have built best and  dedicated team of blockchain proffesionals that help them in developing and promoting lisk,  Lisk is mainstream project.I can see big future of lisk.

[ukloon]

A huge team should really mean that LISK is guaranteed to be a success story, the numbers don't show this to be the case so we will have to see what happens when these sidechain projects start to develop. Assuming these ICOs will take LISK as a method of investing the demand for LISK should increase along with the price

[SCAMcoinTalk]

So, the guys fucked up with their previous coin scam called "Crypti",

made a brand new "fork" by beautifying code:

https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=654463.msg14998414#msg14998414

premined 100,000,000 LSK:

"managed to gather 10 000 BTC WITH THIS":

https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=654463.msg14998414#msg14998414

And there's only thing I do not understand: what does this have to do with JavaScript Developers? Are they the main target for the scammers?

[Commivan]

Hey. Can someone help me with my question? Does Lisk work with Microsoft?

[shixd8899]

The LSK coin project is technically brilliant and is expected to perform well in the next bull market with encrypted currencies.
