Qtum Foundation Releases Whitepaper on Mobile Smart Contracts Platform

The Qtum Foundation, an open source value transfer protocol and decentralized application platform has released a whitepaper detailing the technical workings of the Qtum blockchain stack. Qtum is a smart contract platform for industry use cases, allowing mobile use of smart contracts and employing a Proof-of-Stake consensus protocol. The paper, titled ‘Smart-Contract Value-Transfer Protocols on a Distributed Mobile Application Platform’, was authored by the co-founders of the Qtum project, Patrick Dai, Neil Mahi, Jordan Earls and the project’s Scientific Advisor Dr. Alex Norta.

We can't start a scam accusation thread on Qtum because they say it's not a scam, ergo it's not a scam.

Unfortunately, I did not wait for some rewards about qtum. For example, signatures, Twitter, Facebook, etc. I will continue to focus on it. Expect it to be successful.

“Qtum will become the first UTXO model based smart contract platform. Different from Rootstock, Qtum is using the Incentive proof of stake as the consensus protocol,also Qtum support EVM. We also divide the blockchain contract to Smart Contract and Master Contract. Through real world data feeds, you can build the Master Contract on QtumChain. We also offer identity on Qtum Blockchain. Qtum add value both to Bitcoin ecosystem and Ethereum ecosystem.”

They have signed a strategic partnership with PwC China, and recently signed a service contract with the world’s largest freight company for the use of VeChain, another project by the team, to better manage supply chains by adding blockchain capabilities to minimize fraud and theft.

That's means somebody was in PwC's office on a Sunday morning at ~9:43 AM China/Singapore time to process a payment of ~$13,623 USD worth of bitcoins according to Brett. _VVV

It also means that somebody was in PwC's office at 2-3 AM (again, local time) to process the following bitcoin payments. _VVV

But the bigger question is who was at PwC's office on January 2, 2017, at ~1:28 AM (again, local time) to process the following 500 BTC valued at over $491K at the time of the transaction? AND to who, since Qtum is a non-profit and ICO investors have a right to know according to the law in Singapore where their charter is registered?

Press Update

BitcoinMagazine.com publishes details about PricewaterhouseCooper's involvement with the Qtum project.

https://bitcoinmagazine.com/articles/qtum-blockchain-gains-support-pwc-releases-whitepaper/

Let's play a game I call Juxtapose. Today's players are Team Qtum and Qtum's Brett Fincaryk, respectively:

September 9, 2016: https://www.cryptocoinsnews.com/ethereum-based-identity-project-uport-wins-the-blockchain-competition/

“Qtum will become the first UTXO model based smart contract platform. Different from Rootstock, Qtum is using the Incentive proof of stake as the consensus protocol,also Qtum support EVM.

So, according to Brett, Qtum received the million dollars from Angel Backers prior to September 22, 2016, when PwC was already onboard the project, with Qtum not registering their non-profit charter till November 28, 2016, in Singapore, because astute investors don't need to see no stinkin' charter prior to investing a million bucks after vetting venerable dudes like Patrick Dai. Brett has to be telling the truth because he handles all the PM for Qtum, making sure that he doesn't speaketh outta line.

According to Team Qtum, PwC was just brought onboard during the past 48 hours.

Isn't Juxtapose a fun game?

why is it matter? how old are you Gleb?
do you have any logic? or you are just a professional troll man?

Crowdsale Update:

thank you for the updates about crowdsale.. waiting for this now!

[provenceday]

https://yunbi.com/


https://www.qtum.org/en/blog/qtum-crowdsale-update-timeline

We are so excited to announce that Qtum crowdsale will start at 12PM GMT, March 16th 2017 and end at 12PM GMT, April 15th 2017 (30 days). Both BTC and ETH will be accepted. Other terms and details including pricing and discounts will be announced on March 9th.

In addition, due to the legal compliance consideration*, we have decided that Qtum crowdsale will be available on the following exchanges. Please note the list of exchanges is not final, we may modify it before Qtum Crowdsale start date.

Bizhongchou (bizhongchou.com)
Yunbi (yunbi.com)
ICOAGE (icoage.com)
Allcoin (allcoin.com)
ICO365 (ico365.com)
*In order to fully comply with Singapore’s anti-money laundering and counter-terrorism financing laws and regulations, the Qtum Foundation will practice ‘know your customer’ exercise in the Qtum crowdsale. Hence, we decide not to use Qtum official crowdsale website although it is ready to launch.


So https://yunbi.com/ is the best choice?

[mattaero]

Personally, being based in the United States, I would think that Allcoin would make the most sense.  Its parent company is company based out of Canada, though I am not clear if the English page is a translation from Chinese or not. *Edit: Allcoin does not accept US customers* (which is a bit concerning, because translations are inherently problematic).  I am a little disappointed with the developers in ONLY using the exchanges listed.  Being in the United States, I am hesitant to invest in Chinese exchanges due to the potential for tight capital controls by the Chinese government, and their ability to restrict withdrawal.  In addition, AML and know-your-customer regulations generally do not require third party exchanges, unless these exchanges are regulated as banks or similar financial entities, which I doubt.  The developers could very easily require certain identifying information and be able to provide the tokens themselves.  

I don't know if this will stop me completely, but it certainly is worrisome.

[mattaero]

Devs, Does the fact that Yunbi has restricted Bitcoin withdrawals effective Today, and with no end date, have an impact on whether you will still use that exchange?
