Question on DNotes vault update: Do you consider two factor authentication via SMS? I guess that there are a lot of people who can not (are not able to) use QR codes.
Hi AlCamus, we hadn't considered using SMS authentication at this time. The current 2FA uses Google authenticator, which the user can either scan the QR code or enter the written code into the Google Authenticator app. We would certainly be interested to find out if there are users who are unable to use this form of 2FA. My guess is that the phone would not be a smart phone? Yes, or people who do not want or do not understand how to use a google app. I just think that there should be (or is needed) another option in two-factor authentication to secure the DNotes Vault account than Google Authenticator. DNotes Vault operates like a bank account and banks usually use personal identification numbers or SMS as two-factor authentication. Or is there perhaps once in a while a confirmation via email requested? I didn't checked this yet. |

Now this is a brilliant breakdown on the state of our industry, I wouldn't have changed a single word. I also really enjoyed the article. I'm trying to hash out another one that I think will also be very 'heavy hitting' right now, hopefully have it ready for release within 24 hours. 2:30am grind. |

Same here Alan's article re-inspired me. I have a few things on the go and am traveling today, but will also be working on an article for DCEBrief that I've mapped out. If you need another set of eyes to edit/proofread, feel free to email it to me. |

That is great, Tim. Thank you. I understand. We have been putting in insane hours. Yesterday, I got up at 5 am. and went on practically non-stop till I finally went to bed at 1 am this morning. Being passionate in doing things that you truly love is the inspiration and driver. It also helps if it has a purpose worthy of your commitment and contribution. I think we got it here and it is well worth our efforts. We love to see more people joining force with us.

Thank you, Brandon. We appreciate your significant contributions to DNotes' success, including an immensely valuable component - DNotesEDU. It greatly expands our mission to help others through education with objective, much needed, and unbiased information. Just imagine what else you could do when DNotes becomes a big success. That is why we want to only focus on a few things at a time to ensure that they become truly successful. Once accomplished, we can leverage our success to do more great things. That is how we can help change the world a little. As I have said many times, we do it "brick by brick or block by block" until we have a solid foundation. And, of course, they are all strategically linked.
That was a part of the discussion I had at Geneca a few days ago. When our full and totally integrated systems is in place, it will enable a lot of things on our wish list to happen seamlessly in a trusted environment. The end users do not need to know the complexities of our back-end infrastructure, the philosophies, algorithm, and support systems behind it. What matters is -"it is simple, convenient, secured, and I trust the the people who build and operate the system". That is one of the biggest problems we are attempting to solve. Yes, it will take us a few years and some massive investment.

I understand Alan, it's easy to get spread too thin when there are so many possibilities on the table. But unfortunately when that route is taken, as opposed to focusing on one task at a time, nothing usually gets completed to a satisfactory degree. This is speaking from my personal experience. I want to assure everyone that DNotesEDU is my top priority, bar none. |

Thanks shtako and AlCamus, we will look into it for future options. I understand there is a risk using SMS, but if there are no other options for the user it may be better than no 2FA. |

I am committed to finishing the remaining video series for the book project - 70 + videos. That project will be 100% completed by the end of January. That itself is quite an accomplishment. My thanks to all of you who have given me the encouragement, inspiration, and support to make it possible. I trust that it will go a long way to help entrepreneurs and startups to gain better success in business. It is all based on the philosophy of inclusiveness and succeeding together. That is what DNotes is about. Good luck and thanks. |

Cryptocurrencies are clearly still seen as a challenge by regulatory bodies to allow proper integration into the financial system, with some clear problems that need to be addressed. Tomorrow we are hoping to have an article released on www.dcebrief.com that will run through the game theory nash equilibrium for why governments and other traditional financial institutions should work with cryptocurrency integration, rather than against it. We are aiming for an approximate ~10pm Sunday CST release time, all things going to plan. |
