Spark Graphene Event

Full Steemit Post here -> https://steemit.com/bitshares/@bitspark/in-case-you-missed-it-spark-graphene-meet-up

Spark held an introductory Graphene Meet Up in Hong Kong to educate those interested in what is Graphene, how it is used and why it is relevant in today's cryptocurrency space where decentrsliation, processing and speed has become top priorities for many projects.

For some who may have missed the Spark Graphene Meet Up, here is a round up of what happened.

*(See the complete meet up on Youtube)*

There are many projects already built on Graphene technology. The most popularised being BitShares (BTS), Steem (STEEM) and highly anticipated EOS. In fact Graphene is so powerful that we see many other projects like Peerplays, Yoypw and Muse using this technology too.

Projects are increasingly using Graphene supported blockchains as it is a developers tool box that enacts a Delegated Proof of Stake Consensus or DPOS for short to remove issues relating to centralised mining, cost and speed associated often associated with Proof of Work or Proof of Stake. It means that verification of transactions are dictated by a democratised network of stake holding witnesses rather than a network determined by who has the most computing power.

Above we see the ratio of centralised to decentralised cryptocurrency consensus used via many blockchains available today. It is interesting to note here the progression of blockchains from first generation like Bitcoin to Bitshares and EOS with the change in choice for consensus protocols.

Watch the full meet up video above to get all the details.
