Hyperbitcoinization

One of my favourite terms in the Bitcoin space is “Hyperbitcoinization”. It was dreamt up by Daniel Krawisz and explained in his 2014 article published by nakamotoinstitute.org. Krawisz described the new term as a gradual process by which bitcoin would become the dominant global currency. Basically, fiat currencies, which have historically lost their value are expected to gradually become less valuable in comparison with bitcoin. Consequently, individuals will gradually opt out of using state-controlled currencies and adopt bitcoin as their currency of choice. Should hyperbitcoinization occur, the end result would be a world with bitcoin as the global currency.

Crypto is dead! Or is it?

Decentralization is not strong enough of an incentive for people to switch from highly polished ultra usable apps to cumbersome flaky ones so it is up to all of us to try to make our apps compete on the user experience level

Let’s talk ICO’s

When we think about the purpose of ICO’s it really has nothing to do with the state of the market. ICO’s are a great way to enable investors, who don’t have to have 1M in their account, to invest in products they believe in.

From barter to Bitcoin, the crazy evolution of money!

To understand money, you have to come back many years ago. The latter dates back to the Neolithic period, between -14,000 and -12,000 BC, so that men could exchange value in barter. In prehistoric times, money could represent various things: herds of cattle that were traded, food, weapons, raw materials, cotton or tobacco… people have always sought to exchange value. But it was not easy to transport heavy metals or bulky materials. A few centuries later, men began to exchange shellfish that, according to some anthropological studies, were used as currency because they were smaller and more easily transportable.

Then, it was the turn of silver and copper, which had a market value as early as the 8th century BC and came from Asia Minor (gold was first used for ornamentation and was therefore only used in a second time). Indeed, they are easily divisible and their intrinsic value is significant.

Blockchain in 2019

We all are well familiar with the diversity of Blockchain; undoubtedly it’s a groundbreaking technology. During the past few years, Blockchain had an immense effect in the world of digital currency. That was what brought it to the mainstream. But there is more to Blockchain than that. So much more!

I agree that standing between love and hate Blockchain faced a lot of different opinions, but contrary to it, the use of Blockchain didn’t stop. The technique may be hazardous for the old transaction techniques, but the blockers failed to limit its capacity. Blockchain is going to play an important part in our future.

You might be curious about what’s next with the Blockchain, me too, as 2019 is right in front of us. Let me add up new trends or predictions about Blockchain.

August 1st, 2018 - Crypto Highlight; Stakenet and Cross Chain Proof of Stake (CCPoS)!

Cross Chain Proof of Stake (CCPOS)
"An atomic swap is essentially proof — a user is proving he has transferred funds from one account to another and thus its contract terms are satisfied. A verification mechanism on the other end is observing making sure the first user does act honestly and is true to his promise. If all is good the contract is allowed to execute, if not they are able to refute — cancelling the contract."
