The COINsistent Show - The Crypto Actuallity that /Actually/ Matters!

[Hello Diamonds]

Hi, All!

We're starting a channel for The COINsistent Show, a weekly special where we'll review the actuality of crypto's actually important currencies.

With a very clear set of criteria, and armed with tons of research, we'll cover the assets that we call COINsistents: Currencies that promise consistency both as everyday money and as vehicles of speculation.

We hope you all like our videos, and can help us with some feedback about them!

"COINsistents are currencies such as BNB, Paxos, Gemini and DIAM, that are backed by security, regulations, strong branding, physical or tangible assets, and aim to replace stablecoins as the newest crypto trend. DIAM, in particular, is making waves through its innovative crypto-to-diamond approach."

"On more COINsistent news, a big investors' favourite, BNB, recently broke its January 2018 All-Time-High by hitting $33,6, an unprecedented amount. Binance's own cryptocurrency seems to be moving impulsively in a much-awaited bull run, say technical analysts, which could continue the coin's exponential growth."

The primary reasons to hold a stablecoin are for the ease of moving dollar figures between exchanges, and for storing value. Therefore, the number of exchanges that support a given stablecoin is important.
Another important factor would be the issuer and its associates. Are they a reputable, regulated company? Are their operations transparent? Do they use auditing firms, if so – who? How stable are their banking relationships, and where is it located regulation wise? How transparent are they with its investors?

"While stablecoins can address many of the shortcomings in today’s cryptocurrency ecosystem, they have had their own share of problems. This is something that diamDEXX is striving to solve by backing their token with diamond assets and offering convertibility with real diamonds."

"A stablecoin is a digital currency with a value pegged to and backed by an asset with a relatively stable value, like US dollars. Blockchain projects such as Tether already offer a stablecoin based on US dollars. Now, a new company called diamDEXX is offering the opportunity to invest in stablecoins where the value is tied to one dollar, but the currency itself is backed by physical reserves of diamonds.

The diamonds held in reserve by diamDEXX are stored in five different tax-free zones. The diamonds are audited by IDEX, and subject to the Kimberley Protocol, which certifies the diamonds do not originate from a conflict zone."

"Sidechains are a specific mechanism that allows cryptocurrencies to interact with one another. They serve to add flexibility to systems, allowing for tracking and testing in-network, helping support their main chain. Through a sidechain, diamDEXX is allowing DIAM (an ERC-20 token) to freely interact with the EOS network, which supports bigger applications and doesn’t charge fees. An EOS sidechain also helps add security to the original chain, creating a perfect platform for micropayments and daily use."

"The launch of the newly confirmed stablecoin resulted in multiple personalities of the blockchain and finance industries publicly ripping Libra into pieces. To this, Facebook’s new Head of Blockchain, David Marcus, optimistically said: “To earn people’s trust, we are going to have to make a strong commitment on privacy.”"

"There's been a lot of talk about how cryptocurrencies and blockchain are at odds with policy objectives and nation-states, especially with the emergence of Libra and the reaction to it from policy-makers across the world. However, there are areas of collaboration where the spirit of bitcoin and the cryptocurrencies it spawned reduces the volatility generated by the conventional financial system."

"There are several criteria that are critical to assess when determining a stablecoin’s quality.
The first criteria and perhaps the most important one as well would be liquidity. Will you be able to actually get cash for the token, when the time comes? How quick can you convert cryptocurrencies to the stable coin? How accessible is it?
The primary reasons to hold a stablecoin are for the ease of moving dollar figures between exchanges, and for storing value. Therefore, the number of exchanges that support a given stablecoin is important."

The company aims to create a borderless, low-fee platform for payments worldwide and is moving fast towards this goal, with several papers reporting on its partnership with tech giant Microsoft."

"In May, Binance released a report about the state of the stablecoin market. It brings the extent of the current stablecoin boom into sharp relief. In 2019, stablecoins have already overtaken Bitcoin in trading volume. This is driving others to get in on the current trend. For example, Binance itself has announced its intentions to release a stablecoin. In even bigger news, all eyes have been on Facebook since it confirmed it would be launching its own stable version of a cryptocurrency."

"Facebook’s plan to operate its own digital currency poses risks to the international banking system that should trigger a speedy response from global policymakers, according to the organisation that represents the world’s central banks. Although the move of big tech firms such as Facebook, Amazon and Alibaba into financial services could speed up transactions and cut costs, especially in developing world countries, it could also undermine the stability of a banking system that has only just recovered from the crash of 2008."

According to a press release published on June 26, the gateway will enable traders to exchange fiat currency for the PAX Standard (PAX) stablecoin on the Paxos platform via wire transfer. The amount will then be reflected directly as a PAX-denominated balance in their Binance accounts."

"Throughout its short history, Bitcoin (BTC) has been seen as anything but centralized, sovereign, and censorable. The crypto asset was created by a pseudonymous individual, is secured by a global group of miners, and is backed by no government, traditional finance system, or common entity.
And as a result, many have looked to Bitcoin and its brethren — other digital assets — as a much-needed escape hatch from fiat and government overreach. Indeed, the cryptocurrency was released in the wake (and seemingly as a result) of the 2008 Great Depression, and many that have since flocked to the cryptocurrency are staunch anti-establishment proponents."

"The main concept of Facebook’s Libra launch is to remove the barriers associated with accessing the global monetary system - especially for those based in emerging and third-world economies. To achieve this, the Libra coin will act as stablecoin, which will be fully backed by a basket of major currencies and government securities (such as Treasury Notes).
However, although the Libra project is not expected to launch until 2020, Facebook has already caught the attention of U.S. regulators. Just a day after the project announcement, the Senate Banking Committee announced that it would be holding a crucial hearing on July 16th to determine the risks of the project."

"To start with the first relevant news of the week, it's no secret that Bitcoin and Ethereum are pumping hard, with Bitcoin dangerously nearing $13K, and Ethereum hitting a 10-month high. At this point in time every projection seems to be positive, with the Bitcoinist stating that Bitcoin could hit the 20K dollar mark only to go forwards to 100K from these levels. This can only mean that users should brace themselves, and HODL!"

"In recent years, the art world has increasingly warmed to blockchain technology, embracing the innovative crowdfunding capabilities afforded by STOs. In July 2018, DLT platform Maecenas partnered with London gallery Dadiani Fine Art to sell virtual tokens representing fractional ownership of a piece of art for the very first time. The token sale saw 31.5% of Andy Warhol’s 1980 work “14 Small Chairs” auctioned in exchange for BTC and ETH — valued at approximately $5.6 million."

"On more COINsistent news, Russia continues to make moves towards adopting digital currencies, which served as an excuse for the world's snarkiest country to comment on Facebook's Libra. The country's Financial Market Committee chairman said that Libra will likely not be accepted as a legal circulating currency in the country, and that whoever wants to use it, "should do so at their own peril" which didn't sound menacing at all. This is certainly bad news for Facebook, since Russia's rejection could mean that other countries would follow Russia's lead, and completely reject or outdrive ban users from purchasing or transfering libras using facebook's platform."

However, the examples above only cover a small number of the most high-profile applications for blockchain technology, with DLT currently driving widespread creative destruction across nearly all sectors of economic activity."

"Facebook has announced plans to launch a stablecoin later this month, which once again validates the important role that asset-backed tokens will play in the future of blockchain technology. While it is often noted that stablecoins can benefit those looking to store wealth from the threats of financial instability, very little has been discussed about the impact this will have on the African continent. This is somewhat surprising when you consider their long-standing history of fascist dictators that have all but destroyed many African economies."

"Describing itself as “A simple global currency and financial infrastructure that empowers billions of people,” Libra is attracting significant attention from crypto enthusiasts, mainstream financers, and curious onlookers alike.
While some are debating Libra’s role in the cryptocurrency ecosystem, others are intrigued by its intended use case.
Libra is targeting the 1.7 billion people around the world who are unbanked, meaning that they don’t have access to the financial institutions that have defined the modern banking movement.
In this way, Facebook is highlighting one of crypto’s most compelling use cases."

"Of course, Libra isn’t carving out its own niche in the crypto space. The stablecoin market already features several players that are creating unique takes on the stablecoin initaitve, all in an effort to bolster the usability of digital currencies around the world.
For example, diamDEXX, a stablecoin that supports truly valuable digital money, aligns its token price with U.S. dollars, and it backs those finances with diamonds. Offering both a stablecoin and a wallet service, diamDEXX acts as a store of value and a medium of exchange for unbanked mobile users around the world, Africa especially."

"It’s still to be revealed whether or not there will be any incentives or other alluring features for users. It’s also proving to be extremely controversial. This was to be expected in the crypto community, but even beyond, US government representatives are expressing caution. Given Facebook’s tendency to openly share information with anyone who wants to see it, it’s almost inevitable that the regulators will intervene. Perhaps Libra will become the world’s biggest cryptocurrency. Or maybe it will be dead in the water even before it even starts swimming"

"Citizens based in third-world countries that are looking to avoid the domestic threats of hyper-inflated currencies should consider the merits of Bitcoin. It’s characteristics as a finite, borderless store of value makes it an ideal safeguard. Alternatively, there are now a number of legitimate stablecoin projects that are fully backed by real-world stores of value. For example, diamDEXX is backed 100% by physical diamonds that are frequently audited by established third parties. The options for third-world citizens are effectively endless, with stablecoins even having the potential to be backed by real estate portfolios."

"Now the criticism is coming from a leader in the computer science world that’s fiercely protective of the structural independence created by Bitcoin in 2009 and Ethereum in 2015. A key aspect of distributed computing systems that make up a blockchain is the inability of any one party to censor transactions or control who can and can’t be a part of the network. No person or corporation owns the underlying systems, similar to how the internet is free for anyone to use. Facebook threatens these blockchain tenets with Libra, said Mihai Alisie, a co-founder of Ethereum."

"However, past this initial inflation, cryptocurrency offers an opportunity to stabilize the global economy because, much like gold, there is a finite amount of it to be mined. Furthermore, it’s the first investment that anyone in the world can purchase at any time, as long as they have access to the internet. For example, if you’re living in Argentina, you can’t just buy U.S. dollars whenever you want. You need a broker. And while the New York Stock Exchange closes, cryptocurrency never does. It’s a 24/7 investment."

"Coupled with blockchain technology, national cryptocurrencies could increase transparency around government spending and make it difficult for dark money to infiltrate political campaign financing, illegal drug trade, and criminal activity. A cryptocurrency-based monetary shift would also be aligned with the exponential growth of technology and the cultural impetus to digitize as many facets of day-to-day life as possible. It’s not hard to imagine a day in the near future when people move through the world without carrying wallets or even mobile phones – at least not in their current iteration. I’m optimistic that cryptocurrency would naturally fall into that space."

Anyone presenting a unit of specified foreign exchange will get a proportional unit of Libra. For example, one dollar might get one Libra, one euro 1.1 Libras, 66 Indian rupees one Libra, and so on, based on the price Libra advertises in various global currencies. In the archetypical monetary arrangement of the colonial period, in the hundred years prior to the second World War, colonial currencies were available at a set rate to anyone presenting the British pound sterling."

"diamDEXX recently announced the integration of Flexepin on its site, a money-to-voucher service that’s widely used in Africa to send and receive payments. Thanks to this integration, African users can use a ready alternative to purchase cryptocurrencies, which they can then use to trade with the whole world, an alternative that fiat, SMS, or even FinTech alternatives couldn’t provide. Having a coin consistently pegged to $1 can help users avoid unwanted price swings, and DIAM’s service aims to offers practically no fees or chargebacks."

"42% of the world’s poverty is concentrated in Sub-Saharan Africa.

It’s no wonder, then, that Africa hasn’t quite adapted to the current global economic model –one based on credit scores, banks, and fundamentally broken consumerism culture. In a region that also struggles with providing people with fundamental well-being necessities (such as access to basic utilities, health services, and education), banks can’t profit off citizens’ desire for items they don’t need. Capital, therefore, seems to escape Africa."

"Perhaps most importantly, Bitcoin and other like-minded cryptocurrencies are extremely volatile. While their well-document price fluctuations can significantly dampen buying processes, it’s even more devastating in places where users are relying on the currency’s store of value to provide for critical goods and services.
At the same time, things like varying transaction fees, somewhat slow settlement times, and a general blasé approach to facilitating commerce make Bitcoin unsuitable as currency, especially in developing countries or for those without access to traditional financial resources."

With Bitcoin, he said, "the adoption curve hasn’t hit billions of people." In five years, Libra will be "totally permissionless and totally decentralized," he said."

"In the blockchain industry, “scalability” can mean a lot of things. In one debate, you may hear about a technology’s lack of scalability in terms of blockchain’s size over time, conflating the ability to on-board new network participants cheaply with the technology’s ability to survive the test of time. In another discussion, you may hear comparisons to legacy technologies like traditional payment processors and the transaction volume they have on certain holidays as a worthy definition of what is required of a scalable technology.

You'll trust a digital record or asset that's installed on a Blockchain and distributed to a network of ledgers called "nodes."

"To underscore the point that scalability is a gating factor for mass market adoption, I offer a simple and generic definition of scalability: Scalability refers to a blockchain’s ability to provide a rich experience for users independent of how many users have this experience. Whether the user’s experience is joining a blockchain’s network, interacting with a decentralized application (DApp) during a prime-time rush, or breaking out from a centralized walled garden, the experience must be excellent to achieve mass market adoption. So, scalability is a key consideration if a technology seeks mainstream adoption, but is mass adoption itself important?"

"Facebook has said that Libra will keep a stable value because it will be backed by a reserve containing mainly cash deposits of US dollars, British pounds, euros, and Japanese yen. The approach takes cues from other so-called stablecoins, an emerging class of digital currencies. But the basic idea underlying stablecoins isn’t new, Bullard said. Nations have tried to “peg” their currency’s value to that of another currency, often the US dollar. In that case, the central bank promises to convert a fixed amount of its nation’s currency for a dollar. "

"Bitcoin and other similar currencies may be best suited as speculative assets, but they do not represent the full expression of the crypto ecosystem. Stablecoins, a specific type of cryptocurrency that, as the name indicates, prioritize stability by aligning their value with another asset like dollars, gold, or other resources, offer a more practical option for the unbanked.

Libra eschews each of these categories, choosing instead to base its value off of a basket of global currencies and low-volatility securities that will give the currency both a unique valuation and a reliable price.

Of course, Libra isn’t carving out its own niche in the crypto space. The stablecoin market already features several players that are creating unique takes on the stablecoin initaitve, all in an effort to bolster the usability of digital currencies around the world."

Speaking to Yahoo Finance a few weeks back, Thomas Lee, a co-founder of Fundstrat Global Advisors, noted that the launch of Facebook’s Libra, Donald Trump’s mention of the cryptocurrency space, overall institutional involvement, and further macroeconomic unrest could help Bitcoin in reaching the $20,000 to $40,000 range by the end of the year. He elaborates:

“Bitcoin is now trading at a level that it’s only seen 3% of its historical days. If you go back to every milestone that that was achieved, bitcoin subsequently rallied somewhere between 200% to 400% within the next four months, so I think if that’s playing out this time that means bitcoin could be $20,000 to $40,000 sometime in the fourth quarter.”

"One of the greatest benefits of blockchain is that it empowers communities to create its own solutions and incentivization systems, rather than looking toward a higher centralized power. If harnessed in the right way, blockchain can unlock ‘natural capital’ in communities, particularly in the context of the environment, where the problem of global commons is most prevalent. By creating transparency and reward-based systems, new technology can create widespread change, perhaps bypassing the challenge of converting climate skeptics."

"The African region is ripe for the adoption of blockchain in the area of digital payments. The M-Pesa mobile payment system has been operating in Kenya since 2007. It enables users to send payments to one another via a text message, using their cellphone SIM card as a store of credit. It quickly caught on to become the go-to means of making payments and was credited with lifting two percent of Kenya’s population out of poverty. M-Pesa has since rolled out to other developing countries.
This only underscores the critical role that blockchain will play in helping future generations exist outside of poverty. Like M-Pesa, cryptocurrencies provide a similar means of payment for the unbanked."

Over the last few months, Facebook has been softening the ban in the run up to the announcement of Libra—and it appears scammers are taking advantage. Libra scams may not help Facebook convince lawmakers and regulators that it can protect user privacy and prevent the digital currency from being used in criminal activity.

At its peak, Bitcoin and hundreds of other digital currencies achieved a market cap of nearly $800 billion. But despite a well-publicized price drop, these tokens continue to be popular investment vehicles in the digital age.

Of course, that doesn’t mean that they are fulfilling their purpose. Bitcoin was initially intended to serve as a borderless, decentralized currency that could facilitate commerce in the digital age. However, it’s erratic valuations, and broad speculative interest has made it more akin to digital gold than to usable currency."

"This entire year has been pretty bleak for the majority of altcoins which have barely managed to drag themselves out of the frozen quagmire of crypto winter. Since last Friday, total crypto market capitalization has grown by 7 percent but it is by no effort of any of the altcoins."

"Bitcoin, which recorded a new hash rate high, and increased by over 12 percent over the same seven day period, is responsible for all of those market gains. At the time of writing total market cap is at $304 billion, $20 billion higher than this time last week. According to Tradingview, BTC dominance is almost 71 percent and the altcoins are getting obliterated.
Ethereum has dumped over 5 percent today in a slide back below $215. Since its high of $238 earlier this week, ETH has been in free fall plunging 10 percent to current levels. With no fundamentals in sight and weak technical, Ethereum could be back below $200 by next week, especially if big brother decides to pull back again."

In a series of tweets, Trust Wallet founder Viktor Radchenko disclosed that support for Linux will be launched next week.

Radchenko also noted that most desktop crypto users — around 75% — are on Windows."

"Blockchain technology is among the most disruptive forces of the past decade. Its power to record, enable, and secure huge numbers and varieties of transactions raises an intriguing question: Can the same distributed ledger technology that powers bitcoin also enable better execution of strategic projects in a conservative sector like construction, involving large teams of contractors and subcontractors and an abundance of building codes, safety regulations, and standards?"

"2019 is the year when the blockchain ecosystem and the crypto industry as a whole had to get sober. After a wild 2017 and a bear 2018, the blockchain space is back on an upwards trajectory with new developments. There are no more Initial Coin Offerings (ICOs) to distract the crypto ecosystem and the building mentality is back on. This post-ICO and post-useless-PR-partnerships age urges the blockchain community to be less focused on the current price of bitcoin and more focused on producing meaningful services and advancements. Big projects from established enterprises like Facebook Libra are taking all the media space now and this is net positive for the enterprise blockchain space as well."

"Governments worldwide are changing the way they regulate crypto assets to comply with the global cryptocurrency standards set by the Financial Action Task Force (FATF). Some are amending existing laws, while others are creating a new system to cooperate and share data.
A number of countries worldwide are reportedly setting up a new cryptocurrency system to help them comply with the FATF standards. Fifteen nations are planning to create a global system “to collect and share personal data on individuals who conduct cryptocurrency transactions,” Nikkei reported on Aug. 9, noting that “the G7 members, Australia, and Singapore will develop the new system.” The G7 members are France, Japan, Canada, Italy, Germany, the U.K., and the U.S."

"A quick look at the crypto market top ten by market cap and how they’ve performed in correlation with Bitcoin could help shed some light in which of the bunch will return to their former glory and even go on to set new highs.
According to data shared by San Diego-based Blockforce Capital Chief Investment Officer David Martin, only two of the top ten crypto assets have outpaced Bitcoin in 2019 thus far: Litecoin and Binance’s native token, Binance Coin or BNB."

"Ever since Facebook unveiled its plan to launch a cryptocurrency, Libra, policymakers around the world have been up in arms. Beyond core concerns of trust, they are worried Libra could be used to launder money, finance terrorism or destabilize central bank fiat currencies.
They're right to be worried. Libra should not move forward until all concerns are fully addressed. But the debate surrounding Libra underscores a larger issue with the lack of clear regulation of cryptocurrencies at large."

"For those unfamiliar, asset-backed tokens are blockchain-based units of value that are pegged to real-world assets, such as company shares, real estate, diamonds, or commodities. They represent a large subcategory of security tokens and allow users to hold ownership rights over a physical and tangible asset in a digital form. Recently, the US Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) released a new document that defines digital assets and elaborates on how issuers and investors should treat them. The regulator’s framework is regarded as an analytical tool to determine which digital assets behave as securities and fall under SEC’s radar. When a fully operational legal framework is developed around security tokens, they might slowly but steadily replace many of the traditional trade operations by bringing more automation and transparency."
