.  #China’s decision to choose #Ethereum over #NEO (its "own" blockchain) is monumental.

ConsenSys with over 600 inhouse Ethereum developers entered an agreement with the Chinese government.  Joseph Lubin confirmed that his company will develop blockchain tools and software solutions to be used by the residents and businesses of the Xiongan New Area.

New update of #ChinaCryptoRanking No 4
China has updated its crypto ranking, adding two projects to the previous month’s list and now EOS and Ethereum are top ranked. 

#BitcoinCore (BTC) has improved, making the top 10 list for the first time. Crypto projects are ranked in three categories: technology, application, and innovation.

33 Crypto Projects Ranked:
China’s Center for Information Industry Development (CCID), under the country’s Ministry of Industry and Information Technology, officially released its fourth crypto project ranking on Friday. The new list consists of 33 crypto projects, two more than the previous list.

The CCID began ranking 28 crypto projects in May. The following month it added 2 more projects: EOS and Nebulas. Last month one more was added: Gxchain. This month two more public chains were added: NULS and Tezos.

EOS is sitting on a huge amount of ETH after their ICO, and it seams like they migh be using some of this ETH
to attack the Ethereum blockchain making it unusable by increasing the gas price
process called sybil attack : https://www.altcoinstalks.com/index.php?topic=34470

So basically, they send shitcoins worth few cents but they pay a lot of gas for these shitcoins,
some of the tokens that might have been involved in this attack:

By definition:

A Sybil attack occurs when one actor acts as multiple separate entities. Because many distributed systems have no form of identity management beyond accounts, and because accounts are trivially created, any actor can create an unbounded number of accounts.

Avoiding Sybil attacks is difficult. In centralized systems it can be done through heuristics that do not provide cryptographic assurance of Sybil resilience. For example, a centralized entity may try to avoid Sybil attacks by requiring that an individual IP cannot create more than a specific number of user accounts in a given time interval.

Sybil attacks are avoided in Bitcoin by requiring block generation ability to be proportional to computational power available through the proof-of-work mechanism. That way, an adversary is limited in how many blocks they can produce. This provides strong cryptographic guarantees of Sybil resilience.

For Ethereum and DAPP networks it is a bit harder, for instance, you want to implement a voting system, or in other situations where who someone is, or whether two different identifies refer to the same person matters, such as an auction (where allowing the seller to bid on their own items would give them an unfair advantage).

Based on token classification




As you can see, the simple fact that steem are using a native token while kin are not, classifies the tokens differently.

Cryptocurrency discussions / Main Crypto tokens types
« on: July 19, 2018, 12:47:25 PM »
Classification of tokens based on different perspectives:



Purpose. What is the token’s main purpose? What is it designed to do? This dimension illustrates why the people who call any token a cryptocurrency err. Tokens can certainly be intended as a cryptocurrency. But often they are meant to enable a specific network and catalyze its growth (network tokens) or merely present a way to invest in an entity or asset (investment token).

Utility. The term “utility token” has become commonplace¹ but there are various types. When looking at different tokens, you’ll find many approaches to creating utility for token owners. But on an abstract level, there are two major ways to provide utility: by giving access to network or service features (usage tokens) or by allowing token holders to actively contribute work to the system (work tokens). Some tokens do both (hybrid tokens) and some tokens don’t provide any utility at all².

Legal Status. The legal perspective is extremely relevant as of now, so it is reflected in the framework. The category’s content, however, is expected to change quite a bit in the upcoming months as it is a volatile environment and more regulation is expected to emerge. Moreover, every jurisdiction can differ. The general outline of the current state in multiple countries is that tokens which aren’t clearly a utility token — i.e. a means to access features of a network/service — or which aren’t a pure cryptocurrency can easily be classified as a security token by regulators. In some jurisdictions, such as Germany, there is some definition by regulators as to what constitutes a cryptocurrency. Several cases we found hover between two types, due to fact that current legal frameworks have been created before tokens existed and most haven’t been updated so far. (This isn’t legal advice.)

Underlying Value. Most tokens are created to have a monetary value. But the sources of their value differ considerably. Some basically work as IOUs to a real-world asset which they are tied to (asset-backed tokens). Others showcase stock-like properties as they are linked to the commercial success of the issuing entity. Those share-like tokens would be regarded as securities in most jurisdictions (actual enforcement by the regulator is a different subject). Finally, there are tokens which are tied to the value of a network, not a central entity (network value tokens). The latter might be the hardest to wrap one’s head around and the most interesting value source at the same time.

Technical Layer. Tokens can be implemented on different technical layers of blockchain-based systems: on the blockchain level as the chain’s native token (blockchain-native tokens), as part of a cryptoeconomic protocol that sits on top of the blockchain (non-native protocol tokens), or on the application level ((d)App tokens).


The different options each of the above classifications has:

EOS Forum / EOS overvalued , overhyped ?
« on: July 10, 2018, 07:25:33 PM »

Back in April/May, EOS had a lot of hype flowing into it with their Mainnet launch happening in the beginning of June.

We saw the price lead the charge in April from $3 to $20+ in only a few weeks.

This was actually one of my better trades in April, resulting is roughly 300% gains!

But now the EOS hype has died down quite a bit and it's almost back down to where it started...

The issue with EOS is that they promised us the world...

I've heard people say, "It's the Google of Blockchain"

And...

"There's nothing other coins can do that EOS can't"

EOS has potential to be great, but they branded themselves as the best before even launching!

This caused for a multi billion dollar evaluation on a project without a Mainnet to show for it.

So far, EOS has over promised & under delivered. Honestly I think they could have had a flawless Mainnet launch & still dropped because it was overvalued.

One big issue I see with EOS is that 21 Block Producers are earning thousands of EOS per day meanwhile no one else can stake their coins.

Just seems like a bad system...

So what do you guys think about EOS?

Do you see their Governance model as an issue moving forward?

Do you think it'll become the "Google of Blockchain"?

Financial services giant Mastercard was awarded several new blockchain patents this week, continuing its trend of embracing distributing ledger research even as it expresses open hostility to bitcoin and other cryptocurrencies. However, one particular patent is raising eyebrows.

The patent, awarded by the U.S. Patent and Trademark Office (USPTO) on Thursday, outlines a system that facilitates anonymous transactions over a blockchain network. Mastercard first applied for the patent in Dec. 2016.

According to Mastercard, the transparent nature of ordinary blockchain transactions is a hindrance to this technology’s adoption for everyday payments. That’s true for both businesses and consumers.

An individual, for instance, may want to purchase a gift for a significant other without the recipient being tipped off to the details of the transaction. Moreover, most businesses would not be too keen on providing competitors and other third-parties with real-time data such as transaction volume.

From the patent:

    “Thus, there is a need for a technical solution whereby an entity may participate in a transaction where transaction details may be posted publicly to ensure accountability and trust in the data, while still providing anonymity and inability of others to track individual transactions or volume information by transaction party identifying information of both parties of a transaction to satisfy the confidentiality needs of each entity involved in the transaction.”

Hey guys, I have two questions:

1. If your current fiat bank account is emptied by a fraudster, what happens? How do you get your money  back?

2.If your currency crypto wallet is emptied by a fraudster, what happens? How do you get your money  back?
