#Tezos announced the long-awaited launch of its mainnet, following the conclusion of a beta testing period. We wish them the best of luck! Top technology score, but lagging heavily in adoption. This may give it the attention it deserves. Up to devs now to start building stuff!
Brett Denaro @ripcurldog
If you build it they will come... Tezos is a third generation application (whereas Bitcoin was a 1st gen, and Ethereum was a 2nd gen). As far as blockchain tech is concerned, there is nothing better out there!

SEC Commissioner Hester Peirce and CFTC Chairman Christopher Giancarlo are both calling for "do no harm" approach in regulating crypto, which is very positive. Peirce says the SEC shouldn't hold back in approving Bitcoin and crypto related products to make them more accessible.

Taking partial profit during a trade is one of the best ways I have found to remove stress and ensure you decisions are the least emotional possible Securing profit reduces pressure when price rebounds aggressively against you and quiets the sound of 'what if' in your head
Cyrus Beheler
I think a good idea for a ICO would be for a stable coin like tether but used for a specific crypto like btc. Call it stable btc tether for name sake. It would be like tether but backed by btc somehow. Maybe a trading bot that used btc coming in to generate income. It’d be a hodling account for btc as well so btc holds more value
. Idk, seems like a good idea maybe I’m wrong.

Crypto collateralised stable coins are already the like Maker whose stable coin is dai
Jeffery Dee King
Sounds like you want a pyramid scheme coin.... BTC is unstable because people agree on its value by trading it, but with USD for example its stable because we perceive it to be, in reality if you graphed its buying power since its release it would show a steady consistent never ending downward trend.... USD loosing its buying power over time without a way to invest to maintain its buying power over time means poor stay poor while the rich can continue to accumulate more USD off the poor trying to get somewhere. BTC is a way for the people on the bottom to buy in virtually any amount and hold it over time for a gain. People are to impatient, alot of people will hate themselves for not buying while its low, one day they'll look back and this will be a bargain price.

For those who are into crypto for the technology, and not the profit-based emotional rollercoaster, I’ve got a great project to tell you about!
Before I go on though, no, this is not something you can speculate on, all you fundraising junkies. The tokens are being airdropped instead of going to ICO, and the airdrop snapshot already happened lol. This is purely to show how blockchain tech is evolving
A couple weeks ago, I sat down with Samuel Russell from WORBLI, and he gave me this example of how blockchain can change businesses and user experiences for the better.
Imagine opening an email from an online clothing store which showcases its latest featured products for sale. You see a shirt you like, and you want to buy it.
Today, you’d have to:
Click through to the store’s website, wait for it to load
Look for the shirt you wanted (hopefully the link takes you to the featured products section)
Click the shirt, wait for it to load
Click your size, wondering if your country’s shirt size differs from the merchant country’s shirt size
Click Buy, proceed to checkout, and wait for it to load
Find your credit card
Enter your contact details and delivery address
Enter your bank’s verification code so that the merchant can bill your card
At which point do you decide, “You know what? I changed my mind, I don’t want the shirt.”
The business loses a potential sale, and you don’t have a shirt to cover up your nips. And ain’t nobody tryna see dem titties. In this scenario, nobody wins.
This happens more often than you’d think.
According to a study completed June 2018, the average documented online shopping cart abandonment rate is 69%. Hehe, 69. Some of the biggest reasons behind not completing the purchase were because the merchant’s website wanted the buyer to create an account, or the checkout process was too long/complicated.
Source:
https://baymard.com/lists/cart-abandonment-rate
What if you could buy the shirt straight from the email?
Imagine if you just clicked “Buy” in the email and BOOM your shirt is on its way
By using preset preferences like your shirt size, payment details and delivery address within your email client, this is more than possible
To get to this level of seamless user interface and automation though, there are several considerations, such as compliance with regulations around storing personal data, payment details, uniform merchant sale protocols etc. This leads to trust.
Trust, especially when it comes to blockchain solutions, needs to be all-inclusive. That means international regulatory authorities, businesses small and large, and consumers.
Regulation needs to be in place for the protection of consumer data, and businesses must adopt blockchain solutions before we start seeing the technology explode with progress
But who’s going to drive change for the global regulators’ stance on blockchain? How can we attract businesses to blockchains that actually support them, and aren’t just a buzzword to increase their company’s share price?
Enter WORBLI.
Let’s face it: Blockchain isn’t the easiest thing to understand. But with WORBLI, you won’t have to. Their aim is to make it so easy for everyone involved, that people won’t even realise they’re using blockchain tech
WORBLI plans to bring consumers, developers and businesses together seamlessly, by providing a user-friendly, globally-compliant FinTech blockchain platform.
This blockchain platform will be the first all-encompassing financial services blockchain ecosystem, comprised of consumer databases, applications/programs, knowledge libraries, developer toolkits, coding templates, public/private ledger capability, and of course, compliance with all the bureaucratic bullshit that does its best to get in the way of innovation
Key features of the WORBLI ecosystem:
Verification of enterprise grade infrastructure (miners/block producers will need to go through an application process in order to support the network, but they will be rewarded for their contribution)
Compliance with financial and sensitive data storage regulations (a MUST-have for any multinational corporation, and this is no different when it comes to blockchain. This is so that nobody can sell someone’s personal information)
Full AML/KYC user account verification (just like when you white-list your wallet address while registering for an ICO). People can still use the WORBLI network without KYC/AML, but they won’t have access to all the cool shit. Whatever’s involved, the sign-up process will probably be easier than taking 20 verification selfies to apply for a certain crypto exchange
WORBLI expects the platform to eventually host a robust and thriving economy full of decentralised apps, providing various financial products and services to the online community
As a consumer, try to imagine your Google account, with Gmail, YouTube and Google Drive all under the same account. Now imagine you had EVERY app concerning how you interact with your personal finances connected to that account.
Sounds cool, right?
Here’s a whole list of advantages for consumers:
A universal account which stores all your details (your details are currently stored on dozens of different databases with a multitude of traditional companies, the only difference is, you have to remember your username and password for each one)
Functionality which allows users to buy, store and trade digital assets, in addition to accessing the traditional banking services they’re used to
User-friendly blockchain experience (anything is better than “here’s your private key, write it down or you’ll lose all your money forever”)
Full access to all dapps created in the WORBLI economy (examples include digital currency trading, cloud computing, data analysis tools, data storage, social networks, crowdfunding, insurance, accounting software, investment portfolios, superannuation etc)
Educational materials and customer support (24/7 help desk available to assist users with any issues that might arise)
Governance participation (all registered community members have the right to vote on WORBLI proposals and participate in shaping the future of the WORBLI ecosystem)
But how will WORBLI attract all of these potential dapps into its ecosystem?
Here’s another list of advantages, this time for developers:
Developers can build applications knowing the financial/transactional services are already embedded in the ecosystem (meaning users don’t have to jump onto an external exchange in order to buy the dapp’s native token, if native tokens are even necessary)
When new applications are launched, anyone in the WORBLI community can access and use them (similar to when an iPhone app is released on the App Store, anyone with an iPhone or iPad can download the app)
WORBLI will have the native digital infrastructure available via the fully-programmable blockchain ecosystem, so the developers don’t need to double-handle the groundwork of their dapps (basically taking away the supporting administration duties so that devs can focus on their dapps’ actual functions)
WORBLI will provide the computing power and data storage to host the dapp’s software securely (blockchain processing power and storage is more effective than traditional cloud/hardware solutions)
Confidence that every user in the community is a real person (with KYC/AML verification processes during registration) in addition to WORBLI’s compliance with legal requirements in terms of financial services and personal data storage
Integrated financial services with instant fiat/crypto conversions (meaning developers can be paid however they want, as soon as they make a sale)
Integrated digital currency exchange (dapp-specific/native tokens can be listed immediately without any of the complicated and expensive listing requirements of existing exchanges)
Customer base (developers can market their product/service to the WORBLI community as soon as their dapp is available)
Software language toolkits (developers can build their dapps in any programming language they choose)
Educational materials (an extensive library of written and video tutorials to aid developers and educate users on the platform)
WORBLI network support (WORBLI will provide direct support for any developers/businesses interested in joining the WORBLI ecosystem)
EOS Support (WORBLI has access to all tools built, or in-development, by the EOS team, including technical and financial support)
Yes, you read that right, WORBLI will be soft code-forking from EOS as a sister chain to leverage EOS’s existing software.
Why not do all this on the EOS platform?
Because WORBLI is dedicated towards becoming a globally-compliant FinTech blockchain platform, retaining all of EOS’s software advantages, while still being flexible towards the ever-changing digital finance regulatory environment.
EOS, on the other hand, wishes to retain control over its platform’s direction, however both project teams are in support of each other.
Some of the key features from EOS software:
Permissioned accounts (allowing for KYC/AML verification)
Private key account recovery
Private messaging
Network resources
Bandwidth and log storage (disk)
Computation and computational backlog (CPU)
State storage (RAM)
Block consensus model
Delegated Proof of Stake (DPOS)
No transaction fees
Offers a user experience similar to those currently provided by existing centralised services
How is WORBLI planning to achieve all this?
After global financial compliance is established (they’ll need this if you want to buy a shirt from an email with your saved payment details), the next step will be to create a digital workshop for developers so that they can build all the cool shit, and a user interface friendly enough for your grandma to manage her dwindling retirement assets with ease
So there you go, anyone who’s in this space for the technology

Full disclosure:
I’m getting paid for this post. I had the option of taking half fiat, half crypto. I went with majority crypto, to be paid in WORBLI tokens, simply because I believe this ecosystem will be the bridge between blockchain technology and mass adoption. In saying that, I probably should have bought up some EOS tokens prior to the snapshot for the airdrop. Just like we all should have bought Bitcoin back in 2009, right?

The last 8 months have made it materially more likely that crypto succeeds in the long run.
Speculative bubbles are part of a natural cycle of any new asset class. The value that’s retained after the crash is the point of interest for long term success.
All cryptos have lost significant value since the start of the year. The fact that in that time period, they’ve still maintained prices well above where they were at the beginning of 2017 AND the amount of developer talent this space has attracted has increased dramatically in that same timespan is a sign of one thing: Network Effects.
The question isn’t whether crypto will succeed- that’s a foregone conclusion.
The pertinent questions are 1) What are the second are third order implications of the first large scale monetary shift if 400 years? 2) what kind of timelines are we talking about?
Folks, buckle up. If you’re reading this, you’re still early.

For traders only
How are your strategies to find the authentic bottom? We know it's hard to find the bottom in a downtrend
market looks go sideways next months and supports and resistances will become much more important in this channel
Since it started to rise from that bottom of $5,750 and hitted $8,500, I have bought only at $7,800 but it started to lose force and hitted my stop which was already moved up at $7,950
I'm out of margin trading for a while since my last sell I'm liquid thetered waiting for the clear direciton and I'm fully adopter of breakout trading and In a bear market like this, for me, a good strategy to try to find the authentic bottom without losing a lot of money buying low and selling lower remains being buying only at the breakout of the downtrend line with a increased volume but also with a short stop and moving up the stop as it's still in a downtrend)
if is a true breakout we follow the wave moving up the stop, but if it's a false breakout we exit quickly for the best relation risk x reward for the efficient risk management, the most important thing over here) Financial math is not favorable for losses and we have to hold gainners postions and cut quickly losers positions. I think downtrend line is passing near at $7,000 at the moment, but my new entry point is marked only at this last top at $7,416, it turning back to there in this moment is clear the bullish direction
I was working with one similar strategy of breakout of the last tops moving up stop losses past year but I was losing some bitcoins in that strong uptrend until find the top, I remember in that big wave at the end of the year when it started from 5k and finished at 20k in just one month I had bought at the breakout of previous ath top at $7,100, stopped at $8,500, rebought again in the break at the peak at $11,500, and sold when it hitted my stop moved up at $14,500, and I had to buy back again at $16,500 until stopped at $18,700, so I got the top but I lost too much bitcoins to find this top buying back more and more expensive as it's hard to find the top in a uptrend, like today if we don't have serious strategies we lose a lot of money trying to find the bottom

To those who thought regulators killed $BTT and $HDG..... This is how the CEO works for COMPLIANCE! TLDR: HEDGE IS BACK AND BETTER THAN EVER
Luka Gubo:
Dear supporters,
after way too many discussions, calls with lawyers, email exchanges, and meetings we have good news for you regarding BTT token economics.
BTTs will still be used for payment of services at Blocktrade.com(membership fees, listing fees, etc.) but after the payment is made, BTTs will be burnt forever. This aligns BTT holders incentives perfectly with the success of Blocktrade.com – the more success Blocktrade.com has, and more BTTs are being used, the lower the supply of BTT.
Prices for Blocktrade.com services are set in EUR and paying them in BTTs gives traders the ability to get an additional 50% discount on the EUR price – if you choose to become Advanced member, the monthly membership fee is 129 EUR when paid with EUR or 64.50 EUR worth of BTTs when paid with BTTs.
Additionally, BTTs will be listed on Blocktrade.com in October.
PS: we will be inviting lifetime members to register and start trading on Blocktrade.com in the following days. After that all supporters that tested Beta version will be invited to open their live accounts, and soon after that we will launch Blocktrade.com to the public. Your support will be crucial for successful launch, so we will reward users who invite their friends to open trading accounts and start trading on Blocktrade.com.

News is seen as irrelevant if it doesn't follow the existing sentiment, because people largely use the news to reinforce their biases.
In a bear market, the sentiment is largely negative, so negative news matters more. Like the irrelevant ETF nonsense, it didn't really matter until the denials started.
In a bull market, the sentiment is largely positive so positive news matters more.
Sure, short price movements can happen because of news contrary to trend, but overall news is integrated in a manner that confirms your existing thoughts and that impacts perception.
Negative news in a bull market may bump the price down a bit, but it quickly recovers.
Positive news in a bear market may bump the price up a bit, but it quickly returns to trend.
Short of huge news that is capable of changing sentiment, news is used to confirm biases.
Be open to news that is counter to your own sentiment.
I think markets flip when a stream of sentiment is exhausted.
On the way up, it starts as green is nice and it ramps up (haha punny)
you're happy,
you're dreaming of lambos
you're getting a high everytime you look at your phone
you're ecstatic
you're an evangelist, just call ya bitcoin jesus
and then one day, it's done. Sure maybe it's before the market as a whole is exhausted but you wake up one day and you're numb.
It's exhausting both emotionally and financially, pulling money into the market based on excitement. The numbness sets in, and the trend changes.
On the way down,
red is to be expected sometimes
oh blood in the streets
it's okay
corrections are healthy
ouch
we needed a retrace
wtf
buy while you cry broseph
maybe this is a bear market
this is a bear market
bitcoin is dyinggggggg
do you hear me, dyingggggggggg
and then you wake up one day and fuck it, if it dies, it dies.
It's exhausting to be stressed and there's a certain amount of optimism in "fuck it". Once we all get to fuck it, we'll be fine.
Tiago Oakley
good reading. Moreover in a bull market there's high liquidity,so there's money left over everywhere to pump prices by any news,
Like happens on the global economy, with high liquidity/money left over investors looks for more risk, countries safe for investments like Usa and Europe lose atractiviness and countries more riskier /emerging countires gains capital flow that's why altcoins moon thousands %% and bitcoin (more safe) loses market cap
In a bear market there's no the same liquidity and there's no money left over anymore, so prices can't be sustented up there anymore, they always turn back to fall, and without liquidity to take more risk altcoins bleed hard and bitcoin earns market cap
Todd Blackburn
Its also comes down to search engine algorithm. During a bear market the negative stuff gets more shares and clicks driving it to the top of the list downing out the positive news.

Dash Dental DAO- Early pre-proposal discussion
by VELTTE
https://www.dash.org/forum/threads/dash-dental-dao-early-pre-proposal-discussion.40666/
I just wanted to post this here to promote some more discussion of this (early) pre-proposal and get some more feedback. If you have any questions or anything please let me know.
It's long, so here's a TL:DR summary for you:
Creation of a Dash Dental DAO which is fully owned by the network, including 2-3 masternodes to help lower overhead and pay for benefits for Dash holders. All physical assets and masternodes would be fully owned by the Dash Dental DAO and if decision is made to shut it down after trial period all physical assets would liquidated and returned to the Dash Core Group to be used for future funding.
Dentist working is benefitted by higher-than-industry-average percentage of their production- promoting growth of the practice.
Dash holders are benefitted in multiple ways:

Brendan Blumer: New Application of EOSIO Will Be Issued - CoinNess News
by CoinNess_Com
According to IMEOS, Brendan Blumer, CEO of Block.one, said in the EOS official telegram group:" We are excited that the EOSIO protocol has rapidly become the fastest, feeless, and the most used blockchain in the world, and are committed to continually improving the resilience and effectiveness of the EOSIO code base to facilitate mass adoptions of decentralized applications. In the Block.one village at Blockchain Live on September 26 we will be showcasing new cutting edge applications powered by EOSIO that include identity, music, gaming, finance, transportation, and email."
He also revealed that:" We will not be unveiling Block.ones’s next applications until after Blockchain live, but will schedule a designated product launch event for this introduction in due course."

Block.one's philosophy: Why go fishing for big behemoth partnerships when you can become your own behemoth?
by eosview
This philosophy is what was needed to bring blockchain forward. You don't need Google, Microsoft, Oracle, IBM, to adopt your blockchain because you can become the next Google, Microsoft, Oracle or IBM. EOS appeals to me because they bet on themselves to get it done and they don't wait for handouts from these large slow moving organizations. Block.one is nimble, powerful, and the best part about it is that they have the best product I've seen on the market. It's the same reason Tesla didn't ever accept a buyout from bigger car companies.
Because they know that they have what it takes to sit at the big table. Now Tesla is worth more than some of the "big three". It only took them a dozen years. At the rate of Block.one's growth, we could see the next Google, Apple, etc. Peter Thiel knows it. Why don't you?

Making money with delegation
by crypto_coiner
Can I make money by delegating to an EOS block producer ? I am just referring to Tezos (same dPoS)
Chaka42
Not to block produces. At some point down the road you will be able to lease tokens to dApp developers when they need extra resources.
wolfwolfz
So you cant earn reward through delegation in eos? if yes how?
Zyntho
Google eos resource exchange (REX). The dapp isnt finished yet i think, but i know B1 is working on it.

You WILL be able to. Just not currently, and not quite the same system as Tezos.

Vote Decay Means Less Airdropped Tokens
by Shakesmyst
I haven't touched my account since genesis. I'm waiting for a hardware wallet.
If I don't vote, my vote decays.
It seems I'm getting a proportionally less amount of airdrops too.
Is this a result of my vote decay?
Sorry, but this vote decay is bullshit. Give me a hardware wallet and I'll vote.
I even have DOGE on my Ledger ffs.

Please Help With Buying DAI Problem
y Libertarian777
I tried to buy DAI with Ether on Oasis DEX. I "wraped" my Ether from my account at Metamask, then I placed a buy order. Oasis Dex showed "success" and the amount my "wraped ETH" at Oasis decreased proportionately.
But nowhere could I find my Dai tokens. The "Buy W-ETH" tab on Oasis DEX shows 0 Dai available, the "Sell W-ETH" tab shows the remaining of my W-ETH available (I didn't spend all my W-ETH on DAI)
My W-ETH that was supposed to be spent on DAI went to my "market address" showed on Oasis DEX - what is that?
My Metamask account shows only the Ether that I didn't convert into W-ETH, and in tab "Tokens" the remaining W-ETH (the ones I didn't use to buy DAI on OasisDEX)

Trying to figure out liquidation price.
by Lambull
I can't find any tools or helpful threads on this. There needs to be a simple calculator or something. I know the equation for finding the liquidation price, but I'm not trying to do 100 math equations to figure out which situation best fits my needs.
afool41
Liquidation price = ( the amount of Dai withdrawn from the CDP ) / ( Peth/Eth ratio found on dai.makerdao.com ) * ( the amount of Peth locked in the CDP ) * 2/3

A statement from an institutional investor of Uchain on it's underperformance, and why I'll never invest in any project FBG is involved in again
by nemus95
For a long time I have been debating with myself If I should share which role FBG has played directly in several projects Origin X Capital has been involved with. However considering their actions do not only reflect bad on Origin X Capital and the projects we have been involved with their actions have also proven to be harmful to our investor base which I value above anything else. I am not out in this space to make enemies but I do feel it’s important to get the truth out there and name which actors are involved.
Unfortunately, despite heavy discussions with the Uchain team, they chose to place their faith in FBG and their associates for exchange listing and Market Making. For those that don’t know: It’s a public secret that FBG holds equity / are heavily invested in UEX:

LiquidEOS presents Bancor Protocol on EOS Blockchain
LiquidEOS
After a period of intense work and collaboration between LiquidEOS and Bancor, we are very excited to announce the launch of Bancor Protocol on the EOS blockchain! This will allow users to buy and sell EOS tokens directly on the blockchain; with no deposits, no central servers storing your tokens, and no need to match buyers and sellers. The Bancor Protocol facilitates smart contracts which provide instant liquidity to all EOS tokens on the network. Since Bancor does not hold user funds, users will still be subject to receiving all EOS airdrops.
Bancor Network is currently one of the most used dApps on the Ethereum blockchain hosting over 100+ ERC20 tokens, resulting in 7000+ trading pairs. The immense amount of pairings are attributed to the unique nature of Bancor Network’s ability to convert between any tokens within the network by depositing to and withdrawing from reserves, at rates that are calculated by smart contracts using the Bancor Protocol. Bringing liquidity to the Ethereum blockchain has proved a great success, and we are excited to replicate on EOS.

Transparency, Liquidity & Trust Coming to Cryptocurrency
Audrey Nesbitt
Cryptocurrency Exchanges
It seems that crypto exchanges have two major problems — transparency and liquidity. In a letter sent to 13 cryptocurrency exchanges, New York Attorney General, Eric Schneiderman addressed transparency when he requested that information be provided on a number of topics. While acknowledging that cryptocurrencies represent investment opportunities, technological advances and are inspiring for entrepreneurs, investors and innovators, Schneiderman also called cryptocurrency “highly speculative.” Further, noted Schneiderman, virtual currencies bring risk, instability and volatility in addition to innovation and opportunity.
New York Attorney General Pushes for Transparency in Crypto Exchanges
Each letter sent by Schneiderman contained a 34-point in-depth questionnaire regarding specific policies related to insurance, trading and banking relationships. Schneiderman’s push for transparency is a key component to the Virtual Market Integrity Initiative which is meant to protect investors while preserving the integrity of cryptocurrency markets. The regulatory frameworks for businesses involved in cryptocurrency is already fairly stringent in New York — these businesses are required to obtain a “BitLicense” from the NYDFS prior to operating in the state.
