Thanks realRioda. We need more technical stuff here. Hope to see more post like that in future.


I will pass here a rumour about coinbase. Telegram community is pretty excited about that and that's why i decided to copy/paste it here. Note that this is only a rumour. Judge it by yourself.


@jerkasscapital let me sum it up:

the project team is anonymous but there is this one known and related image from the main dev: https://ibb.co/nmZ4S4L same image was also posted as the profile pic of the initiator of the initial meetup group in berlin (where it all started): https://secure.meetupstatic.com/photos/member/9/e/2/b/highres_289840491.jpeg but the thing is, it's an AI generated image.

then there is Graham Jenson. seemingly unrelated to IDENA but, he wrote this article: https://maori.geek.nz/proof-of-human-2ee5b9a3fa28 and there he is basically talking about IDENA. he is describing the whole concept there. now Graham Jenson isn't just someone, he is the Infrastructure Tech Lead at Coinbase... https://blog.coinbase.com/@GrahamJenson

notice how similar the image of Graham and Andrew is. the image from Andrew is generated from the image of Graham. and notice also how it says "New Zealand" here https://ibb.co/nmZ4S4L and that Graham is connected to that too: https://twitter.com/GrahamJenson/status/998080157394132993

and another thing: the IDENA node is coded in Go: https://github.com/idena-network/idena-go and Graham definitely is working hard with Go too: https://github.com/grahamjenson and https://maori.geek.nz/golang-desktop-app-with-webview-lorca-wasm-and-bazel-3283813bf89

last hint: https://cdn.discordapp.com/attachments/693765642662182913/703714929307287563/unknown.png this is talking about a RPC interface that the IDENA node has. interestingly, this plays perfectly into Coinbase profiles: https://cdn.discordapp.com/attachments/693765642662182913/703715019132502054/unknown.png

question is, what is more likely: project is a side project from Coinbase employee or actually a secret Coinbase project...
