Re: How does blockchain affect the PUBLIC SECTOR?

I'm actually seeing a lot of signs showing that the entire crypto and blockchain space is growing up. There are increasingly more sophisticated projects that are entering this space, large corporations are researching blockchain and governments are talking about it more openly, like illustrated with conferences such as this one. It's about time for government officials to sit down with blockchain experts to discuss how to work with this technology, rather than throwing it on the side and banning it. Nice to see that conferences like this Blockwalks are taking place and are connecting people from the industry with decision makers
Yeah, it's awesome to see that. Tired of all these companies claiming to save the world by just using blockchain  Grin

Just watched some videos from Blockwalks 2018. Serious knowledge bombs in some of them. Really enjoyed Max Kaye's speech. If anyone's considering going I suggest you watch some videos from their last year's event

Oh, that seems interesting. I haven't seen many blockchain events talking about blockchain tech in the public sector. These kinds of events will probably become more and more popular as more countries are starting to implement blockchain to their systems. How was the last year's event regarding the topics? I saw that Nick Szabo and Max Kaye were there, so there were probably many interesting topics

BitWings ICO Reveals the First Ultra-Secure Mining Smartphone
by
LOLpenguin
on 22/04/2019, 10:02:54 UTC
Wings Mobile, the Spanish virtual mobile operator, has revealed the development of the world’s first ultra-secure, crypto-mining smartphone - “The Simply Sexy” Wings WX™ - which will have its official unveiling at the Mobile World Congress in Barcelona from the 25 to 28 February 2019. This ultra-secure smartphone can generate up to 2 ETH a month without any power consumption.

Wings received the ALCI AWARD for ‘Best Technological Design’ for their state-of-the-art smartphones, supporting their reputation as an innovative software developer and high-end smartphone and laptop producer.

During the Wings ICO, which starts in May 2019, a limited edition of 40,000 Wings WX™ units with engraved production numbers will be made available for 6000 BWN (BitWings tokens).  BWN can always be used in Wings’ native ecosystem, granting a 10% discount off the price within the entire range of products and services, both online and in physical stores.

Wings Mobile, founded in 2007, has seen over a decade of success within the wholesale B2B telecommunications market. They are now expanding into the B2C marketplace, with their current retail business strategy based on offering their mobile network and services, Wings smartphones and Wings Books laptops, to the end consumer through their distribution system based on an ingenious social media marketing strategy and exclusive affiliate program.

According to the President of Wings, Daniele Bianchini, “There are already numerous original software applications incorporated into our hardware. With ©Wings Suite™ you can transfer all your Wings phone functions to your laptop, including GSM calls, and when using ©Wings Guardian™ you will know in real time if any applications or hackers are using your camera. Furthermore, with ©Wings Secure Call™ you can have VoIP calls that not even Wings Mobile can intercept. And finally, with ©Wings World Roaming Free™ you can have free VoIP calls in 60 countries around the world.”

Bianchini continued, “We know that the most anticipated and welcomed solution in the high-tech community is The Safe Core OS™ operating system based on Android, with an ultra-secure encryption core for products, including the Wings WX™ smartphone and the Wings X Book™ laptop, which is designed to meet the needs of the blockchain world.

Domenico Cantone, Marketing Director for Wings, delved further, explaining, “The Wings blockchain phone is the first neural hybrid phone with a triple factor authentication and cold storage cryptographic wallet built into the hardware. It is a secure operating system within an open operating system, giving the user the freedom to use any app they please while also ensuring their peace of mind that nothing can threaten their most sensitive personal and financial information.”

One of the many unique security features provided by The Safe Core OS™ solution, which can be read about in more detail from their White Paper, is Wings Neural Face ID™. This technology allows the owner of the Wings WX™ smartphone to create secondary biometric profiles that will access different content with regards to the menu and the application. For example, if a user accesses their phone next to another person, the neural identification device scanning the face of the users immediately recognizes the presence of an unidentified person, and based on previously set configurations, shows an alternate menu. Everything you have decided to keep private will remain private.

The BitWings ICO will strengthen the financial base of Wings Mobile while addressing the increased demand for unique blockchain-based, security solutions for smartphones, plus underpin an accelerated expansion of 36 identified territories, or Business Units, throughout the world.

The Public Sale is divided into four different phases, each with decreasing bonus percentages given to token price. The last 60 Million tokens will be sold with 0% bonus, which is equal to the emission value of $0.20 USD. After the ICO crowdfunding campaign, the tokens can only be purchased in the secondary market, either peer to peer, or through exchange platforms at market value.

Cantone clarified, “BitWings strength as a cryptocurrency comes from holding a true value of $ 0.20 USD at issue, which acts as protection against market fluctuations. In addition, BWN tokens are a medium of exchange within the Wings Mobile ecosystem to purchase products, plus token holders get a 10% discount throughout the entire range of Wings Mobile products and services. Of course, the phone itself is able to generate up to 2 ETH in a month, which is a major bonus.”

The first 40,000 limited edition Wings WX™ smartphones are available only for ICO participants. The ICO Public Sale starts on May 1, 2019, and ends when all 189 Million BWN are sold at the end of June, whichever comes first.

Bianchini concluded, “No matter if you are a crypto miner, a privacy advocate, a high-tech enthusiast, or business-minded person, BitWings has a solution for everyone. Every Wings Mobile offer is on www.bitwings.org, and we invite everyone to become the proud owner of the first ultra-secure smartphone that will generate income.”

Exchanges are definitely not the best places to store your funds, especially if you are more of a long term holder. The number of news pieces talking about exchanges being hacked is getting ridiculous. Keep your crypto on secured devices like Ledger Nano or BitWings' Wings WX phone. You can never be too secure in the world of crypto.

Have heard about Ledger but what's the phone? sounds interesting

Tip #1: Don't lose your keys because of viruses and hackers! (don't like to admit it, but it's from personal experience). Using a phone to trade is convenient but if you're not careful you can get your phone compromised. I guess I forgot the basics of internet behavior when surfing the web on my phone... Yeah, don't do stupid mistakes like this.

Hope you didn't lose that much. I came across an interesting thread yesterday, it's about a crypto phone, you should check it out if you are still eager to trade on ur phone https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=5110359

Re: Guide to Crypto Trading Strategy and Risk Management

Risk management is definitely one of the most important aspects of trading. You can be great at reading charts but if you can't manage your risks, you'll lose your profits faster then a crypto newbie loses his hope for a new lambo after the market crashes. Risk management is not only in choosing the right projects, it is also in optimizing your trading system. You should keep the funds you are not actively trading off the exchange, preferably on a secure device like a hardware wallet like Leger Nano or Trezor, or on a phone that's designed for security like BitWings' Wings WX phone. You should also take into account things like transaction fees and gate fees. And of course your behavior on the internet, although if you have a phone dedicated for security, it won't be as critical, but the correct behavior is still important.

Is that the phone: https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=5110359? Saw it on the forum yesterday, seems quite interesting

Re: How Much Should You Invest in Bitcoin?

on 03/12/2018, 14:22:34 UTC
it all depends how much money you have and how much money you can afford to lose

also thing to consider is that when investing long-term, this money will be unavailable for you to use for at least a year

i mean you can use it, but there is no point to invest it long-term then

Re: Is wallet security important to use?

Always use max security options that they offer you. Use google authenticator or some other similar method. These security options aren't there for no reason. These protect you from someone that wants to hijack your account and steal your funds. If your assets are important to you, which I believe they are, then use maximum security possible.
