My XRP, XLM, BTC, ETH, and XSN are all skyrocketing! I'm calling it now to go even bigger this time next Friday. 

And I've been using XRP for many years actually to move coins around. It's one of the cheapest and fastest ways. I just don't keep the XRP.

Now I am using a Stakenet Lightning DEX for much much cheaper transaction fees and instant swaps!

Data privacy is one of the defining issues of the modern internet. People have so much information about their personal lives online that is being exploited. Blockchain can allow users to independently store personal data and fully control how it is transferred provided that using DEXes...

Here's my Top 3:


3. Blocknet – the so-called "Internet of Blockchains", Blocknet is a decentralized network that connects blockchains, whether through cross-chain dApps or even using a protocol as a second layer to extend the blockchain functionality, Blocknet provides its developers the authority to establish applications that will secure digital transactions. Blocknet offers its lightweight and multi-asset wallet called the XLite. With the use of XLite, Blocknet's stakeholders can manage to buy, sell, and store cryptocurrencies. Connecting the XLite wallet to Block DEX will allow vast trading opportunities for Blocknet users. The Blocknet team recently announced that the project will partner up with Avalanche, an open-source platform for launching highly decentralized applications, new financial primitives, and new interoperable blockchains to power up Blocknet's chain interoperability with almost every other blockchain today. This strategic move by the community will pose numerous benefits such as the development of interchain dApps leveraging contracts on Avalanche, smart contract/Defi ecosystem integration of Blocknet technology, and many more.

2. Uniswap – founded by Mr. Hayden Adam, the Uniswap launched in November of 2018. Uniswap is an Ethereum-based DEX that removes the concept of order books and makes good use of the AMM setup. It offers a simple interface swap to any two Ethereum assets against an underlying liquidity pool. Uniswap has two (2) versions, with version one as an on-chain system of smart contracts on the Ethereum blockchain that implements an automated liquidity protocol based on constant product formula. The other one offers new implementation based on the same formula, with several highly remarkable features. Uniswap is a fully decentralized, open-source exchange platform that provides incentivized liquidity pools, waived listing fees, and affordable costing of any DEX. Its incentivizing system is directed towards people trading on the exchange to become liquidity providers. Uniswap users pool their money together to create a fund that is used to execute all trades that take place on the system. The Uniswap version two (V2) that offers many new features and improvements including but not limited to; price oracles, flash swaps, and ERC 20/ ERC 20 pairs, has caught the attention of many crypto fanatics, as it is continuously being acknowledged as one of the best DEXs that is actively available online.

1. SushiSwap – is an AMM DEX that currently resides within the Ethereum blockchain. SushiSwap launched in September 2020 as a fork of Uniswap. It aims to diversify and strengthen to AMM market by adding exciting features which will help improve its functions compared to what is currently being provided by Uniswap. The SushiSwap ecosystem offers exchange, liquidity pools, and staking which servers their respective purposes for the project's prosperity. The popularity of SushiSwap today has made it one of the top DEXs by trading volume both in CoinGecko and CoinMarketCap's listing, and is expected to exponentially grow its value this YEAR!!!

Congrats to all who wait for a bit on ADA.

My thing is to have a few coins that you really believe in...

Sometimes, I would (if I had to) PUT everything into a coin. Fate is tied pretty directly to ADA, the next coin coming up... LINK, DIVI, and ETH.

I believed in hodling...  I've been holding DIVI coin since ICO, I've seen so much more growth since then.

Don't worry about me I properly-diversified my crypto portfolio. Hold approximately 75% of the top-10 coins and 25% well-researched lower-cap coins... (CPI tokens, YLD, etc.)

What are your Top Crypto Picks for April that you think have massive potentials? Or maybe your top 5 coins that you heavily invested in.

My picks were Monero, ALGO, THETA, PUNDIX, and DIVI coin... This is my potential coins. Might add some NFT tokens sooon!

5,000,000 Max Supply? Sounds good!

However, many alts are already using the BIC ticker symbol. I found your website but took me some time...

Hit me with both hands, but this DEX is full of good stuff and really piques my interest...

Maybe DEXes is not the one you wanted but I tell you, it's the one that we needed. So let me start by defining what is Blocknet DEX...

Blocknet is a second-layer blockchain interoperability protocol that enables communication, interaction, and exchange between and among different blockchains. As a truly decentralized exchange platform, Blocknet is not restricted within the control of an intermediary or a single entity. The project is open source and supports its own development and innovation through self-funding mechanisms. It is also considered as a Proo-of-Stake (PoS) blockchain with its utility token called BLOCK.

To be called "the internet of blockchains" is an admirable title that entails the burden of being at the top of the system. Thanks to Blocknet's community and contributors, the essential requisites to be considered a one-of-a-kind DEX can be found in the Blocknet protocol. Blocknet was designed to be a platform of interoperability, allowing multiple existing and upcoming blockchain names to be implemented freely and trade with one another within the network. It also provides the indisputable need for secure and trustless service delivery with its clients. Being a decentralized blockchain, Blocknet ensures high security and high determinacy of transactions within the network while removing the participation of a counterparty or middleman in all of its clients' activities. Its composability and monetizability joined together will allow it to live up and develop to address the ever-changing demands of people and time.

The project's Block DX/DEX was considered as the first true decentralized exchange that enables trading to other connected blockchains. Participants within the network conduct their orders on a peer-to-peer basis within the decentralized order books and matching. Moreover, the Block DEX features waived account requirements and payment for listing, as well as trustless and private trading.

Blocknet's solutions for the peer-to-peer interconnection between different blockchains makes the following considerations for the present time and in the near future reachable:


One for All DEX Platform – Blocknet's existence makes it possible for any crypto and blockchain service to contact and integrate with one another. It will also allow blockchain services to act as protocol services that may be used by any other decentralized applications towards other blockchains.   

Ease of Use and Flexibility for Decentralized Applications and Smart Contracts – dApps will stand as intuitive inter-chain services with a much simpler design that can be upgraded or fixed accordingly. The building of dApps with a microservice architecture where blockchains can deliver services can also be realized within the given category. On the other hand, smart contracts will play their role as protocol tokens that do not only monetize dApps but also harness their great potential towards crypto utilization.

Digital World Business – cryptoeconomically-driven business models ushered in by blockchain technology are possible with Blocknet being a functional and foundational infrastructure for the token ecosystem.

Blocknet's decent structure composition and design make it fit to take up the noble and insurmountable task of connecting isolated blockchain systems to establish a coherent platform for everyone.

Blocknet is one of the earliest projects to address the need for decentralized finance and atomic swap networks.

I bought my first BLOCK last year month of November at 9 cents and check it today after 3 Months lol

Here are some of the research and updates I garnered despite the unprecedented events which grossly affected society and the way people live their lives over the past year, the development family behind Blocknet never ceased to further improve its platform and operability. The Blocknet toolkit has continuously advanced further in its mission to maintain its decentralized solutions for crypto exchange.

The following features were tirelessly worked upon by the Blocknet team during the last quarter of the year 2020:

CloudChain Lite Multi-Wallet – to further improve Block DX's trading volume, a new lite multi-wallet was proposed to be developed. With this application, users will be able to trade on the platform without downloading tons of additional chains.
Atomic Swaps With XBridge – XBridge is a decentralized exchange layer that connects any blockchain assets via cross-chain atomic swaps. The XBridge platform is designed to be an extension of the Block DX exchange, permitting the introduction of trustless atomic swaps of supported assets listed within the exchanges. The team has envisioned XBridge to be the solution to cross-connect with Ethereum within the Blocknet ecosystem.

BLOCK-DeFi (Decentralized Finance) Integration – DeFi si considered to be an emerging disruptive force in the financial world that is confined mostly to the Etheruem blockchain only, preventing the innovation of other blockchains from easily providing their services. This also prevents Bitcoin from functioning on a full scale in DeFi's ecosystem. The blocknet team is in the process of coming up with an ERC20 version in the native BLOCK token. Once available, this Blocknet's ERC20 version can be coordinated into Ethereum's blockchain, widening Blocknet's scope of possible crypto trading options. 

Moving onwards, Blocknet's Roadmap has provided the following projects currently in development:

Blocknet Core Wallet 4.3.2 – following the latest 4.3.1 update which focused on several improvements to partial orders as well as with the UI updates including Coin Control tree view, a new Balances screen, Addressing Book fixes, and removal of address labels when sending and receiving coins, this future update will provide solutions to the disappearing stake issue which was experienced by some of the core wallet's users.

XRouter JS Library – XRouter is a decentralized communication layer that connects bulky blockchain networks to the lightweight multi-chain decentralized applications of the future. With the use of XRouter, decentralized applications can make use of the services and verify data on any type of blockchain, without the need to host blockchains locally. The XRouter JS Library upgrade will permit its developers to exploit XRouter without the use of Blocknet wallet for lightweight plug-and-play integration.
Hydra – Enterprise XRouter – a new Nginx reverse proxy capable of interfacing with XRouter is under development. This will open the connection to not only consumers but also to enterprises as well, thereby granting the facilitation of hundreds to millions of requests per second.
Conduct of Partial Orders on Block DX – there being no options to perform partial trades in a decentralized exchange, the Blocknet community has come up with the idea to construct partial order support for Block DX.
Support for Eighteen (18) Decimals in XBridge – it shall be noted that in the last quarter of the year 2020, the Blocknet team has made its move to use XBridge as a means to integrate with the Ethereum ecosystem. This update will enable eighteen (18) decimal places in XBridge to support the ETH/ERC-20 integration throughout the Blocknet ecosystem.

As announced in Blocknet's theblocknetchannel.medium.com, Blocknet's new roadmap is returning its focus to the goal of building out interchain infrastructure and tools that will foster the development of a completely decentralized blockchain ecosystem. The Blocknet relies on the finality reached by interoperating blockchains themselves and enables users to prove chain state without hosting the chain locally. With its upcoming product of decentralized applications, the library for interchain trading, XBridge atomic swap options, and Hydra XRouter upgrades, its goal for a decentralized blockchain ecosystem is gradually being realized.

BTC is considered the safest (grain of salt here because crypto is still incredibly volatile).

So I think something conservative portfolio would be maybe 80 BTC/15 ETH/5 DIVI (BTC/ETH/altcoin of your choosing).

If I want a more aggressive portfolio, I need to lower BTC holding, up ETH a little, and up your third coin? Is it a good plan?
With about a grand in USD to gamble. I probably don’t want to spread myself much thinner than 3 coins of course.

There are new rumors circulating that banks are planning to bought BTC. If that happens I'm sure it will be a big boost to adaption.
Meanwhile, institutional adaption is taking place like Tesla, Paypal, etc. A project like DIVI can be the gateway because it's making finance easy and accessible to everyone.

Governments around the world are currently in the same dilemma with the disbursement of stimulus checks to families. If the IRS does not have direct deposit information, on-hand checks can be mailed but will take longer to arrive and cost more to process. Some fintech companies, including Square and PayPal have been trying to become disbursers of these funds. Yet, it will still need 2-3 business days to process. That's one scenario.

What about the companies? On the farm? Mailing commission checks overseas? Having a workforce that is under and unbanked? These are the challenges we have in the midst of the Pandemic Virus. And in times like these where receiving pay quickly and securely is of the utmost importance, I think DIVI has the products, technologies and the solution to make people's lives easier.

I don't buy much crypto. I'm probably going to pause and observe for a while until the whole SEC mess is sorted out against crypto.

BUT I WILL BE DEFINITELY be looking into this DEX when I decide to buy again.

 Liquidity is low currently but Blocknet is the real DEX with atomic swaps. No KYC, you keep your keys. Blocknet has XBridge.
 XBridge is a decentralized exchange layer that connects any blockchain asset via cross-chain atomic swaps.

Forgive me for being a newbie but don't worry I researched before I typed. I found out that Blocknet will launch Hydra soon and I'm excited to see how the community will learn that Blocknet will have decentralized replacement for Infura. As a matter of fact, I am starting to promote Blocknet DEX to my friends and colleagues and on Social Media as well.

If the community will introduce the project to their friends. I'm sure we will see Block at $7 in February.

Getting listed on Bitfinex is like an investment and it was so goooood...

Everything needs to be good to go, keep moving forward. There will be more eyes soon as the team will continue to complete more of this Tier 1 exchange listing.

I just bought the 31K BTC dip, let's see how it goes from here haha
This is a healthy pullback and the time to buy. 

Investing in miners are some new options like NVIDIA if you are looking for one and DEX's are still going to be a good play too during this correction. As for MINERS they'll mine the bitcoins regardless, if they can get them cheaper they'll hopefully get more so their yield average will always increase. But do it at your own risk. Because it's not actually always profitable. Depends on your situation. The competition will be the large Chinese mining farms using literal free hydro energy. And if you may be interested in buying Block in Blocknet DEX that would work too.

I just want to share how win-win situation we have here on Blocknet.. So let me comment on the potential gains from just being node owners.
This is off the top of my head, and I know I'm leaving out an aspect of how the money would grow but I liked to share the idea of "impermanent loss."

Ex.
Say you do make 100% from fees in a year. Then plus the total worth, you stake. Let's also say the price of Block goes up 15x in that year.. So your total will be massive.. Making a profit from trading fees while holding your BLOCK 

Blocknet income-producing asset is a thing of BEAUTY!

I heard some encouraging news that ERC-20 BLOCK is Now Live on Ethereum!
ERC-20 BLOCK will bridge and provides Blocknet with direct access to the large capital reserves that exist on the Ethereum network.
This good news of major expansion will increase the liquidity and access to the platform.

The community is rejoicing and extremely grateful for the hard work and all the effort of Blocknet Team.

On top of that, AltSeason started yesterday Cheers everyone!

To anyone here who has spent the time to understand Blocknet consensus protocols (somewhat large amount of), it is clear that they are not too technical as it sounds.

And my one plus for Block is so cheap and can settle transactions fast and easily. They will also replace Ethereum's centralized node with "infura" to give ETH users a decentralized data transmission choice.

Happy Holiday Season to all the people here.
Hoping for xrp to make a miraculous comeback haha

I will not take a risk until the comeback..
Not a risk-taker person. I'd rather prefer the small risk project like Blocknet..
