They look pretty similar by concept.

You can use bitUSD or bitCNY smart-coin on the decentralised exchange of Bitshares.
There is no need to trust a 3rd party for them, because it's the market that keeps the peg.

Volumes are quite high on them at the moment so you have fungibility.
bitCNY volume today : 17 millions ( https://coinmarketcap.com/currencies/bitcny/ )
bitUSD volume today : 700 k ( https://coinmarketcap.com/currencies/bitusd/ )

All that it shows is that ETH is weak if it can be attacked like that.
The rest is PR.

If you don't want account to be frozen,
you just have to vote for one block producer that will not freeze them (out of 21) and you'll be done.
Unlike Bitcoin or Ethereum where you would need to buy huge amount off hash power.

Re: Venezuela will launch a commodity-backed "petro" cryptocurrency (unmoderated)

Correction : Petro is the unit name (like BTC), Mene is the Satoshi equivalent.

I think it will be a milestone in the cryptocurrency history.
At last, we will see if crypto is state resistant, and by state I mean USA/CIA.
For sure the CIA will try to attack the Petro which is threatening the USA petrodollar.

I'd be ready to invest, just for the middle finger to TPTB !!!

For reall stable coin, use any fiat pegged bitasset on the Bitshares blockchain.
For example : BitUSD BitEuro BitCNY BitGold BitSilver.
Well as long as you consider fiat as stable Smiley

Re: [ANN] AMP - The Currency That Powers Your Attention On Synereo

Was wondering, I haven't researched these new programming languages being mentioned as the key to Synereo's success, but they
raise a question immediately, especially if they are still being developed.

Can one really trust a new language to create working solutions when that language itself has never produced a real world product before?
Can't existing languages just create new objects and functions to do what you need to do?

I guess the new language is to be used to program the DApp not the core of synereo.

Re: Does anyone ever look at "Announcements (Altcoins)" anymore?
by

on 25/11/2016, 10:26:41 UTC
We should make 2 sections :

- New coin, for all the new announcement.
- Old coin, for the announcement that are older than 3 months for example.

The threads would be moved from one to another automatically based on their date.
Optionally we could have a third one named trash for thread without a new message in 1 month.

With that you could follow what is happening in the good old coin without being bothered with the new crap.
And that will leave some visibility to the new ones without being overwhelmed by all the discussion in the old ones.

Re: Is there a stable cryptocurreny?

BitUSD from the BitShares network is supposed to be stable (pegged) to the USD.
And it doesn't use a 3rd party trust as tether do.

The only problem is the volume of transaction that is low for now.

How do you control all the interactions between one person and the content ?
If you do it by the network, then it will be a privacy nightmare, all your interactions with the content could be monitored !

If not monitored, you can't enforce it's trustfulness and you are susceptible to Sybil attack, or fake behavior.

That's where the DendroNET comes in, allowing a local consensus to be created. There's no one truth source (a centralized entity), but the part of the network around you can "vouch" for claims made in it.
Thanks for your answers, I'll continue to shoot Smiley

If there is no global consensus, how do you validate the distribution of AMPs ?

The fact that I read a post is made public or not ?

The only global consensus with have is for AMPs, which are a conserved quantity. That's what we use the blockchain and the Omnilayer for.
And no, it will not be made public. Generally, there are very few things that people on the network have to know about you if you interact with them. You have a lot of control over who gets to see what.

That doesn't explain how the network decide who get the Amp for reading content !?

Your node decides based on the view of the network available to it.

If it's my node, then I can corrupt it and make it so that it give me all the Amp that pass by.

Your node decides this only when it's the one investing AMPs in content. Smiley

So the node who is investing Amp in content knows who read it ?

No. You decide how much you want to invest (and can optionally select a few parameters and "strategies" if you want to use the advanced settings) and the rest is handled outside of your control.

I'm sorry but this is really shady...

Can you tell who is controlling this.
Please explain the different step from someone paying to have his content amplified to someone recieving the AMP for reading it.
- Where is the information rooted ?
- Where is the decision made ?
