There’s No Point In Cloud Mining Bitcoin Until BTC Hits $8,900.00
Cloud mining to me is quite ironic. I often see the cloud as the first generation of the blockchain, the younger sibling that the blockchain wants to compete with, yet, a large majority of blockchain activity takes place through cloud mining, interesting right? Or perhaps I’m over thinking it. дальше »

Notes on Blockchain Governance
In which I argue that “tightly coupled” on-chain voting is overrated, the status quo of “informal governance” as practiced by Bitcoin, Bitcoin Cash, Ethereum, Zcash and similar systems is much less bad than commonly thought, that people who think that the purpose of blockchains is to completely expunge soft mushy human intuitions and feelings in favor of completely algorithmic governance (emphasis on “completely”) are absolutely crazy, and loosely coupled voting as done by Carbonvotes and similar systems is underrated, as well as describe what framework should be used when thinking about blockchain governance in the first place. дальше »

Zcash Is Hard Forking: What Will Happen?
Called “Overwinter,” the update requires all users of the nearly $800 million blockchain to switch to a new software. That’s because the next hard fork upgrade, called Sapling, is all about eliminating the weight of the protocol’s private transaction types so that zcash can scale to more users.
