The Spanish media is increasingly shit-talking about cryptocurrency, especially ETH and BTC Posted: 28 Dec 2017 02:49 AM PST I've seen every now and then multiple articles despising the whole crypto game, but lately this is happening everyday on pretty much any newspaper I buy. I tend to think it is the bank institutions paying to the newspapers to persuade the population into getting away from it, but ofc this is just me ranting. Does the same thing happen in your countries? I'm curious about it [link] [comments] | ||

The Ethereum Foundation itself is responsible for creating and supporting a thriving community! Posted: 28 Dec 2017 07:35 AM PST In response to the current discussion around the shortcomings of the community in general and to the comments of Vitalik in particular I want to add the following line of thought: 2 years ago the discussions within this community were centered around technical aspects. As a curious amateur I remember when I first clicked on the ethereum.org website, how excited I was for the endless opportunities, and at the same time I was confused because it was almost impossible for me to imagine how these ideas will look in practice. But I imagined how much more time, quality of living and energy people would have in a world where this vision of using software to change the flow information, wealth and power became reality. Towards the end of last year most of the energy started being spent on developing proprietary concepts, and the number of ERC20 tokens exploded. The Open Source idea of ethereum seemed to be neglected, and instead of thinking about how to make truly decentralized, liquid and democratic organizations a reality (be it in corporations, university or politics) or truly cut out the middle men, everyone simply copied a contract to create almost arbitrary ERC20 tokens out of thin air. I remember after the first ICO (DGX), people here were discussing how Digix aims to cut themselves out and establish a real DAO. After the first ICOs, this point was almost completely forgotten. Not only that, but to the majority even the decentralized aspect doesn't matter anymore, so you just have a pretty normal company that issues tokens to manipulate people into buying. It takes time, integrity and energy to bring the ideals of ethereum into the real world. The most work is to be done where the technology and the real world come together. Hundreds of thousands of people flocked towards ethereum with curiosity and a selfish desire to make money. Unfortunately there was not much more to do than to make money, so most people stopped there. Anyway. My whole point is: While we live in a partially toxic culture which worships shortsighted self-interest, the responsibility of establishing a thriving community is solely in the hands of the Ethereum Foundation. Give people the tools to be truly excited about the possibilities of ethereum! People have indirectly given you hundreds of millions of dollars to execute your vision. Build a culture of innovation within the organization with that money! You can't blame the lack of monetary incentives. Enhance your profile so people can spot the difference between the open source base layer and everything else! Communicate with the public in a coherent and easy-to-understand way! The EF mission, in their own words, is to "promote and support Ethereum platform and base layer research, development and education to bring decentralized protocols and tools to the world" When I go to ethereum.org/foundation, I don't see if the EF is doing any work to actually bring the mission statement into reality. Maybe they are actively doing it. But to me as a layman there's no way to interact with an Open Source movement that is not coherently communicating. From looking at the website, the EF looks almost abandoned. Who are the members? (Are there more than 3?) Who is leading the organization? What's the plan for coping with the sudden growth and popularity? Is the Foundation limited to the Core Devs? Who is running the day to day activities within the organization and marketing? What is the EF doing to promote their mission? How much funds are available? Which projects and studies are running at the moment? Which are concluded and what did they accomplish? How are the funds being used exactly? Which local structures does the EF support to grow a decentralized ecosystem? How are the local structures incentivized to work on protocols and tools? Why is the Ethereum Wallet still not usable for average people at all? As long as the EF is not actually building and scaling a transparent, efficient and productive organizational structure that holds itself accountable towards it's mission statement, there is indeed a real possibility of ethereum being taken over by greedy people whose primary motivation is to simply extract as much money out of the technology, even if it dies in the process. In the end it is about whether the community can attract empathetic people who see and feel the consequences of their actions beyond their personal life. We are embedded in a society that desperately needs a structural renewal on many levels. From all blockchain projects ethereum enjoys one of the least pathological environments. The goals of the EF are by definition in contrast to contemporary society, i.e. disruptive. Lots of players will be hostile or indifferent towards true change. But I'm optimistic there are enough people out there wo see the greater picture and are willing to work for a livable future. [link] [comments] | ||
Dear /r/ethereum i need your help with my Dissertation Posted: 28 Dec 2017 11:28 AM PST I am currently a fourth-year student writing my dissertation on the topic of CryptoCurrency and Criminality. I would really appreciate your time to fill out a short survey exploring the topic of the average CryptoCurrency user. If you have any questions regarding the survey you can email me at B00265888@studentmail.uws.ac.uk or post a comment here and I'll try my best to reply to them in a timely manner. The survey can be found at: https://www.questionpro.com/t/ANzBoZbIKv Any and all responses would be appreciated. Thank you for your time [link] [comments] | ||
Any animated videos to show how Ethereum works? Posted: 28 Dec 2017 09:43 AM PST Hi everyone, I'm looking for some Ethereum infographic or video to help not only me understand, but for anyone I show to understand as well. Is there such video? [link] [comments] | ||
Posted: 28 Dec 2017 09:00 AM PST Imagine the mainchain is a forest. There are many other ppl in the forest, everyone is a participant. Some strangers and you go into a little wooden forest hut. In there, you change values. F.e. you give 5eth to someone, the others are watching you. When you leave the house, the others and you will tell everybody outside whats the "new" balance of everybody and the others agree on that. And if you want to built a hut (running a full node), you need $ in eth to do (proof of stake). Please feel that free to correct me or add something. Btw. Don't dump waste into our forests. ...we cannot eat cryptocurrency. [link] [comments] | ||
Any fully functional dapps on the testnets? Posted: 28 Dec 2017 09:25 AM PST Something silly and fun to show my friends the power and versatility of ethereum as a platform. [link] [comments] | ||
Mechanism Design in Ethereum - Topic for research Posted: 28 Dec 2017 12:39 PM PST Hello, I am currently doing a Ph.D course in Game Theory. One of the course requirements is to write a term paper in a topic in game theory, and I thought it would be splendid to do something about mechanism design and ethereum. Are there any researchers already trying to answer some questions in this? Is there any published research about ethereum and mechanism design? Thanks in advance [link] [comments] | ||
Blockies implementation for Swift Posted: 28 Dec 2017 09:36 AM PST Finally mobile wallets can have our beloved Blocky identicons like in Ethereum Wallet, Mist, MyEtherWallet, ... [link] [comments] | ||

Are decentralized Certificate Authorities possible? Posted: 28 Dec 2017 11:55 AM PST One huge point of weakness of the current internet is the fact that HTTPS requires a signature by a "trusted" third party. Would it be possible to implement a decentralized TLS Certificate Authority? [link] [comments] | ||
Posted: 28 Dec 2017 02:56 PM PST I was discussing Plasma in another thread yesterday and ended up re-reading some of the documentation. Addressing the withdrawal-attack issue:

Can someone start their own Ethereum copy? Posted: 28 Dec 2017 08:03 AM PST I am wondering if someone could simply copy and paste the code of Ethereum's infrastructure and start another one that is identical in structure? Not to say it would be of any value, but just wondering if that even can be done. Thanks in advance! [link] [comments] | ||
Posted: 28 Dec 2017 06:13 AM PST I think having all the deposit being slashed out while violating the slashing condition (i.e., publish two or more distinct votes.) is not acceptable. I think a validator might accidentally but not malicious publish two distinct votes. It might be software bug, hardware reset, being hacked, etc. It looks to me being a validator is extremely risky since I may loss all my deposits. Under POW consensus, the cost of a malicious miner is only the power consumed. Can we have a similar magnitude of penalty to POS validators? Maybe slashing out 5%~10% deposit? My concern is that if all deposits might be slashed out, most people will not be willing to deposit and become validators. Or people will only deposit a small portion to be a validator. Then a malicious attacker will be more likely succeed. [link] [comments] | ||
Which wallet is safer: MyEtherWallet or web wallets for each individual ETH token? Posted: 28 Dec 2017 07:44 AM PST | ||
Posted: 28 Dec 2017 07:51 PM PST Lunet is a crypto community focused on fun and simple dapps. LUNET is a PoS ERC20 / ERC223 token. LUNETS are mined at a rate of 1 LUNET per 1 staked ETH per day. The miner is available now and you can use it here. Click the "learn" button on the miner page for more information. Drop by the subreddit to join the community and follow along with this early stage project. [link] [comments] | ||
Posted: 28 Dec 2017 07:03 AM PST I'm seeing paid PR articles announcing a hard fork on ethereum. "Fork height: 4936270 blockAllocation: Total supply is approximately 116 million ETZReserve 20 million ETZ for subsequent development Newly increased: approximately 6 million ETZ per year (almost 5% inflation and declining every year)1 ETH distributes 1 ETZ" See: https://news.bitcoin.com/pr-etherzero-a-revolutionary-ethereum-hard-fork-forking-on-19th-jan-2018/ http://etherzero.org Legit or Scam?

Posted: 28 Dec 2017 03:18 PM PST Hey everyone. Do we know if there is anything in the works (with Casper maybe) to have ETH connect with different ERC-20 tokens or perhaps different blockchains? I see some other projects that are developing to fill this need and was curious if Ethereum has something in the works. Thanks! EDIT: For clarity, I am referring to projects like ARK, AION, Blocknet [link] [comments] | ||
Can you store any ERC20 Tokens onto your Ledger through Ethereum? Posted: 28 Dec 2017 07:02 PM PST | ||
Posted: 28 Dec 2017 12:56 PM PST I'm interested in how crypto-economics and virtuous circles can incentivize data production/collection. Following are some basic questions I don't have a solid grasp on, any resources or responses are appreciated.
I'd like to place sensors in beehives around the world to monitor colony collapse syndrome. This would require lots of individual beekeepers to place and maintain sensors and upload their data to a blockchain.
I am aware of projects like TruSet under the ConsenSys umbrella that are seeking to incentivize the standardization of financial data, but I don't have a firm grasp on how verification of data and production of data is rewarded. Thanks in advance! [link] [comments] | ||
