    Coinbase opening 2nd HQ in Portland

    Posted: 23 Sep 2018 04:38 PM PDT

    I have bought my first crypto 2 years ago, haven't sold anything and been very active ever since! However, this is the first time I had someone contacting me, trying to scam BTC off of me. For educational purposes and as a reminder, I thought I post this for newcomers to always be careful.

    Are Proof of Work Blockchains like Bitcoin Cryptographically Safe Against Light-Based or Quantum Hardware?

    Posted: 24 Sep 2018 01:54 AM PDT

    Basically, I found on another thread here that leaked research from the Skynet project that is developing some type of Light-based hardware for blockchains aside from their blockchain chips and IoT blockchain network. Didn't see very good responses about any Photonic-based cryptography so wanted to try asking again.

    My questions:

    1. People usually talk about Quantum Proof but the Field of Photonics seems to be possibly more advanced than quantum processors. Since Light-Based hardware is millions of times faster than conventional hardware, would Photonic ASICs be good at breaking public-key cryptography?

    2. Is Ethereum or Bitcoin resistant to Photonic Proof of Work or Quantum Proof of Work given their current consensus models?

    3. If so, what would be the ways to prevent it from happening?

    Paper: https://drive.google.com/file/d/1iBc9RJyuJm6cTt7XlIZM7sYXA4j7Frcm/view

    Project Reference: http://skynet.co/

    "One of the possible research areas and implementations of Skynet is a single-node photonic RC design with the Inception core. This would enable the Skynet Core to use minimal power while processing millions of times faster than conventional hardware. One of the major problems in today's computer science is the development of new hardware that could accelerate machine learning techniques. That hardware should be inherently fast, energy-efficient, and address information exchange bottlenecks present in now ubiquitous Von Neumann architecture. We will focus specifically on the so-called single-node photonic RC, which promises additional benefit of high-speed information processing and a solution to the high-degree network connectivity problem, based on complex nonlinear delay dynamics."

    Although it's really tempting please don't shill projects. There's got to be a couple cryptographers in this subreddit.

    Blockchain for safe investments: BlokBiz will deploy the financial platform for managing investments in crypto-assets to prevent SCAM's damage to private investors for over $400 million.

    Posted: 24 Sep 2018 01:00 AM PDT

    Hello, r/CryptoCurrency!

    Briefly saying, BlokBiz is the accelerator of ICOs and Hub for keeping safe-investments in crypto-assets.

    Business audit, Compliance check and Secure check for smart-contracts

    Usually, investors have no opportunity to conduct full assay of the project, and in the end decide to invest based on personal beliefs and willful trust. This is incorrect, and the statistic shows that more than $400 mln were stolen on ICOs in 2017/2018 due to the investors unprofessionalism*

    That's crucial - to know all about the ICO and make correct conclusions. Private investors have no time and resources to do it, that's why BlokBiz will conduct the business research before offering something to invest in:

    • Сheck the competencies of team members,
    • Explore the potential of the target market,
    • Сheck the company for legality

    On the basis of these data, BlokBiz can get the image of the financial potential of the project and value the risks.

    Refund of risks

    If the company, listed on BlokBiz doesn't reach its milestones, the investors will get the refund in XBZ tokens for an amount of loss. Also XBZ tokens grant the opportunity to get a part of the company's income.

    Token Details

    ​

    Ticker XBZ
    Type ERC-20, Ethereum network
    Token Supply 10,000,000
    Token Distribution Angels & Advisors 7.5% l BlokBiz Team 6.5% l Pre-Sale Soft cap 35% l Hard cap 43.5%
    Appointment Insurance of investment transactions, receipt of a company's share (KYC required), right to vote.

    Ask questions keep discussions about the project, its technology and so on associated

    Thank you for being here. Have a nice week!
