    So here's a rant.

    To the part of the Ethereum community who are neutral/friendly towards Microsoft: why do you maintain that cognitive dissonance?

    How many here have heard about Ethergit, the in-the-making effort to realize code collaboration and version management on top of Ethereum, using Swarm?

    How many here have heard about Swarm?

    Has the Ethereum Foundation considered allocating more resources to the heavily underfunded development of Swarm, which is supposed to be Etherum's own content storage system, part of the Ethereum vision since the beginning?

    Will we wait until the first "We're sorry, you can't commit that right now." message appears?

    Isn't this urgent anyway since developers are talking about shoving old blocks onto torrent and IPFS instead of Swarm, due to Swarm not being ready to serve that purpose?

    Oracles + Market Data

    Posted: 03 Dec 2018 04:45 AM PST

    Are there any services (oracles) offering market data in Ethereum?

    Things like the price of Gold, etc.

    I have googled a bit and notice that most services use a "callback" model, where I request a price with some gas, and the service subsequently calls a method on my smart contract. Is anyone out there taking a "publisher" approach, where they load the data onto the blockchain? Or would that approach be prohibitively expensive?

    fyi: I'm not really bothered about SGX, I just want reliable, trusted data.

    Solidity Engineer considering moving to Berlin. What organisations are based there? What is the community like?

    Posted: 03 Dec 2018 05:03 AM PST

    I'm considering moving to Berlin in a few months. I'm currently unemployed but I'm a competent Solidity Engineer and will find work in something Ethereum based. Since I won't know many people there I would rather not work remotely so I'm interested to know what Ethereum based organisations have offices there. I'm also curious to hear about how the community is regarding meetups and socials. Are there many technical ones, are the discussions useful, do you learn much at them? Thanks in advance for any replies.

    ETH and GAS Exam Prep Questions

    Posted: 03 Dec 2018 08:09 PM PST

    I have a Grad final exam in 2 days and unfortunately, I am still struggling with the ETH and GAS concept when it comes to developing smart contracts. Really appreciate input on some questions:

    • When I am developing a smart contract, do I set the ETH / Gas ratio?
    • Do users/callers of the contact's methods also set their own ETH / GAS ratio?
    • Do miners pick and execute the highest ETH / Gas bidder Tx?

    Let's think of this example that I just made up:

    • 1 ETH = $100 Today
    • I set my contract with the ratio 1 ETH = 100 Gas
    • so to run fun1 assume it costs 100 Gas .. so today it costs $100
    • Assume 1 ETH is $1000 tomorrow .. this means that to run fun1 tomorrow it costs $1000??

    How did Gas help solve the ETH price volatility? Correct me if I am wrong, but wasn't this the reason behind the Gas concept?

    Is Ethereum a sovereign entity? What does that even mean?

    Posted: 03 Dec 2018 09:22 AM PST

    I've heard that Vitalik once said, "Bitcoin is the first technology that I've ever loved, which loves me back." After two Bitcoin addresses joined people, countries and companies on the OFAC list, last week, I started thinking about that quote and the ways decentralized networks challenge ideas about sovereignty. If corporations can be people, can a DAO be people? Can "sovereign code" be people? I organized some of these ideas into a post, here: https://medium.com/@galenmoore/if-bitcoin-can-love-you-back-can-it-sue-you-bddd609459c8. Comments welcome, if you have time to read this kind of daydreaming stuff.

    Smart Contract ICO question. no need to upvote I just want some questions answered

    Posted: 03 Dec 2018 11:31 AM PST

    From my Understanding on an ICO fundraise. A smart contract that is written correctly would perform said action automatically.

    Steps

    1) Investor Sends ETH --> 2) Smart contract of TOKEN automation ->3) Investor recieves ICO tokens.

    Now my question is If the devs decided to send tokens out "manually" or a semi smart contract , Can they theoretically send out tokens to addresses without needing Step 1) sending btc/eth

    If there was a "under the table partnership" deal in real life. The devs could send tokens to the buyers personal address this way.

    example : Google wants to invest in Mycoin , Google writes a cheque for 10m dollars My coin sends tokens to googles private wallet.

    ^ an issue I have with this is it can also be abused to say a deal took place but it really never happened.

    My real concern is that Can this feature be abused? We know that Devs lock up their tokens for a period of time but could they theoretically pocket tokens in their private wallets this way without anybody knowing? to friends and family even.

    Is there a way to track these kind of shady activities?
