    Important Mod Team Update - We will test a link whitelist beginning Monday April 29

    Posted: 24 Apr 2019 06:00 AM PDT

    We are making an announcement regarding a test that we are conducing in r/CryptoCurrency. We are testing a whitelist-only link requirement for link posts. All link posts must be to pre-approved sources. While there are some drawbacks to this approach, we feel that this whitelist will allow the best sources to receive more visibility and to encourage participation across communities on less-biased topics.

    This is only a test, and we are doing everything we can to make the transition as seamless as possible. We would like your help to make sure we have an appropriate list of sources before the go-live date. We also want to make sure the community is aware of these new expectations. The test will run for approximately one week. We will closely evaluate the frontpage posts, participation, and community sentiment over this time period.

    How can I apply for my favorite source to be included in the whitelist?

    We have already prepared a list of many top resources. However, we encourage users to submit applications for their favorite sources here. Keep in mind that we only approve the best sources.

    All source decisions will be made in r/CryptoCurrencyMeta. Please discuss this policy change there.

    Isn't this giving mods more control over what is posted?

    Yes and no. Whitelists are more restrictive, yes. However, requiring all sources to meet basic quality standards will take away a lot of post removal subjectivity. Posts about controversial topics are more likely to be discussed and less likely to be removed for being too biased or breaking other rules. While us moderators are still gatekeeping, we are gatekeeping source quality, not content as much. This should hopefully encourage more viewpoints and better conversations with less moderator approval on discussions that have already begun.

    Why can't users just upvote and downvote posts?

    Voting would work if this subreddit wasn't always under constant vote manipulation. Unfortunately, posts of interest to only a select few, with little positive discussion, are typically on the frontpage. We want to encourage more useful materials to be discussed, and we feel that a whitelist is a good way to do this.

    Are links in text posts affected?

    No. Text posts are still subject to our quality standards, but links can go to most other sources. This will help users discuss content that is important but not linked anywhere. Note that you must provide additional surrounding context in text posts. Low-quality text posts will be removed as usual.

    What about memes?

    Memes are still allowed under the same policy, but they must be crossposted from r/CryptoCurrencyMemes, our sister subreddit. There is a limit to the number of memes allowed on the frontpage.

    Will you still approve things in emergency circumstances?

    Yes, if mods are available. However, we will not approve things that are covered in other whitelist sources, daily news and drama, and other similar things. If it follows the other rules, consider using a text post or apply for the whitelist inclusion in advance.


    Thanks for following us on this journey. We hope to make r/CryptoCurrency better for everyone.

    Blockchain in its current form cannot support a mainstream application, so many projects have embraced the “second layer” solutions. So, what exactly the second layer is?

    The amount of USDT printed in the last 3 weeks is equal to the amount printed from Jan 2017-Dec 2017. Let that sink in.

    Posted: 24 Apr 2019 06:59 PM PDT

    Think about it. Within just 3-4 weeks there has apparently been more demand for USDT issuance than pretty much all of 2017. There is more competition in the dollar-peg space, there are more fiat on-ramps where you can buy alts, and crypto is not hot in the media right now and volumes are way down.

    Yet USDT is pumping another $1B within 3-4 weeks. And that's not $0 -> $1B. That's $1B on top of the already $2B that was out there. Yet the crypto space is not even remotely hot these days and user growth is way down everywhere.

    How did you sell your cryptocurrency for fiat between 01-12-2017 and 31-01-2018?

    Posted: 24 Apr 2019 09:04 PM PDT

    I'd imagine that sell volume must have been insane, with buy volume being non existent by comparison (of course, this theory could be incorrect). If you did in fact manage to sell for fiat in the window listed, my questions are as follows:

    Did you have any difficulty?

    What exchange did you sell on?

    Any information would be appreciated.

    Morpheus Network AMA - Lots of pilots with very happy customers

    Posted: 24 Apr 2019 11:24 PM PDT

    https://youtu.be/qpTXKUlWy48

    Summary from TG:

    The SAP co-developed fraud prevention protocol (FPP) is incredible and they are super proud of it. It's ready to go as a drag and drop module for any MN user.... Incredible!

    The reactions from customs brokers and clients using the platform has been amazing. Sending a cross border shipment has "never been this easy."

    Big time corporates using the platform, and Dan mentioned upcoming blog posts / videos with different corporate partners coming in the near future. Can't wait for this. (No new name drops)

    Tokenomics -- he straight read the legal disclaimer for the token sale. This isn't a game... Might be to us moonboys, but this is a thing that could turn this company belly up. Superfluous tokenomics is not going to happen guys. We are getting masternodes which will always be required (per the AMA), and will get a share of APR. That's what's legal, and that's also good enough to provide a vehicle for price appreciation... So we should just accept it!

    Partnership with Cubic is going well and they are eager to get QR codes into the warehouses and also to leverage Cubic's logistics tech.

    Partnerships with Chainlink and Waltonchain haven't really progressed recently -- Chainlink probably due to lack of mainnet, WTC due to more established RFID manufacturers that they are working with. Both will certainly continue to evolve over time. Dan mentioned that the guys he's worked with at Chainlink are brilliant, so they obviously have a good working relationship.

    Revenue is there, bit it's just beer money at the moment. Gave a specific example of a Chinese corporate partner that could take up to 90 days just to manufacture goods to be ready for shipment... The point being these pilots take time to stand up. But when they get all the individual, specific integrations perfected, the complete workflow automation is going to bring home the bacon. That's the goal - build the individual peices now so that later you can out them all together and really change the world.
