    Data privacy is one of the defining issues of the modern internet regulation debate. People have so much information about their personal lives online that is being exploited. Blockchain can allow users to independently store personal data and fully control how it is transferred.

    I don't get it.

    Posted: 31 Jul 2019 01:04 AM PDT

    I really dont. How is it possible that there is so much this unreasonable amount of rivarly and tribalism in this space? Arent we all here for the same cause, to support and invest in what ever project we think will change the world and economics as we know it? None of these companies are our friends, they mostly need us, and we need them but the amount of childish rivarly in this sub is just insane.

    If I hold a coin you dont that doesnt make us rivals, why cant we all have reasonable disucssion? we are all early adopters and I believe every one of us will be rewarded for it once crypto goes mainstream.

    Also that kind of childish attitude might put people off, because my first source for information was this sub when i first invested into crypto, and I was in awe how much people hate comment on each other simply because they have different opinion about different projects.

    I hope this will change and one day we will all be known as 'few' people from reddit who were early in the adoptation process of this huge avalanche of revolution.

    Introducing the world's first free physical card game where you pay/win cryptocurrency

    Posted: 31 Jul 2019 03:01 AM PDT

    Introducing the world's first free physical card game where you pay/win cryptocurrency

    What is this?

    It's a free printable non-profit card game where you by strategic choices makes your friends pay cryptocurrency via QR codes to a common wallet. One player will get the PAYOUT card (if not stolen by another player) which can be swept by a compatible wallet to receive the full pot. It's a replacement of typical FIAT betting and is a fun (I hope) and educational way to get introduced to crypto and you don't need physical coins. Currently, the game has implemented Nano which allows fast and feeless transactions which is essential for this game to work, but any crypto can be used that supports mobile wallets that can send by QR or sweep a private key by QR for the full wallet amount. It's free on github and can be forked and changed however you like.

    Printed Deck (The current design differ slightly)

    Demo Site

    For increased security when generating the private key, the whole site can be downloaded as a zip from github and be run locally offline even without a webserver.

    How to play?

    Gameplay instruction video

    More detailed instructions are on the website but I can give a general idea. Please have a look at this gameplay video.

    • The EVENT and DATA BREACH cards are the ones you scan and send the encoded QR amount with a compatible mobile wallet, like Natrium. They have different properties and payment amounts.
    • HACKER: Can steal a card or force another player to pay a card
    • FIREWALL: Can block a hacking attempt or a DATA BREACH
    • BEST PRACTISE: Can block an EVENT card
    • DOUBLE SPEED: Current player makes two actions
    • DISCONNECTED: Skips one turn
    • PAYOUT: The winner card. The QR contains the private seed

    How do I get a card deck?

    The site will generate a random wallet (or from entering a valid seed), along with random QR payment amounts based on custom min/max values and random card texts. This allows you to play with very small or very large amounts, all up to you!

    • Option1: The 7 card sheets are either directly printable or downloadable for more custom prints. Also comes with a backside and instruction sheet. Then you can cut the cards manually. That is the more or less free version.
    • Option 2: By following the instruction from the site or from this detailed guide you can use the "Pro theme" and order a professional quality deck from https://www.makeplayingcards.com/ for a very decent price.

    Any feedback is welcome, like what other currency to implement!

    Facebook's Libra is the COMPLETE opposite of what crypto was made for

    Posted: 30 Jul 2019 12:11 PM PDT

    From TD Ameritrade Live News:

    " Lawmakers were up in arms this month about whether Libra, Facebook Inc.'s proposed new cryptocurrency, would be a haven for money launderers and other criminal activities.

    Facebook, though, says Libra could be a valuable tool for law enforcement, partly because of the vast amounts of information that will be generated about its users. That was the message Facebook executive David Marcus took to Congress during hearings this month.

    The conversation represents how some portions of the crypto world are trying to move beyond the industry's Wild West heyday and become a viable payments option.

    The ability to use crypto to help catch criminals is ingrained in its structure. Cash is valuable to criminals because there is no transaction or ownership record. Bitcoins carry an unalterable transaction record with them, but not always an ownership record. With Libra, both the transactions made and who made them will be recorded.

    "You're going to see an expansion of exchanges and wallet services that have stronger (anti-money-laundering) protocols and restrictions," said Yaya Fanusie, a former CIA analyst and security consultant. "That would be good for law enforcement." "

    This literally is the exact opposite of what crypto was made for, this is going to be centralized, it will track all payments and then using that tracked information, Facebook will create advertising composite's for people, so that they can better target consumers with advertising. The only people that Libra benefits, is Facebook, and the corporatocracy that will be a part of it. They're mad that they missed out on the initial crypto train and now they want to ride the coat tails of the success of crypto, while adding absolutely nothing of benefit to the infrastructure of the original system.

    Big data is more valuable than oil. (1) Using just a personality test that was "free", our democracy was thwarted, by a company that received access to this data from FACEBOOK. If you think that a company that literally stole it's idea to start with, is run by someone who is interested in anything other than himself, you have another thing coming.
