    Ethereum hits new milestone, with now over 200,000 ERC20 smart contracts deployed on mainnet

    Today the Monero inflation rate dropped below that of BTC

    Posted: 05 Aug 2019 03:01 AM PDT

    Most altcoin "halvenings" are hyped hugely, leading to volatility, pumps and crashes. Monero doesn't get hyped like that because the emission rate drops smoothly with every block, making it less rough and disruptive for miners that otherwise suffer abrupt profitability changes.

    As a result, few think about how scarce it is. For example, LTC's halving is being celebrated but it is still a halving behind Bitcoin. There are less reminders that the scarcity is always increasing, so I am writing this as a reminder.

    Arizona testing marijuana payment system via stablecoin

    Arizona testing marijuana payment system via stablecoin

    source article

    This doesn't just include medical marijuana users. The Arizona state government announced that a company named Alta just got the go-ahead to pilot a payment service specifically for buying marijuana from approved vendors.

    The COO of Alta said that such services provide greater safety to marijuana users who otherwise would have to pay cash and possibly not get what they asked for.

    This program is coming as part of the regulatory sandbox that Arizona launched in 2018.

    What is Andreas Antonopoulos' view on the environmental impact of Bitcoin mining?

    Posted: 04 Aug 2019 08:16 PM PDT

    In this age of disinformation, I regard Andreas Antonopoulos as one of the purest sources of truth on Bitcoin. Whenever I have a question about anything related to crypto, I like to hear his perspective on the matter.

    Recently, I've been troubled by what to make of the noticeably prominent narrative that Bitcoin mining exacerbates global warming. Obviously, I'm not naive enough to believe that there are no political agendas involved in spreading this narrative. Nor am I ignorant enough to overlook what the real causes of global warming is. However, I'm not sure whether the environmental impact due to Bitcoin mining is significant enough (or has the potential to be significant enough in the future) to at least take this claim somewhat seriously.

    In this regard, I've been searching for videos of Andreas Antonopoulos addressing this question. I found one, but his answer was unsatisfactorily short. Could someone more informed than me summarize what his view on this issue is? Alternatively, if you have good ideas/sources addressing this topic, please do share!

    Alt season cannot start until...

    Posted: 05 Aug 2019 04:13 AM PDT

    Coins like BTCSV ( Faketoshi's shitcoin) are still in top 10, top 50 or even top 100. If a blockchain has absolutely no use case, suffers re-org after re-org and it's pretty much a centralized shitcoin, but despite all these drawbacks it's still in top 10, we know for sure that we haven't purged nowhere near enough shitcoins, thus the alt season cannot start YET. The faster they burn, the better!

    Cryptocurrency companies have grown heavily over the last three years. Unfortunately, many regulators and financial enterprises don’t see them in the same category as banks or traditional payment processing ventures.
