    On November 29, 2018, the Shenzhen Blockchain Industry Alliance was established

    • China Quality Certification Center Shenzhen Branch (responsible for product standards and quality standards sold on the Chinese market)

    END

    ​

    It might be time to filter out the noise in crypto (particularly the tribalism and vulture culture) and do some research into these entities that are literally terraforming the entire blockchain landscape in the Silicon Valley of China. We must remember that no single cryptocurrency will be 'the coin' of China, and any notion that suggests so is simply delusional. We must also remember that the consultants involved with setting reference architecture of blockchain standards must be taken seriously - the cryptos that want to operate in China will no doubt be adhering to policies and standards set out by these consultants.

    Anyone using Monolith.xyz (TokenCard) already?

    Posted: 19 Nov 2019 01:30 AM PST

    I was waiting long time for this one and seems they have finally released their android app and card orders quietly ( i didn't get email about it or whatever).

    They are great because they let you spend your tokens directly via a visa card which is a first even if the top up fee is high (1%).

    However, is anyone using them already and do they work as expected?

    r/WaltonChain censors post asking "when token swap" from their sub

    Posted: 18 Nov 2019 05:03 AM PST

    Most of the token holders are furious with what little the team has been communication. On every channel there are tons of reports of node holders facing bugs, errors, etc

    And most non node holders have no clue when the token swap will be held, or if big exchanges like Binance will support the token swap.

    Any question regarding this gets censored

    Absolute joke of a project. Zero transparency, and even holders asking basic questions are censored.

    https://np.reddit.com/r/waltonchain/comments/dxrxlj/when_is_the_mainnet_swap_if_ever/

    FYI: they have even censored 3 comments, which are as below:

    1. "If it walks like a duck..."

    and

    1. Its beyond sad at this point. Just zero communication or clarity, even over something this simple...

    3rd comment was censored so fast.

    Thoughts on crypto savings accounts?

    Posted: 18 Nov 2019 07:03 PM PST

    Hi folks, what are your thoughts on using crypto as a savings account? With DeFi lending protocols (Compound, Fulcrum, etc.) you can 5-6% APR which is much higher than your neighbourhood bank account (<2%.) Could this lead to mainstream adoption?

    For example: https://openfinancetokens.com
