    I'm publicly posting my Ethereum private key (holding 1 Ether) to demonstrate Blockd's security. Private key and information within.

    Posted: 03 Jan 2020 04:19 AM PST

    First to send away my 1 Ether gets to keep it.

    The address is: 0xa5653e88D9c352387deDdC79bcf99f0ada62e9c6

    The private key is: ca9a3a3d4026e6228713e683a9c45ef65a538b2f9336813bd597f5effa38668d

    The Etherscan link is: https://etherscan.io/address/0xa5653e88D9c352387deDdC79bcf99f0ada62e9c6

    The safety wallet that should receive the funds is: 0x25eE1E352892Bc4f036F25441E6CEE84f5E06729

    I will be posting the address that the Ether was originally sent to, please post here if it was you! It would really help in proving that this was not rigged.

    You can sign-up for Blockd.co free until February 1st, 2020 to try it out.

    EDIT: I'm transferring the Ether out of the safety account (it hasn't somehow been stolen from there).

    ElastOS is officially live for download on the Google Play App Store! This is Kind of a Big Deal.

    Posted: 03 Jan 2020 09:05 AM PST

    The Elastos Foundation is proud to announce the launch of elastOS, the official platform for browsing the Elastos ecosystem of dApps. With this product launch, Elastos becomes the first blockchain project to deliver a fully integrated runtime ecosystem that creates a single place for managing tokens, creating and managing W3C-compliant decentralized identities, running Ethereum based smart contracts and transporting network data in a decentralized way, all in one native application designed for dApps. elastOS is now available to download for free on the Google Play app store.

    With a fully autonomous hybrid consensus already in place and Cyber Republic Council Elections live, elastOS allows users to access dApps as seamlessly as developers can build them. Currently, elastOS provides a number of powerful design elements and brings together the Elastos ecosystem into a single space for the first time.

    Most prominently, elastOS supports existing functions in the Elastos ecosystem, with a DPoS voting dApp and a blockchain explorer web application housed within a dApp. The platform also provides an integrated Wallet dApp as a core feature that is compatible with all aspects of the Elastos infrastructure. The Wallet allows users to send and receive payments through the ELA main chain, DID Sidechain, and allows third party applications to easily integrate with and request authorization for payments. elastOS also contains demos for both Elastos Carrier and the DID Sidechain to inform users about key features and to allow developers to use these technologies to build their own decentralized applications.

    The DID Sidechain's initial version will be capable of issuing W3C-compliant DIDs and DID-related credentials that can be published to and retrieved from the DID Sidechain for integration with sign-in functions from third party dApps - including native applications stationed outside elastOS. The Elastos DID Sidechain is one of the first in a group of truly decentralized implementations of the W3C DID Specifications and offers potential for large-scale adoption at the enterprise level.

    In order to prepare for future development, elastOS comes equipped with a dApp store application and dApp store server, a QR Code dApp, and developer-friendly tools that allow third party developers to create, debug, sign, and publish dApps directly onto elastOS. Lastly, thorough UI/UX work has produced brand new launcher icons and background design to imbue elastOS with a fresh, modern look.

    In order to prioritize a prompt launch of elastOS, the application is currently available only for Android, while development for iOS remains in progress.

    Base guides for elastOS as well as documentation for plugins API can be found on Elastos' developer website, [https://developer.elastos.org].

    As the home of the Modern Internet, the development and modification of elastOS will be an ongoing project, as the Elastos Foundation continues to expand existing functions, augment new features, and add support for up and coming dApps and other technologies. Thus, while elastOS' end goal is to be not only a standalone browser, but an entirely decentralized mobile operating system all within an app, its initial state is a native app that houses several Ionic-based dApps within it.

    With this significant milestone, the Elastos Foundation and its entire ecosystem of decentralized global teams extends its gratitude to the community for their continued support as we enter an exciting new phase of development.

    1.0.0 release note: https://github.com/elastos/Elastos.Trinity/wiki/Release-1.0.0

    EDIT: Playstore Link: https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=org.elastos.trinity.runtime&hl=en_US

    Does anyone know of any apps that allow you to track portfolio of a large number of coins by simply entering their public addresses?

    Posted: 03 Jan 2020 08:26 PM PST

    Looking for an app, ideally for iOS/iPhone where I can enter the public address for a cryptocurrency and be able to see all balances associated to that address, would also like it to support as many coins/tokens as possible.

    Is there anything out there like this that already exists?

    Got AirDropped a bunch of Kicktokens. How do i get rid of them?

    Posted: 03 Jan 2020 08:38 AM PST

    Searching the internet has lead me to believe that I HAVE to KYC through their own exchange. I absolutely do not want to do that. Is there any other way to get rid of them? Or am I stuck with them forever now?

    Wish there was a way to refuse Airdrops.
