A New Era of Ownership

  Months ago, the mainstream media wrote articles about how crypto was dead and that there would never be another bull run. Wild predictions of Bitcoin going to zero sought to instill fear in people so they would turn away from the markets and invest in more traditional assets. Yet, despite the doomsday prophecies, Bitcoin has surged to new heights, defying expectations even before the halving takes place. The media has quickly forgotten its failed predictions and instead turned its attention to the NFT market, echoing similar skepticism. Several articles

Why is it worth following the trends in the gambling industry?

Gambling is not really a new thing, but it has changed a lot over the years. Today, gambling is largely done online, which has also had a great impact on the entire industry. The industry today has the same trends just like any other industry. But why are these trends also interesting to those who do not necessarily have anything to do with the gambling industry? There are of course many different reasons for this, as you will soon discover. So let's find out why following these trends can be

Analyzing Token Sale Models

Note: I mention the names of various projects below only to compare and contrast their token sale mechanisms; this should NOT be taken as an endorsement or criticism of any specific project as a whole.

A Note On Charity Through Marginal Price Discrimination

Vitalik Buterin via the Vitalik Buterin Blog Updated 2018-07-28. See end note. The following is an interesting idea that I had two years ago that I personally believe has promise and could be easily implemented in the context of a blockchain ecosystem, though if desired it could certainly also be implemented with more traditional technologies (blockchains would help get the scheme network effects by putting the core logic on a more neutral platform). Suppose that you are a restaurant selling sandwiches, and you ordinarily sell sandwiches for $7.50. Why did

My Life As A Science Experiment ; Continues

  A year ago Every=Ten of Ten doctors told me with confidence that I would Not get better and could not survive with Kidney function of 4.1% and Creatinine of 12.32. Immediate dialysis leading to a hopeful transplant or; death. I rejected every doctors advice and had this idea that for as long as I can I would reverse engineer manually all the vital functions that kidneys influence. It's 13 months later and I function well using frequent blood tests to tweak my protocol. It's a 24/7 job with 20+

Paribus. Trust Less.

One month ago, Jerome Powell, head of the Federal Reserve in the US, announced that the banking system was sound and robust despite the collapse of several large banks. After raising rates a further 0.25%, he said, “We’re committed to learning the lessons from this episode and to work to prevent events like this from happening again.” As we prepare for another potential 0.25% rate hike on May 3rd, another major bank in the US, First Republic Bank, has collapsed. Its collapse is part of a larger trend of consolidation

Beyond the Dollar

The global economy is at a crossroads with the US dollar’s future as the world reserve currency facing fresh challenges. For decades, the stability and dominance of the dollar have given the United States significant advantages in global trade, investment, and geopolitical influence. However, as emerging economies like China and India rise in prominence, their currencies are gaining traction in international transactions, challenging the dollar’s hegemony. China, in particular, has been busy over the past few months, actively promoting the Yuan and seeking to challenge US dominance in the global
