Delphy Official Announcement: No SMT Smart Contract Vulnerability for Delphy Code


Dear Delphy Community,

Recently, hackers exploited a flaw in SmartMesh’s (SMT) ERC20 smart contract, which resulted in a large number of tokens being received through overflow attacks. Delphy has analyzed this breach and reviewed our code to insure the Delphy project and community will not suffer the same problems. Delphy is making an official announcement to our community that, we have checked our code and can now confirm that there’s no vulnerability to Delphy code.

Delphy DPY token contract:
0x6c2adc2073994fb2ccc5032cc2906fa221e9b391

At present , Delphy has completed the source certification of the token contract on Etherscan. Anyone can view the source code through the following link:
https://etherscan.io/address/0x6c2adc2073994fb2ccc5032cc2906fa221e9b391#code

The vulnerabilities in SMT’s ERC-20 token contract occur in the passing of uint256 variable to a function without the safeguard of checking for making mathematical operations overflow. The will result in the skip of the balance check and allow people can transfer any amount of tokens.

As can be seen in the source code, the contract Delphy Token(DPY) contract inherits directly from the Standard Token contract. In the Standard Token contract, two functions, Transfer and Transfer From, are both involved in mathematical operations.

For these two functions, all calculations will call Math.safeToAdd or Math.safeToSub before execution to ensure that no overflow occurs. Therefore, the smart contract for Delphy DPY tokens will not be affected by this vulnerability.

Thank you for your continued support!

Summary of Delphy Founder Bo Wang’s Interview with ErduoFinance


Leading Chinese blockchain media ErduoFinance which has previously profiled various blockchain celebrities, reached out to Delphy for an exclusive interview with our visionary founder Bo Wang.

Bo Wang possesses practical experience in the application and development of blockchain technology. Bo elaborated on the notable role of predictions markets and blockchain technology and how the two concepts are naturally intertwined with each other. Below is the summary of the interview.

Prediction markets are a natural and easy-to-launch application in the blockchain industry
Blockchain technology brings in a new world of concepts and ideas. We were looking for native applications on the blockchain, with a business model, easy-to-launch and with market demand- prediction markets platform is exactly what we are looking for.

Prediction market are not new - In 1503, people began to predict the succession of the pope. In modern times, prediction markets gradually commercialized. For instance, Intrade prediction markets was a renowned American economic and political prediction markets web platform. The accuracy of their results was even better than that of public opinion surveys. It was often cited by various mainstream media and thus potentially effected the U.S. election.

Traditional prediction markets can do the following: 1. Efficiently collect diverse and dispersed information; 2. Provide an effective and transparent incentive mechanism to obtain relevant realities; 3. Provide an almost real-time information update mechanism so that manipulating the results becomes quite difficult. For example, Consensus Point, whose Chief Scientist is Robin Hanson, the father of prediction markets, accurately predicts markets at 92%.

However, traditional prediction markets are not that perfect and come with various problems, such as the inability of the centralized platform to prove its fairness sans manipulations, the limitations of financial supervision, and the lack of attention. In the 2012 election, Wall Street supported candidate Romney and tried to use $8 million to influence the election results. This was the case with Intrade prediction markets, as they found difficult to prove the fairness and sans manipulations in their predictions.

The existence of the blockchain technology not only deters market manipulation via predictions, but also makes it possible to turn those predictions into transactions. The blockchain technology provides: 1, the data can not be tampered with; 2, token incentive mechanism; 3, decentralization. Decentralization can reflect the wisdom of crowds.

Become the “TaoBao” of Prediction Markets Platform in Blockchain Industry

Augur crowdfunded 20,000 bitcoins and 1.1 million Ethereums since the publication of the White Paper in 2014, worth about $5.5 million, but has not launched the product yet. Delphy’s prototype was released in August last year, and currently is in the second-round internal testing. We are committed at delivering our roadmap, and it is clear that Delphy implements faster than Augur.

Delphy is the first decentralized prediction markets platform in China. The prediction markets community needs strong operations and management, which is exactly the strength of Chinese organisations. Delphy hopes to build a “Taobao platform” for prediction markets based on the blockchain technology. Anybody can “open stores”, which means to create prediction topics on Delphy platform, our platform will first be launched in China and then start working towards our international launch.

Generation of DPY token
Delphy has issued a DPY Token based on Ethereum Smart Contracts and with ERC-20 compliance. When a participant makes a prediction about any future event on the Delphy platform, DPY must be used to purchase the share(s) of an outcome of the event. Those who predict accurately will be rewarded with DPY.

Delphy uses Logarithmic Market Scoring Rule(LMSR) to reflect the market’s evaluation of each event outcome. LMSR provides the greatest liquidity for markets as “the number of shares is unlimited, there is no fixed amount”. Shares can be bought and sold at any time before settlement.

When a user wants to create a prediction market, a loss limit must be determined by the creator to calculate the creator’s potential loss. The higher loss limit is, the greater the loss the creator may suffer, yet the more liquidity the market has, and the less impact participants have on the price when they buy more shares.

Information is real-time. Everyone is free to participate and change their decisions at any time until a credible result is finally released.

The difference between prediction markets and betting
Prediction markets can help people understand the potential outcome of an event, which is both meaningful and profound. For example, the U.S. election prediction result can help assess financial risks; public expectations to house prices can serve as a reference for the government’s macro-control; whether predictions can help farmers gather information and hedge against extreme weather risks. In addition, the incentive value of the prediction markets will be controlled within a certain range, therefore it will not involve a large amount of ​​risk, and the impact on the society will be very limited.

In the past, insurance and securities were once regarded as betting methods, while today people have fully accepted them as economic tools to help fix our practical problems.

Essentially, most of the decentralized applications have a corresponding existence in the centralized world. These are totally two different worlds. They do not cross one another. The experience Delphy would like to share with new entrepreneurs is to seriously consider what the benefits of blockchain technology and how it can solve real problems.

DarpalRating interviewed Delphy founder Bo Wang and Fox Holt, VP Business Development, Delphy


Leading Chinese block-chain projects rating agency, DarpalRating interviewed Delphy Founder Bo Wang and VP of Business Development, Fox Holt. The interview took place in Beijing, China in January 2018 and discussed various topics, namely-


Where did Delphy project come from?
Please refer to another blog “The Story of My relationship with the Blockchain” — summary of Bo Wang’s presentation at Beijing meetup. This blog describes Delphy founder Bo Wang’s journey in the blockchain space.


Introduction of Management team.
Introduction of Factom, which was co-founded by Bo Wang.


Why blockchain plays a vital role in prediction markets?
First, prediction markets existed before the blockchain. In the United States, there were many prediction markets, one of the most famous prediction markets was Intrade. Primarily, Intrade focused on U.S. presidential elections and predictions based on the stock market transactions. In fact, from 2004 to 2012, Intrade’s predictions on the US presidential election were very accurate.


This concept was further accepted by big companies like Google, GE, Hewlett-Packard, etc., that began making decisions through prediction markets. Essentially, it is well accepted that the prediction markets have great value for democratic decision-making, information exploration, and intelligence sharing.


However, centralized implementations have resulted in fundamental shortcoming — a lack of trust amongst the exchanges, traders and government entities. The peer-to-peer blockchain technology can store all trading data on an immutable public blockchain, which demonstrates fair, accurate and tamper-proof prediction results.


Can prediction results really reflect participants’ real thoughts?
A key feature of prediction markets is to provide financial incentives to well-informed participants to share their wisdom regarding the potential outcome of upcoming events. As a result, when their predictions are accurate they are financially rewarded.


What’s the difference between Delphy and other prediction market projects, like Augur, Gnosis, etc?
Undoubtedly, Augur is the first prediction markets project to be built on blockchain. Augur issued REP token, which will provide a fully decentralized Oracle mechanism for prediction results, by asking the REP holder to vote for the results. However, it’s been over 2 years since their ICO and Augur still doesn’t even have a roadmap of when they are going to launch their platform.


Gnosis had its ICO early last year. But the GNO token which was issued is mainly for crowdfunding purpose, rather than to utilize the token. Gnosis has a very big blueprint, including wallet, exchange, etc. Like Augur, they don’t have any solid plan on their product launch.


For Delphy, from the very beginning, we know that our strategy is to launch the product. We plan to have cryptocurrency related prediction markets first, then we may extend to other categories, like sports, entertainment, etc. The initial product launch will be in the China market, then Southeast Asia, lastly English-speaking international markets.


Delphy plans to provide the best user interface and user experience, that will enable many users to take advantage of the wisdom of crowd. At this point, we have over 200,000 pre-registers to our platform. We have commenced the invitation-only internal testing by inviting our engaged community members to help us with bug-finding and UI/UX improvement.


Delphy has established the partnership with imToken, a wallet company with over 500,000 users, Cointime.com (also known as Jinse Finance), THE most influential blockchain based media platforms in China, with over 120,000 UV and over 500,000 PV daily in average. Delphy is also working to build partnership with exchanges. All of the wallet companies, media and exchanges can bring their existing users from their platforms to Delphy’s prediction markets, and on the other hand, more people can take advantage of the wisdom of crowd. It’s worth mentioning that although Delphy’s initial product launch is to China market, Chinese participants’ view on the crypto world is very important to international community. Whilst in the beginning our international community cannot participant in the predictions, but they still can benefit from the results.


What’s the current product update?
Delphy is currently in an invitation-only internal testing stage. We invited community members to make predictions on our platform, and they are providing us with valuable feedback. We also plan to invite blockchain influencers to open sessions on Delphy’s platform, essentially they can initiate their own predictive topics and have their followers participate in the prediction markets. We are also thinking of inviting third-party vertical platforms, that have existing user base, to create prediction markets that their users are most interested to participate.


How do you compare Delphy and Bodhi?
Delphy is the first prediction markets platform on the blockchain in China. Delphy is built on Ethereum, whereas Bodhi is built on the Qtum blockchain. It is well known fact that, Ethereum is more well-developed than Qtum.


Another big difference is that Delphy’s goal is to deliver the roadmap we promised to our community, for which we are working very hard towards our product launch. Additionally, Delphy’s prediction markets platform will be easy to access, fun to participate, provide market incentives and low transaction fees that will guarantee easy of use and motivate users to actively participate in making predictions. We are very confident that we can do a great job!


What’s the difference between prediction markets and betting?
This question has been asked many times. Prediction markets is absolutely not gambling.

Delphy will provide a platform on which anyone can initiate a prediction market at any time. The market is open and transparent. He/she can invite friends to make predictions, share information and benefit from the wisdom of crowd.

In fact, a prediction market is a judgment on probability. We are making judgments all the time in our lives. These judgments are basically based on probability. A lot of times, we don’t even realize that we are actually making judgments based on the probability. However, on the other hand, we can’t call all judgments based on the probability betting.

To make a prediction based on probability is essentially an objective of fact. The whole world needs prediction markets. In order to fully legitimize the prediction markets, there were more than 20 scientists in the United States (including 4 Nobel laureates) who jointly wrote to the US Congress, because prediction markets can help with making correct decision, or take corresponding actions based on the prediction results. Currently, many large companies in the United States are using prediction markets to help gather opinions internally, then make wise decisions that will have a positive impact on ROI (Return on investment).

China is in the process of internationalization, and a lot of Chinese citizens have great access to the outside world. If by using prediction markets, their wisdom could be collected, I believe it will help with the government’s decision-making. Therefore, prediction market itself can bring tremendous value to the whole society.

On the other hand, on Delphy’s platform, we have limitation on the number and amount of users’ transactions. And the buying and selling prices are also placed between 0 and 1, at a relatively low range. All of these will ensure the prediction markets become a mechanism for information discovery and wisdom sharing, rather than being manipulated as a mechanism for betting.


In general, prediction market is a very good information discovery mechanism with social value.

The Story of My Relationship with the Blockchain

— Delphy Founder Bo Wang presented in the“Learn the important aspects of the Blockchain” event on 6 March, 2018

https://medium.com/delphy/the-story-of-my-relationship-with-the-blockchain-71d3df6569ae


Delphy Founder Bo Wang, was invited as a keynote speaker to participate in the “Learn the important aspects of the Blockchain” investment and sharing event, organized by Zero2IPO Group on March 6, 2018. The event was well attended by blockchain investors, traditional finance industry and block-chain enthusiasts, with over 50 attendees.


Bo chose the topic, “The Story of My Relationship with the Blockchain” which described how he initially explored blockchain technologies.

In 2009, Bo stumbled into Bitcoin; however, at that point he wasn’t fully convinced about the concept. In 2013, he met David Johnston, co-founder of Factom who told him that he was a was a true believer in Bitcoin and not only bought Bitcoin at $10, he went all in. To everyone’s surprise by the end of 2013, Bitcoin’s price had soared to over $1,000. After that realization, Bo began researching into blockchain technology and Bitcoin.

In 2013, many Blockchain startups began to emerge such as Bitshares, Ethereum. In fact, Bo was one of the ICO investors for Ethereum project. Now, he actively participated in most Ethereum community events and got introduced to Bo Shen, renowned investor and advisor in Chinese Blockchain industry. Bo shared an interesting story- in order to build a Chinese community Vitalik lived at Bo Shen’s house for several months where he learnt to speak in Mandarin so he could connect and build the community.

Bo’s own experience in investing Ethereum started him thinking about his own ICO project. Together with other co-founders, they decided to create a public chain to store and retrieve data, Factom. At that point, Factom spent a lot of time to learn and explore what’s the best process to conduct an ICO. They chose to destroy all the unsold tokens after the ICO. However, this decision led to the Factom Foundation short of funding to manage and operating the community. Luckily, a new partner joined Factom who provided Foundation with funding assistance. In 2015, with the help of successful marketing initiatives, Factom, as a strong blockchain-based technology company, increased its global presence. The price of FCT, Factom token, skyrocketed from 10 cent at ICO to the highest of $39.

In August, 2016, Bo decided to go back to China and co-found Wanglu Technology. Then he made up his mind that he would develop an application based on blockchain- Delphy, Prediction markets platform!

In August of 2017, Delphy successfully crowd-funded 60,000 Ether and then immediately got DPY, Delphy token, listed on gate.io. Before the team could celebrate their ICO success, Chinese government issued an ICO ban which also impacted Delphy, as we had to return tokens to several Chinese investors.

Bo truly believes in the prediction markets and how the wisdom of crowd will make the world more predictable. He announced that later this month, Delphy will launch its prediction markets mobile application for the China market. The testimony of Delphy’s popularity resonates in the fact that over 200,000 have pre-registers for our application and with all the partnerships, Delphy expects to have around 1,000,000 users after product launch.

After Bo’s presentation, he also answered questions from attendees about blockchain, ICOs, Delphy, etc.


Thank you for your continued support!

Delphy Rebrand Ahead of Predictive Markets App Launch


www.the-blockchain.com/2018/03/29/delphy-rebrand-ahead-of-predictive-markets-app-launch/


Predictive markets platform Delphy said Wednesday it is rebranding ahead of the launch of its mobile app later this year. International advertising agency, Ogilvy was drafted in to redesign Delphy’s logo, positioning and website, while highlighting the entertainment value of its app, which already boasts has over 200,000 pre-registrations.


“We took this opportunity to rethink our messaging across the board,” said Bo Wang, Founder and CEO of Delphy, in the statement. “We’re developing a unique and feature-rich social predictive markets app, and are proud to be ahead of the curve in a rapidly growing industry; our new brand identity illustrates this exciting vision, and conveys to the public exactly what the app is all about.”


Enabling individuals to make and trade predictions on future events, Delphy tests their knowledge of political, financial, and sporting events. Those who correctly anticipate the outcomes of events are rewarded with its /DPY Token, which powers the platform and is available on OKEX.


By channelling the wisdom of the crowd, Delphy believes it can make accurate, data-driven predictions about future events, which eliminates the need for traditional forecasting methods.

The new brand, which Delphy said reflects the benefits and unique features of the app, will be formally unveiled later this year.
The company said its new messaging and visuals will reassert its position in the growing prediction markets industry, presenting a distinct, fun identity, while its whitepaper and social media channels have also been overhauled to describe the new appearance and features of Delphy’s mobile platform.

I am interested in this project as well after reading the available information on page first. Total maximum supply also is very reasonable if all the tokens get sold.

DarpalRating interviewed Delphy founder Bo Wang and Fox Holt, VP Business Development, Delphy

Leading Chinese block-chain projects rating agency, DarpalRating interviewed Delphy Founder Bo Wang and VP of Business Development, Fox Holt. The interview took place in Beijing, China in January 2018 and discussed various topics, namely-

Where did Delphy project come from?
Please refer to another blog “The Story of My relationship with the Blockchain” — summary of Bo Wang’s presentation at Beijing meetup. This blog describes Delphy founder Bo Wang’s journey in the blockchain space.

Introduction of Management team.

Introduction of Factom, which was co-founded by Bo Wang.

Why blockchain plays a vital role in prediction markets?

First, prediction markets existed before the blockchain. In the United States, there were many prediction markets, one of the most famous prediction markets was Intrade. Primarily, Intrade focused on U.S. presidential elections and predictions based on the stock market transactions. In fact, from 2004 to 2012, Intrade’s predictions on the US presidential election were very accurate.

This concept was further accepted by big companies like Google, GE, Hewlett-Packard, etc., that began making decisions through prediction markets. Essentially, it is well accepted that the prediction markets have great value for democratic decision-making, information exploration, and intelligence sharing.

However, centralized implementations have resulted in fundamental shortcoming — a lack of trust amongst the exchanges, traders and government entities. The peer-to-peer blockchain technology can store all trading data on an immutable public blockchain, which demonstrates fair, accurate and tamper-proof prediction results.

Can prediction results really reflect participants’ real thoughts?

A key feature of prediction markets is to provide financial incentives to well-informed participants to share their wisdom regarding the potential outcome of upcoming events. As a result, when their predictions are accurate they are financially rewarded.

What’s the difference between Delphy and other prediction market projects, like Augur, Gnosis, etc?

Undoubtedly, Augur is the first prediction markets project to be built on blockchain. Augur issued REP token, which will provide a fully decentralized Oracle mechanism for prediction results, by asking the REP holder to vote for the results. However, it’s been over 2 years since their ICO and Augur still doesn’t even have a roadmap of when they are going to launch their platform.

Gnosis had its ICO early last year. But the GNO token which was issued is mainly for crowdfunding purpose, rather than to utilize the token. Gnosis has a very big blueprint, including wallet, exchange, etc. Like Augur, they don’t have any solid plan on their product launch.

For Delphy, from the very beginning, we know that our strategy is to launch the product. We plan to have cryptocurrency related prediction markets first, then we may extend to other categories, like sports, entertainment, etc. The initial product launch will be in the China market, then Southeast Asia, lastly English-speaking international markets.

Delphy plans to provide the best user interface and user experience, that will enable many users to take advantage of the wisdom of crowd. At this point, we have over 200,000 pre-registers to our platform. We have commenced the invitation-only internal testing by inviting our engaged community members to help us with bug-finding and UI/UX improvement.

Delphy has established the partnership with imToken, a wallet company with over 500,000 users, Cointime.com (also known as Jinse Finance), THE most influential blockchain based media platforms in China, with over 120,000 UV and over 500,000 PV daily in average. Delphy is also working to build partnership with exchanges. All of the wallet companies, media and exchanges can bring their existing users from their platforms to Delphy’s prediction markets, and on the other hand, more people can take advantage of the wisdom of crowd. It’s worth mentioning that although Delphy’s initial product launch is to China market, Chinese participants’ view on the crypto world is very important to international community. Whilst in the beginning our international community cannot participant in the predictions, but they still can benefit from the results.

What’s the current product update?
Delphy is currently in an invitation-only internal testing stage. We invited community members to make predictions on our platform, and they are providing us with valuable feedback. We also plan to invite blockchain influencers to open sessions on Delphy’s platform, essentially they can initiate their own predictive topics and have their followers participate in the prediction markets. We are also thinking of inviting third-party vertical platforms, that have existing user base, to create prediction markets that their users are most interested to participate.

How do you compare Delphy and Bodhi?
Delphy is the first prediction markets platform on the blockchain in China. Delphy is built on Ethereum, whereas Bodhi is built on the Qtum blockchain. It is well known fact that, Ethereum is more well-developed than Qtum.

Another big difference is that Delphy’s goal is to deliver the roadmap we promised to our community, for which we are working very hard towards our product launch. Additionally, Delphy’s prediction markets platform will be easy to access, fun to participate, provide market incentives and low transaction fees that will guarantee easy of use and motivate users to actively participate in making predictions. We are very confident that we can do a great job!

What’s the difference between prediction markets and betting?

This question has been asked many times. Prediction markets is absolutely not gambling.

Delphy will provide a platform on which anyone can initiate a prediction market at any time. The market is open and transparent. He/she can invite friends to make predictions, share information and benefit from the wisdom of crowd.

In fact, a prediction market is a judgment on probability. We are making judgments all the time in our lives. These judgments are basically based on probability. A lot of times, we don’t even realize that we are actually making judgments based on the probability. However, on the other hand, we can’t call all judgments based on the probability betting.

To make a prediction based on probability is essentially an objective of fact. The whole world needs prediction markets. In order to fully legitimize the prediction markets, there were more than 20 scientists in the United States (including 4 Nobel laureates) who jointly wrote to the US Congress, because prediction markets can help with making correct decision, or take corresponding actions based on the prediction results. Currently, many large companies in the United States are using prediction markets to help gather opinions internally, then make wise decisions that will have a positive impact on ROI (Return on investment).

China is in the process of internationalization, and a lot of Chinese citizens have great access to the outside world. If by using prediction markets, their wisdom could be collected, I believe it will help with the government’s decision-making. Therefore, prediction market itself can bring tremendous value to the whole society.

On the other hand, on Delphy’s platform, we have limitation on the number and amount of users’ transactions. And the buying and selling prices are also placed between 0 and 1, at a relatively low range. All of these will ensure the prediction markets become a mechanism for information discovery and wisdom sharing, rather than being manipulated as a mechanism for betting.

In general, prediction market is a very good information discovery mechanism with social value.
