Topic: [ANN] NIX - Next gen privacy currency & multi-layered interoperability platform - page 15. (Read 6052 times)

Crypto.IQ is pleased to announce that Charlie Shrem has agreed to join the NIX advisory board along with becoming a NIX contributor.


Charlie has long believed that privacy and decentralization are not just themes in cryptocurrency. They are the reason it exists. They are among the critical characteristics that make this a breakthrough technology — one that is changing the world.

That’s why he feels so strongly about NIX. It combines these two important features into one very powerful platform that we at Crypto.IQ believe has enormous potential to deliver the “killer app” that will take crypto mainstream.

What Charlie likes even more is the way the NIX team has conducted itself from the project’s inception to the present.

“Decentralized privacy networks are the future of crypto,” Charlie said. “I’m excited to be working with a grassroots project that built itself up without fundraising.”

Rather than fundraising with an ICO, NIX created a faucet that delivers newly minted NIX to users. And since its inception, NIX has been trading on exchanges, increasing its social media efforts, and following its well-thought-out roadmap — all of this during the longest bear market in crypto history.

The vision of the NIX team is to fix the flaws of traditional privacy coins by creating a multi-layer platform that encompasses protocol consensus, utilization features, inter-communication systems and a foundation for decentralized applications to be built on top of NIX.

Already, they have achieved much within those layers, but there is more yet to come.

Partnerships with Blocknet, Chainzilla, Whopper, and Swirl demonstrate that NIX is expanding its reach while staying under the radar of the crypto mainstream. The NIX project, begun last May, has already delivered streamlined privacy solutions like the Ghost Vault and Commitment Key Packs Scheme to allow for zerocoin address-less private transactions.

What makes NIX even more of a standout is the fact that it is supported by the very popular Nano S and Ledger Blue hardware wallets. This is an enviable position for NIX to be in, considering how few coins these wallets support.

As well, NIX has promoted an innovative leasing consensus that allows peers to have their coins staked by third parties without compromising coin ownership. These features and the creation of the unique and fair ghostnodes reward distribution system — along with the delivery of mobile wallets that will soon integrate core wallet functionalities — make NIX the project to watch in the privacy coin space.

Charlie believes that NIX will see growing popularity as investors in the crypto market and those who desire a strongly decentralized and private coin watch the NIX team continue to build this promising project.

The NIX Platform team could also apply for beeing listen on EXODUS. Charlie Shrem knows probably some people there:

Let's Talk Bitcoin! could be also a great podcast where Jackieboy, Shrem or Curtis could talk about NIX Platform.

Let's Talk Bitcoin! #387 POW, POS and Self Fulfilling Counter Prophecies

ANDREAS M. ANTONOPOULOS:

"The problem with proof of work as a system is that it's so poorly understood and it's very difficult to see what benefits it offers.... Immutability and resistance against state level colluding actors are benefits you don't really see until somebody tries to attack them. The fact that they don't attack them, in bitcoin, is not something you can celebrate because it's like proving a negative.

Another way to put it is that no one really pays attention to a surgeon until their patients start dying. It's very difficult to say 'look at how good I am because none of my patients have died lately', but it's very easy to point to the surgeon famous for performing an operation with the 300% mortality rate. He did an amputation in 25 seconds, during which he managed to also amputate some of the fingers of one of his surgery assistants... And it was such a horrific scene that one of the audience members died from shock. Then the patient and the assistant died from sepsis days later, making it the only surgery with 300% mortality rate...

Imo NIX Platform project is much more than exploding prices.

Marketing idea: Sometimes I see on Twitter comments of team members below some posts of potential partners like big community/social websites and exchanges. That's imo not in any case the best way to go to make them aware of NIX. Twitter can be a good medium to get in contact with people but not for getting in contact to make serious business inquiries. It can give the impression of lack of seriousness, laziness and lack of commitment.
Another point is that you rarely get in contact with the right people especially when you try to get in contact with bigger companies. Usually you have contact with the social media content manager and sometimes they reply but don't understand what you do and what value you could add to the company. Imo it is a much better approch to try to understand who are the right persons to get in touch. After having a personal contact with a person that matters in your case you can send them a pitch deck.

I can't be sure, of course. But my experience with the NIX team is that they try to add value to this project and not hype anything. They add only persons to the team that give real value to their project. No hype and fake. So I guess that they have discussed with CS all details of their collaboration.

And I have to admit that I like also Charlie Shrem. This man has shown some balls in the past. Balls that many don't have. He has gone to jail and came out not as a broken man. So he has my deepest repect. I would be glad to meet him some day.

It's ok if you can't imagine that that is a possibility and maybe you are right, but just getting the face onto the website of a popular person turned out to be worth the money in the past. I hope those times are over and everyone involved actually has to deliver something.

Unfortunately many project just only sees bitcointalk as dumping ground for their project, once they have succeeded in creating that Ann page and make few people aware of the project, they abandoned the page and neglect any further questions about the project, if discord is such a place to create awareness while bother coming to this community? Do your announcement on discord

Marketing idea: Don't ignore questions on Bitcointalk that you get from interested people. If you can't give an answer to that question at least let the person know that you can't comment on that topic. Don't underestimate the passion and interest that some people have in bringing forward this project although they are not team members.

Marketing idea: Be more active on other channels like Bitcointalk. On Discord the NIX team is probably the most active. Many ideas and informations are shared there. But many people don't want to join Discord and many don't even know about NIX. By being more active and by sharing informations from Discord on other channels you can reach much more people.

Zoin rebranded to Noir , all info is/was on discord. Don't no about team right now, I sold all my Zoin/Noir after swap. But all this has nothing to do anymore with NIX.

Hello!

Could anyone explain what happend to Zoin, Nix and Noir? I don´t understand what has happend.
I have read the Zoin Thread and understand nothing. 

My Zoin are at Cryptopia and my NIX are in my own Wallet. Is only noir a scam? Or is Zoin, too?
Who are a real Team Member?


Thanks in advance.

371 nodes are now online. Can NIX reach 400 nodes in a few months?

Of course it is difficult. I can only assume that Charlie will have a more active role as advisor of NIX Platform. Honestly I can not imagine that the NIX team hired him for having his face on the website. Since the begining every decision the team made was in favor of this project. When someone joins the team this person needs to add value for the project and in case of Charlie I guess it will be beyond showing his face on the website. Fingers crossed.

Maybe Mario can tell us more about Charlie's role?

maybe, they are looking for the right solutions. and probably still doubt their effectiveness. for today it is a normal phenomenon.

It is a difficult judgment call when it comes to people and their actual impact on a project's success. Sometimes they are just some "advisor", get paid for it and don't contribute anything.

So what can we expect in the coming months (my speculations)?:

Marketing:
- Charlie Shrem and Curtis Green will be guests in some crypto podcasts
- TV Crypto documentation 'On Demand' hosted by Rob Lowe will be aired
- Other Crypto projects will start to mention NIX Platform

Development:
- DEX Manager beta release implemented with Blocknet
- Presentation of a new dApp that is already being developed (according to Jackieboy in the Discord channel)
- Lpos for Ledger
- Decentralized Off-Chain Governance
- Ghost Protocol integration into mobile wallets
- LPoS integration into mobile wallets
- Ghostnode integration into mobile wallets

Feel free to add...

Jackieboy is testing lpos contracts on Electrum for Ledger and Trezor and it should be ready sometime in the near future. Thats what he wrote on Discord two days ago.

This is nice! good job. When LPOS for ledger?

NIX holding when next wave
