That should be interesting. I'll put it on in the background.

Just discovered this - Cryptopreneurs Radio has been heavily involved in OneCoin since October. They are currently having a OneCoin-hour show because of the scam headlines.

Agreed but, lets take that a step or two further shall we? It's a shame we are still seeing a lot of questionable activities going on in the financial industry. I think we are pretty much following the curve in that regard. It takes a long time, longer than crypto has been in existence to shake out the obvious crooks and scams. And, even having done that, the less obvious and smarter schemes will always remain just under the radar. And this is something we have always lived with and, I fear, will always live with. Human nature is sometimes our worst enemy but, it can also be our best friend. Depends on what side your on...

It is a shame that we are still seeing a lot of questionable activities going on in our industry.

They should rename it "MadoffCoin" 

This is historic and a great use case. "Smartmatic will use a private blockchain" In this case, that is the most appropriate arrangement. It is for a specific group "Registered members of the Republican party in Utah" for a specific function "cast a vote". And best of all, one can vote from anywhere worldwide. The owner of one private key owns one vote. Once it is spent, confirmed, and recorded on the ledger, it is verifiable but can not be changed and manipulated or tampered. I can see how this could gain mass acceptance in the not so distance future. It will be great for the industry in terms of generating awareness.

Blockchain Tech Enables Utah Republicans to Vote for Candidate

https://www.cryptocoinsnews.com/blockchain-tech-enables-utah-republicans-vote-candidate/

Registered members of the Republican party in Utah will be able to nominate a candidate for the United States Presidency by placing a vote without having to visit polling stations by submitting them via the internet at the party’s website. The votes will be submitted and secured on a blockchain.

For the first time ever in the United States, a state party has enabled voting via the internet. Members of the Utah Republican party will be able to cast their ballot to vote today for this year’s Republican presidential nominee by registering online at the party’s website.

The online voting infrastructure is secured and powered by Smartmatic, a British firm with experience in online voting solutions around the world.

Smartmatic will use a private blockchain along with end-to-end encryption, enabling registered Republicans in Utah to cast their vote online.

Once registered, users will each obtain a unique cryptographic key that they will need to enter online while casting a vote. Voters will also be able to learn about the candidates and change their ballot before submitting their vote. Once submitted however, the recorded vote is permanent and cannot be changed.

Mike Summers, program manager at Smartmatic and a key developer of its blockchain-based voting technology contends online voting is here to stay for the convenience that it offers and party members young and old are signing up in numbers. Indeed, a Wired report contends that 59,000 Utah Republicans have already registered online for casting their vote onto the blockchain.

Furthermore, Summers adds that the online voting system is secured against vote tampering, due to the implementation of the firm’s cryptographically secure blockchain.

Online voting also brings significant advantages over offline votes submitted toward a physical ballot, even more-so in a state like Utah. A significant majority of the state’s residents are members of the Church of Latter Day Saints, commonly known as Mormons. Mormons often spend several years abroad for missionary work and up till now, had to depend on postal voting which are fundamentally unreliable.

Missionaries, travelers, U.S. military service personnel and citizens abroad the country have had to rely on ballots sent over the mail. With online voting solutions that see votes registered and secured on a blockchain, the democratic voting process just got simpler.

This article underlines the importance of reaching out to lawmakers and regulators with educational material that can help inform them on the benefits of cryptocurrency. That way mutually beneficial legislation can be passed to protect the jurisdiction, while still allowing the industry to flourish. At this point the potential benefits of crypto far outweigh the risks, but thanks to mainstream media misinformation, it's highly unlikely that governing bodies are fully aware of this.

Interesting,

That hashrate puts us pretty low on the profitability scale, we'll have to keep an eye on it.

Our network currently has a hashrate that is 1/4 of the Litecoin network's! It's been around or over 200 GH/s for the past 6 hours!

I recommend reading some of the claims here:

I've never heard of them Is OneCoin a kind of "company" or is it an actual digital coin? I wasn't able to get a sense of exactly what they are luring people into from the article.

Though I haven't spent much time researching their model, I steer far away from any MLM type schemes that rely on tiered recruitment.

Thanks TeeGee! We will be making every effort to have it published and sold across the globe, eventually translated into many languages, and it will certainly help if you can contact local chains. There is a lot of preparation work going on right now, but will have more details as we get closer to publishing.

That is excellent, we could use a few more of your articles.

The membership site is coming together and we are working to launch it and the kickstarter shortly. This will help us to start getting word out prior to the actual launch of the book. Exciting times just ahead, stay tuned.

That is very much appreciated. Thank you very much, Chase.

The Kickstarter campaign is a great opportunity for us to promote pre-sale of the book. Anyone who is in the position to support us will be greatly appreciated. However, do not feel obligated though. We are thinking of offering a limited number of E-books over a limited time to be given away free for those who can not afford it. We will be posting details here, should we decide to do that. Additionally, anyone who can give the book an objective review will be very much appreciated.

This book means a lot to me but most importantly it could be invaluable to a lot of business owners and those who are contemplating in starting a new business. I am challenged to help reduce the high rate of business failures currently in excess of 60% of startups in the first five years. There are many reasons for the high rate of failures. It must start with you the owner, the leader, and the coach. Among others, creating a favorable culture for the benefits of everyone is a great starting point. Your company can enjoy greater inspiration at every level when mutual dependence, mutual cooperation, and mutual benefits are emphasized by everyone at all levels.

Quote of the day, "When you can inspire those who follow you to not only appreciate great leadership skills but also strive to develop them in themselves, you will find that they become even better followers too."

This book is a key foundation block of our ecosystem. It is a pathway of DNotes towards mass acceptance on a global scale. Those who read the book carefully will come to understand that everything DNotes has been doing is reflected in the book. It is about coming up with a very long term vision, develop a whole series of winning strategies, and execute them flawlessly over a period of time. It is about developing and launching a whole series of highly scalable building blocks that are all strategically linked. DNotes is a very large scale work in progress project that is not easy to understand when one just look only one or two things like DNotes the currency (that is just 1 among 1000 and nothing special by itself now or CryptoMoms for the matter) For now that is a correct assessment.

DNotes goes way beyond that. As a system, each piece is like a gear or a component. When we completed building all the parts and assembled them into a system - it becomes a very powerful machine.

In essence, that is what we have been doing. Hope you will enjoy reading the book. It is uniquely different and refreshing. There may not be another business book like it. If I am wrong, let me know. I am always looking forward to read more good books.
 

I try to stay neutral in my opinion of other coins, but this one has always looked sketchy. They have been on the radar of numerous authorities, but somehow still operating. Do they have to collapse with everyone's money, before something is finally done?


OneCoin Ponzi Scheme Adjusts Tactics To Recruit More Members

Great information being posted on the forum lately!

The book is shaping up nicely it appears. I'd like to order at least 5 - 10. I'll give a copy or two for book chains to analyse, or hopefully we can find a way to sell it over here... Actually, I might just distribute it directly and market it directly if we aren't able to get it stocked on bookshelves in little ol' New Zealand. I don't know how the distribution networks work for book store chains, but hey, it could keep the margins for the DNotes company much higher - i.e. Payment made to DNotes website, and I distribute by post nationally. I'll support the book however I can.

Kickstarter page, and social media presence will be the next step. Also got a couple ideas in the works for DCEbrief articles (to follow) - namely a rework of a letter I wrote about how crypto, and blockchain could affect legal professions like law.

It would make for great information for legal firms to see what the future may look like, and get on board with blockchain early.

I'd also like to write more about "currency", what it is, and why it is better than "barter" - to revisit in plain English some monetary theory, and why cryptocurrencies are better than gold. As an example, many people advocate gold as a reserve currency because it's "function as money" increases the value of gold significantly above its intrinsic value.  When people "consume" gold as jewellery or any other personal use, gold is taken out of the "money market", which further lifts the price of gold. People will of course never do this, if the "price" of gold exceeds that of its intrinsic value (as jewellery, or any other use). Consider golds potential ability to act as a "means of exchange" to add a surplus value to its price.

By this logic, that surplus is what gives crypto-currencies its value - or fiat currency. It's mean of exchange. Crypto does this more efficiently than fiat money does - which is not lost on anybody here. Of course, throw in DNotes plan to give each unit of currency an ownership stake in a profit-generating company, you have a unit of currency that both has intrinsic value from acting as a medium of exchange, and as a ownership claim against a company.

Genius.

Be in touch.

As always, appreciate your support Chase!
