What a dump. I think we should go up from now.

What burning?

I think i realised the one of the biggest benefits ICP has over all Blockchains...
The way ICP Blockchain is designed, it is the cheapest smart contracts platform of all.

Cost of 1GB of smart contract data...

Internet Computer:
New internet-scale blockchain
$5/GB/year

This is huge, imagine a DEX being built on ICP...even 1000s of DEXs all running at the same time..
Anything that requires millions, billions, trillions of smart contract txs..will prob use ICP due to its smart contract cost design system.

<---Buying
Perfect time to buy, so much cheap good coin..sales wont last long 

---

So many sitting in stablecoins...so many waiting, will have less coins when it all shoots back up...dont be one of the so many.

---

This is whats happening...


B3 coins are the future, they got the use cases...
The Blockchains USDC and VISA will use , will still be used, the plan has not changed.
Banks will still be taking part in hosting nodes and staking...

What we are seeing effects POW coins...China fud , Telsa not using btc, has nothing to do with Algo, Sol , this is why they holding so strong.

I got FOMO lol, love this ... remember nothing has changed, accumulate, hodl n stake.

The Internet Computer will eventually run billions of canisters at scale. A big advantage of the Internet Computer's novel consensus protocol compared to traditional blockchains is its fast asynchronous finalization approach — finality happens in less than 1 second

HOT dumped and I endured that 
Was the burning started?
I cant wait for it to pump.

“Tesla has suspended vehicle purchases using Bitcoin. We are concerned about rapidly increasing use of fossil fuels for Bitcoin mining and transactions, especially coal, which has the worst emissions of any fuel”, the electric car company CEO tweeted.

“Cryptocurrency is a good idea on many levels and we believe it has a promising future, but this cannot come at a great cost to the environment.

“Tesla will not be selling any Bitcoin and we intend to use it for transactions as soon as mining transitions to more sustainable energy. We are also looking at other cryptocurrencies that use <1% of Bitcoin’s energy/transaction.”



LOL
Elon just realised what Steam,MS and many others did back in 2013...BTC is useless for payments and bad for the environment...it doesn't scale either.

All the Blockchains spoken about here on this thread are the next gen tech and environmentally friendly these are the coins that will be used as currency.


Like i said many times, keep accumulating and staking, we are ahead of the pack.

Dump POW
Pump POS

Im discovering more and more things ICP can do but...can it run Crysis? 

---

What Tesla did with btc is send part of a message to mainstream media and noobs...btc and pow coins are bad for the environment but crypto is useful.
The second part of the message will be pos coins are the future and these are the coins Tesla will work with...


Remember Curv ALGO partnership, Curv Paypal takeover, Paypal is Tesla, Algo is Carbon-Negative...

A few months back...


https://cryptheory.org/paypal-acquires-crypto-security-firm-curv-for-nearly-200m/

PayPal has been tight-lipped about just which type of blockchain technology it plans to use to build this infrastructure.
Fernandez da Ponte did say that any system it adopts will have to be capable of “high throughput”
in the form of thousands of transactions per second, and noted that the company has looked at blockchains like
Ethereum, Stellar, Algorand and Solana—but emphasized that it is not endorsing any of them for now.


https://twitter.com/elonmusk/status/1349977642708168704
The thing we call money is just an information system for labor allocation.

What actually matters is making goods & providing services.

We should look at currencies from an information theory standpoint.

Whichever has least error & latency will win.

Something every ETH hodler, Dev and user should have a look at....a probably everyone else too...

https://medium.com/dfinity/how-ethereum-could-be-supercharged-by-the-internet-computer-network-afc513bf15e1

The Internet Computer works differently than traditional blockchains, and this enables Ethereum developers to incorporate its capabilities into their dapps with relative ease. For example, whereas Ethereum requires users to submit some amount of ETH with every transaction to pay for the gas that fuels the computation resulting from smart contract code being invoked, on the Internet Computer canisters (a form of smart contracts) are pre-charged with “cycles” (the equivalent of gas) and pay for computation themselves.

and much more...
What may surprise you, is that there is work ongoing at the DFINITY Foundation involving advanced cryptography that will allow canister code running on the Internet Computer to securely create and sign Ethereum and Bitcoin transactions.


Each canister can maintain up to 4GB of memory pages.
 But if that is insufficient, a system can be composed of any number of interacting canisters, such that there is no upper bound on the total quantity of data that they can maintain.

<--- Buying ICP....if it drops more buy more 

---

Im not worried about the new ICP that come into circ every month.
The 10% from airdrops/investors etc for the next 12 months is actually a good thing.

Most prob dont know that AVAX has a similar distribution.
The amazing thing to see was as more AVAX came onto the market from investors, the higher the price went..adding liquidity is a good thing.
AVAX went from $2 to over $50 as supply increased.
and this was not a one off event..check Solana..Jan 2021 all SOLs were released everyone expected a huge crash...it went from $4 before the release to $1 then within a few months almost $50 after all SOLs were put out.

ICP will do something similar to AVAX & SOL.

What Is Algorand? Is It A Good Investment?

Arf, a VISA Innovation Program company, is a global payment network enabling instant and fully compliant cross-border payments for financial institutions and corporates.

https://www.circle.com/blog/arf-compliant-and-instant-cross-border-payment-network-for-financial-institutions

Team Circle
April 27, 2021
In our opinion, what makes Arf possible today is also the future of banking and payments, namely, financial institutions like Circle, that carry a crypto custody and exchange license in their own local jurisdictions in addition to their traditional financial licences.
These institutions can control funds in the form of both fiat and cryptocurrencies and offer instant and seamless exchange between the two.
This is also the key differentiating factor of Arf’s Network as it allows the funds to be moved cross-border via numerous public blockchains such as Ethereum, Algorand, Solana or Stellar 24/7 in a few seconds. Rapidly redeemable, transparently audited, 1:1 fiat pegged stablecoins like USDC, that carry high liquidity across multiple geographies complement Arf Network by being the base settlement and cross-border transfer currency.

Want a heart attack? Put the three words "Rumor, BlackRock, and Algorand" in same sentence


Dry-Response-8577

Wow…….

What the article says English translation:

Blackrock, the most important and richest investment company in the world, could join ALGO, the reference cryptocurrency of the Algorand protocol, a project we have talked about several times on the pages of Criptovaluta.it.

This is the rumor that circulates, in a rather insistent way, among the insiders. For an investment about which very little is still known, both in terms of quantity and quality of the investment, because rumors continue to chase each other that even Blackrock would like to be the main investor in the project.

Rumor Blackrock Algorand A rumor that for the moment cannot be confirmed and on which we will keep you updated during the next few days, when the situation should finally clear up, confirming Blackrock's interest in one of the strongest crypto (and blockchain) projects of the moment.

ALGO is also available on Capital.com (here for a free virtual account), a broker that allows you to invest in over 235 cryptocurrency crosses via its web platform - or alternatively also with MetaTrader 4 and TradingView. The richest cryptocurrency broker on the list - which also includes Algorand in cross against the US dollar.

Index The details of the operation are still uncertain And it is still uncertain whether the purchase will be finalized in the next few hours - or if more time will be needed. Blackrock has already taken an interest in Bitcoin in the past and has been among the investment companies that are more open to investing in cryptocurrency, particularly in recent weeks.

The surprise, however, would be this: instead of investing in that Bitcoin on which today various structured financial products - and managed by giants such as WisdomTree - Blackrock could focus on a project still in progress and which is already among the top 40 tokens by market capitalization. .

What is Blackrock? Blackrock is the richest and most powerful investment company in the world. Active for more than 30 years, it has almost 9,000 billion assets under management and has equity investments in all or almost all of the major companies in the world. Blackrock, through its subsidiaries, has investments for over 20 billion dollars also in the Italian stock exchange and owns shares, also important, of Italian public debt.

The interest - and the acquisition - by an investment company of this caliber could quickly push the price of ALGO to levels currently unthinkable - and this is the reason that has led us to provide advances on how much, for now , is still a rumor.

What is Algorand? Algorand is one of the most important blockchain projects of the moment. We had already talked about it when a well-known Italian coffee producer started using its services to allow crypto payments to its customers.

The project, which is the first to have a negative environmental impact also in terms of emissions, continues to incorporate new features and sees the figure of Silvio Micali, a professor at MIT, at its center. To date, the network is able to support over 1 million transactions per day and also supports NFT and what is necessary to develop decentralized finance tools.

Among the investors in Algorand is Eterna Capital, an operator specialized in blockchain investments, founded in London in spring 2018 by Italian Andrea Bonaceto (co-founder of HiredGrad, a staff recruitment platform supported by Imperial College Incubator, as well as co-author of the first Nft digital artworks made in collaboration with a robot) and three young former BlackRock analysts: Nassim Olive, Asim Ahmad and Mattia Mrvosevic.

Tether (one of the most common stablecoins) just increased its circulating supply in the Algorand blockchain from 10M to 94M tokens, which means we will likely start seeing more transactional volume of USDT in the Algorand blockchain in the near future!

It seems that all new USDTs went to Bitfinex' wallet, so it seems that they are embracing Algorand and expanding the USDT transfer options in their exchange.

Today, Visa  announced a new partnership with Tala, a digital financial services provider in emerging markets, the goal of which is to provide easier access to cryptocurrencies for underbanked consumers, beginning with USD Coin (USDC), a stablecoin backed by the U.S. dollar and governed by the Centre Consortium. USDC is supported on Ethereum, Algorand, Solana and Stellar blockchains. The collaboration will also involve Circle, one of Centre’s founding members, and the Stellar Development Foundation that oversees the XLM cryptocurrency.

Through the integration with Circle and Stellar, Tala’s customers will gain access to USDC in Tala’s digital wallet, supporting asset storage, cross-border transfer, and crypto-fiat exchange functionalities. The partnership with Visa will provide Tala with the ability to issue Visa cards linked to the wallet, enabling Tala’s customers to spend against their USDC balance at any of the 70 million merchants worldwide that accept Visa.






For emerging markets wanting to use USDC through Visa...The fees,high instant speed and high throughput blockchains is what is required.
This is why you are seeing so much USDC & USDT being issued on ALGO & SOL now.

Its very important to allow users in emerging ,markets and other markets to send $1 of USDC/USDT for $1.

Keep accumulating and staking , when Visa goes live with USDC...it will only be the start for ALGO & SOL.

PayPal is exploring the launch of a stablecoin

Four sources with knowledge of the situation told The Block that PayPal has made the rounds among some of the industry’s stablecoin protocol developers — suggesting the payments giant may be leaning towards working with a third-party company.

Ava Labs, the team behind the Avalanche blockchain, is one of the organizations that has held talks with PayPal over stablecoin development, according to people familiar with the matter. It is not clear which other protocols have been involved in the discussions. 

On March 8, PayPal announced that it had completed the acquisition of crypto security firm and multi-party computation (MPC) start-up Curv.






AVAX is a great choice however i believe Paypal will use a few Blockchains....the Multichain setup.
With the CURV ALGO partnership earlier this year, im sure Algorand will be chosen.

Doing some research into Dfinity ICP... so far sounds real impressive and has some big investors.


The DFINITY Foundation is a not-for-profit organization based in Zurich, Switzerland, that oversees research centers in Palo Alto, San Francisco, Tokyo, and Zurich.
Our mission is to build, promote, and maintain the Internet Computer — and by doing so, improve the world.
The Internet Computer extends the functionality of the internet from connecting billions of people to also providing millions of developers and entrepreneurs with a public compute platform — creating a revolutionary new way to build websites, enterprise systems and internet services within an open environment.
This public software development platform is created by independent data centers around the world combining computing power using an advanced decentralized protocol called ICP. In turn, this generational shift in computing aims to take on Big Tech and return the internet back to its free and open roots. DFINITY was founded in 2016 by Dominic Williams.

4. From the POV of blockchain enthusiasts:

The Internet Computer has a blockchain under the hood. I have collected some good starting points of tweetstorms and public communication that may help here. I suggest clicking on them if you want to dive deeper into the cited quote.

But as we have mentioned earlier, "More nodes = more blocks & more compute capacity".

source: https://twitter.com/dominic_w/status/1367542332036243458?s=20

"The Internet Computer blockchain can process 1000_s blocks/s. They are discarded without loss of security. Only its current state, which is unlimited in size, is stored across the network..." and linked to our paper on NI-DKG.

source: https://twitter.com/dominic_w/status/1371520326572634112?s=20

For Genesis, we are hoping to have 20-100 blocks per second. As we shared, "we will have many 1000s of dedicated block producing machines and no "cloud validators"

20 Aug 2018

Great explanation from Dom.


ICP making more sense now...
Its not a Blockchain project but you get all the properties of a Blockchain...
its a Decentralized computing network...

[moderator's note: consecutive posts merged]

Algo is cheapest coin I know, 2.40 $ was ico

Smart move....keep stacking...something mega is about to happen with ALGO

100% confident the USDC & USDT GUYS will be stacking huge numbers of ALGOS...
They would be high up as Governors of the chain and they would be earning huge interest...as long as they got fat bags of ALGO.

Then the many other CBDCS that will be built on ALGO...The banks and Visa will want
to earn and have a say in Governance....

The suppression on ALGO wont last because they will be bought out by the huge deep pockets that want ALGO.

 ALGO Governance and rewards info ......

 Vision of creating a fully decentralized Algorand ecosystem.


Program Overview
• Goal: Entrust the future of the Algorand ecosystem to a community
who are committed to the Algorand project and its vision.
• All Algorand users can become Governors and are encouraged to do so.
• Program will begin on/around October, 2021.
• Commitment Period to participate: 90 days.
• Quarterly entry points, ensuring maximum participation for new &
existing Algorand users.
• Voting will take place on a quarterly basis with penalties for early exit.
• Fully replaces existing participation rewards program by 2022.




Voting
• Governors will become responsible for the major economic and policy
decisions in the ecosystem via the distribution of the AERP. These include:
• Distribution of Innovation Grants.
• Ecosystem Partnerships.
• Future Node Runner / Infrastructure Incentives.
• Social Good Investment Policy.
• Governance Rewards & Incentives.
• The Foundation will setup the votes and declare its preference – but will
not participate in the voting (or governance rewards).
• Reward distribution linked to the act of voting, not just commitment.
• One Commited Algo = 1 Vote



Market Event (Signup & Commit)
:
At the beginning of each
governance period there will be a
5 day window to declare intent to
govern for that period.
• Reward Rate: The reward will be
determined by the willing
participants, based on the total
tokens being locked against the
total reward pool for that period.
• Frequency: Rewards will be
distributed quarterly, for all
governing accounts participating in
the votes. Rewards will be
immediately available and will not
be subject to locking



Rewards
July 2021: last participation rewards increase to 21,850,000.
Until the end of 2021, Participation Rewards at the same level.
The Governance program will start in October, and Governors
will get all reward increases
In 2022, Participation Rewards will be phased out, to be
completely replaced by
Governance Rewards


 Examples (based on a full year reward pool of 300M algo):
• If we have 4 Billion Algo entering the program (by locking in Governing Accounts), their rewards will be
an annualized 300M/4B=7.7% for every Algo locked.
• If we have 2 Billion Algo entering the program (by locking in Governing Accounts), their rewards will be
an annualized 300M/2B=15% for every Algo locked.
• If we have 1 Billion Algo entering the program (by locking in Governing Accounts), their rewards will be
an annualized 300M/1B=33% for every Algo locked.

Nice. Bought more algo. Bonfida doing well too

Good move, pick up the dips on the gems...profits will come with relaxing and patience...

$1.10 ALGO or lower this is the time to FOMO...
We just keep picking up the Cheap ALGO before it moves up to the next level...which is due very soon.

ALGO will go like SOL has aswell, dont chase it when it shoots up...keep grabbing them now while they are cheap and ignore everything else.

[moderator's note: consecutive posts merged]

Great man! Bought from dips yesterday and now gaining profits. Little but still a gain.
I lost gas for buying tho cause of the continuing drops lol
Patiently waiting for the great flippening.

It was like a black friday sale,lol
so many good coins scooped up for so cheap....
thanks to all that sold 

With my SOL happily staking away...
Im focused on ALGO mainly for the time being, the bargain price and i cannot resist the 33% rewards starting in Oct 2021.

Starting today, inbound transfers for USDT are now available in the regions where trading is supported. Traders cannot place orders and no orders will be filled. Trading will begin on or after 6PM PT on Monday April 26 , if liquidity conditions are met.



Only erc-20 version USDT just now....?? why it makes no sense...
List USDT sure but at least add SPL and ALGO, both got USDT and both let users send a $tether for a $tether within seconds...
unlike erc 20 version where you pay $45usdt to send $1usdt.

Im sure they will add them later but this should have been done at launch.




[moderator's note: consecutive posts merged]

Our SOL HOT and ALGO slowly recovering. This bitcoin dump may be the last now or one last time and well hit altseason. Bitcoin dominance slowly decreasing.

Its nowhere near ATH, ive said it many times, $200+ this year and $500-$1000 will happen later.
Its worth so much more for what they have done are doing for the future.


Hope you got some ALGO aswell...
At least 10 Algo...

Van dammmmmn $36 SOL 

Im now getting that fomo feeling with ALGO looking so cheap at $1.30

<------Buying ALGO

Accumulate cheap ALGO while you can, ALGO wont be so cheap for long...act before others do.

What lies in store for 2021 for Algorand....

Let’s take a sneak peek at what lies in store for the year 2021 in terms of enhancements to be provided on the chain. Adding functionalities without compromising on the features of decentralization and security to keep up the network performance is at the top of the list. The major changes in the features expected are listed below:

Block finalization time, the time taken to add a new block permanently to the chain, reduction from 4.5 sec to 2.5 sec

Finalized TPS (transactions per second) to grow from 1,000 to 46,000  <---- i hear something is happening with this soon 

Block Proposal time, time it takes observers to become aware of which block is a candidate to be permanently added to the chain,  not to grow from 0.5 seconds with growth in the number of transaction from 5,000 to 25,000

$1.15 ALGO  WOW

Accumulate as much ALGO while its low, soon it will cost double and you will get half for what you can today and even less as the weeks and months pass.

Another way i sometimes look at SOL/ALGO is the staking is similar to mining without the high cost and operating headaches...you earn coin.
The SOL/ALGO coins are like buying miners...but these miners for staking have a limited supply

Chancellor of the Exchequer, Rishi Sunak said:

Our vision is for a more open, greener, and more technologically advanced financial services sector. The UK is already known for being at the forefront of innovation, but we need to go further. The steps I’ve outlined today, to boost growing fintechs, push the boundaries of digital finance and make our financial markets more efficient, will propel us forward. And if we can capture the extraordinary potential of technology, we’ll cement the UK’s position as the world’s pre-eminent financial centre.

I was right   
Finally Visa mention Solana 
https://www.circle.com/blog/visa-and-usdc-settlement-insights
“One of the reasons Visa partners with Anchorage is that we’re asset agnostic and we’re blockchain agnostic.
Today it could be USDC on Ethereum, tomorrow it could be USDC on Solana or any other network.
It’s not just about one asset and one blockchain, it’s about a different way of transferring value and being faithful to the vision of electronic value exchange,” Prekh said.



Visa will use Solana chain for USDC aswell as other network?...Its ALGO..
VISA will use a few chains, ETH,XLM are expensive and slow when compared to the others...


Better get as much ALGO as you can while its still such a bargain, rank 38,$3.7bill is crazy cheap.

Woaa ..party time, cheap coin for the smart 

Pick em up guys, you know what to do by now...

DROPS MORE, BUY EVEN MORE

If we have 1Billion ALGO locked up reward will be 33% for each ALGO per year
                2 Billion ALGO locked up reward will be 15% for each ALGO per year
                3 Billion ALGO locked up reward will be 7.7% for each ALGO per year

When this goes live in Oct 2021 i believe option 1 will happen...1 Billion coins with 33% rewards if you take part...

Best keep accumulating  ALGO before others find out about the huge rewards increase..the more you hodl the more you will earn.

(Bloomberg) -- Republic, the largest private investment platform, will issue a digital profit-sharing token on the Algorand blockchain next month as more financial firms begin to embrace cryptocurrencies.

New York-based Republic, with more than 700,000 users, plans to release the token on July 16, Chief Executive Officer Kendrick Nguyen said in an interview. The token gives customers access to profit from only some of the deals done on the platform, he said.

“This dividend, profit-sharing token will be widely available to non-accredited as well as accredited investors,” Nguyen said.

woa, SOL sale...$24...gotta grab more now..im FOMOing lols
lower it goes the more we buy 

This btc dump is due to whales cashing out on doggies...causing a brief crypto market sale..grab the bargains asap.

---

SOL   


Ignore the FUD, buy the bargains...
All Blockchain 3.0 coins are needed for big business, they are buying while noobs are panic selling.

ALGO is prob best bargain right now.

---

Why is btc and other coins dumping?
Well part of the answer is here...
https://www.aljazeera.com/economy/2021/4/16/turkey-bans-crypto-payments-and-bitcoin-feels-the-pain


So people panic sold btc and other coins cause turkey banned it.
How many times have we saw this...for noobs its bad news but of us its just fud lol

But why is SOL/ALGO going up?
They are rising because they are working with the banks (CBDC'S etc) visa and big business...so they cannot get banned lol

Big business needs cheap ,fast scalable chains for many use cases...

---

Something to think about.....

Blockchain 3.0 coins apart from the better tech over POW coins there is so much more...



staking coins have a huge difference from old POW coins, the stakes are locked and cannot dump as easy as POW coins.

The biggest reason is because
The stakers earn, so even if it drops the stakers still have more coin and can sell from their earned stake...
unlike POW coins which you always end up having less of when you sell.


Benefits of being a long term staker.....
Try working out a few scenarios and you will learn what im saying...in a dump scenario...
you have 1 btc worth $60k, it drops 50% after a year you still have 1 btc but now worth $30k, if you sell after the dump  10% btc you get 50% less fiat ..
but if you had 2k SOL worth $60k staking with 10% rewards and the market dropped 50% after a year just like btc...
you would have earned 200 extra SOL worth $3k, you could sell the 200 SOL and still have your original 2k SOL...

In a pump scenario the stake coins win even more than POW coins...


Hope this makes sense...


Also with $100k worth of SOL/ALGO staking
you can easily get $8k rewards at current prices....if the coin doubles you get $16k thats a salary for some people...
When the coins go x3 you got a full time salary of $24k per year and you still got your coins...
You can basically buy a paid job lol.

ALGO is very undervalued right now...
I worked out, 1 ALGO right now should be around $6...and soon it will be.

$35 SOL...and showing no signs of slowing down 


[moderator's note: consecutive posts merged]

Yes youre right, people are being dragged in the cents tokens hype that doubles triples or even x10 their investments, during this time of accumulation of money injecting not only in bitcoin but in cryptocurrencies.

Coinbase will be selling 114 million shares directly to the public according to its SEC filing. Aside from that, there is no fixed or determined amount of shares that will be for sale as other shareholders may or may not sell their shares.

The company will not be paying dividends on its stock, nor does it plan to pay dividends to shareholders in the future.
 Coinbase writes that it intends “to retain all available funds and any future earnings for use in the operation of our business and do not anticipate paying any dividends on our capital stock in the foreseeable future.”
https://www.etoro.com/news-and-analysis/stocks/coinbase-ipo-guide/



After reading this and seeing Coinbase is not paying dividends, FTT just got even more appealing especially for traders & hodlers.
Traders hodling FTT can get many incentives on FTX exchange and anyone hodling gets staking rewards..unlike Coinbase COIN.

i think Coinbase should at least let shareholders have some incentives like BNB & FTT already do.



Coinbase Coin, supply 114mill, mcap $100Billion

Binance BNB, supply 154mill, mcap $85Billion

FTX FTT, supply 94mill, mcap $5Billion  

Good approach

Yea staking some ZIl still...
No,Coinbase ,no BNB... no point...they will grow but not as much as FTT will.

Mega FTT breakout is due soon...its to cheap when compared to the others.

When buying a coin, i like to keep my money smart...i fomo at cheap prices lol
