Topic: [BURST] What is the Dymaxion? (Read 536 times)

Thanks rico666. That puts everything in place on what Burst holders and outsiders should be expecting and how they should make trading decisions on the Dymaxion's announcement later.

This shall be my last post in this thread and I want to close it with an advice.

Keep your expectations low and dont buy Burst. Its risky.

-------
Tomorrow is the big day for BURST - and for the PoCC.

We would like to take this opportunity to take a step back and look at
the bigger picture - the context in which The Dymaxion will be placed.

First and foremost you should know that the Dymaxion is the result of
dilligent research, pragmatic approach and hard work. We believe, in
2018 it will change the landscape of crypto currencies.

While our expectations may be as big as yours, we would like to warn
everyone from unrealistic speculation. We heard phrases like "it will
kill X or destroy Y..."

It won't. Certainly not immediately and most certainly not
intentionally.

The PoCC didn't come to destroy anything, it came to create something.
There is no need to compete in some destructive or cannibalistic way
with other (formidable) cryptocurrencies. A community of a coin that
was a few months back on the verge of extinction, should never again
adopt that kind of thinking.

We all know the state Burst was in, when the PoCC arrived at the
scene. The PoCC has heard many times how it would have been better to
let Burst die and make some "other new PoC coin" without all the
problems attached to Burst. We ignored these voices, because from both
experience and intuition we knew that you don't shoot a black swan,
just because it has a broken wing. The wing can heal.

We hope, tomorrow you will see that we were right picking up Burst and
pushing it to new levels. Also, we are convinced that in the future
even the most stubborn naysayers will learn to take Burst as a given.

For the PoCC it is at the moment desireable, important and sufficient
to get Burst at eye level with the big cryptocurrencies. We want Burst
to be taken seriously by the users, the exchanges and the markets in
general. The agenda is literally "taking Burst to the next level" and
not "fighting other cryptos".

Which returns us to the "drama" aspect again. The PoCC will not
participate in any drama. Not in any intra-community drama, but in
future also not in any inter-currency drama.

We will continue to work hard to make Burst the best cryptocurrency by
any conceivable metric. It's still a long way to go, but we think that
"doing our thing" and not spending any energy on advocacy, evangelism
or even zealotry will allow us to move faster to our goal than
anything else.

We would like to say a big thank you to everyone who has supported us
so far and let's see how B the FA tomorrow will be.

The PoC Consortium

This is the 3rd clue given for the Dymaxion upgrade.

Check the left of the box labeled Bitcoin. The new Burst will have Layers Implementation. What does that mean?

I know about Lightning for BTC but what does it mean for Burst? Will the scam tokens or colored coins be issued on the top layer now, leaving the base layer pure?

This is plain wrong.

Of course "someone" chooses which technologies influence Burst development.

When the anonymous BurstProject started the coin, they chose NXT as basis and they chose to add PoC

Now it seems something similar is happening...

Thats because you dont understand. No one is considering or choosing technologies that influences Burst's development. They are actual technologies already working in Burst.

Its like revealing a story of how Burst came from nothing to something and then arriving to the Dymaxion.

Nice to see good progress for BURST, one of the oldest coin. Let see what Dymaxion brings up.

I dont understand how you consider or choose the coin name for each box?
Any story or explanation about the selection?

BTC and NXT were revealed this week on the Burst Heritage Tree. That was already obvious from the beginning. Now the query is, what are in those other boxes?

Can anyone guess what they are?

I personally like Burst and with an update like this, my hopes are up which makes me think about getting back into mining.

The Proof of Capacity Consortium has released another clue on what the Dymaxion really is. But with that image, it only brings us more questions.

Having said that, can you guess what technologies are in those boxes? I would say the box at the bottom is BTC.

Yes, they are.

Media talks about Burst as an alternative to Bitcoin https://boerse.ard.de/boersenwissen/boersenwissen-fuer-fortgeschrittene/umweltsuender-bitcoin102.html

and Burst responsibility baton has now been passed officially from the old dev team to PoCC:

With Dymaxion on the horizon, it seems even brighter times are ahead.

But that proved that Burst is bigger than any developer team. Its good to see it still chugging along and now in the capable hands of the PoCC. Things are brighter this time!

Now for the latest update from the PoCC on Twitter.

PoCC on Dymaxion

• There will be no hard or soft fork on December 27th. We worked hard to stabilize the network, so we're not going to torpedo it. While forking will be inevitable in the near future, it will happen in a controlled manner.

Burst coin is dumped for a while, so hope this could make it better again. Burst coin community is great, the only thing I dont like about this coin is the conflict between dev team before.

Thats a good interview. Thanks for sharing it with us. I also saw this image posted in r/Burstcoin and I was thinking Burst developers might start to dip their toes to IOT and tangle technology?



Can you give us more clues on what the Dymaxion really is?

What is this upgrade that everyone in the Burst community is so curious about? The PoCC developer rico666 has said that only 7 people know the answer and that it is "the biggest update to crypto to date".

There is only 19 days to go. Watch the Countdown.

For more information and questions you can visit Burst's subreddit. https://www.reddit.com/r/burstcoin/

With that said, keep your exceptions low and dont buy Burst until the countdown is over. Its risky. Or dont buy at all, it might be nothing.
