That was a part of the discussion I had at Geneca a few days ago. When our full and totally integrated systems is in place, it will enable a lot of things on our wish list to happen seamlessly in a trusted environment. The end users do not need to know the complexities of our back-end infrastructure, the philosophies, algorithm, and support systems behind it. What matters is -"it is simple, convenient, secured, and I trust the the people who build and operate the system". That is one of the biggest problems we are attempting to solve. Yes, it will take us a few years and some massive investment.

This! No matter how involved or complicated the back end might be, you guys have to make it look easy! The end user does not care about all the back end details. If you need someone to alpha or beta test any of your systems, I'd be happy to do it. I will tell you straight out if it's too complicated. I'm sure you'll do great, though. The fact that you're partnering with a real software development company speaks volumes. Thank you for going to that length!

You are welcome, Wiser. Thank you for your offer. I am sure that your experience will lead to invaluable feedback representing the typical consumers.

It looks like bitcoin ETFs will have to wait. The volatility of the last few weeks was likely the final straw.

Cryptocurrency ETFs Are Off the Table for Now, the SEC Says

http://fortune.com/2018/01/19/sec-cryptocurrency-etfs-bitcoin/

Cryptocurrencies are clearly still seen as a challenge by regulatory bodies to allow proper integration into the financial system, with some clear problems that need to be addressed. Tomorrow we are hoping to have an article released on www.dcebrief.com that will run through the game theory nash equilibrium for why governments and other traditional financial institutions should work with cryptocurrency integration, rather than against it. We are aiming for an approximate ~10pm Sunday CST release time, all things going to plan.

There has got to be some formula that reasonably accurately predicts what the cryptocurrency market will do next. Why do I think that? Because I personally am getting better and better at "calling" it for my own trades based on some sort of gut feeling. While I'd love to give my psychic powers all the credit (LOL), I'm sure that what's feeding into my gut feeling ability to predict when is a good time for me to make a trade is based on real data that my brain is analyzing in the background (without me really knowing how) that could also be analyzed by a good computer program.

Lucky you, I wish aliens would beam this kind of information down to me!

They will. You just have to stay up till late at night, every night - doing you homework. Lol!

Wow, you guys put in some serious work covering many different issues. Highly recommended reading. It deserves my second reading when I have more time. Below are some direct quotes from the article.

Executive Brief
One of the main sources of frustration for those of us who are blockchain and cryptocurrency enthusiasts is the degree to which big companies and large financial institutions still don’t understand our industry. Earlier this week, one of New Zealand’s largest banks ASB released a blog post by their General Manager of Global Markets, Nigel Annett. We believe that post offers tremendous insight into how financial institutions and other major organizations are thinking about cryptocurrency and blockchain adoption.
………
Quote from Nigel Annett:
“Ironically, banking’s profitability is both a strength and a weakness in responding to the threat of exponential technology. Strong profitability signals there is no burning platform to change with urgency. Strong profitability also means shareholders expect stable future returns. But disruptive competitors don’t think this way. They are happy to sacrifice short-term profitability for longer-term growth that drives greater consumer surpluses. The challenge for banks is striking the right balance to maintain and enhance their position in the customer value chain.”

Quote From Timothy Goggin and Daniel Gross:
Nigel’s understanding of the upcoming effect of cryptocurrencies and blockchain on traditional systems is a lot better than most major institutions that we have seen so far, though we do draw attention to some substantial points of disagreement. Traditional banking and central government institutions can benefit greatly and profitably from cryptocurrencies with the methods we have outlined above, and significant negative consequences could be incurred should they be ignored. Cryptocurrencies are presenting the world with the same choice offered by the internet two decades ago—get on board or get run over. Cryptocurrencies are getting bigger by the day and they are not going to go away, no matter what anyone or any institution says.

Quote from Brandon today:

"Same here Alan's article re-inspired me. I have a few things on the go and am traveling today, but will also be working on an article for DCEBrief that I've mapped out. If you need another set of eyes to edit/proofread, feel free to email it to me."

Thank you, Brandon. We appreciate your significant contributions to DNotes' success, including an immensely valuable component - DNotesEDU. It greatly expands our mission to help others through education with objective, much needed, and unbiased information. Just imagine what else you could do when DNotes becomes a big success. That is why we want to only focus on a few things at a time to ensure that they become truly successful. Once accomplished, we can leverage our success to do more great things. That is how we can help change the world a little. As I have said many times, we do it "brick by brick or block by block" until we have a solid foundation. And, of course, they are all strategically linked.

That was a part of the discussion I had at Geneca a few days ago. When our full and totally integrated systems is in place, it will enable a lot of things on our wish list to happen seamlessly in a trusted environment. The end users do not need to know the complexities of our back-end infrastructure, the philosophies, algorithm, and support systems behind it. What matters is -"it is simple, convenient, secured, and I trust the the people who build and operate the system". That is one of the biggest problems we are attempting to solve. Yes, it will take us a few years and some massive investment.

I understand Alan, it's easy to get spread too thin when there are so many possibilities on the table. But unfortunately when that route is taken, as opposed to focusing on one task at a time, nothing usually gets completed to a satisfactory degree. This is speaking from my personal experience.

I want to assure everyone that DNotesEDU is my top priority, bar none.

Excellent, Brandon. We appreciate the great work you guys are doing at DNotesEDU. I strongly encourage anyone interested in helping DNotesEDU to reach out to Brandon.

Thank you for the support Alan, unfortunately we are not looking for new volunteers at this time. If we think someone will be a valuable asset to our long term goals, we will reach out to them personally.

Looking forward to the relaunch of DNotesEDU, the preview you sent over is excellent! As I understand, the primary mission is financial education and literacy and how it relates to digital currency, do you plan to expand into other aspects of education related to digital currency or keep it more focused?

I can tell you there will definitely be more digital currency educational material, but I have been sworn to secrecy on the rest. lol

One of Alan's posts mentioned a 20 hour workday... I understand completely!!

Have a great weekend everyone!

You guys are doing a fantastic job. I am on my way to the farm where we have our recording studio. I am committed to finishing the remaining video series for the book project - 70 + videos. That project will be 100% completed by the end of January. That itself is quite an accomplishment. My thanks to all of you who have given me the encouragement, inspiration, and support to make it possible. I trust that it will go a long way to help entrepreneurs and startups to gain better success in business. It is all based on the philosophy of inclusiveness and succeeding together. That is what DNotes is about. Good luck and thanks.

I have been enjoying watching the videos you have made, which are a different and more personal way to absorb the information contained in your book. When this is completed, it will support so much more of what we are doing, and signal the true expertise behind what DNotes Global will be accomplishing in the years to come.

Thanks, Tim. I am glad that you like the videos. We have been making huge efforts to expand the guiding principles established in the book to make them even more understandable as they relate to entrepreneurs' everyday challenges in managing their business. If we can find the right strategic partners, the next step is to start promoting the book soon. Meanwhile, there are considerations to produce additional training materials that could be used broadly in corporate America training programs. That, again, is part of our overall strategy to gain mass acceptance of DNotes.
