SEC Halts Trading of Two Crypto-Related Products

https://dcebrief.com/sec-halts-trading-of-two-crypto-related-products/

Hi alfaalfa, please check your computer time is correct and your DNotes wallet version (Help > About DNotes) v2.0.2.1. If those are correct, I would recommend restarting the wallet again. If the syncing issue continues, you can delete everything from C:\Users\YOURUSERNAME\AppData\Roaming\DNotes2 except your wallet.dat and any wallet backups you have. That will download the blockchain again from the beginning and correct most issues.

Hello, I have a little problem regarding the syncing of the wallet. I was staking fine until now. At this moment it says "out of sync" and also that I'm staking. 24hrs passed and I had no more staks. Usually I get some every 4-6 hrs or so. What can I do to sync the wallet? I tried restarting and "repairwallet" command in the console. I hope you can help me. Thank you!

It is nice to see all the people here staying positive and focused on the goal, even now when when we are in a bear market and almost all crpto are in red.

I am sure that when you are working hard as DNotes team is an have such clear goals, you can stay positive even at the times like this. Because you can believe in your work and that there is success at the end of the road

Expert to Congress: Terrorists Have Had Little Success with Crypto Fundraising
 
https://dcebrief.com/expert-to-congress-terrorists-have-had-little-success-with-crypto-fundraising/

Wow! Looks like we are grooming a few wise men and women at a young age. It is rewarding and that is where I get my inspiration. Very proud of you guys. Keep up with the great work.

I do like that mountain analogy -- it makes me think of how we have a very clear vision and mission of what where we are heading, and by that analogy, it is the top of the very tallest mountain around. It can take a while to climb that mountain, but it is worth it in the end because you'll be higher than anybody else. And for that reason, we need not concern ourselves with what others' are doing, who may be further up their own mountain, but one that is not as high. Just stick to the mission we have, which is a big bold idea of massive scope, and hold true to it.

Excellent, it brings to light the issue that there will be many forks in the road ahead. An analogy Alan frequently uses, we are heading to the peak of that mountain way over there, and we are going to take the most efficient path to get there, we will hit a few deviations along the way but never stray from the core objective. Our communications reflect this in how we detail our plans. As a new industry there are many uncertainties and unsettled issues.

CRISP and Its Role in the Broader DNotes Ecosystem

One of the things that makes DNotes truly unique in an industry packed with rival digital currencies is the fact that the DNotes currency doesn’t exist within a vacuum. Instead, it exists within an entire ecosystem of products and services designed to support and facilitate its overall mission. The components of that ecosystem were all specifically created to further DNotes’ goal of achieving mass acceptance and adoption, while simultaneously providing invaluable services to the industry and public. Our innovative CRISP offerings are a perfect example of how that works.

As a core component of the DNotes ecosystem, CRISP is strategically linked to that system and was created to help us achieve DNotes’ ultimate objective: becoming an inclusive digital currency in global commerce, for the benefit of everyone. In this article, I will explain how CRISP fits into the DNotes and DNotes Global model in a way that benefits everyone on the network.

What IS CRISP?

CRISP, short for cryptocurrency investment savings plan, is a self-directed and decentralized DNotes savings plan that pays interest in DNotes on DNotes balances directly from the blockchain.

A Brief History of CRISP

CRISP has evolved over the years from its original iterations. CRISP started as a retirement savings program called CRISP for Retirement, which was funded by the DNotes team and paid interest to users who would lock up funds for a specific amount of time. In return users received a monthly interest payment from the DNotes team, automatically paid to their DNotesVault retirement account. The retirement program was immensely popular and the original one million DNotes to be paid in interest, which was intended to last about 5 years, was depleted in just over two years.

Later we started the CRISP for Kids program, to encourage parents to create savings programs for their children and grandchildren and teach their kids about the importance of developing strong saving habits early in life. This program became popular very quickly as well, with gifts from the DNotes team for the kids who had funded CRISP for Kids accounts.

The DNotes team continued the concept and created CRISP for Students, CRISP for Employee Incentive Benefits, and will be creating a CRISP for Charity - templates that can be rapidly scaled up at the right time.

Eventually, we realized that the popularity of the programs we were creating would cause us to run out of DNotes to support these efforts. We determined the best way to handle this problem was to integrate the CRISP program as part of the blockchain block reward and make it a crucial element of the DNotes new coin-generation process. Not only would that enable CRISP over the long-term, but it would also make the generation of new coins more equitable and accessible to everyone, regardless of whether they were staking.  

Fixed Rate Permanent Interest

Users earn 0.5% DNotes every CRISP payment cycle of 30 days, paid directly from the blockchain on any DNotes that have remained at the same address for the entire CRISP period. Other interest-bearing accounts frequently change the interest rate, and to provide competitive rates they rely heavily on debt, or speculative investing with customer funds.

Compounding Interest Enhanced by Staking

CRISP not only offers interest that is compounded monthly, but users may also stake their DNotes at the same time, earning both CRISP interest and the staking reward.

Inclusive and Decentralized New Money Creation

CRISP is an inclusive program that anyone, anywhere in the world can participate in simply by owning DNotes. Instead of new money being created mainly by private corporations or governments, all DNotes users are involved in the money creation process. This also means newly created coins are distributed to those who have DNotes best interests in mind, the stakeholders, instead of miners.

No Setup or Reliance on Third Parties

Unlike typical savings accounts, CRISP does not require any setup, or a bank or investment account. All you need to access the CRISP programs is access to an internet connection and some DNotes. Since the DNotes for CRISP are generated from the block reward, the rate is fixed and there is no external entity to mishandle your savings or invest your money.

Encourages Saving and Protects the Value of DNotes

CRISP promotes investment and savings for the DNotes currency and works to protect the long-term value of DNotes. Instead of encouraging users to spend money right away to vitalize the economy, DNotes CRISP fosters long term saving to protect the individual user.

Supports the Continued Growth of the DNotes Ecosystem

DNotes Global, Inc. is a for-profit company whose mission is to promote and protect the DNotes digital currency and grow the DNotes ecosystem. The CRISP program is also designed to help the company in its mission by providing interest on the DNotes owned by DNotes Global in the cross-ownership model.

Not Just Savings and Interest but also a Promotional Tool

The CRISP program is not only a savings program, it is a promotional outreach and marketing tool to help DNotes reach more people. As such we will have targeted campaigns to help people save and grow their wealth and as an incentive program for DNotes users.

The Future of CRISP

The models we have created for CRISP are all templates for targeted savings plans which can be marketed individually and encourage the participation of DNotes digital currency. This can be scaled rapidly and expanded into other niche savings and incentive programs.

In the future, DNotes Global intends to have its own team for managing funds for organizations and charities, in which CRISP will play a critical role as not only an investment vehicle for these organizations but also as a tool for stabilizing and growing the DNotes currency.

In short, the DNotes CRISP strategy continues to be an essential component in our long-term strategy for making DNotes an inclusive supplemental digital currency that provides financial empowerment for people around the globe. It remains a truly unique and innovative program that can help real people better manage their savings needs.

Let me clarify. When NextGen VC is place after DNotes Global is sufficiently funded, it is our intent to assist our investment-client to use DNotes blockchain to launch their coin in a compliance ICO.

Two issues are unsettled at this time.
1)  What offering, and disclosure statement would the SEC find acceptable. We believe that ICO is the best and the most efficient tool for capital formation in funding new projects or funding company expansion. My understanding is that the SEC is not against ICO but when an ICO involves the sale of securities, it falls squarely in the SEC’s jurisdiction. The SEC is mandated to protect investors and one of their means is to require filing of disclosure statements with adequate and accurate disclosure materials so that investors can make informed decision. I am hopeful that upon successful funding of DNotes Global first round I will have the opportunity to work closely with the SEC staff and other interested parties.

2)  We have invested heavily in the development of the DNotes 2.0 blockchain with every intent of turning it into a platform for others to develop their applications on and use it to launch new coins. Various possibilities and options have been discussed but we are not at liberty to discuss any details at this point. In general, to ensure best in class mindset in everything that matters, we will likely to be involved with investment, technical assistance, management, and leadership.

I am personally becoming very excited about NextGen VC. It could be a game changer in funding and business management to ensured greatly improved chances of succeeding in business. There are already more proposed projects coming our way than I have time to review.

Interest in our funding remains strong. However, I will not take anything for granted until we are fully funded. It is keeping me increasing busy; communicating with new prospect almost daily. It is rewarding to know from many high-level people in our industry how much they respect the direction we have been taking, what we have accomplished, and our positive contributions to our industry. From my experience, those are great indicators of DNotes becoming an industry leader, though it has yet to be reflected in the price of DNotes.

Please keep up the good work supporting our forum and social media. Your support goes a long way towards the success of our funding efforts. Thank you.

Thank you Alan

That is excellent to hear such positive feedback from respected peers and those on the outside, looking in.

Next Gen VC is probably the most interesting program we have in planned development, and will be instrumental in solidifying our position as a leader in our industry.

It is unfortunate that much of this high regard that we are held in has yet to be reflected in the price of DNotes. But we know the vision, mission, and objectives, and the appropriate steps to continue moving forward. That forward momentum will result in all the conditions being met that will see our efforts reflected in the DNotes price.

Well said Alan and Tim, I'm looking forward to see Next Gen  VC in action. According to all I have read it will be great tool and very beneficial to the DNotes in general👍

Alan Yong, [08.09.18 10:20]
The teachings from my book "Improve Your Odds - The Four Phiilars of Business Success" and NextGen VC could have a positive impact in helping to reduce the high rate of business failures. Currently, 8 out of 10 business failed in the first 10 years. As  the book applies to DNotes by finding and solving major problems confronting our industry, we will do the same for NextGen VC's clients. I strong urge everyone - all of DNotes supporter to acquire a copy of the audio book narrated by Tim. He did a fantastic job. Thank you very much, Tim.

All reports aside, this is certainly indicative of the volatility in this market, and begs the question, why haven't any analysts tailored traditional stress test methodology to measure the viability of cryptocurrencies when faced with a financial crisis or other major incident? These kind of measurements could help keep investors well informed and protected from investment opportunities that are built on poor fundamentals.

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Stress_test_(financial)

If billions of dollars can evaporate with the slightest hint of bad news, maybe it is time for industry participants to re-evaluate their approach and start to ask themselves questions like, "who is paying the price for my profit?"
