Driving Open-Source Development: Ledger App for EOS.

EOS New York announced their direct support for the development of the EOS ledger app. The last Github pull request of the app took place on December 7 and the application recently had compatibility issues with Chrome, which have now been resolved.

EOS New York noticed the growing fragility of this important tool for the community, and for this reason it intends to evolve the Ledger application for EOS in a semi-structured framework by doing the following:

 - Raise community awareness
 - Make it easy to contribute
 - Create a stable release cycle and relationship with Ledger

In addition to that, they have hired a paid consultant who has deep experience with Ledger apps. They directed their consultant to set up a test pipeline which allows developers to easily generate compiled binaries from a pull request.

EOS Dapps surpassed TRON in new user acquisitions.

According the latest RatingDapp Weekly Report, EOS Dapps surpassed TRON in new user acquisitions, with a total of 39,097 new addresses in the past week.

"The number of new users of EOS and ETH has increased by more than 40% since last week. TRON is in a recession, falling by nearly 20%, but still surpassing ETH. User acquisition also directly affects the number of weekly active users. TRON has a small loss of about 5% weekly active users, EOS and ETH continue to grow, and EOS weekly active users reach 132,266."

In the last week some new Casino dApps managed to reach in the top 10 EOS dApps ranking, such as BetHash, Trust Dice, VSbet and EOSABC. Overall, the number of active users of the top 10 Dapps has generally increased too.

Hyperion History API Solution.

The EOS Rio team released a new solution for the EOS History API, the Hyperion History API. After an extensive analysis of the current History API plugin, the EOS Rio team recognized that the current plugin inflates the database with redundant informations. Therefore they developed Hyperion History, with a new approach to data structure and storage.

Through this new format, the database size can be reduce from almost 5Tb to approximately 650Gb, and they can extract all the past data from the blockchain in about 72 hours.

EOS Rio is already providing History API using Hyperion at https://br.eosrio.io/v2/history
The project code and preliminary set up instructions are available at https://github.com/eosrio/Hyperion-History-API

vElemental Battles, DAPP Network showing its potential.

The LiquidApps team released a new article on Medium, where they analyze how an EOS dApp can be improved, in particular by reducing costs and enhancing user experience, through the DAPP Network.

How the DAPP Network can be used:
- Register application front-end on IPFS
- Minimize the amount of RAM required by a dApp

"By allowing dApps to store their data sets permanently on IPFS nodes hosted by DSPs and turn RAM into a lightweight cache layer, vRAM empowers gaming developers to create a new generation of scalable applications on the blockchain. As demonstrated by vElemental Battles"

EOS Weekly - Understand the EOS permissions system.

Today EOS Weekly published a new video on Youtube. The video gives listeners an in depth view of how the EOS permission system works, along with some great examples and easy explanation of how it has been used by Chintai and eosDac.

"EOSIO permissions make it possible to strengthen account security to the point where lost or stolen keys become nothing more than minor inconveniences.  In this episode, we explain what EOSIO permissions are at the conceptual level, and the trend towards a strong, mesh network of interconnected accounts."

Dan's hottest messages of the day.

"Bitshares and steem enabled me to learn enough to build eos. Now I need to build something bigger than Steem with eosio so I can learn to generalize the scaling of eosio. IBC without apps that can use it is pointless, eosio can sustain 2000+ transfers per second on our automated testing. No dapp is near that yet".

Its an interesting article and I see LiquidApps platform could bring EOS more projects that could redefine it development process and thereby could make the whole network bigger and more sophisticated.

Speech by Brendan Blumer at the DC Blockchain Summit 2019.

Brendan Blumer spoke at the DC Blockchain Summit 2019 in Washington. During his speech he expressed his opinion on some blockchain's hot topics. Topics such as its development in governance, security and possible future businesses that can be built around the technology.

"We tend to think how that going to affect existing business, but what often happens is, it's the businesses that couldn't even exist or could never be thought of that emerged and change our entire social system and our society that tend to be the biggest impactors. Blockchain will have a whole host of those businesses as well."

EOS is now developing, I mean that way, because I see how many projects appear on its base. Today there is a real sense to look at this, because I understand that the history is being built today.

Though I'm also a fan of Litecoin, but I cannot say that EOS is in direct competition with it even though its shares a nearly tied up marketcap, still both has distinct niche and has its own unique supporters and adopters. Imho.

This Dan Larimer is the same guy who scammed a lot of people in the launch of Steem. Watch out.

Semi Fungible Tokens (SFT) by dGoods.

The dGoods team published the latest dGoods development update. This aims to keep the community updated on the latest developments of the standard and to answer some of the questions raised by users.

Hot topics of the last few weeks:
 - RAM efficiency
 - Secondary Indices for Categories
 - Semi-Fungible Tokens (SFTs)

About SFTs:
"We see a future where SFTs will be the dominant use case in the emerging digital goods economy; and as a result, we are making SFTs a core part of the dGoods standard. We’ll spend a lot more time talking about this soon"

SFTS example:
 - You are selling 200 tickets to a concert. All the tickets are the same, but they have a different seat #.
 - Your game has a limited set of 1000 digital swords that look and function exactly the same, except they all have a different serial # from 1–1000.

currently EOS compitator is litecoin because litecoin and EOS marketcap is almost same and little bit diffrence left that litecoin coin take over EOS according to the coinmarketcap. did EOS price could cross 4$ and remain its 4th position on coinmarketcap?.

EOS have very good fundamentals and is one of the top cryptocurrency that is favored among enthusiasts and investors alike and I guess their resolve is to hold it for long term to maximize profits. Imho.

The coin looks very strong in the market, and I think you need to invest at the moment as the price has fallen very much and I think it may cost more than$ 50 by the end of the year!
