Bittrex is excited to announce that we will be listing Hedera Hashgraph ($HBAR) for Bittrex U.S. and International customers!
We will begin accepting deposits on Monday, September 16, 2019 at 00:00 UTC / 17:00 PDT.
Customers will be able to trade on the HBAR/BTC, HBAR/ETH, HBAR/USDT, and HBAR/USD markets on Tuesday, September 17 at 09:00 UTC/ 02:00 PDT.
The timing of the items outlined above may change due to market conditions or network stability.

Is this coin totally based on the hashgraph? Could you post the project website?

Wonder if anyone has been able to build something successful with hashgraph or it's still remains mere concept?
I really hope we have lots of Blockchain alternatives. Seems like no good project is embracing available alternatives so far

Clean Code and Scale

It doesn't really matter, for example bitcoin is the granddaddy of crypto coins but many altcoins have better features than bitcoin and not a singe one of these so called altcoins are able to kick the king's (bitcoin) crown out of its head for a whooping 10years and counting, the fact is will people choose hashgraph over bitcoin? i doubt it

As a fact of any good protocol, the 'feature' are not part of itself, but rather the protocol ensures security & stability and enables a lot of Features to be build on top of it ( like TCP/IP)

Once u ve found out that the original BitCoin protocoll was and is already such and can scale - than all other funny 'Feature-protocols' are useless.

I am impressed about what hashgraph project has in its disposal but mind you we have few projects on blockchain that has thunderbolt like fast transaction speed but they still can't beat bitcoin in terms of better support, it might take hashgraph many years to stand at where bitcoin is standing today, its really not that easy

Hashgraph really carries a noble mission and they have tremendous will. They are really trying to make a miracle in the crytocurrency market. I appreciate HBAR and I bought their private sale pool for $ 0.0056, and I'm sure that when it is listed on Bittrex and Upbit, its value will increase dramatically.
They have a really big community and we should wait and see what they are about to achieve in the coming days.

I think if hashgraph is better than blockchain, it will give something new and different than blockchain. But in a short of reading in the https://coincodex.com/article/2715/blockchain-versus-hashgraph/, I see that hashgraph is more like a decentralized system which different than blockchain. I learned at :

Quote
One key perceivable perk for Blockchain is that the technology is fully open source. hashgraph, however, is not. This means that Dr. Leemon Baird, the inventor of the hashgraph distributed consensus algorithm and the co-founder and CTO of Swirlds, decides who can use the distributed ledger and who cannot.

But maybe I am wrong for this because I don't read for the whole article. I think hashgraph itself still need more development to compete with the blockchain and let the time will answer who will better.

An immutable open ledger of accounts needs incentives to STAY there and immutable...

PoW does that, nothing else

Please don't shoot me Tongue  I too reacted the same way when I read the topic title.Infact,being an optimistic blockchain supporter,I didn't even bother to open the article until the geek inside me pushed me to.Anyway,I was surprised.I mean we should embrace the changes right ? Here ya go,welcome HashGraph.

The new consensus algorithm

Introducing Hashgraph – a fair and fast, byzantine fault tolerant consensus algorithm. According to the founding Hashgraph team consisting of computer science and cybersecurity pioneers Dr. Leemon Baird and Mance Harmon, the hashgraph consensus method achieves the following notable feats:

It’s fast: 250,000+ transactions per second and limited only by a users bandwidth (Pre-Sharding)
It’s fair: mathematically proven fairness (via Consensus Time Stamping)
It’s secure: bank-grade security (Asynchronous Byzantine Fault Tolerant)
Why is Hashgraph superior to Blockchain?
[read the actual article to know more]

What is it? a new technology? I guess blockchain has not even started and shown its full potential then there is another technology? It is hard for me to accept the fact but maybe I can adopt to changes if it is proven that hashgraph will be way better than blockchain. What is your opinion guys?

Well, it is just a proposition yet. Compared to blockchain that is fully established now and is keep going on its update. We will conclude further but first let's just see it running before making conclusion.

Any changes in the technology for the betterment of the humanity is always welcome but I want to add here    that blockchain technology is tested and followed rigorously. Hashgraph will also have  to pass through the similar tests  before adoption . Till such time have happy moments.

It's too early to pass judgement on Blockchain since we cant actually confirm the claims about hashgraph. Besides, an open source tech will always be ahead of any closed/patented technology.

If hashgraph beats blockchain. Will bitcoin and other blockchain coin die?
No, they won't. HashGraph is a patented tech and many crypto enthusiasts critic such technologies. Personally, I'm not a big fan of technology that is patented by someone. Even if HashGraph is used to create a coin like Bitcoin, it will take ages for it to develop a commercial value. By the time it gets some market value, Bitcoin will be much ahead in terms of the market share along with a few other good coins. The technologies will not even compete with each other. At the end of the day, it's upto the users to decide which tech they're more comfortable with.

Wether it’s Blockchain or Hashgraph what really matters is how it can help the society and how it solves different issues. Competition is a healthy sign that these technological changes has a lot of things to offer, what we might know about these technology might not be enough but both could be beneficial in terms of purpose and efficiency.

I don't think that this is going to be as popular as the blockchain technology that we already have and even if it ends up being so then it will be a while before people are catching up with the hashgraph. I don't think that blockchain is doing bad right now and maybe when the hashgraph becomes popular they can find out a way to coexist

On the main site there is slide with link to conference site.

https://s8.postimg.cc/esf9zvl7p/Screen_Shot_2018-08-22_at_10.17.26_AM.png

And it should be opened site https://www.hedera18.com/ when you press it
But..

https://s8.postimg.cc/8eq6wv8ol/Screen_Shot_2018-08-22_at_10.20.18_AM.png

You get "page not found"
I don't believe, that team, that can't post correct link on its main site can develop blockchain killer technology.
And the fact this error is there for a while shows the real community interest rate


I haven't checked it because it's very taboo for me.
I better understand Blockchain and if I have to learn to return to Hasgraph it takes time to get to understand.

Hashgraph, looks very interesting, it has prospects, and the future. But I think Hashgraph won't have the same success as blockchain.
