Topic: hyperledger or ethereum? (Read 159 times)

I will definitely look into contributing to Burst but first I need a job that pays.
Thanks

Neo is just another platform to capacitate ICO scams but for the Chinese and Asian "market", also called victims lol.

With that said, if I were you, I would go in and try to become a Burst contributor. Think of your long term prospects if you really want to help change the world. But if you want to scam people and become rich, go ahead and start your own ICO.

Great ideas here, Thanks so much.
Any thoughts on Neo? I read it is the Chinese Ethereum.
But I see lots of Asian teams doing ERC20 based ICOs.
I wonder why they are not doing them on the Neo platform.
Thanks again

It's a great idea to help developers for a good work experience. And then create your own project.

Instead of going for the scam path by going into ICO development, why dont you try to be altruistic and offer your services by supporting a real project trying to change the world?

I recommend helping the PoCC developers in Burst. Try exploring their Github.

Maybe after having enough experience, you can start with your own project.

I agree.  Currently, Ethereum is the go-to choice for deploying a token/smart contract to a public and widely distributed blockchain.  Hyperledger's technology is built for enterprise, though some of it could be adapted to a crypto use case (and possibly has been, not completely sure tbh).

My organization BTRIC has initiated contact with the Hyperledger Project and hopefully we will be a part of that soon.  The way I see it, all of the different projects offer the opportunity for innovation that can benefit the entire field.  We are also currently conducting a crowdsale with Ethereum ERC20 tokens, because that's the current de-facto standard.  But we are closely examining the technologies before deciding on a long-term platform for our currency or token.  There are some very real concerns I have about the stability of the Ethereum blockchain.  I'd like to examine some alternatives as well as get input from experts.

You may also want to look into some other novel blockchain projects, such as Stellar, Cardano, and even Ripple. People knock Ripple because it's implemented as centralized (at least right now), but the code could be forked anytime and made into a more distributed system. It's a good idea to keep abreast of the different adaptations of distributed ledger technology.

Oh, and don't forget Omni. If you're familiar with Bitcoin it will probably be the easiest for you to understand Omni because as I understand it, it's a fork that has been enhanced with additional features for their use cases.

Best of luck with your blockchain education!

Best regards,

Hi sv624,
my 2 cents....you're talking abt two dirreferent world. Eth is actually (and I emphasize actually) the most picked due to the ECR20 gold rush. However, in the long run and especially for those industries that'll be running on private blockchain, hyperledger will be the one. Why don't you on the contrary try to invest your time to get familiar with both?? Good luck

Any thoughts please?

Hi All,
I am between jobs and started to invest in cryptos and ICOs and that lead me to decide to switch to a career in blockchain!
I am a backend developer with experience in C, C++, Java, RDBMS and decent exposure to python, perl, javascript, node.js, AWS in wide variety on companies.

I actually started to study Cryptocurrency course from Coursera by Princeton, but their assignments are based in Java.
Why Java when blockchains use C, C++ and smart contracts use scripting languages?

I looked and some job postings and most of them ask for hyperledger or ethereum experience.
Most of the ICOs use ethereum while hyperledger is more for enterprises I believe.
Any thoughts on which is more lucrative and which one has more scope and demand?
And the best way to study these?

Any suggestions where I can contribute to some open source project to gain experience?
Or work for a startup for no salary?

Thanks so much
