Life is a taxable event
So far it has been endless hype and no answers from hashgraph.

I don't understand how it's supposed to be better than bitcoin's ledger, if you just "gossip" how do you have a complete knowledge of previous transactions?

If all the previous transactions get dumped, then you do not have true consensus.

If all the gossip is saved, then you have a ledger that grows at a rate that is impossible to keep up with, not matter the size of your HD (hard-drive).

I just don't get it.

Your country may be your worst enemy
The video and what I've read asks many questions and gives few answers.

What's the weight of a transaction?
How does the transaction spreads across the world (the network)?

Then, the BIG question: BTC is successful because miners are making money. How do you earn anything with that hashgraph thing?

Many say Hashgraph is the future of blockchain everytime new innovation comes they say it is next competition for blockchain

Have you had a the chance to check out the recent changes made to their website? It looks like there is an announcement coming out soon.

I have watched the video posted in the OP. Well, hashgraph looks like a possible game changer, in the end perhaps the blockchain could be overrated Smiley

Payer sa baguette en BTC, c'est possible
so? hahgraph will work on top of blockchain to make atomic swap easy and effortless if i understand you?
no creation of token? no new crypto? just the next step in the evolution of existing platform?

Blockchain is  present technology and will be for long time.

i read about Hashgraph it will replace Blockchain but need long time to do "must have new technology every 50 years"

Actually, atomic swaps are the beginnings of hashgraph being implemented. Perhaps the most advertised of the atomic swap technologies is the Lightning Network. Beware of the Lightning Network. It opens the way to CENTRALIZATION, and the banks taking over the blockchains, rather than allowing everything to remain in decentralization.

Right now most of the various "coins" have atomic swap activated within them, within their blockchains. All they need is outside programming to make it work. This programming is being implemented right now, and the result of major implementation will be hashgraph.

Hashgraph will ultimately be centralization for those who want it, and decentralization for those who don't, and every conceivable level of centralization/decentralization between the two. With hashgraph, people will have to decide how much centralization and how much privacy/freedom they want, and then act accordingly.

The next question to ask is, is there any benefit to centralization?

The hashgraph will dethrone blockchain instantly. The blockchain now becomes obsolete and hashgraph will be the new technology that uses consensus mathematical algorith. Hashgraph is more fair, speed and secure than block, I think it will be the greatest challenge to blockchain technology. I hope bitcoin will adapt hashgraph technology because some said that it needs to  develop their blockchain.

Hashgraph The Future of Decentralized Technology





Hashgraph The Future of Decentralized Technology

Hashgraph is data structure and consensus algorithm that is:

Fast: With a very high throughput and low consensus latency

Secure: Asynchronous Byzantine fault tolerant

Fair: Fairness of access, ordering, and timestamps

These properties enable new decentralized applications such as a stock market, improved collaborative applications, games, and auctions.
