Thumbnail Photo by Karl Greif from Karl Greif Video www.karlgreifvideo.com According to The U.S. Department of Transportation (U.S. DOT), blockchain can be used to streamline drone deliveries of essential and important items, such as organs. The institution published an information-exchange document on 15th of April 2020, to communicate their findings and thoughts with the public and begin a discussion about blockchain and drone fleet management.

MinerGate DSP Portal. Essential elements of decreasing the cost of developing DApp — Official MinerGate Blog

by MinerGate Mining Pool June, 14, 2019 For just a year, the EOS system has proved itself to be worthy of being a next-generation blockchain project with industry-leading scalability and transaction speed. Its philosophy and solutions are giving new opportunities to blockchain developers. Lots of dApps – a crucial part of the system – are now built on EOS. The number has been growing with time; according to DappRadar, 18% of dApps are built on EOS, yet obstacles to implementation still remain. There are two known reasons why the potential of this scalable and efficient blockchain system cannot be f...

Lead-up to BTC halving excites investors, brief mempool overload, exchanges barely holding on

BTC saw an unusual spike in activity yesterday, April 29th. In the past, 24 hours Bitcoin has risen up by 18.66%, the mempool was briefly overloaded, and some exchanges were barely keeping up with the activity.  Let’s start with the price. But before that, I just want to let you know that this is not financial advice, I’m not even a professional trader. I’m just a guy that’s invested 3+ years of his life writing about crypto and blockchain tech. If you ask Billy, yes, suddenly after all of the “blows to Bitcoin” the time for Bitcoin is nigh. Forbes is saying yes it’s going to $10k, Coinbase’s Daniel Cawrey says it’s FOMO time. I mean, it’s crazy, but this is what the news should look like if you ask Forbes. We also say that it looks like BTC is going to break $10,000. ...

Make CPU Mining Great Again — Official MinerGate Blog

by MinerGate Mining Pool February, 15, 2020 Monero (XMR) has successfully hardforked on November 30th, at block number 1978433. The fork has changed the CryptoNightR mining algorithm to the new RandomX Proof-of-Work algorithm.   Although the main aim of the upgrade was keeping Monero completely resistant to ASIC mining, thus maintaining the coin decentralized, RandomX has essentially moved XMR mining to CPU, which is no less important. What is the hard fork about? Being one of the top cryptocurrencies by market capitalization, Monero for sure is one of the most popular coins at the moment, not leas...

US Court Freezes Assets Linked to Alleged $9M ICO Scam

A federal court has frozen all funds raised in a $9 million token sale the Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) has accused of being fraudulent. In a filing earlier this month, the U.S. District Court sitting in Austin, Texas, froze the assets of the individuals and entities believed to have received funds from the Meta 1 Coin initial coin offering (ICO). The court agreed with the SEC that the “Warner relief defendants” — Wanda Ironheart Traversie-Warner (“Traversie”), Alfred Dewitt Warner Jr. (“Warner”) and Ironheart Trust (“Ironheart”) — would try to “dissipate, conceal or transfer assets,” including by sending them offshore, unless the assets were frozen. The ruling, dated May 14, encompasses all the fiat currencies and cryptocurrencies linked to the Meta 1 Coin sale. The Warner ...
