    This episode of the DIVI Crypto Podcast we are talking with Tyler Benster, Technology Adoption Lead, and Dan Wiggins, Head of Gaming at Kadena. The Kadena ecosystem provides the security of Bitcoin, virtually free gas, unparalleled throughput, and smarter contracts. The safer smart contracts are effortless, no matter if this is your first smart contract, or if you have been creating multiple smart contracts. Pact automatically detects bugs, freeing contract writers from exploits on Ethereum and other unsafe platforms. Kadena offers marginal transaction fees for consumers, and have introduced a crypto gas station to allow businesses to eliminate all transaction fees for their customers, removing a huge barrier to mass adoption of dApps. Kadena's energy use stays constant, even as network demand grows. Kadena's architecture makes it the only platform capable of delivering increased energy efficiency as Transactions Per Second (TPS) increases. In order to solve for the security and throughput demands of financial services clients, Kadena uses Proof of Work, which is reliable, secure, and time-tested. Kadena is designed to power global financial systems, with the protocol continually scaling to higher TPS as additional chains are added to the network. Pact can allow for unfragmented liquidity pools supporting special bonuses and cash flows across exchanges, along with Serial and Fractional NFTs on Marmalade, without the need to be locked behind a single marketplace. Ethereum Virtual Machine platforms require even the simplest contracts to include lines of unintelligent copy-pasted code, hampering multi-chain interop. Pact was fashioned for interop, permitting a single PolyFungible NFT ledger to service the entire market. Kadena builders leverage trustless, decentralized, cross-chain transfers. Soon, being secured by KDA bonding, and powered by Kadena's Chain Relay Bridge, users will be able to have transactions occur seamlessly across Ethereum, Celo, and Terra. Bonders can participate by bonding the full amount on-platform and operating the relay software when launched, or working with delegation services. Bonds are fixed at 50,000 KDA. Initial participants can earn up to 30% APY with a 5 KDA activity fee, with the bond being locked up for 30 days. Afterwards, bonders can receive rewards by renewing the bond for another 30-day period, or by unbonding after a 20-day cooldown period. Pact is governed at the code level, account management level, and setting strategic direction for key community initiatives. The upcoming Kadena DAO will let the community fund new developer initiatives.

    In today's episode of the DIVI Crypto Podcast, we are talking with Chad Barraford, the Technical lead at THORChain. THORChain's mission is to decentralize cryptocurrency liquidity via THORNodes and ecosystem products. The access to the native and cross-chain liquidity is open to anyone. Rune powers the THORChain ecosystem, providing the economic incentives required to secure the network. Rune aims for Deterministic Value. With this in mind, if more than 80% of circulating RUNE is locked in THORChain liquidity pools, via economical design RUNE's market cap should be a minimum 3 times the value of all non-RUNE assets locked into THORChain liquidity pools. BTC, ETH, BNB, BCH, LTC are currently supported on THORChain. Initially, RUNE was issued on BNB chain, so most liquidity for RUNE on exchanges as BNB.RUNE. ETH.RUNE was issued in order to provision liquidity on Sushi Swap. Native THOR.RUNE is issued on its own chain, and users who my have BNB.RUNE or ETH.RUNE can convert them to native THOR.RUNE via THORChain interfaces. In order to participate in THORChain liquidity pools, one must use the native THOR.RUNE. One may be able to enter liquidity pooling positions only with BTC, ETH, BNB, LTC or BCH. In these circumstances, the network automatically sells 50% of these assets for THOR.RUNE. Upon withdrawal, the interface will also sell the THOR.RUNE back into the original asset. THORChain is a decentralized cross-chain liquidity protocol based on Tendermint and Cosmos-SDK, utilizing Threshold Signature Scemes. THORChain does not wrap nor peg assets. Instead, it decides how= to move them in response to user actions. THORChain observes user deposits to vaults, executes business logic, and processes outbound transactions, ensuring the entire process is byzantine-fault-tolerant. A key objective of THORChain is to resist centralization and capture, while also allowing for cross-chain liquidity. THORChain only secures the assets in its vaults, providing economic guarantees that the assets are safe. There are four key roles in the system: Liquidity providers that add liquidity to pools, to earn fees and rewards Swappers using the liquidity to swap assets ad-hoc, paying fees Traders monitor pools and rebalance continually, paying fees but with the intent to earn a profit. Node Operators provide a bond and are paid to secure the system The design goal of THORChain is for anyone to join the network with the required funds, being permissionless, and to be anonymous, yet still be secure. The high-churn network ensures that it is censorship-resistant, evades capture, and resists centralization.

We launched the first community--Synthetic Futures--dedicated to ethical synthetic media and the future of reality created with machines. We are also world leaders in creating AI generated content that looks real, building software to automate AI content creation, and work with the world's most innovative creators on impossible projects. The mission of Metaphysic is to endow people by putting them at the center of the engulfing content economies that will set the foundation for how we use the internet in the future. In building AI content generation tools and infrastructure to allow users to own and control their biometric data, Metaphysic builds towards an ethical web3 economy in which each internet user can access the limitless potential of the hyperreal metaverse. Synthetic media is the catch-all term for the quickly enlarging universe of digital objects and experiences created with positioning from artificial intelligence. Hyperreal are videos that are very realistic and often difficult to tell apart from digital content captured on cameras. Over the last few decades, the cost of for computer power has dropped, over half of the people on the planet have come online, the use of artificial intelligence in phones, cars, gadgets, and video games is now a commonplace, and breakthroughs in the evolution of AR and VR have made these technologies readily available to the general population. Metaphysic is building the AI technologies for avatars, NFTs, Hollywood movies, as well as innovative advertising. These technologies assist creators and companies move to generate hyperreal experiences and identities that people will be able to love and deeply connect with. The metaverse is often tied to the terms VR and AR, as these technologies permit users to fully immerse themselves in a 3D environment, where users interact with each other, play games, and build communities. Despite this, many still interact in a 2D environment. Despite much of this progress, it will take time for 3D engines, internet bandwidth, computer resources, along with consumer hardware to be able to emulate a world like in the film “Ready Player One.” It should also be noted that monumental effort is needed to establish ethical, legal, and economic norms to ensure that the livelihoods, privacy, and online experience of creators and users are protected from abuse.

    In this episode of The DIVI Crypto Podcast, we are talking with Al Morris of Koii Network. Koii Nodes are written 100% in JavaScript and can use any existing NPM modules. Many blockchain nodes only serve a single network, requiring custom hardware. Koii, however, is lightweight enough to run on personal devices like phones and tablets, and the first network to achieve scalable generalized consensus. Koii's Layer-N network achieves this with no need for its own blockchain— it uses all of them. Each Koii node runs ‘Tasks,' having their own rewards and penalties for misbehavior. These Tasks run asynchronously and can include writing to one or many blockchains. Koii nodes are cross-chain compatible by design. Ethereum and Arweave are live. Avalanche, Polygon, Solana, and Filecoin are in progress, with more on the way. Koii stands for Knowledgeable, Open, and Infinite Internet, and is a protocol focused on bringing real decentralization to all dApps in the Web3 space. All requests to the network are written in JavaScript, allowing for any app to easily become a dApp. Koii easily integrates with Arweave and IPFS for fully decentralized storage as well. Finnie is Koii's browser extension wallet. Features include: Drag & Drop NFT creation Share NFTs to earn attention rewards 1-click cross-chain bridging Decentralized ID (DID) to link cross-chain keys together DID profile that includes personalized links to user pages NFT gallery: users see all their NFTs, from multiple chains and keys, in one place Easy NFT collections It takes less than a minute to create an NFT and costs as little as one cent, uploading images to videos to PDF files. All things are stored on-chain and have ownership and state properties. These can be used to make a range of products, like Koii DIDs. The network distributes KOII tokens to all the content that received attention within the previous 24 hours. The amount of tokens a wallet receives depends on the proportion of attention its content receives compared to all of the attention in the network. In the start, there will be 10 billion KOII tokens. Afterwards, an additional 1 million KOII will be minted per day and distributed across the KOII network. The Koii-X Templates have been designed to support a number of wallets out of the box: - Finie Wallet: ECDSA, RSA ~ Ethereum, Arweave - Meta Mask: Ethereum and Polygon - ArConnect: Arweave Payment networks currently include Bitcoin, Ethereum, and Arweave, with more being worked on.

    Proprietary Trading Systems with Bryan Hernandez

    In today's episode of The DIVI Crypto Podcast, we are talking with Bryan Hernandez, President, and Co-founder of Structure. Structure is a global platform that allows for mainstream investors to seamlessly participate in DeFi and crypto markets without the traditional educational and financial barriers. Co-founder Brian Sun built similar platforms for high frequency trading companies. Both founders enjoy building proprietary trading systems. The downside of proprietary is that it generally doesn't benefit anyone else. It was build out of the necessity of managing portfolios and related problems. One of the early concerns was that the investing ecosystems are fragmented and segregated. From the investor's perspective, no matter if it's crypto, ETFs, or whatever, they are all assets. There was no unified experience. For example, if one has assets on a crypto exchange, and there was the need to move into stocks, there was no simple and unified platform for such opportunities. We spent a lot of time trying to figure out how to place the various asset classes under one platform so that the experience wouldn't be fragmented, as it now is. This is accomplished by tokenizing the assets that are not traditionally tokenized. This creates the opportunity for all assets to be treated similarly. There are two important characteristics of a token that are new and will change how people behave with their assets. The first is that they are naturally fractionalized. You do not have to send an entire bitcoin, but a fraction of a bitcoin. A good example of tokenization are stable coins, where the asset is held in trust, and a person is given a token representing that asset. In order to address the various regulatory landscapes of the various nations, one focus is on the common themes of these regulations, as applicable. Most of the regulations include Know Your Customer and Anti-Money Laundering. This sets the boundaries for the platforms that will and will not be built. We won't develop a product that is completely anonymous, by behaving as a business that behaves and cooperates with regulations and governments. The go-to market will be the emerging markets that have fewer options. As the firm grows, it will enter into developed markets, where the amount of regulations required to be compliant is higher. The management of these assets are custodial. These assets can best be described as being wrapped. Thus, if there's an asset that currently doesn't have a token, Structure will buy the asset, and issue the token, with the reverse being used to sell it.

    In this episode of The DIVI Crypto Podcast we are talking with Alex Smirnov deBridge Finance. deBridge is to be a decentralized regulation for cross-chain interoperability and liquidity transfers. When using deBridge, one can scale up their protocol, bridge various arbitrary assets, along with building new cross-chain interoperability applications atop a decentralized infrastructure. It is possible, with deBridge, to pass capricious information or transaction data to be executed on the specific blockchain, execute cross-chain calls from smart contracts, and make cross-chain rules and applications that haven't been done in the past. Now, one no longer has to look for a specific bridge for each specific blockchain. The unified standard of deBridge allows for cross-chain transfers and swaps between various blockchains from one UI. Slashing and delegated staking performances enforce that all deBridge validators are financially accountable for fault-tolerance validation and sending of cross-chain transactions. Users do not need to face the risk of funds being stuck, as the delays will put validators' collateral under the risk of slashing. Those who create protocols can connect components in, permitting exchanging of arbitrary information for smart contracts between different blockchain networks. The problem of liquidity fragmentation will be overcome by deBridge, as the liquidity in all blockchain ecosystems is at arm's length. Smart contracts and users can interact with any protocol directly from any blockchain. Integrating deBridge into existing applications permits new user experiences. Users aren't required to manually switch networks in their wallets, as the transaction is signed in one blockchain and immediately executed by keepers on another blockchain. For NFTs, deBridge will: Bridge NFTs between blockchains Buy and sell users game assets on multiple NFT marketplaces directly from game interfaces Make the assets interoperable on the various Metaverses Build cross-chain applications and characteristics for NFTs and digital assets The protocol fee structure of deBridge is split between the protocol fee and the execution fee. The execution fee acts as a reward recommended to keepers for the execution of the transaction in the target chain. In addition, users pay a small protocol fee on each transaction performed on deBridge. Protocol fees are for the decentralization of the protocol, for deBridge validators who are financially accountable for proper operations of the deBridge protocol, via slashing and delegated staking mechanisms. Remember that deBridge is an interface, and that some blocks have longer confirmations, and that some slippage is expected to happen in the course of transactions.

    In this episode of The DIVI Crypto Podcast we are talking with Arie Trouw, CEO of XY Labs and Co-Founder of XYO. XYO is a technology rule made to improve the validity, certainty, and value of data. XYO is creating a data marketplace to provide users a gold-standard for any apps, websites, and blockchain technologies relying on trusted data. XYO is to be the world's first Reality Oracle, serving as a bridge between our physical world and blockchain data. XYO will ensure people's data they create, improving certainty, as well as trust for the data. Sentinels, Bridges, Archivists, and Diviners are the components of the XYO Network. They allow for a fully decentralized network that combines cryptographic security and real-world data. Sentinels serve as the eyes and ears of the XYO Network. When Sentinels are near other sentinels, they broadcast that they are near each other, with this interaction as proof of the sentinel's location, referred to as a bound witness. Bridge nodes looks for sentinel interactions, which it then signs off on it, sending it to the archivist, continuing the proof of origin chain. All interactions are stored on archivists. An archivist then provide data to a Diviner, allowing it to successfully complete a query. Archivists can either cover a small, private collection of Sentinel data, or all bound witness interactions for all the network. Archivists can be distributed or decentralized based on implementation and stored data needs. Lastly, a Diviner answers questions using bound witness data. The question that relates to location, like “Did this activity occur at this location?” The Diviner asks the Archivist or a Bridge for the data required for an answer. Proof of Origin verifies that ledgers containing location data flowing into the XYO Network are valid. The flaw of a unique ID is that it can be spoofed, while private key signing isn't practical as most of the XYO Network are difficult or impossible to physically secure, meaning bad actors can steal the private keys. XYO uses Transient Key Chaining. It's impossible to falsify the chain of origin for data. This key chaining comes from the Bridge to the Archivist and then to the Diviner. XYO proposes a trustless, cryptographic location network with a formulation that uses on chain of zero-knowledge proofs in order to establish a high degree of data certainty on location information. The XY oracle network enables layered, location verification across many device classes and protocols.

As blockchain usage increases, problems become more prominent. Cybercriminals, in the first part of 2019, stole an estimated $4.26 billion of virtual coins in a series of thefts, scams, and frauds. Exchanges, wallets, and various cryptocurrency custody services face an every-growing battle as hacking techniques likewise continue to grow. Despite users need to authorize each transaction with a private key, they happen. Many options designed to protect owners, instead provide attackers with multiple opportunities to steal assets. Exchanges, in particular, are frequently targeted by threat groups, because the exchanges create private keys without any involvement from their users. Wallets that are connected to the web mean that these hot wallets can never be fully protected. Thus, the most secure option is cold wallets. Ngrave is a backup turned into a cryptographic puzzle. Liquid is the mobile app, providing real-time connection to blockchain. Using Liquid, you can sync wallets with one-way QR codes, without risking the exposure of your private keys.

Alien Worlds is an NFT Metaverse where you can play with unique NFT digital items. Players stake Trilium to Planet DAOs to vote in the upcoming Planetary elections. This is also how to increase the Planet's reward pool. You can enter into weekly elections for council candidates, offer ideas on how to administer the planetary treasury, or even to run for planetary council yourself. You can pick NFT game cards for your strategy on Binance Smart Chain (BSC) and WAX, to be used for mining, fighting, and missions. Lastly, teleportation TLM is how to bridge BSC, WAX, and Ethereum. Trilium is the cross chain ERC-20 / BEP-20 / WAX fungible token that connects Alien Worlds, permitting the transfer of value and voting in Planet DAOs. Users earn Trilium in the mining game and stake Trilium to a Planet DAO, allowing them to vote in that Planet's elections. To summarize the in game story, The Federation, the most advanced bitcoin mining company of the future, notes a pattern in its algorithmic solutions. An advanced alien race was sending messages through bitcoin mining algorithms. What the messages reveal is a wormhole to allow humans to travel to far flung exoPlanets. Alien Worlds is a decentralized metaverse running on the Ethereum, WAX and Binance Smart Chain blockchains. Trilium incentivizes users to play games and must be staked by users to partake in governance. Planets inside the metaverse are decentralized, autonomous organizations that gain daily Trilium from the central metaverse smart contracts. Planets are how the blockchain communities can get onto Alien Worlds, get their own token and DAO, present games and services into the ecosystem, and mint and use NFTs. Explorers become a voting member of a Planet once they are staking Trilium to that Planet. They can then stake Trilium to an infinite number of Planets. Upon the staking of Trilium to a particular Planet by sending Trilium to a contract address, the contract sends a token for that Planet back to the user. The Planet DAO's token has an equivalent quantity of Trilium staked. A Planetary DAO's tokens can be exchanged back 1:1 into Trilium at any time, by smart contract.

The Simba Chain Platform auto-generates virtual REST APIs for smart contracts to easily integrate into clients' applications. Simba makes connecting to Blockchain as easy as MuleSoft does for enterprise systems, or as a Web API does for services or infrastructure. Simba offers a Smart Contract Designer (SCD) tool, allowing users to build smart contracts via a simple drag and drop UI. Users can stipulate data relationships of their digital assets and smart contracts, and the passage of said assets, even various versions of the smart contract, or allowing for the linking contracts on different chains together. Current supported chains are Ethereum, Quorum, Stellar, RSK, Binance, Avalanche, Hyperledger Fabric, Hyperledger Burrow, and Hyperledger Sawtooth. SIMBA QuickStart auto-generates Representational State Transfer (REST) APIs allow for access to smart contract methods that interact on the blockchain ledger and provides admittance control groups for reading or writing. Each of the API endpoints permit multiple data files to be connected and stored off-chain in a data store. Data comes into the platform as multipart attachments to the REST endpoints. They are then checked for access before being sent to the data bundling system. The bundling algorithm holds all files and makes hashcodes for assemblage into a manifest file. This is stored in the data store, with the hashcode enchained on the blockchain to vouch for the wholeness of the data placed into the platform. Simba is decentralized. This means that there is no single point of control, thus there is no single point of failure. It is immutable, and once data is stored, it can't be tampered with, altered, or deleted.

Shrapnel is a specialized team of designers, producers, artists, and programmers operating at the center of games, television, movies, and graphic novels. Collectively, the team behind Shrapnel has produced some of the largest franchises in entertainment, including HALO, Call of Duty, Westworld, and many more. The team behind Shrapnel has raised $10.5 million to build the blockchain-based first-person shooter game that will be a triple-A production. The round was led by Griffin Gaming Partners, along with Polychain Capital and Forte. In addition to funding, Forte is providing Shrapnel technical support to the project. Shrapnel will bring the highest production values to making a game with blockchain and technology. In market research, Shrapnel saw that players really want to own their own digital items. By tapping into partners' technical expertise, Shrapnel will bring to life a game and mod platform that has been under development for years. Shrapnel is a project of the Neon team, which has its own roots in HBO Interactive, having years of business experience in transmedia, virtual production, and gaming-as-a service. Neon's mission is to make the most riveting gaming experience in the crypto space to date. Crypto assets and bonus structures will virtually change how gamers play, with Shrapnel pushing the envelope with what's possible in the crypto gaming industry, incorporating the industry into a profound triple-A-style FPS experience. Why are NFTs in gaming are so important? Previously, the players never really owned what they bought. It's all secured inside the game. Surveys have indicated that players would be excited to own what they're buying outside of the game environment. Some of what is being worked on is offloading the difficult tasks so that players don't need to be concerned with issues like regulatory compliance or figuring out how to create crypto wallets. In addition, the idea is to create an extraction game that players can alter to their fullest desires. This platform will allow these users to build mods in order to create different versions of the game, with a range of blockchain and deep tech experts to support the architectural and design needs of Shrapnel.

    In this episode of The DIVI Crypto Podcast, we are talking with Ivan Ravlich, Co-founder and CEO of Hypernet Labs. The Hypent Protocol provides simple to use, easy to integrate, non-custodial decentralized protocol for digital identity, and scalable token agnostic payments. Hypernet Labs believes that: the world economy will be changed by blockchain technology; cryptocurrency transactions for goods and services should feel familiar and simple; developers shouldn't need web 3.0 experience to incorporate crypto payments into their products; and consumers and merchants should have the option to choose their transaction currencies irrespective of the base chain. The Hypernet.ID is a frictionless and auditable method for authenticating and identifying customers on-chain. Users can use their NFT to affirm their identity on any supported dApp project. The Hypernet.ID can take only minutes to create, and seconds to use. Hypernet.ID mints the NFT on the blockchain and can be used directly with the smart contracts of any dApp. Galileo demonstrates how crypto payments can coexist with other payment options in a traditional payment system. Other than choosing Hypernet as the payment method, it's as easy as paying with a credit card. The time on software and hardware can be purchased using crypto currencies. Marketplace vendors of both hardware and software can be paid via crypto. These elements allow merchants to securely accept cryptocurrency payments in their online platforms with little code intrusion and without needing knowledge of Web3 technology and digital assets, and complies with various regulations regarding electronic funds transfer. A key aspect of the Hypernet Protocol is digital identity. The main recognition data structure of the Hypernet Protocol is the Non-Fungible Registry (NFR); instances of which are deployed through the registry factory contract. Every new NFR stores its state in a proxy layer, and calls to that proxy layer are designated to an implementation contract distributed by all copies of the primary beacon implementation. Non-Fungible Registries are a multi-purpose extension of the EIP721 non-fungible token (NFT) standard and have all of the methods specified by the base standard specification. All roles are implemented through the NFR constructor/initializer, and it is called by the registry factory. Each NFR can grow its registration logic, along with adding novel functionality, with the use of external modules. A module is a stateless external contract, which can become the REGISTRAR_ROLE, extending an NFR's capability in an algorithmic way. Hypernet NFR employs a native mechanism for registration by sending an EIP20-compatible token to the registry. By default, the feature is disabled, but the REGISTRAR_ROLE can set the registration token to an address of an EIP20-compatible token to then enable the feature. https://hypernetlabs.io/ https://www.facebook.com/GoHypernet/ https://twitter.com/gohypernet https://hypernet.medium.com/ https://github.com/GoHypernet/hypernet-protocol -- DIVI is creating the world's first closed-loop, vertically-integrated cryptocurrency ecosystem.

    Earning Interest-Bearing ERC20 eTokens with Michael Bentley

    In this episode of The DIVI Crypto Podcast, we are talking with Michael Bentley, CEO and Co-Founder of Euler. Euler is a non-custodial protocol on Ethereum that allows users to lend and borrow almost any crypto asset. Euler is a platform that allows users to determine which assets are listed. In order to do this, Euler uses Uniswap v3 as a core dependency. If an asset has a WETH pair on Uniswap v3, it can be included in a lending market on Euler by anyone. Permissionless listing is riskier on decentralized lending protocols than on other DeFi protocols, like decentralized exchanges, with the potential for risk to spill over from one pool to another in quick succession. To offset these obstacles, Euler uses risk-based asset tiers to keep the protocol and its users safe. Isolation-tier assets are open for lending and borrowing, but cannot be used for collateral to borrow other assets, and they can only be borrowed in isolation. Cross-tier assets are for standard lending and borrowing, but can't be used as collateral to borrow other assets, but may be borrowed alongside other assets. Collateral-tier assets are available for ordinary lending and borrowing, cross-borrowing, and they can be used as collateral. EUL hodlers can vote to move assets from the isolation-tier and promote them to the cross-tier or collateral-tier via governance mechanisms. When lenders deposit into a liquidity to an Euler pool, they earn interest-bearing ERC20 eTokens, to be redeemed for their share of the underlying assets in the pool at any time, provided there are unborrowed tokens in the pool. Borrowers take liquidity from a pool and return it with interest. By doing so, the total assets in the pool grow. This way, lenders earn interest on assets they supply, because their Tokens can be redeemed for an increasing amount of the underlying asset. Rather than providing non-standard ways of transferring debts, Euler uses the standard transfer and approve ERC20 methods. However, the logic is reversed. Instead of being able to send tokens to anyone, but requiring approval to take them, dTokens can be taken by anyone, but require approval to accept them. Euler permits collateral to be deposited, but is not available for lending. The collateral is “protected.” It earns the user no interest, but is free of risks of borrowers defaulting, has the option to be withdrawn instantly, as well as helps protect against borrowers using tokens to influence governance decisions. Euler doesn't have a native concept of flash loans. With Euler, one can defer their liquidity check, make an uncollateralised borrow, perform whatever operation they like, and then repay the borrow. This can be used to rebalance positions, build-up leveraged positions, take advantage of external arbitrage opportunities, and more. https://www.euler.finance https://twitter.com/eulerfinance https://discord.gg/CdG97VSYGk https://t.me/eulerfinance_official https://www.linkedin.com/company/euler-xyz -- DIVI is creating the world's first closed-loop, vertically-integrated cryptocurrency ecosystem.

    Regulated by Coding with Christian Kameir

    Today on the DIVI Crypto Podcast we interview Christian Kameir of Sustany Capital. Central Bank Digital Currencies (CBDC) is one of the biggest news items in crypto. The idea is that the new technology will make cryptos obsolete for the majority of people, as it uses central banks to issue currency. It's supposed to be safe, secure, stable, and provide reliability people expect from the banking industry. There is also the ideas to “bank the unbanked,” and allow for cross-border payments. Upon reading many of the white papers, it can be noted that these are highly focused on research. Many have noted that if payments can be instant via crypto, then why would there be a need for middlemen. The more middlemen involved, the more expensive the transactions become. Policies that they have then resulted in additional delays. Every time there are headlines about regulating block chain, stable coins, etc, it becomes mainly propaganda. They are regulated by their coding. Governments don't regulate technology, but the behavior of people inside their jurisdictions. Instead of phrasing it like we'll protect investors, but limit what citizens can do with this technology, and the responses to the regulations are different. Many CBDC papers have references to stable coins. However, in various hearings, there is little to no discussions upon how regulation entities don't get to regulate technology. The question becomes: “Do you want to regulate the behavior of people to where they can't partake in new technologies, and decide for themselves as to if they wish to participate?” Many dollar transactions are in digital form, as opposed to the moving of physical dollars. Dollars are in databases tied to the banking industry, with the licenses to do so. Cryptos aren't tethered to a database, and sub-servant to financial licenses. Thus, the main difference is the bytes of data that are controlled by databases, or bytes controlled by universal computers that everyone has free access to, and can freely engage with at will. One of the problems with regulations becomes the loss of purchasing power: more middlemen equals more fees, so that the costs to buy are increased. Another issue becomes surveillance. Within our expertise, we've approached by NGOs for our expertise in supporting people who live under authoritarian regimes. They help dissidents being processed by their governments by transferring value and information. If technology can be used by such a government to persecute dissidents, not only should they not use it, but no one should use it. When this surveillance is built into digital value exchange systems, one is actively harming and endangering the people of the world. http://sustany.vc http://kameir.com

    In this episode of The DIVI Crypto Podcast, we talk with Armand Saramout, of Sonar Moji. Sonar uses Web3, via Mojis, to take the collection of playable 3D avatars, and brings them to life. These Mojis can make friends through voice and text, emote, and create worlds with emojis. Sonar can be considered a Metaverse in your pocket. The Mojis on Sonar are made up of a body, a mouth, eyes, and accessories. Each of these Mojis are provided with a gem to represent the rarity of its combined parts. These are, from Diamond, Ruby, Sapphire, Emerald, Amethyst, and Quartz. Currently, for the Apple i-Store, you can download Sonar and create entire worlds. This includes: Use emojis Make friends through voice and text Emote Go to a bar Amass a fortune Fall in love And explore the endless possibilities available to you in Sonar The journey for Sonar began in Beta, where the world-class social game where you can build spaces and meet others began. Users have 3D emoji NFTs that come alive in Sonar, and can equip various items for their Moji. Sonar also has plans for Moji Town, a huge server in Sonar for Moji, where they can buy and sell land. Moji will also feature pets, that can you can breed for your Moji. The goal is to create virtual communities, where people can make friends with people they would not otherwise have the chance for offline. People are learning that these virtual worlds can be surprisingly immersive. Sonar takes this to the next level. While it's still 2D, flat, and can be used with one hand, you can move around on a grid, having different conversations in different settings. With Sonar, you speak via an avatar, as opposed to speaking via video. This can allow users a certain degree of anonymity, and you can become a show, being more than who you are. The biggest audience has been “Gen Z.” Sonar will become more than just another chat app. There will be more than just spaces. Sonar will create destinations and experiences, parties; a true multi-user experience. Another idea is for users to create their own NFTs, so that they will be able to enter these experiences on Sonar. This, in turn, will help users come to appreciate the value of Web3. Instead of building the existing Web3 community, but introduce new people to the value of Web3.

    On this episode of The DIVI Crypto Podcast, we are talking with Jorge Pesok, general counsel and chief compliance officer for legal-first crypto software company Tacen Inc. Tacen is a legal-first non-custodial exchange. Tacen believes that centralized exchanges are too risky, whereas decentralized exchanges are too slow. The alternative is institutional-grade speed combined with complete sovereignty of your assets. Tacen's non-custodial wallets allows only the user to control their funds, with the smart contracts subject to hardy security audits and are non-upgradable. Tacen doesn't hold user funds. All trades are completed Peer to Peer. As a result, your money stays safe, because the exchange never has access to it. The exchange implements central exchange's high performance order management with protection and privacy of decentralized exchanges. Traders do not need to be concerned with having their personal data stolen when trading on Tacen. All one has to do is link their wallet to begin buying and selling. The architecture is to fully comply with the applicable regulations, such as those of the SEC, FinCEN, and CFTC. In addition to the exchange, Tacen offers a token launch platform. This is a suite of tools to guide firms that are interested in launching their own tokens and to be compliant with regulations. SDK's will be integrated with any crypto wallet, dApp, or even traditional applications. This shall allow users to swap their tokens with a minimal amount of friction. Tacen also is engaged in advanced talks with multiple NFT projects to connect our technology and ecosystem. The Tacen Exchange is blockchain agnostic. It will rely on decentralized networks of oracles that will run on DFINITY's Internet Computer. This will allow for the tracking and providing trade data for our unparalleled coordinated settlement process. We researched many of the options to cross-chain settlement. This included interoperability layers like Cosmos, as well as pure oracle-based solutions. Finally, the team at Tacen settled on using DFINITY's Internet Computer for one of the oracle's immutable data storage layers. Tacen has chosen three redundant systems for data storage solutions. First is a buffered, local cache on the Settlement Data Oracles (SDO) to handle high volumes of incoming data. Information is then compressed and both written to DFINITY's Internet Computer, along with Hedera's fair-ordered message queue, to serve as a fallback data logging source. The goal is for a global network made up of thousands of SDOs maintaining hundreds of settlements simultaneously. Then, trades are publicized and stored by the SDOs, before they are compressed and written to the Internet Computer consuming cycles.

Domination Finance is The world's first DEX for dominance trading. Domination Finance is live on both the Ethereum and Polygon Networks. Domination Finance is a non-custodial financial instrument and Decentralized Exchange, allowing traders to trade dominance pairs or earn trading fees by providing liquidity to Domination Finance. The top pair is Bitcoin Dominance (BTCDOM). Bitcoin Dominance is one of the most utilized signals in the market, showing Bitcoin's share of the total cryptocurrency industry. With Domination Finance, one no longer uses dominance as a tool for their trading. Now, a trader can take a position on the decentralized exchange and long or short not only Bitcoin Dominance, but other dominance pairs as well, such as Ethereum Dominance (ETHDOM), and Tether Dominance (USDTDOM). Bitcoin Dominance can be defined as Bitcoin's share of the total cryptocurrency market cap, calculated as a percentage. This is useful as an indicator of times when Bitcoin will either outperform or under perform the wider cryptocurrency market. In turn, this may help investors in evaluating whether to increase or decrease their altcoin exposure. AltCoins are collectively any cryptocurrency that is not Bitcoin. These include Ethereum, LiteCoin, Doge, Monero, and stablecoins like DAI, Tether, USD Con, True USD, etc. Users earn a percentage of the trading fees earned via providing liquidity on UniSwap. At this time, only USDC can be used to add liquidity on Domination Finance. Domination Finance is compatible with MetaMask and Web3 wallets supported by WalletConnect. DomFi's intuitive design is easy for traders to decide on a particular asset's market dominance. A trader can decide, with the click of a button, if they feel Bitcoin Dominance (BTCDOM) will go up, with the green LONG button. Users will then be prompted to buy BTCDOM tokens with either USDC or ETH. Alternatively, if they feel that Bitcoin Dominance will drop, they can click the red SHORT button. Traders will then be redirected to purchase invBTCDOM tokens. Liquidity providers aid others to execute their trades. A 0.3% fee is distributed pro rata to all LPs in the pool. The dominance pair has two corresponding liquidity pools: BTCDOM / USDC invBTCDOM / USDC Users add liquidity to the pools by depositing USDC. The supplied USDC will be used to mint and pool an equal number of BTCDOM and invBTCDOM tokens. BTCDOM and invBTCDOM tokens are minted by supplying USDC collateral. In turn, USDC can be unlocked by redeeming BTCDOM and/or invBTCDOM tokens.

Now, there are huge custodial and DeFi plays happening. The different perspectives are leading to the maturity of the crypto industry. With the restructuring of not only the personnel of DIVI, but the legal framework, in order to be fully decentralized, to look good from a legal perspective, to be positioned for a Series A, and to start the larger partnerships, allowing for access to opportunities that had previously been out of reach. The DIVI wallet launched earlier in 2021, allowing for staking with just one DIVI from your cell phone. With more staking, DIVI is close to one billion coins. Upcoming features in 2022 include fiat on-ramp and crypto swaps. Crypto swaps will be a prerequisite for the DeFi initiative, swapping tokens in the wallet itself. With the rise of NFT projects, Crypto MoonBoys, and Darren Cullen, who is also behind Graffiti Kings. While he started out with graffiti as vandalism, he now devotes a lot of resources to helping kids in need get into various arts and crafts. There are a number of funds taking interest in Play To Earn, which has some subtle differences from Play And Earn. The collectible art toy world is crossing over into the Metaverse, with games being a natural part of it. This is just the start of the dominance of NFTs. With the Metaverse rising, not only will users be able to share text, as well as audio and video, but will be able to feel. The Sandbox may be a winner in the MetaVerse, and an ongoing virtual meetup, Sandstorm, is held for The Sandbox. Sandstorm aims to help promote the various unsung heroes who may not receive as much coverage. With the high gas on the Ethereum Blockchain, some are looking at Wax as an alternative for NFTs. Part of the problem on Ethereum is the Miner Extracted Value, where miners can front-run transactions, as well as use sandwich attacks, and steal the profits for themselves, or otherwise manipulate transactions. In many instances, the gas prices alone can raise the overall cost of a transaction by two or even three times. For example, a $100 NFT had a gas fee of $250. In order to address gas fees, alternatives like L2 or side-chains, like Polygon, are growing in demand.
