Cardano Tangem Cards

Tangem is a new smart card technology that allows users to store and carry cryptocurrencies on physical plastic cards with a chip and NFC antenna inside. It was developed based on technology from Samsung and Arm (SoftBank), with the security and correctness audited by the Kudelski Group, a listed Swiss security company. Cardano Foundation recently announced that they will be presenting a Cardano-branded Tangem card to every attendee at the IOHK Summit and to our global community if you join us for the Summit keynote speech!

IOHK's Haskell Course in Ethiopia

IOHK recently finished teaching a Haskell programming course in Ethiopia, Africa. The program was taught by Lars Brünjes, director of education, Polina Vinogradova, formal methods expert and Philip Wadler, senior research fellow of IOHK. This course was in conjunction with the memorandum of understanding (MOU) which IOHK signed with the Ethiopian government last May to train and hire junior software developers. Lars and Polina have both written a blog post of their experiences and insight from teaching the course.

Craig Wright Sues Cat🐈

April 11, 2019	View in browser

[THIS JUST IN]

Craig Wright Sues Cat 🐈

If you are on Twitter, you probably noticed cat avatars everywhere.

Bitcoin Magazine is now Hodlonaut Magazine 😂

Here's why: This morning at about 5AM Eastern time, infamous Bitcoin SV investor and online gambling billionaire, Calvin Ayre, posted a bounty for popular Lightning Network Ambassador and Crypto Twitter personality @Hodlonaut (now deleted).

But first, let's rewind. Earlier this month, Craig Wright announced (through Calvin Ayre's Twitter) that he would be taking everyone who called him a fraud to court for defamation.

Soon after, Twitter erupted with glee, with many users touting the hashtag #CraigWrightIsAFraud.

However, as it turned out, Craig and Calvin weren't joking. And people started to receive legal notices.

[SPONSORED]

A NOTE FROM HONEYMINER:

Today, Calvin posted the bounty. He offered $5,000 to anyone who could identify the man behind the Hodlonaut account, so that he could issue his subpoena.

Twitter erupted. Some turned to Jack for help.

Many members of the crypto community began changing their names and avatars to Hodlonaut to support his cause.

This particular case is very interesting, as it is not necessarily up to Craig to prove that he is not a fraud, it is up to the person making the claim to prove he is.

Our advice: please be mindful of what you tweet.

(I'm talking to you, Peter)👇
