Dear Chain Letter Reader:

MIT Technology Review invites you to Business of Blockchain 2019 – a one-day conference in Cambridge, MA – for a deep dive into blockchains and their impact. 

Business of Blockchain 2019 is your opportunity to join the community of leaders across a wide range of industries and to lend your voice to the important business, ethical, and social questions that come with every new technological breakthrough.

  • What are the strengths and weaknesses of this emerging technology?
  • How are legal and regulatory environments around the world adapting to cryptocurrencies?
  • In what ways can blockchain address pressing social challenges and opportunities?

You'll learn from those who are already leveraging blockchain in the field. You'll learn even more from the hits and misses they made along the way.

Join us as we discover today what the rest of the world won't know until tomorrow, at Business of Blockchain.

Full Research Report on Komodo by Vleppo

Vleppo has been researching a diverse range of cryptocurrencies to determine whether these cryptos (and the company and people that are behind them) are of sufficient quality to lend against. Read the PDF report here: https://docs.wixstatic.com/ugd/7ab8e1_c820e1481792422aa414f31fd59839de.pdf.


 


Pull Request submitted to LedgerHQ's github by Luke Childs

Luke said "Just to clarify, that pull request is just to allow the Ledger to sign reward claim transactions without throwing errors. Users will still need to use our companion app to actually calculate and create all the reward claim TXs". You can check it out here: https://github.com/LedgerHQ/ledger-app-btc/pull/84.

Naomi Brockwell interviews Michael Toutonghi

Verus Coin lead developer Michael Toutonghi explains his new, mathematically proven, consensus mechanism called Proof of Power (PoP), and "nothing at stake" solution Stake Guard which uses crypto conditions, both of which are now active exclusively on the Verus blockchain.

Not only has Verus solved some of the critical problems explained in this interview, in the true spirit of open source, this week Mike and the Verus platform upstreamed a significant number of developments, innovations and implementations, including the original Verus Proof of Work / Proof of Stake Hybrid and in particular the Sapling upgrade.

What this upstream means is that months of hard work by the Verus development team is being shared with Komodo, giving the entire ecosystem a boost in techology. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=KFrOGYXi54o .
