While many of us have a lot of unexpected free time due to the events surrounding COVID-19, finding things to do in these times may difficult. While everyone is under quarantine and staying out of the public as much as possible – now is the perfect opportunity to work on and/or pick up new skills.
In this post, we will examine Aspencoin’s transition to the Tezos blockchain from Ethereum and get into some interesting developments going on with Tokensoft.
Recently, I decided to interview Shane Burgett of Pocket/Figment, one of the top P-Rep candidates for the ICON protocol. We discussed Pocket/Figment’s past contributions to other projects like Tezos and an upcoming new development initiative for ICON, “ICON-DI” scheduled to take place in 2020 followed by an airdrop of POKT to provide rewards for ICONists running citizen nodes.
Recently, I decided to interview Radiofriendly of ICONation, one of the top P-Rep candidates for the ICON protocol. We discussed ICONation’s motivation for running for P-Rep, reward sharing, the state of ICONSENSUS, roadblocks, and more.
Creating blockchain governance models is no easy feat and many of the brightest minds with Ph.D.’s research the models extensively before formulating something that can work. In this post, we will contrast Proof-of-Stake (PoS) with Proof-of-Work (PoW), seek to understand why ICON’s Delegated Proof-of-Contribution (DPoC) model is an effective, incentive-based system, recap staking, and lastly discuss inflation.
Tezos has had an unbelievable year and it didn’t come quick to get to the point where the protocol is today. From early problems with the foundation, disgruntled factions, and many more issues in the early days – we can essentially compare Tezos’ story to that of a “Phoneix rising from the ashes“.
