This guy, Richard Heart of *Australia, is building an interest feature into his 'bitcoin fork'. I believe this is new and different than other crypto-currencies. I believe that if people are looking for a "currency" when they look to crypto, this bitcoin fork will get straight to work.

Because it's a fork, bitcoin holders may claim their coins.

Check it out: HEX.com, and the staking for interest page.

*not; apparently I was wrong

In case you are new to bitcoin, I will attempt to explain:

Bitcoin is a ledger that can be used as a currency.
This project, bitcoinHEX, is being developed TO BE A CURRENCY.

Hi Davin.

I admit, even reading through the link, I am less than enlightened on the subject.

Could you perhaps tell us a bit more in layman's terms? We didn't all start on Coderanch.

I feel like you are joking. But thanks for the challenge... from what I am witnessing, people are confused about the value associated with communal digital ledgers. Since bitcoin's creation, other coins have been created. Good projects are attempting to be unique, but many are falling short of that, and are looking like frauds instead. When making a coin, the coin needs a base system to run on. For bitcoinHEX, that base is Ethereum. BitcoinHEX will fork (split) from the bitcoin ledger (tables/wallets), which means it will divide it's ledger (tables/wallets) the same, to start, which makes full adoption more appropriate to current bitcoin holders. BitcoinHEX will wrap up the current concerns about bitcoin being a currency, and run on the Ethereum platform.

Hmm, could you dumb it down a bit further? Maybe to the 4th grade level?

All I know about them is that they consume a tremendous amount of electricity to maintain, they are not physical pieces of money and that hackers like to use them for payment.

There are a lot of computers.
There is a fixed amount of digital coin.
We trade those coins for whatever purpose.
The computers make that transaction a 'consensus'.
The computers take a small fee for their work.

Equivalent: If I gave a cashier a dollar bill, the computers would show that dollar's code number go from me, to the store.

As of now, bitcoin's digital coin could be used for anything.
The digital coin is digital space on the bitcoin system.

Equivalent: Digital real estate like website domain names.

Some people say bitcoin is a first-generation experiment.
What governs bitcoins, or how a bitcoin works, could be more adapted to being a currency specifically.
Richard Heart is trying to make a currency in bitcoinHEX.

Ok, I get the "money" moving from person to person part. What I don't get is that you can just make it up (create it) and then it's a currency and people start trading it. It seems akin to if I went out there and created a company called General Ford Motors Company. Then people just decide it's a good thing and buy stock and trade it back and forth. The main difference is with stocks, there's the value of a company behind it. What's the value/backing behind a cryptocurrency?

To me, the most eye-opening statement would be: "Digital real estate." For example: Paul rents "permies.com" and "richsoil.com" from a world-wide consensus. I do the same for my website domain. There are a finite amount of domain names that are appropriate to consumers as we progress. Some name like "smoke.com" has become worth millions of USD.

Notes do not have a fixed supply (at the moment).

Furthermore, if I wanted to send crypto to Paul, I could do that in minutes - digital wallet to digital wallet.
But if I wanted to send USD to Paul, it may take days - bank to bank.

Ok, so US dollars are backed by the "full faith" of the US government. Which consists of billions or trillions of dollars worth of assets and a strong incentive to keep the economy and financial systems running.

It sounds like bitcoin is backed by the "decentralized consensus" of the world via their commitment to a virtual currency. I guess I'm not seeing how there's any actual value to support it. Other than the value people believe it holds on a given day. If enough people think it has value, then they trade it and are happy. But if people suddenly lose faith in it, doesn't the value drops dramatically overnight?

Or is it that in order to acquire one bitcoin, you pay XXX actual dollars into a kettle. Then you have a bitcoin that you can trade. The dollars that someone is keeping in the kettle are the support for the system. So as long as you trust them, it's all good?

Decentralized consensus.

Perhaps relevant to the fact that we're on Permies, an answer other than "Decentralized consensus" to Mike's question might be "around 3GW of computing" (no one really knows and it changes over time but this is probably an alright estimate). Or, since the Bitcoin network can process about 10 transactions per second, we could say "83kWh per transaction" (also the network is "always on" so the energy cost is paid whether anyone is transacting or not).

So, specifically, it's worth considering whether the benefits of Bitcoin outweigh the internalized and externalized costs of maintaining it.

Hm. I don't think this comparison is quite right. Those domain names are rented from centralized authorities (the "registries"). If those centralized authorities decide to take the domain names away, they can. Bitcoin, on the other hand, allows anyone in the world to participate (as long as they have the computing resources and corresponding power) and requires that 50%+1 of computing power (or ~33% if folks are really clever) agree to any particular transaction.

Also, it's not clear to me how "digital real estate" relates since one bitcoin is one bitcoin and will not practically appreciate (or depreciate) compared to another bitcoin. Technically, bitcoin *aren't* fungible but this technicality doesn't seem like it would allow the kind of valuation growth you see in popular domain names.

Other problems to watch out for with any "altcoins" (there's another less polite term for them, too) is that since there is so much computing hardware available to run the Bitcoin network and the altcoin networks are so much smaller, it is very easy for an agent to move some hardware from Bitcoin to an altcoin and become 50%+1 all by themselves. This allows them to do all kinds of nasty things that break the very premise of the coin.

Yes. But the same goes for countrys’ monetary systems. Bitcoin’s USD value is up 1000% since summer of 2017.

No. There are crypto currencies that are a one to one with USD, but bitcoin is not.

So if the value can change so dramatically, it seems like a combination of a risky investment and a currency system. I know national currencies fluctuate relative to one another but that's based on GDP and other normal-ish economic indicators. If the money in my pocket went up and down by 100's of percentages over the course of a year, I'd consider it more of a risky investment than I would a means of currency.

If someone wants to give me some, I won't turn them down. If I could buy bitcoin for $1 per coin, I'd buy them. But I'm not about to convert $10,000 USD into bitcoin to start using them as money.

The value is decided “by the market”, and this system is new and improving.

If I may return to the digital real estate analogy: the online bubble popped and returned strong. People started focused tech careers there.

Where we are now: You can have a wallet in your internet browser and/or cell phone. Bitcoin and most other coins just had a bubble. People are starting careers.

I am personally to much of a luddiphte to get into actually owning cryptocurrencies at the moment. But to add my 2 bitcoins to the most common question of 'how does this digital currency have any physical value?' from long talks with friends who are deeply committed to the idea of digital currency the 'value' lies in the fact that lots and lots of people (like billions) want to have this technology. These people want a way to transfer value digitally quickly and securely. They want a way to pay/get paid anonymously, they want a financial avenue around banks and currency conversion fees, they want an alternative free savings space to hoarding physical cash/metal, etc... The combination of billions of people desiring a system that can do these various things, and a decentralized system that is harder (ideally impossible) to control/manipulate is the source of the value.
As to the computing power needed and it's energy cost, my understanding is that the 'mining' aspect of bitcoin was an intentional design feature to incentivize the commitment of computing infrastructure to the system. Mining bitcoin will end once they are all released and at that point the ledger is just another of the trillions of ambient features of the global computer network so it's energy costs become the total energy cost of the global computer network divided by the percentage of that network dedicated to maintaining the ledger (vanishingly small).
Any how, i find it a fascinating technology and I think that the massive impact it will have on the world will pop up on many of us seemingly out of nowhere.

Hex is a coin project that I am following. It's release date has been delayed due to development. When the claim time comes, to claim Hex (# per Bitcoin), it will require that you hold your bitcoin in a wallet that can do signatures.

They have a telegram group (that is current).

Dear Davin,
Thanks for the heads up on that, it looks really interesting. Day to day I tend to use my exchange wallet which doesn't have signatures on it (not sure if the option exists there) , yes I know it's more risky but I don't like all the charges with the personal wallets. Even so I am thinking that I need to dust down my personal wallet for things like this, it is currently buried somewhere on my old laptop. Best wishes from Blighty.

This is where the project is now.

I did a bad job describing the project in my initial video (as I always do with my art and architecture). And referral links aren't worth sharing (at 10% of people's small bitcoin claims). But if you're interested, the best way to acquire this token is to refer yourself, and put Etherium into the Adoption Amplifier (some day) this first year of the project launch. The token can be traded or swapped for other crypto currencies, but the big intriguing feature of this project is the time deposit with interest. The (white paper) contract allows an anonymous crypto address (crypto wallet) the ability to manage its own "Certificate of Deposit." The community interested in this project has been active in creating tools (web pages) to view all sorts of statistics with the projects environment (since everything is public - where you are an address, not an identity).

This project has exploded like moringa in the summer.

I empathize with everyone who I have reached out to here. After I came back from Wheaton Labs PDC and ATC in July 2017, I was at a coffee shop behind the pizzeria that was offering me partnership if I followed through with some construction drawings and continued consulting. There was a young man (probably college aged) who past through the coffee shop and bought one of every pastry. I was high on coffee and high on my (partnership) ego at the time, but I remember him well. We sat out front of this coffee shop alone and exchanged a few words. I told him what I was up to, and he told me what he was up to. He had been trading crypto currency while living at his parents, and things had been going well, so he decided to tour my town because he never had before (even though he lived 20 miles south in Austin his whole life).

I like this project because:
This project doesn't get interrupted.
This project is complete.
This project allows all people to participate directly.
This project has transparency.
This project has strict rules.

Updates on Crypto currencies:

There is currently a movement called Defi. Standing for Decentralized Finance. Programmers are building on top of Ethereum (the second well known coin project, runner-up to Bitcoin). Common people are losing their butts on exchanges like Binance - don't be a trader! The Defi movement has been really successful because of a website/app called Uniswap, where you can trade one currency for another, without signing up for anything. You must pay a liquidity provider fee and a gas fee for the transaction. You may also become one of the liquidity providers and collect a percentage of the fees if you place your "asset" into the "pool". Coinbase is also a name to know as they are the largest on-ramp for people to get started in owning a cryptocurrency. I advise you get a metamask.io wallet attached to your browser. Things in Crypto are getting easier. People are building it out. Cell phone wallets are being built. Transferring funds back out of crypto and into your bank account is getting easier. Why should you take notice? You can send funds quickly and those funds are respected by the recipient.

Update on HEX:

The founder bought HEX.com domain name. The one year marker is coming up November 18/19th. On this day, large percentages will be rewarded to people who have staked (locked-up) tokens, and the inflation rate is set at 3.69% for every year going forward. This project got a lot of hate from the crypto community, and now it is being shadowed by Defi on Ethereum, but it is still a solid (working) project without promises (of future buildouts like most well-known coins that haven't delivered over the course of their two+ year life). Hex token runs on Ethereum too. So, it's gas price is being affected as Defi runs its course. Ethereum is what is used for gas, therefore, the Ethereum price has gained on most other coins, including Bitcoin.

Australians generally like to gamble.
I dont get involved but I watch out of curiosty.
We have tow games that are popular;
- Two up where two coins are thrown upwards and bets are taken as to which side they will land.
- The other involves darts and flies on the wall.

I compare Bitcoin to flies on the wall.
I believe its gambling and shifts a small amount of money[ could be $100,000 ] from a large number of people
over time to a small number of people.
Its like MAGIC!

Last night during a live stream by the founder of HEX crypto token, a new all-time high was reached. The breaking of the all-time high was inevitable, because we are approaching the end of the first year launch phase. At this year-end marker, bonuses will be awarded to wallets that have (active stakes) in the token. Thus, the token needs to be acquired before staking, pushing the price up.

I believe the best thing I can do right now is pass along two youtube videos.

This is the founder of HEX token last night talking about the token in relation to current events in the crypto space.

This is the HEX community that has risen to the occasion this year. (Community in a crypto currency is important. It helps with holding coins/tokens, and on-ramping new users. Without a rising price, a crypto user will not hold a crypto coin/token. But HEX was formulated simultaneously with community and code. It's code spawns from an idea of integrating the old ways of crypto, with the established ways of banking. HEX is coded to rise in price, because of features that allow one to lock-up their tokens to earn interest (much like a Certificate of Deposit). Users are penalized for cancelling their lock-ups, and the system of lock-ups is transparent - for all users to see. There are many more features that make this an exciting project and fuel the community with topics that I will fall short of mentioning here.) You can find more of the HEX community on Telegram and Dlive apps.

I can see someone acquiring HEX tokens, (wink, wink)
and dividing the amount into three, (wink)
and staking the three amounts into the future, (wink)
at 1, 3, and 9 years. (wink, wink)

To get involved, one would need to acquire a digital wallet like MetaMask (that attaches to your web browser).
Then, acquire Ethereum ($ETH), which can be bought for $USD at places like Coinbase.
Send the ETH to the Metamask wallet.
Convert that ETH into HEX at Uniswap (or for a limited time HEX Bonus Lobby)
Stake that HEX using the HEX Stake app.
And finally, "forget about it" by marking calendars and not touching principals.
There are no minimums.
This crypto is being compared to Bitcoin, so no amount is too small.
Some people believe, getting experience in handling crypto currencies, is worth a few dollars.

Contact me, or PM to be special.
This is not financial advice.

It wasn't my idea to go to some crazy nightclub in the middle of nowhere. I just wanted to stay home and cuddle with this tiny ad:
