Story - Multi Signature Wallets Coming To Monero
https://github.com/monero-project/monero/pull/2134
Yesterday, on the Monero GitHub, pull request 2134 entitled Multisig was merged by the one and only fluffypony.
Now this has been merged into the Monero codebase it can be integrated into the next core wallet release and Monero wallet developers can begin building truly private multisig wallets.
Someone on Reddit was campaigning to get Monero integrated into OpenBazaar as a result of this.
That is because multisig now allows you to do private payments but with with an escrow, in case you need a mediator to come in and resolve a disputed transaction.
I think the success of Monero is one of the most interesting phenomena because their marketing is pretty much to develop the protocol and then when something cool gets built, people like me talk about it.
So I suppose you could say they end up getting free advertising on merit.
I said recently I have been eagerly awaiting Monero support for the Ledger Nano S, well did you know that the Monero community have already crowdfunded a Monero hardware wallet
https://forum.getmonero.org/9/work-in-progress/88149/dedicated-monero-hardware-wallet
This fundraiser is on their forum and was originally posted 3 months ago.
In the meantime though, I have accepted the risk of using the MyMonero.com web wallet.

So far it’s working OK but I can’t recommend it to anyone in case there is a security issue with it and you lose your money.
That’s why I said I am accepting the risks of doing this.
Story - BitPay To Launch Bitcoin Cash Support
https://blog.bitpay.com/multiple-blockchains/
I actually Tweeted this out as soon as I heard about it.
In that Tweet I basically referred back to my recent comments that businesses will not wait for Bitcoin to scale.
This is because they want to bring the benefits of cryptocurrencies to their users now and whichever technology offers that will get used.
This is why I keep banging on about the user experience. This is how it works in the free market.
Users have all the power, they are the ones that demand the solutions to their problems.
The entrepreneurs job is to find solutions to those problems, and then transfer them to the users.
Because the entrepreneurs are all competing with each other to provide the most effective solutions possible and gain the most market share, they’ll be constantly on the lookout for better solutions to their customers problems in order to get an edge on the competition.
And this announcement from bitpay is an example of a trend I think we are going to see continue for the reasons I’ve outlined.
So BitPay in this blog say…

So this doesn’t mean Bitcoin is going to go away. It just means Bitcoin and

I would call this an exchange but that is too narrow a definition.
They claim to be able to let you tokenise traditional assets and then trade them within one day using their LiquidityEngine product.
You can convert your real world assets into Securrencies which can then be traded virtually.
They recognise that, for the time being, there is still huge value in traditional financial assets so their job is to create a regulatory compliant bridge in the middle so their customers get the best of both worlds.
A Securrency is a blend of the word security and currency. It’s part currency, part bond, part exchange traded fund share.

This one is just for the US at the moment as far as I can tell and operates in 50 states.
Their value proposition is to reduce the fees associated with selling real estate by 80%.
They do this by having just 1 representative in each state and using the Deedcoin as the currency to pay their fees.
This allows the seller to keep 99% of the sale price because Deedcoin only has enough agents to serve the market and no more, so the system can run on less revenue.

This is a project that aims to increase transparency for charitable donations.
When I donate to a charitable cause, I’m giving the money with the expectation that the money is going to help the cause.
There have been many instances over the years where only a fraction of the money donated ends up being spent helping the cause.
The rest of it intentionally or unintentionally gets lost on the operating costs of the charity organisation itself.
That could just be poor cost management, or it could be big salaries. Either way Utopi aims to use blockchain technology so that is a permanent record of when the funds came in and then where they went.
When we know we are being watched, we voluntarily choose to engage in good behavior.

It seems Tor is putting back up its defences after discovering the FBI had broken through them earlier this year. According to a new paper, developers at the Tor Project have been working closely with security researchers to create a “hardened” version of the browser.
