Augur (Rep)

https://www.publish0x.com/cryptocurrency/what-augur-rep-comprehensive-guide… [partial quote follows] What is Augur (REP)? [A Comprehensive Guide to Understanding Augur] By Mr.CryptoWiki | cryptocurrency | 2 weeks ago Since the gambling and sports betting industry is booming year after year, there is a constant influx of new businesses trying to get a piece of the cake. This has proven true in the crypto industry as well, where dapp development platforms like EOS attribute 70 percent of their overall traffic to gambling dapps and TRON attributes 95 percent of its network activity to gambling-related dapps. Ethereum, however, is much less than this at only 2 percent, largely because the DeFi (decentralized finance) industry makes up the majority of network activity. Nevertheless, the online gambling and betting market are booming and if you apply the decentralized nature of cryptocurrencies combined with smart contract capabilities, the potential to create something truly revolutionary arises. One such project doing just that is Augur (REP) – a decentralized prediction market platform where anyone can place bets on literally anything. Bet on sporting events, political outcomes, economies, weather, natural disasters, market crashes, cryptocurrency prices, and much more. With Augur, you bet on the outcome of future events that anyone, anywhere in the world can create to get monetary prizes. The less likely an event is to occur, the bigger the reward you can earn predicting its success.[end partial quote]

https://medium.com/@vntrp/augur-token-fundamental-analysis-caeb80b1d542 [partial quote follows] Highlights - Interesting market with high potential, but lack of active users - Solving a big issue with a bad UX and worrying mechanism design flaws - No break-through technology and a convoluted resolution process - Currently way overvalued on the fundamental side - Augur V2 (to be released in September) might solve some of the issues of the model, but will liquidity and participation rate increase? Business Description Augur is the largest fully decentralized and open-source prediction market platform built on top of the Ethereum blockchain. It was founded in 2014 by Jack Peterson and Joey (Joseph) Krug. Augur’s ICO in 2015 allowed the organization to raise 5M USD and subsequently launch the mainnet in 2018. The goal of Augur is to provide a betting application (and an entire decentralized financial system, according to the Augur Master Plan published in 2017) that is censorship-resistant from platform providers and government bodies allowing any user to create a prediction market. | | | | | | | | | | | Augur Master Plan Augur Augur’s purpose is to democratize and decentralize finance. We’ll do this by enabling anyone, anywhere, at anyti... | | | Based on its convoluted resolution model, Augur’s value proposition lies in forecasting and communicating the outcome of real-world events thanks to designated reporters who get rewarded in REP (Reputation, the cryptocurrency for the Augur ecosystem) for every correct reporting on actual events and the ensuing market resolution. This system aims at creating a universe where market odds should align with real-world sentiment towards a specific event by allowing traders to participate in these peer-to-peer prediction markets.

History of Cypherpunks
by jim bell 08 Nov '19

08 Nov '19

https://servisaberlo.com/articulos-5000-palabras/cypherpunks-definicion/ History of Cypherpunks,in Spanish, but Google will translate.Partial quote follows: Until the 1970s, cryptography was ironically a secret cooked in the military orbit for encryption and decryption of messages in times of war. Available to military agencies, out of the reach of the ordinary user. But soon leading scientists began to make public their knowledge and studies on cryptography on the electronic level, inspiring the creation of tools in the service of privacy and security of user data. CYPHERPUNKS FOUNDERS Eric Hughes, Timothy C. May and John Gilmore are the creators of cypherpunk, a leaderless movement that began as a small group with monthly meetings at Gilmore's company, Cygnus Solutions, in California. First, with discussions between Eric Hughes and Timothy May, which led Hughes to organize a meeting. That first meeting was the same week that, by coincidence, PGP 2.0 was launched. The 'The Cypherpunks' mailing list has been in existence since September 1992 , when several crypto activists went to cyberspace to communicate , organizing a mailing list , where everyone could register anonymously. ERIC HUGHES Mathematician and programmer, Hughes created and managed the email list The Cypherpunks , where he got to spread one of his developments : the first anonymous remailer - created alongside Hal Finney - in 1992.

When encrypted anon p2p overlay networks and meshnets exist, combined with decentralized distributed content browsing applications, and privacy cryptocurrencies for monetizing your own, all the garbage services like YouTube and Facebook disappear. Only thing you have to pay on for is your internet connection. Even that is free if you built your own meshnet guerrilla net. Look at DTube for an early and incomplete example. > Of course now, more & more people are using VPNs Tools are still handy... encrypt, hop, obfuscate all the things. > I wonder what the average person signing up for Google acct & giving > their real phone #, just because "they asked for it?" Given the choice most people would not do that. They did not fight, so they have no choice or negotiation. > Unless they're using burner phones. Useful if the account is worth the $ to people, but that option is going away fast, because people are not fighting enough to keep it. Many many countries require privacy invading ID to buy a SIM, invasive shipping ID to get SIM shipped cross border, and invasive passport ID to travel to countries that don't. https://papersplease.org/ Much better if Google YouTube and all other online services accepted privacy cryptocurrencies, a roughly SIM cost amount, as forfeitable deposit on account behaviour. Or even a plain old deposit / payment mailed in via the post. Or deployed various community and algorithm methods. But they don't, because behaviour isn't the issue, their goal is to enslave you, for which making behaviour enforcing as growing accepted norm is but one way. > I'm fairly certain people have no idea how far or > fast their phone # can travel & all the personal data that will be tied > to it, when they the phone # to (many) companies like Google. Nor how easily their phone # can be SimJacking attacked and SDR Stingray OpenBTS intercepted. Nothing really wrong with privacy preserving TOTP RFC 6238 and other two-factor schemes, even dating back to s/key opie. But no, they want the phone # to datamine crosslink your ass, while lievertising you that phone # is secure, private, etc. So many examples in news of what these GovCorp really doing on backend with all the data. > I just give the nosy businesses the same number (like for warranty purposes) > w/ an area code that doesn't exist. Last N digits of many ID systems are enough to correlate with other data, lots of whitepapers on that. Number ranges are known and throw exceptions, facial ID checkout register cameras linked to doorway IMEI recorders, to receipts, to paycards, etc. When opponents have all the data, tech, "laws", and control, hiding is not a win, it is not a fight, it is a decreasingly effective temporary feelgood substitute for fighting the policy itself. Did you read the latest news on USA DNA Biometric Facial mandatory databases creation and abuse, inside country, and at borders, and around the world. All interlinked with secret backend vendors databases. Amazon Ring secret partnering with "law" enforcement. Mailing shipping services new ID and size policies. Social credit scores in your own country. 0-days against your systems sold off to the highest Gov bidder. On and on the list goes, the chains closing around everyones ankles faster than you can break them off with your neato tools. Yet tools are nothing without instructions. > They're as happy as little clams. Except then most chances to educate the clerk are gone, for at least on that visit you totally reconfirmed their brainwashing for them by demonstrating sheepledom as being ok. Helping people be sheeple is not helpful. Sure, create and give them nice crypto tools. But first help them wake up and fight. That is the shift that needs to happen.

Didn't I put a reference to Chuck Hamill's From Crossbows to Cryptography into my Assassination Politics essay?

I just did a search of my AP essay. I didn't find a reference to Chuck Hamill's essay, "From Crossbows to Cryptography" in it. https://nakamotoinstitute.org/static/docs/from-crossbows-to-cryptography.pd… is going on? I cannot imagine NOT having cited Hamill's essay. It, perhaps more than any other single thing, inspired me to write my AP essay. Please help me solve this. Jim Bell

The Jewish/Israeli Question - USS Liberty - "anti semitic facts" - [PEACE] [MINISTRY]

>From the "Those whom you may not criticize coming under more and more criticism and scrutiny and doing everything in their power to censor the world as a result" department... Create your world, 'I Will Never Leave a Fallen Comrade' Except if He Was on the USS Liberty https://russia-insider.com/en/i-will-never-leave-fallen-comrade-except-if-h… Ray McGovern … On the 47th anniversary of that unprovoked attack let’s be clear about what happened: Israeli messages intercepted on June 8, 1967, leave no doubt that sinking the USS Liberty was the mission assigned to the attacking Israeli warplanes and torpedo boats as the Six-Day War raged in the Middle East. Let me repeat: there is no doubt – none – that the mission of the Israeli Defense Forces (IDF) was to destroy the USS Liberty and kill its entire crew. … How I Came to See That Many 'Anti-Semitic Canards' Are Actually True https://russia-insider.com/en/how-i-came-see-many-anti-semitic-canards-are-… "Asbestos Ron" Unz … "The notorious Jewish tendency to shamelessly lie or wildly exaggerate has sometimes had horrifying human consequences." "If the most extreme “anti-Semitic canards” were probably true, then surely the whole notion of anti-Semitism warrants a careful re-examination." … A Few Simple Arguments Which Cast Serious Doubt on the 'Holocaust' https://russia-insider.com/en/few-simple-arguments-which-cast-serious-doubt… MICHAEL WALSH Sit the students down and explain slowly: “According to the World Jewish Encyclopaedia there resided 2.4 million Jews in German-Occupied Europe. After the war, 3.8 million Jewish ‘holocaust survivors’ were receiving pensions from the German government. Tragically, the remaining six million were lost.” … Okay, let’s start again: “Doctor Charles P. Larson, one of America’s leading forensic pathologists, in 1945 was assigned to the US Army’s Judge Advocate General’s department. As part of a US war crimes, investigation team Dr. Larson performed autopsies at Dachau and some twenty other camps examining more than 100 corpses on some days. Dr. Larson confirmed that none of the autopsies he performed showed any evidence of death by poison gas. But, his conclusion was that death had occurred by typhus and starvation (as a consequence of USAAF and RAF saturation bombing).” … The Fags, Jews, and God-Haters in League With Jordan Peterson https://russia-insider.com/en/fags-jews-and-god-haters-league-jordan-peters… Brother Nathanael IF THE NEW YORK TIMES is promoting it as an alliance of intellectuals foiling the mainstream conversation then you know the conversation is Jew approved. The “alliance”—known as the Intellectual Dark Web—is Jew heavy, peppered with sodomites, with not one member openly anti-Jewish or anti-Israel. Others are white atheist liberals with a couple of Middle Easterners thrown in for diversity’s sake, one of whom is a Lebanese Jew. …
