Block DX Coins: Weekly Recap #1

The Blocknet Protocol
6 min readMay 13, 2018

--

Block DX official coin announcements have begun! We are announcing roughly one coin per day with the hashtags: #coinaday & #internetofblockchains across our social media. This is a recap of the first week of coin announcements. This campaign is expected to continue as we approach the full production release of Block DX in the summer.

It would be great if the Blocknet community could help spread the word by posting, retweeting, upvoting and sharing each announcement with the respective communities on Reddit and BTCTalk. It only take a moment. Strength in numbers!

Below you will find links to our social media and links to the social media of the relevant coins that you can comment on, share and upvote to help let the cryptoworld know about the capability these coins are bringing to the internet of blockchains. Below are examples of cross-chain uses that could be built for interoperability on the Blocknet protocol that include general and specific examples for each coin.

Blocknet protocol interoperability example: A coin mixing or payment gateway that automatically trades any currency for the private currency and back into the same or any other currency. Since the decentralized exchange does not require any third party to be trusted with users’ data, and since the atomic swap involves no counterparty risk, the result is strong privacy protection.

Blocknet protocol interoperability example: Use DigiByte to pay for media, place bets, buy good and services on other blockchains, while only holding DigiByte. This can offer a layer of security with DigiByte’s new DigiID feature that allows dApps to have cryptographically verified identification.

Blocknet protocol interoperability example: Can be accepted as payment through a processor that exchanges Dogecoin for other coins accepted by the vendors. Or perhaps rent videos using LBRY Credit, but pay with Dogecoin.

Blocknet protocol interoperability example: An app that uses Block DX to allow any coins to be used for payment of digital content and also integrates other storage blockchains to host the content. More smart contract abilities (e.g. Ethereum integration) could allow to access content based on certain conditions.

Blocknet protocol interoperability example: A coin mixing or payment gateway that automatically trades any currency for PIVX and back into the same or any other currency. Since Block DX does not require any third party to be trusted with users’ data, and since the atomic swap involves no counterparty risk, the result is strong privacy protection.

Blocknet protocol interoperability example: SYS could use other blockchains for tracking the shipping of products sold on the Block-market. This would make it more difficult for vendors to artificially inflate the number of positive reviews. Or the Sys marketplace service could be integrated into dapps.

Useful information

Coming up

  • SPV integration is underway, which allows for transactions to be verified through our Service Node network that are sent from a multi-wallet or lite wallet. This would remove the requirement for a trader to have the synced blockchain of any coins being traded.
  • Automated trading set up to streamline the set up process and make it more user friendly.
  • A trading library is also under development. This library offers additional tools and abstraction to simplify the process of building a trading bot.
  • Implementation of the automatic purchase of Block from the top of the market to cover fees. This will mean constant buy pressure on Block.
