Thanks! I think Bitflate can become a coin for transaction use case. It departs from the Store of Value narrative. Follow us on Twitter for updates. :)

Thanks. Dogecoin has a constant tail emission. As supply grows, the rate of new coin inflation shrinks. Dogecoin community rejects the idea that they have a compound (percentage) inflation. https://www.reddit.com/r/doge

I'm working on a heresy: a cryptocurrency with constant inflation. Most people in crypto dismiss the idea of inflation. It has been tried before. This time, I come up with a reward schedule to bootstrap inflation. And my crypto has inf

I'm glad to find someone who has the same idea. Crypto is very niche and specific. From start, I think each coin has a narrative. It'll be very hard to change that narrative. I think Dogecoin started out as a meme and fun coin. It

Author here. While I think Bitcoin will not be a medium of exchange, I think it'll be an important Store of Value. I propose running a parallel blockchain with 7% inflation to be a digital currency, the "bad" currency.

Prime numbers are important in music. They're actually random. Repetition of this randomness makes music beautiful.

LOL. I can't stop. :) I'm not going down the path of personal attack. Vitalik is smart. He lacks self criticism and focus. I do hope he'll find success.

Assessing crypto problem is itself a problem. Vitalik maybe 10 times smarter than me. But his track record is poor. He hasn't really proposed a solution that is worthy contribution to crypto. I have solutions to some of the problems he

I consider myself fairly knowledgable with cryptocurrency. I create and run a crypto project myself. I read this post and maybe understand 10% of it. This is probably the rate of things I read from Vitalik. Either Vitalik is extremely smart

Author here. I write this article to clear up the discussion about Ethereum prospect. There's a lot of hype and attack. I hope this analogy can help people find common ground.

Bitflate dev here. I've advocated for making a crypto with constant inflation. I think it's useful for transaction use case. It is a complementary crypto to Store of Value crypto. An inflating crypto is a good alternative to infla

I find it difficult to defend Tether. I leave the investigation to regulators. But assume Tether team has good intention and try to do the right thing, it is easy to make mistake. Tether software may have had a bug that inflates Tether coin

Very insightful comment. I still have hope for 5) permissionless blockchain. I think the space needs an inflating cryptocurrency. I started a crypto project with 7% supply inflation. I think inflation changes the economics and fill the gap

I'm Bitflate developer. I think crypto needs to explore inflation. I think limited and eventually zero supply hinders crypto adoption. I would love to hear everyone's thought about possible economic incentives for inflating crypto

Tether problems are known. It's surprising that crypto sphere continues using it. I guess it's a good way to connect digital native Bitcoin to the rest of the world, aka, fiat. I've been advocating for Bitflate. It's a c

I think given enough time, Libra project can succeed. But it has to jump through many hurdles. It will require a lot more investment than Facebook anticipate. I advocate for a new type of crypto: digital native and decentralized stablecoin.
