Real Cryptos Reside on Your Cellphone

The internet was born on desktop devices but it now resides in our pockets – or more often our palms, since we rarely stop using our mobile devices long enough these days to put them away. When Satoshi published his white paper in October 2008, desktop was still the preferred means of doing business on the web, but all that was about to change. 14 months earlier, Steve Jobs had unveiled the iPhone, ushering in the stirrings of what would become the mobile revolution.

If Your Crypto Doesn’t Have a Mobile Wallet It’s Not Really a Currency

Meanwhile, Satoshi was quietly getting on with his own cryptocurrency revolution. By late 2010, Satoshi had checked out, but the seed he had sown was sprouting into a digital money tree that was growing fast. By 2016, mobile web usage outstripped desktop usage, and the crypto economy, which had stagnated for the last two years, exploded into life. Suddenly everyone was releasing coins and tokens, many of which were mobile-oriented, and everyone was tweeting, Snapchatting and vlogging about crypto.

There was just one problem: most of these new cryptocurrencies weren’t actually spendable. They were more like future currencies, that would be usable in around 18 months’ time when the development team got round to releasing Android and iOS wallets. Bitcoin might be expensive to send and ripple might be pointless to send, but at least they can be used as a form of currency, P2P or P2B. Good luck transforming the lives of the unbanked with your “cheap and fast” transactions that can only be sent from desktop wallet to desktop wallet.

iOS Ain’t Easy

If Your Cryptocurrency Doesn’t Have a Mobile Wallet It’s Not a Cryptocurrency

The difficulty many developers face is that having an app approved for the App Store is an arduous and rigorous process. Apple don’t accept any old code, cobbled together and rushed to market, which is how many cryptocurrency projects seem to operate. As a consequence, mobile wallets – iOS especially – have proven to be a sticking point. Of the coins currently in the cryptocurrency top 10, half don’t have their own dedicated wallet.

Ripple, cardano, stellar, IOTA, and EOS all lack proprietary iOS wallets, with ripple and stellar at least spendable using third party wallets. Venture outside the top 10 and very few coins have a mobile wallet; monero for example is still waiting on full iOS support. Mobile wallets take time and tinkering to perfect, so it’s not the fault of development teams that they’re unable to push these apps out overnight. But until they do, all their talk of being able to support thousands of transactions a second and enable peer to peer exchange is just that – talk.

MYSTERY OF BERMUDA TRIANGLE FINALLY SOLVED 17 COMMENTS 23472 VIEWS Bermuda Triangle Mystery Solved? Scientists believe they’ve solved the mystery of the Bermuda Triangle ― and it’s not UFOs or sea monsters. It’s another kind of monster: monster waves. The Bermuda Triangle, also known as the Devil’s Triangle, is a region in the North Atlantic that is generally bounded by Miami, Bermuda and Puerto Rico. Over time, a number of aircraft and ships are said to have disappeared there under mysterious circumstances. According to “The Bermuda Triangle Enigma” on Britain’s Channel 5, scientists now believe conditions in that area were just right for massive rogue waves. “There are storms to the south and north, which come together,” said University of Southampton oceanographer Simon Boxall, per the Sun. “And if there are additional ones from Florida, it can be a potentially deadly formation of rogue waves.” Boxall said these rogue waves could reach 100 fee...

Ezeugo For Idemili North Constituency in Anambra State House of Assembly 2019.

As a youth leader, I Ezeugo will support law that will better the Rights of women, young people (youth) and the destitute (poor). In our society, we have three numerical majorities, these three majorities include the youth, women and the poor none of these classes are satisfied with their participation in the country economy, politics or administration. The poor, women and youth still lack the kind of support by legislative bodies that would allow them to represent their voices and demands within the context of the of the law. Effective representation will pay a positive role in changing their living conditions and make their voices heard. For this reason Ugochukwu Ezeude - Ezeugo programs tackles various aspects and will also help fight against poverty. Together we can make it happen and better. I stand with Ezeugo for better tomorrow. I stand for the truth.
