Cryptopulse

Welcome to this special bonus edition of the Cryptopulse podcast. This episode is rather experimental as we wanted to bring you something different. Askah is an entrepreneur, android developer, and technical analysis whizz.  He guides us through an interactive session so you'll want to be sat still for this one. 

Here are some of the highlights: 

• How Akash started his crypto & blockchain journey.
• A summary of technical analysis and why it's important.
• Some basic things to check before buying & selling.
• How to use tradingview.com (this is the interactive part)

The link to Akash's Steemit profile is HERE

Here you will find a written explanation of what we cover in the episode.

In this episode, we're joined by Maya Middlemiss who is an expert storyteller. She helps blockchain projects tell their story to help with mainstream adoption. Despite the huge potential and promise of blockchain and cryptocurrency technologies, they remain the exclusive domain of early adopters. Maya tells us how she’s helping these tech projects get their message out there, since founding her company BlockSparks.

Here are some of the things we discuss in this episode of Cryptopulse:

• The problem with mass take up and how blockchain businesses need to adapt their message.
• How Maya got involved with Blockchain and how her crypto journey began.
• The problems with user interfaces for buying and understanding more about crypto & blockchain.
• How the mainstream media is not helping people understand the potential of this technology.
• Why the prices of Bitcoin and other cryptocurrencies take the limelight and how we can move the conversation past this.
• We also discuss why there's such a small percentage of women in the blockchain space and how this is damaging in many ways. Maya also suggests how this can change for the better!

In this episode we are joined by Eric Hop from the IOTA foundation, this is a platform Ben & I have been very interested in and was featured in our “Top altcoin picks” earlier this year. We have lots of questions about this huge project which now boasts a market cap of over $6billion. Some of this episode gets a little technical but we hope some of the explanations in layman's terms will help you understand more about IOTA. Here are some of the things we discuss:

How Eric got involved in blockchain (his very sad story!!)

The process of landing his dream job at the IOTA foundation

A simple (ish) explanation of the IOTA platform and what it does.

A run through of the Tangle technology and why it’s more suitable than using blockchain.

Some use cases of IOTA including the automotive sector.

When it comes to ICOs, crypto projects and new blockchain technology, it can be hard to keep up with what’s good, and what’s not good. What’s even harder to do, is follow the relatively smaller projects that might not get the recognition they deserve.

We’ve picked four projects that have not captured headlines, but have been included in blockchain blogs around the globe and have even been mentioned on sites like Forbes and Hacker Noon.

We picked these five, based on this criteria:

• $10-100 million market cap
• Praised on reputed sites
• Interesting project
• Good information available on them and their team

Note: This article was written on May 14th 2018, making all market caps and price figures relative to this day.

Starting with…

NAV (NAVcoin)

Hailed as the world’s first fully-autonomous cryptocurrency, this bitcoin-based decentralized crypto enables 30-second, low-cost, full-anonymous transactions. It looked to tackle the public transactional link between sender and receiver that exposes user privacy, and to tackle the data vulnerability that is presented by requiring databases to revert to recent backup points after a corruption.

It’s a dual-blockchain technology, combining the bitcoin architecture, and their own NAV subchain, which removes the traces between senders and receivers, allowing for anonymous transactions.

Their Telegram group has almost 5,000 members, and their Twitter has nearly 50,000 followers, showing that despite being relatively new, they are worth talking about.

Their small team of 6 full time staff have already launched:

• NavPay, a desktop wallet
• NavTech 1.2, obfuscation encryption layers
• NavPi, an energy efficient staking solution for rewards made in NacCoin
• NavCoin Core 4.0, a system for increased stability and integration

In 2018, they are going full steam ahead, planning to launch a platform for developers, lightning network transactions, instant exchanges from NAVcoin to other currencies, a payment gateway for users to spend their NAV and cold staking capabilities.

Market Capitalization: Crica $65million

Next up...

Cappasity (CAPP)

‘Cappasity brings an in-store browsing experience to online retail through interactive 3D images’ says their website.

It’s quite technical to understand at first, but once you’ve wrapped your head around what they want to do, you might say ‘ooh’ or ‘aah’, or you might think it’s not a gigantic project because of the complexity.

Cappasity develops tools to drastically improve AR/VR/3D technologies, and has so far successfully launched a professional 3D digitizing solution, which has an API for integration with e-stores and digital catalogues.

There is a marketplace that is vital to their ecosystem, which allows users to rent, buy and sell AR/VR/3D content and apps. Each file is given an ID/hash to prevent copyright, and this is what is stored in the blockchain. Cappasity.AI, another part of the project, analyses customer interaction with 3D images, producing heat maps to learn from.

It’s a cool project that will change how we view online products, and since shopping is one of the most popular activities on the internet, it’s no doubt going to grow once major retailers adopt its tech.

Market Capitalization: Circa $17million

Rentberry (BERRY)

Forbes declared Rentberry one of the top 10 ICO projects for 2018, so it’s surprising that their market Capitalization is only $13,296,317 USD so far.

The concept behind Rentberry is a blockchain technology that makes renting long-term less complication, and more convenient. The platform is already fully operational in the US, and is making the rental experience seamless, and also allows crowdsourcing features, to help tenants unfreeze their rental security deposits.

You can join an auction for a rental property, submit your credit and background information if you wish, and even pay your rent through the platform. Finally, of course, is the smart contract between tenant and landlord. All you have to do is visit the property, and the rest works on the blockchain.

It gets even better actually, you can even organise your viewings through the platform, and request maintenance for your apartment if something goes wrong.

The downside - it’s only in a handful of US cities right now.

ShipChain

A little bit different, but it’s something that affects our lives on a daily basis, without us realising it. Most of our clothes, electronics and items around the home, have been on a ship at some point, being transported internationally. What most people don’t realise, is that this industry has so many inefficiencies, issues, and expenses that cause a great deal of uncertainty. ShipChain wants to fix that, in their words:

‘Imagine a fully integrated system across the entire supply chain, from the moment a shipment leaves the factory, to the final delivery on the customer's doorstep; federated in trustless, transparent blockchain contracts. This is ShipChain.

The ShipChain platform is based on a simple, yet powerful solution called "Track and Trace.”

Our ecosystem will encompass all methods of freight, and will include an open API architecture that can integrate with existing freight management software.’

The market cap is currently circa $20million, but has more than doubled in size in the past month, and looks to be a very useful technology for the shipping logistics industry, which is worth more than $8,000,000,000,000, just to put things into perspective.

On their team, there is Roger Crook, the former CEO of HDL, Kevin Harrington from Shark Tank, Steve Schoch from Amgen and Miramax, and more.

Marco and his Mum would regularly move from town to town, school to school and not really make any friends, sometimes they had to sleep in the Park quite often to survive...Then his Mum unfortunately entered (unbeknown to her at the time) an abusive Relationship in the hope at first there would be stability.

• Some of the core principals and beliefs which helped Marco achieve incredible levels of personal and financial success.
• How Marco became involved in Crypto & Blockchain.
• The creation of the worlds first asset-backed cryptocurrency, NAKED.
• Why an asset-backed cryptocurrency is important.
