Tech And Things

Most people do not take very good care of their online security. Here are 7 things you can do to protect yourself better online. Take it from someone who studied IT Security, cybersecurity matters.

For passwords and emails, you want to have the fewest connections possible between them, no re-used passwords, and only one recovery email completely separate from everything. The worst thing you can do is have one email that connects to everything and gives a bad actor access to everything.

You want to take full advantage of the social platforms out there that use blockchain technology or have crypto monetization. Here are the 13 platforms I used to earn $412.68 CAD worth of fiat & crypto in March as well as some insights.

I’ve noticed a lot of misleading use of blockchain terms like Web3, blockchain, decentralized, metaverse, etc. The semantics of all of this needs to be discussed because I can only expect it will lead to a lot of people losing money.

It seems to me that with a lot of the content I post especially when I dive into decentralization, Web3, the metaverse, and these terms that have been increasingly used as buzzwords that I need to take some time to clarify the semantics of all of this.

It’s become clear that many people are using words like Web3, blockchain, decentralization, and the metaverse for marketing purposes. They are not accurately reflecting what someone would generally assume they mean.

It’s become more apparent to me that there is no clear definition of decentralization and there are so many factors that there is no way to easily classify something as decentralized.

I’ve decided to create a matrix that will serve as a reference to accurately determine if something is decentralized and to what degree on a spectrum. This is particularly being made with blockchain social platforms in mind, but I’m sure most elements could be applied to other projects.

I spent some time with Andrei Poliakov from Coinberry discussing crypto regulation, crypto brokerages, paying taxes with Bitcoin, and much more. Check out our conversation for the inside scoop on how Coinberry and Canada are getting ahead in crypto.

Coinberry is a FINTRAC-registered, digital currency platform based in Toronto, Canada. It was founded in 2017 and is trusted by tens of thousands of users. They claim to offer the safest, simplest and quickest way to buy and sell BTC, LTC, ETH, BCH, and XRP using Canadian dollars.

I recently spoke with Alex Melikhov who is CEO & founder of Equilibrium and also co-founded Changelly to discuss DeFi, decentralization, and much more.

Equilibrium is introducing a cross-chain money market that combines pooled lending with synthetic asset generation and trading. It unites DeFi all in one place. You can lend, trade, borrow, and stake many different crypto assets, synthetic assets, decentralized stablecoins and more.

I had the opportunity to interview Daniel Satchkov who is the author of the whitepaper for Pkoin & Pocketnet. We discussed PKoin’s tokenomics, Pocketnet, decentralization, censorship, crypto-monetized social media, and much more.

I had the chance to speak with Dan Hensley, one of the co-founders of 3Speak on the Hive blockchain. It’s a video hosting alternative to YouTube and is considered a highly decentralized free speech platform. We dive into decentralization, Hive, blockchain, 3Speak, and much more!

I sat down with Dawson Botsford, the founder of Earnifi to discuss airdrops, how hard they are to find, claiming them, and more importantly how Earnifi streamlines all of this.

Hiding out there are millions of dollars in airdrops. Before Earnifi, these airdrops went unclaimed and many expired forever. Hundreds of people find money on Earnifi every day. Protocols sending out airdrops want you to claim their tokens. Just enter your address and find out instantly if you have airdrops waiting!

I had the opportunity to chat with Nicole Grinstead aka @NrdGrl007 about altseason, crypto maximalists, energy FUD, living the unbanked life, and how you can do it too with crypto.
