Bitcoin 401k


I just read this article and found it interesting.  Gemini is teaming up with a few others to offer 401k retirement offerings.  As such, employers will have the option of giving crypto investments in their plans.  Which would allow you to forego the hurdles of setting up a self directed retirement to make those investments.  Interesting.....

Halo Platform

Halo Platform is a project I have been following for a while now. This is a project that has admittedly had it's ups and downs. The project started in the hot and heavy age of ICOs in late 2017. At first they got a ton of work done, launched their chain, launched a bunch of dapps and really got rolling.

Then the bear market hit and hit hard. Much like many other cyrpto startups the project suddenly had some trouble. All the ETH and BTC that had been raised was now worth a fraction of what it was when it was raised. Many many projects either cashed out or folded, but Halo pushed through. Some tough choices were made and there was a significant downsizing that happened.

Coming out of the bear market and into what many hope to be the beginning of a new awakening for crypto it appears that Halo has weathered the storm. A little beaten and a little bruised, but still alive and kicking.

To date Halo has developed a fully functioning chain that is a fork of Ethereum and based in part on th…

Ether-1/$ETHO

Another project that I have been getting into as of late is Ether-1 and their currency $ETHO.  This is a really interesting project and for anyone who is a true disciple of the decentralize everything tenant, these guys will be right up your ally. More than any other project I have seen they truly want to decentralize everything and they let that guide all their decision making.  They have pushed to have decentralized governance of the project, and even watch the pool loading for their mining and encourage the communities to spread out the hash rate and not let any pools get over-weighted.

The project is attempting to provide for decentralized content hosting.  Now forgive me if I get a little bit of the technical details slightly off here.  Their primary product right now is EthoFS which is how they provide for the content hosting.  You use ETHO to cover the hosting costs and your content goes up and becomes part of the blockchain.  Much like many other blockchains it's an immut…

HaloDEX lists PEG

HaloDEX lists PegNet stablecoin PEG.
So what is PegNet?  Reading the PegNet webpage they dub themselves as the stablecoin network for Decentralized Finance.  It goes on to say that PegNet functions as a state channel on Ethereum dedicated to stablecoin prices, conversions and transfers.  The actual network is built on the Factom Protocal.  There are some nice videos and some other technical information but here is my not overly technical take on what PegNet really means.

I will start by saying, this product and network is not aimed at high volume traders or people that rely on trade speeds of a centralized exchange.  It's not for people that need near instant settlement, or people doing intra-day trading and/or scalping.  Really it's for people that want to change what they are holding to another thing based on a longer term outlook.

If you wanted to change around what you are holding, but you didn't want to have an actual exchange to log into and wait for a deposit to se…
