Total supply will be set at 3,141,592 $CSNO.

As part of our strategy, Casinodes will have a private sale (ICO). There will be 628,318.4 $CSNO available for the presale, equalling to 62,831 Slot Machines. When that goal is reached, the sale will go public and the real money making will begin. Each $CSNO will be priced at 0.0002 $BNB (~$0.10). More information on the presale here.

This means that 20% of the total supply will be sold during the initial coin offering, ensuring engagement and hype towards the project. For an experienced node investor, this figure may seem high. But fear not, as we have calculated every aspect of this project, and the solutions put in place will prevent common types of economic issues related to bullish projects such as Casinodes.

To keep a healthy economy, we have implemented a node ageing system — For the first 20 days of a node’s existence, it will yield 1 $CSNO chip a day. When the Slot Machine is 20 days old, rewards will start obeying the following equation:

This function was designed to keep rewards to a maximum whilst lightening the pressure put on the liquidity/reward pool:

All in all, the total function node rewards obey in relation to the node’s age is:

This gives the following graph:

As for token distribution after the purchase of a node, priority will be given to the reward pool. 70% of tokens used to make the purchase will be directed to it to keep a high token supply, preventing any shortages. A further 10% will be sent to the BSC LP, so everyone will have a much easier time extracting their gains and converting them into other tokens.

Finally, a variable percentage will be transferred into the project’s wallet, in part to remunerate the Casinodes team, but most importantly for expenses such as running the website or discord server. Initially, it will be set at maximum of 20% and will be greatly decreased in the future. We insist on having a high-expense strategy for the project: moderators will be paid for their services, giveaways, airdrops and events will be frequent, this is all a part of our “going all out” vision.

Against the backdrop of tougher sanctions and the Ruble’s reach of its historical minimum, the Russians began to massively buy cryptocurrency. Duh. After all, cryptocurrencies work on blockchain technology, a public database that banks are not able to control.

Today, blockchain technology gives Russians a very needed opportunity to make transactions without the mediation of banks, thereby bypassing sanctions. To be honest, this is a historic moment. Not even in terms of politics. This is the conflict taking place in the era of the existence of cryptocurrencies. For the first time, there is a tool that makes it easy to move billions of dollars across the border, available to all parties to the conflict.

Western money transfer companies are blocking services in Russia. This will hit not only the oligarchs, but also ordinary people, so the need for cryptocurrency is obvious.

At this time, major crypto exchanges rejected the request of the Deputy Prime Minister of Ukraine to block all Russian users. This is quite predictable, because such actions would fundamentally contradict the very spirit of the crypto community. Moreover, there is no point in blocking all Russian accounts — large amounts cannot be hidden in the public registry, and now ordinary citizens are mainly buying tokens, trying to save money in the falling ruble exchange rate.

Why is it better to store your money in cryptocurrency?

Hedging (risk insurance) against fiat currency. For investors, one of the most important indicator when choosing cryptocurrencies is their decentralized nature. Cryptocurrencies are not controlled by central banks and governments who like to print money and increase inflation in fiat currencies such as the US Dollar or the Euro. Some investors who own Bitcoin call it “digital gold” because they believe it will protect them from inflation.

Potential for huge profits. The purchase of cryptocurrencies creates the potential for a large return on investment. The leaders of capitalization over the past 5 years have shown good growth results, which indicates the prospects for the purchase of digital assets. In addition, a new audience will soon come to the crypto market. The growth of the crypto industry will only increase the demand for coins and their value.

In addition, cryptocurrency holders have access to tools for earning money on savings. In particular, we are talking about farming and staking, with the help of which stablecoin owners can earn 5–15% per annum in dollars.

The escalation of the political conflict between Russia and Ukraine contributed to the adaptation of cryptocurrencies in the world. Today, cryptocurrencies can hardly be called worthless “wrappers”. Against the backdrop of the development of the crypto industry, coins have become a convenient tool for exchanging values around the world.

Cryptocurrencies are worth holding and using. Traditional means of exchange behave less stable than cryptocurrencies. This is the reason why many sell rubles, dollars and euros to buy cryptocurrency.

2021 was the year when Sat.is started. 2022 will be the year when Sat.is takes off.

After a year of development, Sat.is was finally introduced to the public in late 2021. We successfully launched our Alpha Testnet and saw over 6,000 unique wallets interacting with it.

Of course, this is just the starting point.

Going into 2022, we have lots of plans lined up to create and develop the best multichain orderbook DEX for the interoperable future.

Q1

The Building Process Continues…

From the feedback gathered during the Alpha Testnet, we continue to build out and upgrade the Sat.is trading interface. New features will be added to enhance user experience.

User Experience Survey and Research

We will conduct a two-phase survey to examine user experience on the current Sat.is trading platform. Phase 1 involves asking volunteers to complete a comprehension survey. Phase 2 involves A/B testing and multivariate testing where volunteers are given a task-based questionnaire and are asked to screen record their interactions with the Sat.is trading interface. This would greatly boost our understanding on how volunteers intuitively use the Sat.is trading interface. With the survey results, we proceed to conduct deep scientific research to develop the most optimal user interface for Sat.is.

Content-related Activities

We plan to hold several content-related contests throughout Q1 in the community. Faithful supporters and winners will be rewarded.

Strategic Partnerships

While we are building out our roadmap, we will also be seeking out strategic partnerships with investors, projects and protocols that can form synergy with Sat.is.

Q2

Sat.is Private Beta Testnet Launch

We scheduled the launch of Sat.is Private Beta Testnet to be in Q2. The testnet will be equipped with most of the features planned and be on multiple chains including Arbitrum, Optimism and Boba. Instructions and eligibility to participate in the Private Beta Testnet will be disclosed in due course.

Sat.is Public Beta Testnet Launch

The Public Beta Testnet is finally here! Get a feel of the advanced Sat.is trading interface before Mainnet Launch.

Apart from the events listed, we have other plans in mind that will be revealed at the appropriate moment. We aim to under promise and overdeliver!

If you have a Crypto wallet and hold any value of cryptocurrency, you’re much further along than I was 2 months.

If you’ve never heard of the Drip Network: it’s about time that you do.

I want to share this project I have invested in heavily over the last few months that is changing my life.

And it is the easiest and most rewarding project to get into. (especially if you are new to the world of crypto)

The fundamental principles of this project are simple. Invest money and gain 1% daily interest on that initial investment.

If I invest 100 today, I’ll earn 1 daily up to a multiplier of 3.65.

That’s a nice return on investment. Whatever amount you deposit, the Drip Network allows you to claim 1% daily back on that initial principle up to a max payout of 3.65 times those deposits.

If you invest 1000, you are entitled to 1000 X 3.65 return on that investment.

THE DRIP NETWORK’S FAUCET IS A LOW-RISK, HIGH REWARD CONTRACT THAT OPERATES SIMILARLY TO A HIGH YIELD CERTIFICATE OF DEPOSIT. PLAYERS CAN PARTICIPATE BY PURCHASING DRIP FROM THE PLATFORM’S SWAP PAGE, JOINING ANOTHER USER’S DRIP TEAM (10 DRIPMINIMUM REQUIREMENT) DEPOSITING DRIP TO THE FAUCET CONTRACT EARNS A CONSISTENT 1% DAILY RETURN OF THEIR DRIP (365% MAXIMUM PAYOUT) PASSIVELY. — from the Drip Whitepaper

Here is a snapshot of my faucet(where all deposits are stored).

The available balance represents my 1% daily accrued from the deposits. Every 24 hours, I get 1% of what is in my deposits.

The deposits are all that I have invested into the faucet. This balance is locked into the faucet and cannot be withdrawn.

The claimed balanced represents how much I have cashed out or compounded back into the faucet.

The Max Payout represents the total of Drip I am entitled to claim.

Clean; simple; fun.

And that’s not even the good stuff.

What makes the Drip Network an enticing and viable investment platform is its ability to compound accrued daily interest.

Any time, you can choose to compound your available balance by sending it back into your deposits. This function is called hydrate, and it allows you to grow your initial principle by compounding your daily interest.

By compounding, the balance of the deposits grows, and you begin to yield higher daily interests amounts. Over a long time, this begins to snowball.

Let’s take that initial deposit of 100. By just letting it sit there for a year, it would accrue 1% of daily return for 365 days, bringing you a claimable balance of 365 in the end.

A good return on investment.

However, if you were to compound that available balance daily, your net deposit at the end of the year would be closer to 3700.

Try it now. Take a calculator, begin with a balance of 100 and multiply by 1.01(1%) 365 times. The result should be 3678!

That is something to get excited about and the main reason the Drip Network has been taking off.

Even if the price of the Drip token were to fall drastically over that year, there is a healthy chance that a return of investment would still exist. As long as you compounded regularly.

And the price of the Drip token has been rising steadily!

The Drip Network claims its ingenious sustainability through a number of mechanisms, one being its taxation.

Most actions on the network are taxed and returned to the ecosystem.

All deposits are taxed 10%

All claims are taxed 10%

All sells are taxed 10%

All hydrations are taxed 5%

In addition, there exists a ‘whale tax’ that helps to ensure no single member compromises the health of the ecosystem by withdrawing a large amount at once.

One important metric that initially drew me to the platform was the community. Its members are exuberantly engaged and overwhelmingly positive about the aims and ambitions of the project.

And the growth numbers are phenomenal.

Since I joined in early December, new members have skyrocketed and hit an exponential curve.

December more than doubled the record month of November and January is on pace to nearly double the number of sign-ups in December.

There are over 30 000 members in the Drip faucet already, and January is on pace to receive 20 000 new members alone.

The journey is only beginning, and the community is doing its part in sharing the enthusiasm!

The fact that the network has been around since April shows its sustainability and track record. And mainstream adoption is coming!

2. Once you have connected your wallet, you can exchange BNB for DRIP. You’ll need to approve DRIP in your wallet first.

3. Then go to the FAUCET page and enter a buddy address in the referral section. You can scroll down the page to find the buddy section(you need one to deposit into the faucet). It should look like this!

4. Enter a Buddy address. Consider joining my team(DripToWin) and adding my address for your Buddy: 0x7A0F1202E5B4De6aF4b527221EfdF0FbeB10adD1

5. Deposit at least 1 DRIP into the FAUCET(Ensure you have enough BNB to pay for the gas fees. 0.05 BNB should be enough to get started)

6. You’re setup on DRIP. Let the games begin and get ready to receive 1% daily! Remember to return often to hydrate your available balance to receive compound interest on your deposits!

7. I joined the Drip Network one month ago, looking for a high-yield, sustainable investment. I had very little knowledge of the crypto world but quickly grew confident by immersing myself in the community. The idea of risking something small now, with the potential to let it sit and grow into something exponential in the future, played perfectly into my ambitions.

8. I love thinking about delayed gratification. And the Drip Network is exactly that.

9. I invest now with the hopes of seeing it pay out tremendously in the future.

10. I was fortunate to enter when the price was relatively low(compared to today). My investment has already tripled, and with the growth and excitement of the community, and the backing of a rock-solid dev team, I do not doubt that the Drip ecosystem will grow positively over the coming years.

11. This is by no means financial advice. My only advice would be to invest only what you can afford to lose in all projects concerning crypto. Remember to do your own research as well. Here is the whitepaper for the project. I hope you found this informative and I look forward to seeing you on my team!

Primeiro pensei na solução mais óbvia e falei “porra, eu sou um gênio, inventei alguma coisa”. Pra quem não sabe um dos meus sonhos é inventar alguma coisa. Qualquer coisa mesmo.

Poucos segundos depois notei a obviedade da ideia: provavelmente redes sociais descentralizadas já existiam. E existem, apesar de suas limitações.

É claro que as redes sociais precisam ter um bom visual, com uma interface amigável, e por isso há a opção de descentralizarem o back-end (parte de dados) e centralizarem o front-end (parte visual). É isso que acontece com a Steemit (ver mais a frente).

Também há a opção de utilizarem o front-end de outra empresa, executado de forma independente, e o back-end ser descentralizado. Enfim.

A ideia das redes sociais descentralizadas é justamente tirar esse intermediário (que lucra em cima do usuário e dita as regras) e criar um ambiente mais justo, talvez construído pela comunidade (como o jogo Sandbox), podendo ou não ser baseado em blockchain.

Outro benefício desse tipo de rede é a vantagem oferecida ao usuário anunciante, como se vê aqui: https://bit.ly/3qUmmFz, via @CryptoPedroR.

Se pararmos para pensar, jogos descentralizados já são uma forma de rede social descentralizada, mas com o contexto do jogo. Novamente: Sandbox é um exemplo ótimo.

De volta às redes: duas das mais populares chamam Steemit e Minds. (via MoneyTimes: https://bit.ly/3zzHZii). Descobri outra, similar ao twitter, chamada Peepeth.

O desafio mais claro é a aderência dos usuários. Pessoalmente, eu acho que [no curto prazo] essas redes sociais vão acabar virando um centro de cryptonerds… quem sabe até alguma não pivote para esse nicho?

Sempre que se dá muita liberdade às pessoas, principalmente quando aliada a um certo nível de anonimato, o extremismo tende a dar as caras. E em uma rede social que ninguém controla, como resolveríamos isso? Será que uma política de banimento muito bem definida ajudaria? Se voltarmos a centralizar quem faz as regras cairíamos no mesmo dilema discutido no Twitter. É paradoxal.

Como bem disse a Isabela Cabral no fim deste artigo, há ainda o desafio de “enfrentar processos complexos de armazenamento de informações, manutenção da sistema e depuração”, tudo isso de forma descentralizada.

Enfim, isso foi só uma parte desse mundo de possibilidades que são as redes sociais descentralizadas. Estou começando a estudar o assunto agora e achei que divulgar aqui meus estudos poderia ajudar alguém (inclusive a mim).

E até a próxima.
