If you are not all in on XLM, you are really fucking up.
Benefits of Stellar:
- ICOs - Smart-contracts; just not Turing-complete - Faster than all other networks - Decentralized (fuck you autists) - Transactions cost next to nothing - IBM running the world-wide network nodes and shilling Stellar (dashboard.stellar.org/) - Can easily replace Ethereum (Ethereum cannot handle real world transactions) - MOBI+KIN chose Stellar over Ethereum (medium.com/kin-contributors/kin-stellar-sdk-initial-draft-839afcaaf55c) - Stellar consensus protocol: 1000s tx / second (global scale) - Stellar forces the use of XLM as the cost for using the network - Inflation distributed weekly to those who own XLM (lumenaut.net/)
Other XLM/Stellar Use: Lightyear.io (for-profit arm of Stellar)
- ** THIS FRIDAY - 16 FEB ** Video Interview - Official IBM news on their IUPS/GFTN secret plans; Hyper/Stellar Ledger - Could be 16 FEB - Stripe BTC replacement announcement circa April - FairX Beta - April/May

The essential difference between Vechain and Walton is the layer at which the blockchain is implemented. Vechain has patents on the txID-reading RFID chips with memory, which allows the blockchain to be implemented in the foundational level through the RFIDs. They are world leaders in chip technology, and make their own chips. Walton does not make their own chips. They outsource the hardware, and have the hardware made compatible with their blockchain via API. So their blockchain is implemented several layers up in the application layer, through business-centralized control. So, Walton is inherently less decentralized and less secure.
This is the essential difference, and it's not a deal-breaker for Walton, but it is a fact, and it does matter. Vechain is somewhat ironically better at authentication than Walton for this reason, despite Walton's original main use-case as an anti-counterfeiting product (they've since expanded their use-case into cold logistics and other areas).
But there are other advantages to making your own chips. Walton is using someone else's hardware and then repurposing it for their blockchain. Vechain has built the chip from the ground up to be compatible with the blockchain and improved the standard chip to be much more advanced, with encryption, fine minute movement detection, anti-collision logic to prevent skipping, low voltage technology so the chips can last more than 20 years, and other advancements over standard chips. Making their own chips also makes them cheaper. Standard RFIDs are 15 to 20 cents. Vechain's are less than 5.

Gabriel White
Not sure exact time, Friday for sure it seems

Owen Mitchell
Man what you talkin about
Gabriel Richardson
stellarterm.com SDEX is already spiffy as fuck. you can store/send basically any coin, fast as fuck, cheap.
Joshua Young
can confirm
Matthew Garcia
hes talking about a renowned mod on reddit giving info and/or a speculation that something happens on the end of the stream on friday
Jason Morris
ALL IN
Sebastian Morris
Pretty good coins too. Scooping up RMT, SLT, and STEMchain. XLM itself may not go too high, but the ICO's will do good.
Joshua Ortiz
>- Smart-contracts; just not Turing-complete Why would you ever want to flaunt that? That's a minus 1 in anyone's book.
Cameron Price
when is sideways coin going to moon again so I can stop calling it sideways coin
Camden Foster
Cool. Thanks for the info
Charles Roberts
>Ripple is going up against XLM+IBM
they will be eaten alive
Connor Rivera
...
Jason Young
>go directly to those links wow i cant believe IBM himself is a stinky linky
Angel Jenkins
Sorry sweetie.
Kayden Johnson
Should I be hedging my linkies with XLM?
Michael Clark
HOW MANY LUMENS DO I NEED TO MAKE IT
Alexander Price
why the FUCK are you owning ANY link?
Charles Wood
pls this is a serious conversation just tell me how many I need to be a guaranteed millionaire by Q4 2018 thank
Levi Williams
why the FUCK arent you "owning" ANY link?
dumb motherfucker, your sentence made my brain hurt
Alexander White
100k If you do not sell in the SR, you'll be more or less set for life
Lucas Diaz
Please tell me RMT is worth it, I’ve got 140k
Levi Murphy
>another erc20 token, out of 20,000 others so unique
Noah Evans
My largest coin is XLM, but it worries me when I see "XLM Marines" and "Link Marines" posts.
I did like the pump on Tuesday. Increased my holdings.
Austin Stewart
lets hope this friday gives us a nice boost
Chase Williams
shill me on XLM pls. It seems nice but limited
Luis Diaz
> Decentralized lol
Nathaniel Powell
read the OP you fucking nigger
Carter Howard
I don't see any reason that XLM would ever appreciate in value other than an empty speculation bubble developing. And what's the purpose of nodes voting on how the funds are distributed? That sounds like fucking nonsense
Ethan Phillips
>According to Lund, though, the banks use of Stellar’s digital currency is likely to be temporary. He predicts that, in the next year, central banks will begin issuing digital currencies of their own, and that these will become an integral part of blockchain-based money transfers. fortune.com/2017/10/16/ibm-blockchain-stellar/
yikes
Jackson Bell
WTF is SR. I have over 60k in XLM and I want to start trading on the stellar network
Kayden Martin
Are you paying attention to this, nigger?
Brayden Johnson
I think eventually Cardano will overpower Stellar and pierce its butthole with its mighty throbbing ambitions, but I definitely hold Stellar, it’s a good project. I know it will moon/become engorged
Carson Watson
on xlm platform though
Aiden Martinez
You'll make it for sure with that much. From looking into it, the main guy behind it started SureGifts which was successful. Very good team and they will expand to Asia, South America, and more. Should be pretty good if they're successful. They will solve the problem of remittances sent from people to their relatives. RMT, you send money fast because of Stellar and low fees/no middleman. I have 2k, but am reaching for 50k. Gonna make $35,000 if it reaches 50 cents.
Evan Harris
fuck 100k fml
William Russell
Yes, central banks will be digitizing their currency, but will take many years. Initially just seems Chile, Turkey, Singapore, and Hong Kong are participating. You still have the bridge question, XLM fits in there.
Singapore is the largest hub for FX in Asia. Turns out Stellar hiring jobs there.
Joshua Lewis
Their system seems kind of inelegant at first glance, and positioning themselves as some sort of charity really rustles my fucking jimmies but I'll definitely do more reading
Aiden Lewis
reminder to join the inflation pool
Carson Adams
oh look, more jobs in Singapore and older ones filled
Bump, you fags have little time until Fridays announcement. Few warnings left.
Grayson Carter
FML, "big surprises" have almost always been underwhelming and created a dump. Maybe I can sell half my stack on the bump and buy the dip. We'll see if it's real news or not
Robert Rivera
sorry guys XLM is the future. Buy now or stay poor for ever. moon soon
Levi Walker
Are there really people dumb enough to invest in a project whose lead dev has a history of destroying or attempting to destroy his former projects (mt. Gox, ripple) and who appointed his retarded gook girlfriend to the board? Their shady foundation owns 80% of total supply of lumens. What the hell is the point of decentralization when one man and his gf can destroy the value of your tokens with one drunken tweet?
Leo Myers
Thanks mate, I feel a bit more at ease now
Gabriel Fisher
XLM 33% of portfolio here bro. Just sold down a little to beef up my QTUM and LSK. Apart from NEO which is just fucking stupid because you can't fraction the coins literally can't think of another Alt that isn't a shitcoin, or requires ETH to move it, or has some massive feescam going on if you want to take it off the exchange. Stellar is for fucking winners.
