#Vechain X What is it (not)
$VET is not a supplychain (SC) coin. VeChain is a public blockchain (like $ETH) on-which you can build anything you want.
The reason a lot of people think that $VET is a SC coin is that a lot of the first usecases built on VeChain are SC related.

This is because the whole idea of VeChain started with the CEO Sunny Lu who worked at Louis Vuitton as Chief Information Officer on an internal project called "track and trace". They wanted to expand that project and that's how he discovered blockchain technology. Image

Sunny noticed that 90% of the blockchain startups were developing apps related to financial services, which is considered difficult because of the strict compliance regulations.
He also realized if you have no commercial activities on the blockchain and just go
$VET
4/8
bare-handedly to develop and promote blockchain apps, you are playing in an empty field.
So when VeChain started in 2015, the idea was to begin with traceability and anti-counterfeit. The next step was to put more commercial activities on the blockchain.

Once you established a business ecosystem, it would become a natural move to provide the financial support on the blockchain.
You can already see the expansion of usecases. Healthcare, Certification, Carbon credits, Sustainability, Gas industry. The list goes on.

6/8
This rapid expansion is due to the consensus algorithm called Proof of Authority whereby 101 companies put their reputation at stake. This results in a decentralized IaaS, existing of 101 companies with 101 different business models, services and client networks.

You could see VeChain as a decentralized IaaS whereby you pay $VTHO to use that IaaS (store data / run smartcontracts). The same way you pay AWS credits to pay for Amazon Web Services, a centralized IaaS.
( $VTHO is part of VeChains economic model)
$VET Image
8/8
So, the VeChain blockchain, with the 101 different companies, $VET and $VTHO, is column 2.

One of VeChain's products is called ToolChain; a kind of Wordpress for different usecases.

ToolChain is a dApp using the blockchain.
You could put Toolchain in column 3 / 4. Image

#Wootrade X WOO X
WOO X is the professional trading GUI. The goal of WOO X is to let traders access all that liquidity aggregated on the Wootrade network, while also giving institutional clients a portal to manage their accounts.
$WOO
1/3 Image
2/3
WOO X is uniquely suited to people who trade a lot, and prefer not to lose money to fees. That’s not to say we discriminate against smaller traders. The benefits and design are just better suited for people who like to push the trading platform harder and faster.
$WOO
3/3
The economic model of WOO X is based on users staking WOO to access the network. Users who stake will be entitled to a number of perks including zero-fee trading and bonus yields in WOO.

So I have 8000 VET focused tweets, I post about some blockchains /dApps and suddenly I`m a shitcoin shiller and traitor?

Thread


I wanted to learn more and make a kind of abstract. Also a little bit of teasing to my friends.
Like I said: I don't hold ICX

I'm reading about other coins to learn how their value flows go and add it to this thread, so it's easy to compare and see how awesome Vechain works. Also trying to bring VET outside of our bubble.

#Uniswap
I started reading about Uniswap AMM, an amazing tech. ImageImage

I started reading about how it works and the other (shady) coins like . Very interesting tech so I gave Uniswap credits for what they do (pic 1). They had no coin at that time.
Got more interested in Uniswap and was looking for a solid coin. (Pic 2) ImageImage

#Uniswap X AMM Chaining
Today I posted about this person that bought $22 dollar of and paid $42 dollar of fee.

I was wondering why it was so much and found out he was using AMM Chaining.

A nice feature of a AMM DEX is Automated Market Maker Chaining; AMM Chaining.

You can basically trade any token for another token as long as there is a pair with liquidity for both tokens on the AMM DEX.
As you can see in the above case:
He had .
He wanted .

The protocol automatically traded for and bought with that . Image

The only problem is that the fees are 'a bit' high. However, I do think it's an amazing feature which will be used a lot in the future once the fees are fixed. Image

#VeChain X Value Stream
"VTHO generation rate, VTHO price, VTHO/Gas price"
It seems pretty complicated to understand, but in the end this PoA based public blockchain is a revenue stream for 101 companies with 101 different business models, services and client networks.
1/5
Image
2/5
These companies only care about getting as much value as possible for providing this public cloud service.

More usage = more value going to the nodes; their revenue.
This value is mainly generated by VET holders since only 30% of a token can be used twice for tx fees.
Image
3/5
If the token is used a second time to pay for a tx fee, only 9% of the initial token is left.
This model creates a very low token velocity* which is very good for the VET holders since they are the only people who bring new value in the ecosystem.

#VeChain X Offline Transaction Signing
Did you know you can sign txs offline with the official mobile VeChainThor Wallet?

- Download the wallet app on an (old) phone and put it on flightmodes (offline). Create a wallet (private/public key) and store it somewhere safe.
1/5
Image
2/5
- Download the wallet app on your online phone and "observe" the wallet (public key) you already created on the offline phone.

This means your private keys are not on this online phone; You can't sign txs, but can view the wallet in the blockchain.
Image
3/5
- If you want to send coins, use your online phone to create a tx.

To sign the tx we need a private key which is only on the offline phone.

- We send the tx data from your online phone to your offline phone by scanning a QR-Code with your offline phone.
