/1 A question people often ask is, why do we need so many DEXs? Take @THORChain and @sifchain for example; It's easy to think they are almost identical. In some respects, they do have similarities. There are some notable differences though. $ROWAN $RUNE #DEX
/2 I recently made another table highlighting some of the differences between 3 #Cosmos DEXs and @Uniswap. It is easier to distinguish between them when you look past their exterior. $OSMO $ATOM $UNI #UNISWAP
/3 I thought of doing this comparison however, mainly because many people find it much harder to differentiate between @THORChain and @sifchain. The table above shows how they differ in some aspects and more importantly, how they can compliment each other.
/4 Both will have #IBC integrated based on Cosmos-SDK tendermint (POS) consensus. This leads me to believe that there will certainly be interplay between the DEXs in the manner as depicted in the table under the title collaboration and possibly in other ways as well.
/5 Both will also inevitably be massive drivers in their respective specialized niches (Thorchain with collaterised lending and Sifchain with deep margin trading). So, as has been said by both projects numerous times, they are not set on competing.
/6 Both @Thorchain and @sifchain can co-exist in a decentralized landscape and attract enormous amounts of liquidity to their respective DEXs.
/7 If we support a decentralized future, we should not squabble over which of the two DEXs is better. We should support and champion the success of both. The same holds true for most DEXs. docs.thorchain.org docs.sifchain.finance
/1 A completely decentralised, private, secure and censorship resistant web experience is not a pipe dream. Two $COSMOS projects in combination can make this possible for all. If you haven’t guessed already, I’m talking about @Sentinel_co $DVPN and @akashnet_ $AKT.
/2 Why do people use a VPN? Primarily to keep their data private by concealing their banking information, browsing history, account passwords etc.
/3 However, leading centralised VPN companies have been known to store and collect user data, whilst at the same time being exposed to data breach vulnerabilities. This means your data is not really private or secure despite using centralised VPNs.
/1 The recent announcement that @unizen_io is in collaboration with @sifchain is a very big deal. Here’s why; Unizen intends to build an ecosystem which will provide its users the opportunity to access liquidity on both centralised and decentralised exchanges.
/2 They will do this through modular implementation wherein liquidity on any connected chain (#DEX or #CEX such as #BSC, Sifchain or #Uniswap) can be accessed directly through Unizen.
/3 The reason why this is more than mere convenience based can be illustrated by the use of an example of the utility of the Unizen platform. Let’s assume a user wants to buy 1000 $ETH.
/1 Thought of doing a thread on Akash $AKT, explaining why it could be a game-changer in the decentralised cloud computing space. @akashnet_ has leveraged blockchain to build a decentralised cloud hosting solution that seeks to disrupt the cloud computing industry. #AWS#Azure
/2 Akash is the first distributed peer-to-peer open cloud computing marketplace. Akash is a serverless computing platform. Think #Uber, think #AirBnb. Akash cuts out the middleman in a similar vein.
/3 Hence, Akash is positioned to disrupt giants in the industry such as #AWS, #Azure and #Google, much the same way Airbnb disrupted the lodging and vacation rental industry.
