π± The Blockchain Transmission Protocol (BTP) is coming to @helloiconworld ($ICX) and we are all excited. Imagine being able to send all your favorite tokens to all your favorite (DeFi & NFT) platforms!
No barriers? No bridges? π€
I'm trying to understand and made this thread π
@helloiconworld π± 1/7:
Will I just be able to randomly send $ETH to a @binance Smart Chain address, and how does $ICX fit in here?
Let's start at the beginning π First of all: BTP compatible transactions must include sender, recipient, service name, serial number, and service data.
@helloiconworld@binance π± 2/7:
Next, participating blockchains must implement three components through Smart Contracts:
π BSH (service handler)
π BMV (message verifier)
π³ BMC (message center)
I believe these three BTP components are relatively easy to implement! They communicate as follows:
@helloiconworld@binance π± 3/7:
Let's say Dave sends some tokens cross-chain... His wallet manager Hana from @ReliantNode will include sender, recipient, service name, serial number, and service data (?) π. As the transaction is posted, the πBSH picks up the required BTP data from his blockchain 1.
@helloiconworld@binance@ReliantNode π± 4/7:
The πBSH passes the data to the π³BMC, which then reads the BTP data, verifies it and passes it to $ICX Relay (Relay = application operating independent of blockchains). This $ICX relay seems to float in between the blockchains that are communicating with eachother.
@helloiconworld@binance@ReliantNode π± 5/7:
$ICX Relay now has the essential and verified data from blockchain 1, and passes it on to the π³BMC on blockchain 2. The data then flows through the πBMV, which decodes the information, and on to the πBSH, which communicates the BTP transaction data to blockchain 2.
@helloiconworld@binance@ReliantNode π± 6/7: Again
Blockchain 1: Dave makes transaction β‘οΈ πBSH β‘οΈ π³BMC β‘οΈ $ICX Relay application
Blockchain 2: $ICX Relay application β‘οΈ π³BMC β‘οΈ πBMV β‘οΈ πBSH β‘οΈ transaction completed.
π¬ NOTE: Blockchains that do not support smart contracts will only be able to SEND through BTP.
@helloiconworld@binance@ReliantNode π± 7/7: Correct me if I'm wrong!
For BTP to function, participating blockchains MUST implement BTP components.
Wallet managers + Exchanges MUST send along all the right information with transactions...

π€π¦Who's trying their luck in the $ICX Squid Game?
π£ More users playing the game = Higher rewards to win. For every player, ICONFi will add an additional 10 ICX into the piggy bank. The maximum amount will be 45,600 ICX, a handsome amount!
π£ It starts Nov 8th, so there's enough time to pass KYC and register. You can register here: docs.google.com/forms/d/e/1FAIβ¦
π£ From Nov 8th, there will be a game everyday until Nov 12th β 5 days in a row. You must survive all 5 ICONFi Games to be the final survivor.
π£ Games require you to submit the link to your Twitter posting via @Google Form, this should easy if you know how to use a computer π»
π£ Number of surviving players will be announced right here on @Twitter after every game!
So about a week ago, @helloiconworld announced a 'Strategic Investment in Bit2Me'. Sounds good of course, but what does this achieve?
Who is @bit2me and why are they launching their B2M Token within 10 days? This one is exciting.. This one is for the "wen marketing" crowd!

@helloiconworld@bit2me πͺπΈ 1/6: Bit2Me Origin
Bit2Me is a Spain based company which focusses on encouraging cryptocurrency adoption around the world. This sounds sooo vague, yet Bit2Me has been a profitable company since its inception in 2014! More impressive Bit2Me facts down below:
@helloiconworld@bit2me π 2/6: Bit2Me Growth
Revenues have grown by 100% from 2017 to 2019, and by 150% in 2020.
Bit2Me's transaction volume has grown exponentially, achieving a year-on-year growth of 1,200% in 2020 and a total transaction volume that has exceeded β¬1 billion.
$ICE blockchain.. 1:1 airdrop for $ICX holders.. EVM & eWASM compatibility..
What does all of this mean? π€·ββοΈ
I found a lot of information on the @helloiconworld Medium page: tinyurl.com/4k8nv2ra and I enjoy putting it into my own words for followers to read!

@helloiconworld π§ 1/5: ICE Blockchain
As $ICX and the ICON Blockchain inch closer to achieving the dream of interoperability, it seems like the ICON Foundation at @helloiconworld is looking further than that. "A new blockchain will bring about a new application hub for the ICON ecosystem."
@helloiconworld π§ 2/5: Harmony
As $ICE Blockchain will be focussed on becoming the main application layer, the current ICON network continues to optimize for BTP and subsequently bright interoperability future. ICON Foundation: "Use BTP ... it is the most secure and decentralized on the market"
