[3/9] Ich pflege derzeit für ein Portfolio von Assets (#Cash, #Immobilien, #Aktien, #Edelmetalle und #Krypto) eine selbstgebastelte Excel, die mir per API, je nach Wunsch, aktualisierte Zahlen liefert 💪
[4/9] Kopfzerbrechen hat mir stets nur eine Anlageklasse gemacht, in der sich ständig der #Public-Key und die #Token Anzahl ändert, jedoch kein Automatismus per #REST-#API möglich ist: #Krypto 😅
Aber warum eigentlich? 🧐
[5/9] Möchte man in der #Krypto Welt Zustände per #API abfragen, muss man entweder für jede #Krypto einen #Blockexplorer finden, der einen öffentlichen #API-Zugang anbietet oder aber selbst aktiver Teilnehmer des Ökosystems werden und einen "Read-Only" Reporting-Server aufsetzen
[6/9] Das man sich als Investor keine #Nodes aufsetzt nur um Daten für eine Excel-Tabelle auszulesen, sollte verständlich sein 😉
Die Lösung: api-portal.flare.network
--> "... providing access to blockchains without needing to run blockchain nodes." 🙏
@FlareNetworks haben versprochen auch eine "rate limited", aber freie und öffentliche API zur Verfügung zu stellen
Diese werde ich ganz klassisch per #HTTP-#GET nach meinen #PublicKeys befragen und so meine #Wallet-Informationen auslesen
[8/9] Was ich mir für die Zukunft vorstelle, ist ganz nach dem Model von #CloudFunding, die wöchentlichen $FLR o. $SGB Rewards zu nutzen um die Kosten zu tragen. Schade, dass man später, um den vollen Umfang von #GCP#APIgee nutzen zu können, Google Rechnungen zahlen muss 🫤
[9/9] Auch die Abo-Gebühr klingt derzeit noch so gar nicht nach #web3, mit einer prepaid-Bezahlung, die als Gebühr, monatlich abgezogen wird
Die Idee steht, aber die Feinheiten lassen noch Spielraum zur Verbesserung offen
The TL;DR is that pDomains are restricted environments on the XRPL that let users with permission use certain functions within the domain, like a DEX, in case the user owns the correct credentials. 🧐
[1/🧵] The bullrun seems to be just around the corner, and everyone is teasing us with yield and XRPFi protocols. 🧐
Regardless of whether you decide to hold or sell...
Let's take a look at "Lending" and check if it's worth it. 👇
[2/14] — 1⃣ Money Markets —
Before we do just that, let's quickly clarify a specific word first.
Behind the terms "Lending" and "Borrowing" actually hides another term that you will see from time to time:
🔸 Money Markets
[3/14] — 2⃣ Money Markets —
Besides AMMs, lending is currently the most important pillar for on-chain DeFi, as it removes the middleman in the pooling, management, and lending of funds.
The goal? 🤨
Positive yield or in other words, interest on the liquidity you provide.
[1/🧵] A MASSIVE attack on the JavaScript ecosystem is currently underway. ☹️
Since JavaScript is at the heart of what we use every day to browse the internet, you MUST be extra vigilant.
Let's take a look at a possible solution for the XRP ecosystem. 👇🧵
[2/13] — 1⃣ First things first —
Although the entire JavaScript ecosystem is at risk, the malware appears to be targeting only a few blockchain ecosystems, based on the addresses it uses to steal funds:
‼️ At risk 👇
[3/13] — 2⃣ First things first —
The reason this is such a big deal is because of the sheer volume of weekly downloads of the maliciously patched packages.
[1/🧵] You've probably heard about new yield opportunities with XRP that promise a return of around 20% APY. 🧐
How much truth is there to this, and what happens if you actually connect to @moremarketsxyz and deposit funds? 👇
[2/14] — 1⃣ First things first —
👉 I want you to repeat after me:
"I will not deposit all my XRP into completely new DeFi protocols right after their launch, no matter the yield"
[3/14] — 2⃣ First things first —
When you join any DeFi protocol, start with very small amounts (e.g., 1 XRP) to get a feel for how things work, and try to regularly withdraw everything to test whether you can realize your profits with the protocol or not. 👍
[1/🧵] What's still upcoming and in the pipeline for the XRP Ledger? 🧐
My attempt to summarize what the brilliant @aanchalmalhotre "casually" laid out in a 25-minute talk at XRPL Apex this year. 👇
[2/15] — 1⃣ Key-Challenges —
Privacy and compliance are at odds with each other, and balance is key.
A lot of what the TradFi world is used to and expects still doesn't exist or is purposefully different in blockchains, like transparent transactions or low confidentiality.
[3/15] — 2⃣ Key-Challenges —
Institutions also expect their on-chain operations, aka transactions, to be highly customizable and controllable because of factors like internal risk management.
👉 They expect the XRPL to be programmable for their dedicated policies.
