Blockchains and tokens:

Coinbase : April 2021 Coinbase became the first crypto company to go public in the stock exchange.

CoinMarketCap : You can find coin prices, price API and also contract address on coinmarketcap. For example, Pancakeswap may ask you to enter token address. I sometimes use CoinMarketCap to look up the address. But watch out there are forked, obsolete, outdates addresses. I got stuck with some hard forked old tokens, which I had to transfer at a loss.

Multisig wallet: (vocabulary)

""A multisig wallet is a wallet shared by two or more users called copayers. Depending on the kind of wallet, the number of signatures required to sign a transaction will be lower or equal to the number of copayers of the wallet. For example, a 3-3 wallet is a multisig wallet that is shared by three people and requires three signatures to sign a transaction. A 2-3 wallet is a multisig wallet that is shared by three people and requires two signatures to sign a transaction. You may also see “2 of 3” to indicate the number of copayers needed.""

Comment: keep in mind, it is hard enough for one person to keep track of crypto wallet passphrase, if the signature holders forget or sadly pass away, this can really be a problem. 


Walmart, cryptonews :

Coinmart: Walmart announced plans to allow customers to buy Bitcoin from Coinstar kiosks in some of its US stores.

Polygon - What is polygon $MATIC ? "Polygon is the leading platform for Ethereum scaling and infrastructure development. Its growing suite of products offers developers easy access to all major scaling and infrastructure solutions: L2 solutions (ZK Rollups and Optimistic Rollups), sidechains, hybrid solutions, stand-alone and enterprise chains, data availability solutions, and more. Polygon’s scaling solutions have seen widespread adoption with 3000+ applications hosted, ~600M total transactions processed, ~60M unique user addresses, and $5B+ in assets secured." polygon, source gitcoin. The skill of ethereum development should be transferrable for polygon developers. Plug and play, replace a few configurations.

Smart contracts: 

Tezos: tezos community NFTs, Tezos art work are relatively more affordable. It is popular in Latin America (Red Bull racing in Mexico) and South Asia (Moon + Mike Shinoda). Tezos likes to say it is energy efficient, greenest, efficient, because it uses proof-of-stake instead of proof-of-work. It also collaborates with Cambridge on environment credit market place. https://tezos.com/ Partnerships: McLaren racing, Red Bull Racing.

Validator: personally, sometimes I wonder if staking rewards help platforms become large validators, who in term earn validator (mining-like) rewards, and then only give a portion of these back to the user?!
