The LuckChain development team has just introduced a new concept to the cryptocurrency betting community. They have done this by creating a decentralized betting platform that is not only provably fair but also doesn’t rely on customers to use servers or websites to play the games. How has LuckChain achieved this? The games are integrated into the QT and rely on blockchain hash string verifications that are visible for all to see. “The core of betting game is the generation of blocks. we use blockchain consensus mechanism to guarantee the uniqueness and unpredictability of each block, eliminating the possibility of man cheating.” – LuckChain Developer You will not have to wonder if the games you are playing are fair, you can see for yourself. Also, you will not have to wait for deposits to clear or wonder if the website owner will allow you to withdrawal your winnings. The reason? All of the gaming will occur within the safety and privacy of your own wallet. “Our team is made up...

Synereo , a company developing a decentralized tech stack , allowing web applications to exist without centralized servers, has got a major boost lately for its plan to “fundamentally redesign the way the internet works”, as its company slogan goes. The Tel-Aviv-based startup concluded a highly successful funding campaign last week, raising more than $4.7 million USD, selling both equity and AMPs – the platform’s innate cryptocurrency.

Byteball is a new type of consensus algorithm that isn’t based on the typical blockchain already implemented in all the major cryptocurrencies. There is no mining or block chains and it isn’t based on either POS or POW. The system uses something called DAG (Directed Acyclic Graph) which references one or more earlier transactions at the time that new transactions are occurring. I like to see things as simple as possible, and when I learned how Bitcoin and other cryptocurrencies are designed, I wondered do we need two separate entities — transactions and blocks, maybe we can get rid of blocks and build a simpler system? – Anton Churyumov, Byteball Lead Developer The native currency of Byteball is called Bytes; in fact the technology allows users to create their own tokens within it. Moreover, Byteball assets can be regulatory compliant to serve the mainstream financial sector. Users can issue any other tokens (assets), e.g. to represent debt. The debt can be expressed e.g. in fi...
