Thanks. Yubikey looks simple

[muffster] 19/12/2017 08:13

Security.As anyone storing Cedex coins may know security for your wallet is important. Seems to me that people need to use a VPN, store wallet to encrypted USB, like ironkey or Trezor use a single time email account with 2 factor authentication and ideally encrypt their PC.Any thoughts?

[xx33xx] 19/12/2017 08:11

Good start.

Still holding all mine.

The Diamond Wizard
While bitcoin claims the blockchain headlines, recently cracking the £11,000 per bitcoin mark, advisers should be aware of the financial and consumer tech that is being built on the back of the cryptocurrency craze. At the recent London Blockchain Summit, several innovations were on show, one of the more interesting of which was a new platform called Cedex that promises to turn diamonds into a new asset class. At present, it is possible to invest in commodities such as gold, silver and oil via financial instruments such as ETFs but not diamonds - in part because of ‘fungibility issues' (essentially, each diamond is different). Now Cedex has built a platform that benchmarks each listed diamond's value, which means diamonds will become investible like any other financial asset in a transparent and secure way using blockchain. It will be possible to invest in individual diamonds or shares in an ETF-style basket of the precious stones, as well as enabling the buying and selling of personal diamonds on the platform.

Verdict: Promising lead

Thanks Euclid.What's the price of a cedex coin at ipo please

[euclid5] 18/12/2017 21:27

Jp, it should have some correlation with the price of Tech - not a 100% basis, due to volatility of the price of Cedex coins along with the risks of cryptocurrencies in general.

Hpwever if Cedex sell all 50m tokens & raise £30m plus & the tokens increase in value that will be good news - prefer not to see a sharp spike in Cedex coin price - but a rather gradual rise

[muffster] 18/12/2017 21:22

Tech option to own 90%

[saw89] 18/12/2017 21:21

CEDEX retain 23% of all coins generated

[jp1962] 18/12/2017 20:47

By cedex I mean the coin of course

[jp1962] 18/12/2017 20:46

When cedex is launched and increases in value does it directly affect TECH's market cap and how?

[saw89] 18/12/2017 20:40

BTL.TSX is developing blockchain enterprise applications and now has a mkt cap in the hunderds of millions.

TECH has a very long way upwards to go....

Another share im in Bango has enabled its platform for Bitcoin. Really see crypto currencies at an early stage. The Bango Platform has enabled a wide range of Direct Carrier Billing routes, mobile operator wallets and other payment methods for its customers. Over the last few years, people have asked Bango for a view on when Bitcoin wallets or direct Bitcoin, J-coin, Ethereum or whatever might be supported.Bango has prototyped using Bitcoin wallets as payment instruments, so the platform is ready for Bango merchant partners to use Bitcoin wallets when they become interesting to those customers. There will be no technical work for them to accept it as it's like another Mobile Network Operator (MNO) wallet.Large merchants have told Bango that first they want mass adoption of Bitcoin – at present it is low. Secondly, the volatility of Bitcoin is a problem. Major merchants operate on small margins when reselling content or services. They normally buy in a fiat currency (for example US dollars) and sell in a fiat currency. Low volatility and years of experience hedging or cross currency de-risking helps if these currencies differ.With Bitcoin they see no such protection – they are very nervous about volatility, and Bitcoin is very volatile. They could sell a $100 item for $100 bitcoin and then suddenly find they only have $90 worth of Bitcoin.If and when Bitcoin becomes interesting to Bango customers, the platform is ready to help them.

good post Tomboy - extracts below:

With the partnership, CEDEX will be able to leverage IDEX’s unparalleled reputation and know-how to reinforce their game-changing technology. At the same time, IDEX will benefit from using the CEDEX technology to better accommodate investors that already use their exchange, and to bring in new investors. The two companies will compliment each other nicely, as IDEX is directed towards B2B exchanges, while CEDEX is designed for B2C exchanges. By joining forces, both companies stand to expand their share of the market while also helping the diamond market to grow as a whole.

Founder and Chairman of IDEX Online, Ehud Cohen, commented on the partnership, saying, “We believe that the diamond industry stands to gain by connecting with CEDEX B2C offerings, vision, and trading models. The integration into the financial world and the transformation of diamonds into a new financial asset class have been a key driving force behind IDEX’s activity since the company’s establishment. Joining forces with CEDEX enables us to better serve our diamond suppliers and traders.”

IDEX already boasts a sparkling reputation as the prominent market leader in the diamond industry. They are the leading online diamond trading platform for professional diamond traders located in major cities for diamonds, which include Mumbai, Antwerp, Ramat Gan, and New York City.

More than 7,000 professional traders are actively participating on the IDEX exchange. Impressively, over 75% of the overall supply chain inventory is featured on the IDEX system. All of that has helped to make IDEX diamond pricing products and data one of the industry standards. IDEX’s Diamond Index is widely used and followed in the industry and has been published continuously since 2004, making it the oldest index based on actual listing data.

Jamie Dimon Cannot Short Bitcoin- Says Billionaire Winklevoss Twins

By all accounts, I know people who spoke to him about cryptocurrencies four years ago. He gets it, he understands it, probably better than me and he views it, I think as a brand new competitor to JP Morgan. So he understands that JP Morgan collects a lot of fees for providing storage of wealth in a secure way that’s judgment resistant to clients and Bitcoin does it an order of magnitude better.”
