On the same day, the price rose 17.5 percent to 56.4 cents.
Stellar
Stellar is an open-source protocol for value exchange. It was founded in 2014 led by Jed McCaleb and Joyce Kim with a number of board members. The protocol is supported by the non-profit Stellar Development Foundation.
Wikipedia describes the design of Stellar as follows: Stellar is an open-source protocol for exchanging money. Servers run a software implementation of the protocol, and use the Internet to connect to and communicate with other Stellar servers, forming a global value exchange network. Each server stores a record of all “accounts̶1; on the network. These records are stored in a database called the “ledger”. Servers propose changes to the ledger by proposing “transactions”, which move accounts from one state to another by spending the account’s balance or changing a property of the account. All of the servers come to agreement on which set of transactions to apply to the current ledger through a process called “consensusR21;. The consensus process happens at a regular interval, typically every 2 to 4 seconds. This keeps each server’s copy of the ledger in sync and identical.
At its launch Stellar was based on Ripple. However, the protocol was later updated with a new consensus algorithm. The code for the new algorithm was released in April of 2015
The official name of the coin associated with Stellar is lumen, XLM.
Real world applications of Stellar
Several nonprofit organizations and businesses are using Stellar for their financial infrastructure particularly in the developing world
The Praekelt Foundation, has integrated Stellar into Yumi that is an open-source messaging app that allows young girls in sub-Saharan Africa to save money on airtime credits.
Another example is Oradian, a cloud-based banking software company, that is planning to use Stellar to connect microfinance institutions in Nigeria.
In December of last year Stellar announced more partnerships in the Philippines, India and West Africa.
In October of 2017, Stellar announced it had partnered with IBM to increase the speed of global payments. Consulting firm Deloitte is also a partner.
Stellar's transaction speed is very fast
In contrast to coins such as bitcoin, transactions through Stellar take only two to five seconds. Users can quickly exchange government-backed fiat currencies such as U.S. dollars into Euros and vice versa.
Jed McCaleb
McCaleb is an American programmer. He is widely known for creating peer-to-peer technologies such as eDonkey used for sharing files.
He was also involved with the large Japanese bitcoin exchange Mt. Gox but it was later sold to Mark Kapeles. The exchange eventually was closed after many of its bitcoins were stolen and the exchange filed for bankruptcy after scandalously bad if not criminal management problems.
In 2011 McCaleb founded another company Ripple that also focuses on payments and rose considerably in value last year. As a recent Digital Journal article reports Ripple is now the second largest cryptocoin in terms of market capitalization. McCaleb left Ripple in 2013 and went on to lead the development of Stellar in 2014. Ripple is also working with financial institutions in South Korea and Japan using the ripple coin XRP.
McCaleb is now focused on Stellar. The Stellar website claims that it operates on a non-profit basis. It covers operating costs through selling some of its digital currency holdings and through donations.

I reckon 6p is achievable within 8 months.

[thegrumpster] 07/1/2018 12:51

"This is 12p end of"

Your lunch?

[thegrumpster] 07/1/2018 12:30

"Ok I'm done on the whole subject, just heed what I say..."


Of course you're not.

You're about as truthful as viera.

At least he/she/it is amusing.



Incidentally you are the poster that has named an individual and suggested that he is part of another poster's investment club, with the suggestion that there is some kind of wrongdoing going on.

Perhaps you'd better delete your post anyway, before someone emails it to him.

[thegrumpster] 07/1/2018 12:26

PW. Numpty.....nitwit?

...... another pathetic attempt to be inciteful?

Must try harder.

Number 3 on the most watched shares keep it up PW you are keeping us on the radar.

[joshondale] 07/1/2018 11:34

Oak, you may have grounds for stalking !! Lol

[pwhite73] 07/1/2018 11:31

oakville - "Unbelievable!"

What is unbelievable. When I first suggested a placing at BLU was maybe in the offing this was your response.

oakville - 27 Dec 2017 - 12:35:17 - 3971 of 4452 - "PWhite. I have just arrived at the TSX (snowing big time) I deal with proper people in the know. None of my close allies have said there will be a placing."

Ok I'm done on the whole subject, just heed what I say. Hoping for a good week on BLU.

Gone

just filter the peasant, as one suspects 95% already have !!!

[oakville] 07/1/2018 11:22

Unbelievable ! It must be close to midday in the UK I suggest you take a walk somewhere.

[pwhite73] 07/1/2018 11:18

All I'm saying is that you need to be a bit more careful what you post. You have just posted one of your colleagues owns Port Vale Football Club. If you are telling the truth all anyone has to do is look up PVFC on wikipedia and it states the owner is millionaire Norman Smurthwaite.

Is he part of your investment club?. Did he want it made public knowledge he has investments in BLU.

I suggest you delete that post. When you do I will delete mine.

[stoxx67] 07/1/2018 11:08

oakville, i do not read the comments of PWhite.

you have stated you do not work in a trading capacity, on TSX, for an investment institution therefore one suspects you do not come under compliance dept and there are chinese walls between all departments in a multi capacity investment institution anyway.

don't rise to the bait.

i really do believe that blu is staggeringly undervalued at this time and have placed my funds accordingly.

just a game of patience and time now, as investment typically is.

viera, presto and others are all liars. They can fool a complete nitwit like you but not me.

When share bulletin boards started in the 1990s it was common to accuse certain posters of being paid rampers or derampers. Dare I say some may have worked for the city in the day time but it was widely agreed among intelligent investors the only people who received money from posts were the BB owners like ADVFN as people paid for a level of service as part of their subscription.

We are now in 2018. There are so many other social media outlets where people can spread their investment messages for free that if you still think there is such a thing as paid rampers or derampers it only points to what a complete Numpty you are.

[oakville] 07/1/2018 10:55

PWhite. One of my Colleagues owns a football club, do I have to go the FA and tell them?

Get a life man.

[thegrumpster] 07/1/2018 10:39

"We bought over $20k of BLU yesterday....."


No different from viera, presto and others posting their supposed multi-million buys and sells, on this board and Lse.

Trying to nobble a positive poster are we?

Do you get overtime working at weekends?

[thegrumpster] 07/1/2018 10:35

".....just be careful what you post because I suspect there is more to your position as an investor than you are letting on."

There certainly seems to be more to your position as a (paid) poster /(supposed investor) than you are letting on.

[pwhite73] 07/1/2018 10:14

oakville - "Haha. True."

No problems but just be careful what you post because I suspect there is more to your position as an investor than you are letting on. That is not the first time you have stated you work on the TSX. Furthermore on several occasions you have stated you pool investment money together to buy BLU shares.

oakville - 03 Jan 2018 - 17:32:55 - "I now have 6 colleagues joining me here. We will be buying $18k worth over the next 2 days."

oakville - 04 Jan 2018 - 12:33 - "We bought 3 million this morning as promised. Not showing anywhere yet."

oakville - 04 Jan 2018 - 16:28 - "Well hopefully the $30,000 we paid today at 0.0508 will give the stock a kick up the backside"

oakville - 05 Jan 2018 - 08:25 - "We bought over $20k of BLU yesterday"
