## Basics

* Bumper is a decentralized price protection protocol.

## Audits & Exploits

* Bug bounty program can be found [insert here].
* Has been audited (15-8-2021).

## Technology

* Flashpaper can be found here.

### How it works

* From Yield Farmer (15-8-2021):

*"The gist of Bumper is straightforward: the protocol connects Takers, i.e. people who pay premiums to protect their ETH from price crashes, and Makers, i.e. people who supply underpinning liquidity in stablecoins in exchange for earning premiums + token rewards.*

*Accordingly, Takers transfer risk to Makers and Makers are thus compensated for this service. For a better understanding of how this system works under the hood, consider diving into Bumper’s flashpaper."*

"*A data structure in which all accounts each have their own blockchain, rather than competing with others on a central chain. Consensus is generated through representative voting, where accounts can freely choose their representative at any time with an update of their account chain, thereby providing more control for users to decide who validates transactions."*

## Basics

* Based in New York City
* From Forbes Blockchain 50 (Apr 16, 2019):

"*This little-known ADP spinoff controls 80% of the U.S. proxy-voting and shareholder-communications business. Broadridge has a team working to move its core proxy-voting services to a distributed ledger, allowing stockholders to cast their own votes on corporate resolutions and directors in real time—without going through the custodial banks that hold the shares. Broadridge is an investor, alongside banks such as BNP and Citi, in Digital Asset Holdings, which played a key role in the development of private blockchain ledgers. Full profile"*

* From Forbes Blockchain 50 (19-2-2020):

*"Last summer, ADP spinoff Broadridge acquired blockchain software built by financial services firm Northern Trust designed to help manage the entire life cycle of private equity investments. The tool automates the manual middle office functions of PE transactions, like managing legal agreements, and streamlines the process of gathering data and communicating with investors. It’s currently available for funds based in Guernsey and the state of Delaware. In the second half of 2020, Broadridge has plans to go live executing bilateral repurchase agreements (repos) on the blockchain."*

## Bio

* From Bitcoin.com (11-2019):

"*For a number of years, the owner of Coinmarketcap.com, Brandon Chez, kept an extremely low profile until he was doxxed by the Wall Street Journal on January 23, 2018. Since the site was created Coinmarketcap.com swiftly became a top digital currency website but no one really knew who was behind the web portal. This was until Chez decided to delist the exchange rates of South Korean crypto trading platforms on January 7, 2018. Chez recently sat down for a fireside chat with the anonymous Sunny King during The Capital conference. Behind a curtain, the two silhouetted figures discussed Proof-of-Stake (PoS) consensus, bitcoin, and quantum computing."*

* From this post (11-10-2019) about Unstoppable Domains:

*"Blockchain domains do many things that traditional domains can’t do:*

* ***Payments** - Domains can be used as a payment gateway for cryptocurrency payments. These are cheap, almost instant, and can be done from anywhere in the world to anywhere in the world.*
* ***Uncensorable Websites** - Other companies and governments cannot control the content you show on your website.*
* ***Alternate Root** - Are not governed by and don’t require approval from ICANN.*
* ***No Custodian** - Blockchain domains are stored by the owner. No 3rd party can move or seize them.*
* ***No Renewals** - Pay once and it’s yours ... forever.*
* ***Transfers**- Blockchain domains do not require an escrow agent to securely exchange the domain or funds. This transfer can happen in less than 1 minute, from or to anywhere in the world."*

### Bugs/Exploits

* From Bitcoin.com (24-5-2021):

*"The project’s post mortem says: “BOG token was exploited by an unknown attacker who was able to drain $3m of the $6m liquidity using a complex Flash-Loan based attack. The attack was mitigated within 15 blocks of it starting to prevent a full drain of the liquidity pools.” Bogged Finance said that it planned to force migrate the contract by using the same exploit the attacker used to remove “illegitimately obtained tokens.” The project’s team members added: “Everyone will receive their LP tokens and $BOG on a new contract over the coming hours.” An update on May 24, says that the project’s migration is taking longer than expected. The funds are being held securely in this wallet, until redeployment is complete. We are excited to launch the new version of the BOG Contract with over 7.5 million tokens burned. We will announce a countdown for the relaunch before launch.”"*

* Chinese miner
* Owner of X Pool, runs Bitcoin Unlimited
* “According to a translated post on the Chinese forum 8btc, Guo says he plans to raise 12 million Ethereum Classic (ETC) in order to add 100 petahashes to his X Pool Bitcoin mining operation. It seems the plan is to start an ICO consisting of 21 million tokens that will be issued to the public. The additional hash power would give Guo’s X Pool roughly 3.3 percent of the overall Bitcoin network. At press time, X Pool encompasses roughly 0.9 percent of the network’s hashrate distribution.“

## Bio

* From the 2020 Messari end report:

"*Former Coinbase Chief Legal Officer Brian Brooks had a huge first year as the new acting Comptroller of the Currency at the OCC. (It also may be his last.) His interpretive letters over the summer could have positive ramifications for the industry for years to come if they manage to avoid new legislative reversals. Brooks clarified that regulated USD-pegged stablecoins could have their underlying deposits custodied by U.S. banks, and that banks could actually custody other forms of crypto themselves. Huge. And this fall, he went even further, proposing a rule that would forbid banks from discriminating against industries like adult entertainment and crypto. By asking banks to embrace “quantitative, risk-based standards” for supporting new clients he reset the default for gray market customers back to “not guilty.""*

*"Meme coin investment is a game for early birds and project creators, who are thriving in the era of “build and dump” that has arisen with BSC. Everyone buying into these coins is playing a game with the deck stacked against them.

* Aka Block Miner Reward or Stake Reward

* The amount that miners (in PoW) or stakers (in PoS) may claim as a reward for creating a block. Equal to the sum of the block subsidy (newly available satoshis) plus the transactions fees paid by transactions included in the block.
* The Block reward itself should not to be confused with Block subsidies or transaction fees.
* From this Bitcoin.com article (10-12-2019):

*"Miners have foregone their coinbase rewards at various block heights, with the most generous being 12.5 unclaimed BTC (the full block reward) at 501,726. Another miner tipped half of his reward, a sum totalling 6.25 BTC, in Satoshi’s direction at block height 526,591. The most intense patterns of such behavior occurred at heights 162,000, 180,000-230,000 and 530,000, with over 1,200 anomalies recorded."*

A ongoing debate that started in 2011 (by devs like Gavin Andresen, Jeff Garzik and Mike Hearn) about how to scale the Bitcoin network.

Some blockchains have fixed sizes, like the Bitcoin Core protocol, that limits blocks to 1 MB in size (9-2019). Each block contains at most some 4,000 transactions. Blocks are added to the blockchain on average every 10 minutes, therefore the transaction rate is limited to some 7 transactions per second (TPS).

The debate raged on for years on r/Bitcoin, but when it got censored heavily by the administrator Theymos, it split off to r/BTC.

Many projects forked off from the BTC chain (the most famous one is Bitcoin Cash, which now is the coin talked about most on r/BTC) and many alt-coins were created to fill the gap.

For a long read about the whole timeline, go here.

* From the Proof of Work newsletter #71 (20-6-2019)

*“A quick note about an attack on Bitcoin that’s been observed in the wild recently. Block witholding attacks have been discussed for a long time—the term refers to two different things, confusingly, but what we’re discussing here is when someone (often from a competing pool) joins a mining pool that pays out based on the average hashrate of the pool but withholds valid blocks, so the pool misses out on earnings and potentially becomes unprofitable.*

*Recently, F2pool mentioned on wechat that it was observable from hashrate distribution that this was actually happening a lot. Interestingly, there’s been a proposed fix for this from Luke Dashjr for a long time, but it would require a hard fork so it hasn’t been implemented yet. While it might not be a massively urgent problem, I would love to see increasing adoption of things at the pool level which make Bitcoin more decentralized (like Matt Corrallos BetterHash) “*

## Basics

* These are projects of governments who try to have their own digital currency. Most of these are heavily centralized and therefor do not bring anything innovative.
* From Cointelegraph (9-9-2020):

"*Dutch fintech-focused non-profit think tank dGen released a report devoted to geopolitical trends of CBDCs on Sept. 9. As such, dGen predicts that three to five nations globally will completely replace their national currency with a CBDC in ten years. While dGen does not make an exact guess at which countries will make the switch by 2030, the report outlines significant progress in CBDC by jurisdictions like the Bahamas and Sweden. The think tank noted that Sweden’s e-krona development comes in line with the country’s plan to go cash-free by 2025."*

## Pros and Cons

### Pros

* From Daily Gwei (2-11-2020):

"*If CBDC’s make their way on to public blockchains, it basically cements them as critical financial infrastructure for the world and the speed at which they’re integrated into global finance will accelerate tremendously. This would then give people a choice - use a CBDC or use a decentralized alternative like DAI - each comes with their own trade-offs."*

### Cons

* As this blog puts it (28-9-2020):

*"It’s going to be a disaster for your privacy. The governments will monitor, track, and record every single transaction you make. Through the CBDC, the government has the ability to approve or deny any of your transactions. CBDC can make negative interest rates enforcible to everyone. The government could just deduct interest from your digital wallet. And on top of all that, the government will never cease to increase the digital currency supply."*

## Notable Projects

* DC/EP is the Chinese version, and it seems to become the first CBDC to be launched in a big country.
* From Daily Gwei (2-11-2020):

"*The Federal Reserve in the U.S. has been talking about it, the European Central Bank has been talking about it, China is already conducting pilots and just yesterday the Reserve Bank of Australia (RBA) partnered with 2 of Australia’s largest banks to start research for an Ethereum-basedCBDC."*

## Basic

* A cryptocurrency exchange.
* Changelly was established on 2016 and within a year has managed to attract over 100,000 users
* Was set up by the same guys who established MinerGate – a mining pool that allows you to join other miners from around the world using your computer or mobile phone. Although MinerGate is a very popular service they don’t disclose who is running the show. As is also the case with Changelly.
* In many cases you’ll even get a better exchange rate on Changelly than on Shapeshift.
* Unlike Shapeshift, you’ll need an email address in order to use Changelly. Of course you can use a fake one if anonymity is important but that’s something to consider. Additional concerns were raised about the fact the Changelly may ask users to supply social media accounts to verify their identity in addition to the email account.

## Team, etc.

* Konstantin Gladych; co-founder and CEO
* Anna Rosebrook, head of business
* Affiliate partner with Cointelegraph, Coinmarketcap, Coingecko, bitcoinist, worldcoinindex and BitcoinDaily
