Speech by the founding chairman of Bitcoin Association in February 2021
Hello, friends in the Bitcoin SV global community!
People say that Bitcoin never sleeps. Starting in 2021, they may start adding the word "Association" after "Bitcoin"!
The association’s work in the second month of this year has come to an end, and a series of actions and their results are about to be implemented.
Education is an important part of the work of our Bitcoin Association, and it may never have received so much exposure as it has in the past few months. At the end of 2020, we launched the dedicated online education platform Bitcoin SV Academy and opened the first course "Introduction to Bitcoin Principles". This will be the first of many courses on the platform, and courses related to the introductory modules of "Bitcoin Development" and "Bitcoin Infrastructure" will be launched at the end of the first quarter.
In addition, the world's first Bitcoin SV MOOC, which we created in cooperation with the Saxon University of Applied Sciences in the Netherlands, was launched earlier this month. The MOOC is free and you can study at your own pace, but the course only lasts until September 1. So I not only encourage you to participate in person, but also hope that you will advertise this news in your own circle so that more people can understand the true power of Bitcoin!
Here we would like to congratulate the team that made these two projects successfully launched. This is a huge achievement for all participants, but this is only the tip of the iceberg in the content of the Bitcoin Association in this field in 2021.
We know that everyone is eager to see Bitcoin SV make more progress in business, but if you look closely, you will find that companies in the Bitcoin SV ecosystem have made considerable progress in 2021. The following are the things that make me feel gratifying, including the integration of BitBoss and Dot Wallet announced earlier this month. FYX, Vaionex, VXPass, sCrypt and Tokenized projects have all made significant progress, as well as pictures of the collaboration between Faiā, nChain and Elas Digital. The Wallu project is also progressing steadily!
Faster development in February-Simple Fabriik Token Protocol has been launched, and then someone created several experimental tokens on the Fabriik platform; Twetch launched a hat collection NFT (non-homogeneous token) The new trading market has also been launched; Unbounded Enterprise has launched the BSV2048.com game, which can demonstrate to developers how to build Bitcoin SV-based applications more easily (we will review the February news next month ).
Finally, after witnessing the development of the Bitcoin Association and the Bitcoin SV community, in order to support this development, we are also expanding our team! In early February, the Bitcoin Association team ushered in Zhou Quan, Connor Murray and Liz Louw. They are the first batch in 2021, and I expect more this year!
This year is very important for Bitcoin SV, but the success of Bitcoin SV is not in the hands of an individual, company or group. The success of Bitcoin SV requires the efforts of each of us, and requires more new people to participate in the construction. Therefore, please stay safe, pay attention to safety, work hard, and stick to Satoshi Nakamoto's vision as always.
Jimmy Nguyen
Founding Chairman of Bitcoin Association
Welcome three newcomers to the Bitcoin Association team: Zhou Quan, Connor Murray and Liz Louw
The new year is very important to the Bitcoin Association, and the joining of three new members kicked off this. We hereby introduce to you:
Zhou Quan is the first long-term technology promotion expert of the Bitcoin Association in China. The Bitcoin SV community in China is developing rapidly, and we are very happy to continue to provide strong support to developers in China. Zhou Quan previously worked at IBM. He will use his experience to contact business, technical and government leaders across China and explain to them how Bitcoin SV can contribute to future development.
Connor Murray joined the Bitcoin SV Academy team as a content expert. Murray is the co-founder and CEO of britevue, a consumer review platform based on Bitcoin SV. This brings him exciting and rich development experience based on Bitcoin SV, which can greatly help Bitcoin SV Academy. Murray accepted an interview with the Bitcoin Association earlier this month to discuss his motivations for joining the company and how he will weigh the many jobs at hand.
Lizette Louw is already a major member of the Bitcoin SV community, and we are very happy to invite her to join the Bitcoin Association as a content marketing expert. Louw has worked for Bitcoin SV-based fintech startup Bitstocks for the past three years. She will now be based in South Africa and is committed to establishing and implementing a series of brand new marketing plans for the Bitcoin Association, focusing on promoting the benefits of building on the Bitcoin SV blockchain to companies.
For us, the best way to invest in the Bitcoin SV ecosystem is to learn from the knowledge and experience of those who have devoted themselves to the community. And these moves are just the beginning of this prolific year for the Bitcoin Association.
The MOOC at the University of Saxon is online
This month, the Bitcoin Association and the Saxon University of Applied Sciences in the Netherlands launched the first MOOC focusing on Bitcoin SV. "What is Bitcoin? Why is it so important?" is the first of the four courses we plan to launch in cooperation with the University of Saxon.
The Bitcoin Association regards education as its top priority, so cooperation with the University of Saxon is priceless. We encourage anyone interested in building on Bitcoin to join the project. The course is free, but there is a time limit, because the first course is only open until September 1, so don’t hesitate to sign up!
Bitcoin SV Academy goes live
In December of last year, we launched the Bitcoin SV Academy to enable as many people as possible to have access to Bitcoin SV-related educational resources. The college provides college-style courses related to the foundation of Bitcoin SV, divided into three different sections-Bitcoin Principles, Bitcoin Infrastructure, and Bitcoin Development.
Steve Shadders, the technical director of the Bitcoin SV infrastructure team, recently explained to us the importance of projects such as the Bitcoin SV Academy. He said: “The most important infrastructure of Bitcoin is the accessibility and availability of education. It not only expands Bitcoin. Work and build a talent pool, and help improve people’s awareness: Bitcoin as a complete technological system, what potential it has."
Nakamoto Scholarship Awarded in the second year
Robin Kohze, a PhD student at the University of Cambridge, won the Satoshi Nakamoto Scholarship for the second year in a row.
The scholarship aims to recognize outstanding students and support them in the development of blockchain applications using the unique features of Bitcoin SV. The Bitcoin SV ecosystem of Cambridge University is booming, and Kohze is the central figure. He founded the Cambridge University Metanet Society, which is a student-led organization that conducts seminars and discussions to stimulate and cultivate people's interest in Bitcoin SV development. He is also the founder of Vaionex, a Bitcoin SV company.
The first-year scholarship awarded to Kohze is to support the development of his HIVE platform and protocol, which utilizes the data storage and payment functions of Bitcoin SV, and rethinks the content of the user-centric website, including its information. Organization and how to build incentive models. Kohze told the Bitcoin Association that he intends to use the bonus from the second year to further develop the HIVE protocol and standardize the incentive mechanism. The basis is that he will consider submitting an academic research paper for publication.
BSV in the UAE-paragraph 2
The Bitcoin Association's two Dubai trips to end 2020 have been settled. At the 13th Ritossa Family Office Investment Summit held in December last year (also our second visit at the end of 2020), we had a wonderful and in-depth discussion on the topic of blockchain in the panel discussion.
I am proud of the representatives of our community who provided support for Bitcoin SV and emphasized the broad vision that this technology can be used to build a better future society-through improved healthcare, government governance, smart cities, Even simple payment processing and so on. This is an unforgettable opportunity for us to tell the story of Bitcoin, advocate for investment cases rooted in utility, and showcase the meaningful changes brought about by Bitcoin SV’s unique position. All of this is to attract wealthy and influential investors, thereby making the world more meaningful.
Tuvalu
Tuvalu announced in late December 2020 (just before Christmas) that the country plans to use Bitcoin SV to become the world’s first paperless society. This is one of the most exciting applications on Bitcoin SV to date. . The country will cooperate with three companies in the Bitcoin SV industry: nChain, Faiā and Elas Digital.
As a small country with 11,000 highly educated citizens but no electronic banking system, Tuvalu has become a perfect test case for large-scale promotion of Bitcoin SV-based infrastructure. But the project is not just for payment: the government will focus on using the Bitcoin SV blockchain to unlock the potential of Tuvalu and respond to challenges in various fields.
As George Siosi Samuels, CEO of Bitcoin SV consulting firm Faiā (he is also a Tuvaluan), said: "Data is the new oil, and Tuvalu is taking the right step in this new field, just like ours The ancestors found their way in the ocean."
FYX is online
In early February, infrastructure provider FYX excitedly released a brand new e-sports platform. The predecessor of FYX is Kronoverse, which is a further development of the previous platform. The platform provides support for the battle game CryptoFights on Bitcoin SV and enables users to obtain real-world bonuses from online battles.
FYX will use its extensive integration capabilities to provide hosting services for various games. These features should allow game developers of different sizes to run their games on the platform. With the massive transaction capacity of Bitcoin SV, FYX has only taken the first step-letting the blockchain be applied to the entire game ecosystem and serve different purposes. Some purposes are very simple, such as: to achieve identity verification; some purposes are breakthroughs, such as: allowing developers to provide economic incentives to players in a way they think is appropriate.
We believe that infrastructure platforms such as FYX are essential to the development of the Bitcoin SV ecosystem, so we invite you to go to https://www.fyxgaming.com/ to experience it yourself!
BitBoss and Dot Wallet
Game technology developer BitBoss has announced the integration of its blockchain-based online gaming platform "Dragon BSV" with a Bitcoin SV-based RBI wallet. This is a major development for Bitcoin SV and the online gaming community, as it allows players to place bets and receive payments directly from the dot wallet.
BitBoss' online games have been built on the Bitcoin SV blockchain, but recently this integration method can be regarded as an exciting breakthrough in the iGaming field because it further removes the intermediate link between the player and the game on BitBoss . It fully proves that Bitcoin SV can provide unlimited possibilities for creating full-service integration. This can not only promote the development of the game itself, but also meet the requirements of other types of infrastructure that support the game. Now, players can fully enjoy the value increase generated in this process.
Currently, more than 400 projects worldwide are built on the Bitcoin SV blockchain. With rock-solid agreements and declining transaction fees, the Bitcoin SV ecosystem has developed rapidly, and we look forward to more unprecedented commercial applications in the future.
