IJCH - Inside JaiChai's Head (Meaning: My Warped, Personal Opinions and Musings)

From the Author:

Salutations.

I am JaiChai.

And if I haven't had the pleasure of meeting you before, I'm delighted to make your acquaintance now.

Source

I invite you to interact with everyone, learn, and have as much fun as possible!

For my returning online friends, "It's always great to see you again!"

What a coincidence...

Five days ago I wrote about how I've always liked Stellar's utility and longterm value:

Then this happens...

"Visa-Backed Blockchain Firm Embraces Stellar Cryptocurrency Via Merger"

Source

The for-profit subsidiary of the Stellar Development Foundation has purchased Chain, a venture backed blockchain startup with some of the biggest names in enterprise adoption among its customers.

Source

The merger points to the larger concern in the blockchain space of how permissioned networks can interoperate with other platforms.

While the U.S. Depository Trust and Clearing Corporation built its soon-to-be launched blockchain platform to interoperate with the public ethereum blockchain, the Chain merger shows another possible path forward.

Ramifications

Source

You might be saying, "So what? Who cares?"

I'll tell you.

Before the merger, Chain, Inc.'s current customers included Wall Street big hitters like VISA, NASDAQ and Citigroup.

(BTW, Citigroup is about to launch a crypto CDR (crypto depository receipt, similiar to an ADR - American Depository receipt for foreign issues).

And Stellar's partners included IBM and Stripe.

Now, ALL of those customers and partners are with the new Stellar/Chain, Inc. entity called "Interstellar".

See:

"Cryptocurrency Startups Combine as Wall Street Blockchain Effort Falters"

Source

Chain Inc., a startup working with Nasdaq Inc. and others to build a blockchain-based trading platform, is merging with another cryptocurrency startup, a sign that efforts to plug the technology behind bitcoin into the traditional markets are proving harder than expected.

Source

Does this mean that XLM has more potential as a cryptocurrency?

You do the math...

About the Author

Believing that school was too boring, he dropped out of High School early; only to earn an AA, BS and MBA in less than 4 years much later in life – while working full-time as a Navy/Marine Corps Medic.

In spite of a fear of heights and deep water, he performed high altitude, free-fall parachute jumps and hazardous diving ops in deep, open ocean water.

After 24 years of active duty, he retired in Asia.

Since then, he's been a full-time, single papa and actively pursuing his varied passions (Writing, Disruptive Technology, Computer Science and Cryptocurrency - plus more hobbies too boring or bizarre for most folk).

He lives on an island paradise with his teenage daughter, longtime girlfriend and three dogs.

Cool story. But still not a match for Hashgraph. In fact nothing is a match for Hashgrph. Also keep an eye on Dash and MCO, they have some really great stuff planned.

Also, don't miss your free HUNT Tokens: https://steemit.com/airdrop/@vimukthi/the-steem-hunt-airdrop-for-sp-holders-is-about-to-end-in-less-than-24-hours

@vimukthi Hashgraph is not yet out in the open where it will be tested and open to attack soon. We will see how that goes. There is plenty of room for Stellar to drive ahead and occupy its own space, speciality and partners.

XLM and XRP are good. But they are not very scalable. https://credits.com would actually do better than both XLM and XRP combined. Check it out.

I have high hopes for Stellar, it is one of my longer term bets!
