    LOOM NETWORK Industry report 2019 Loom Network - One Basechain to rule them all Table of contents Introduction 3 Loom Network’s goal 3 Loom Network’s performance 4 Token volumes 4 Daily active wallets 5 Number of dapps 6 Token price 7 Future roadmap 7 Conclusions 8 Key Takeaways • By positioning itself as truly cross-platform and the “universal Layer 2” protocol, Loom has gained increased adoption among the developer community • This has resulted in growing protocol metrics over the past months (DAUs, Token Volumes and number of deployed dapps) • There is a long list of Loom dapps currently in development (mostly games) • Great potential remains, but too early for reaching a final verdict over the protocols success 2 Introduction Scalability is one of the hottest topics in the world of blockchain and dapps. This is especially the case for Ethereum. It remains the most popular blockchain for deploying dapps, but from CryptoKitties in late 2017 to more recent issues with gambling dapps such as FairWin, it’s suffered from serious network congestion. Of course, there are different ways to solve such issues. The move away from a Proof of Work consensus as part of Ethereum 2.0 is one, but in the meantime, we’ve seen an explosion in the number of Layer 2 solutions such as Loom Network’s Basechain (previously called PlasmaChain). These allow developers to overcome scalability issues on a base layer by offloading operations to their own connected chains. In the case of Loom Network, its Basechain is a network of delegated Proof of Stake sidechains secured by more than 21 delegators.

  • NFT Yearly Report 2020, Fresh from the Oven!
    NON-FUNGIBLE TOKENS YEARLY REPORT 2020 FREE EDITION MARKET RESEARCH. TRENDS DECRYPTION. PROJECT REVIEW. EVERYTHING YOU NEED TO KNOW ABOUT THE NFT ECOSYSTEM FOREWORDS The NFT Yearly Report 2020, fresh from the oven! The purpose of this report is to provide an overarching and detailed view of the Non-Fungible Token ecosystem during 2020. The exponential growth within the sector has been particularly impressive, especially given that the Crypto bear market was in full force during most of the early stages of development. There is little doubt that the loyal and tight knit groups who initially evolved around various NFT blockchain projects have since seen the contents of their wallets dramatically increase in value as the ecosystem evolved and NFT projects began to attract more and more outside and mainstream interest. This report is not meant for Non-Fungible experts but to help everyone in or outside the Non- Fungible Tokens ecosystem to better understand what is going on. What is the potential? Why should you care about NFT? 2020 has been an unprecedented year for most of the world's population, with many challenges to face, from a global pandemic and lockdown to political upheavals, riots and not to mention catastrophic natural disasters… we’ve had it all! In stark contrast and perhaps partially due to such turbulent global events, interest and investment in virtual economies and digital assets has boomed, more than ever seen before. Within the Non-Fungible Token ecosystem individual sectors have seen success, Art, Gaming and Digital Assets have all gained remarkable traction during 2020 with this once niche and experimental industry maturing into a force to be reckoned with.

  • Coin-Operated Capitalism
    COLUMBIA LAW REVIEW VOL. 119 APRIL 2019 NO. 3 ARTICLES COIN-OPERATED CAPITALISM Shaanan Cohney,* David Hoffman,** Jeremy Sklaroff *** & David Wishnick **** This Article presents the legal literature’s first detailed analysis of the inner workings of Initial Coin Offerings (ICOs). We characterize the ICO as an example of financial innovation, placing it in kinship with venture capital contracting, asset securitization, and (obviously) the IPO. We also take the form seriously as an example of technological innovation, in which promoters are beginning to effectuate their promises to investors through computer code, rather than traditional contract. To understand the dynamics of this shift, we first collect contracts, “whitepapers,” and other disclosures for the fifty top-grossing ICOs of 2017. We then analyze how the software code controlling the projects’ ICOs reflected (or failed to reflect) their disclosures. Our inquiry reveals that many ICOs failed even to promise that they would protect investors against insider self-dealing. Fewer still manifested such promises in code. Surprisingly, in a community known for espousing a technolibertarian belief in the power of “trustless trust” built with carefully designed code, a significant fraction of issuers retained centralized control through * P.h.D.
