Understanding Marketing DAO in one article
This is "Understanding MarketingDAO in One Article" launched by MarketingDAO, which aims to briefly introduce and clarify what MarktingDAO is and what it does.
A Decentralized Autonomous Organization (DAO) is a new type of organization that attempts to coordinate group activities and utilize some form of "on-chain" governance. This is achieved by putting various standard organizational functions into smart contracts, such as the multiple signatures required for the distribution of funds, the process of creating, debating and approving or rejecting proposals, and a recorded voting system. On blockchain platforms such as Ethereum, votes on governance proposals are recorded on the blockchain as a historical dataset of governance proposals, their outcomes, and associated activities and funds used.
Proposal Process

There are three main types of proposals that can be submitted to a DAO, which are presented to members for voting. These proposals all go through the same process in the DAO, but serve different purposes.
– New member application proposal
– Donation Proposal

Three Financial Fronts in the Global Digital Currency War
The author is the co-founder, CEO, and chairman of Circle, a global financial services company, and the article focuses on his views on the financial landscape of digital currencies.
Leaders around the world are asking what role digital currencies will play in the next decade, and ultimately represent changes in the broader political and economic landscape that will reshape the future system of international money. These rapid changes have regulators around the world grappling with an economic system that is beginning to reflect an open, global and interconnected internet of information and communications.
Underpinning these shifts is the rapid development of public blockchain infrastructure, and there are now several competing approaches to building new financial systems on top of this infrastructure.
1. Open Finance
The first represents native ecosystem players, including Circle and Coinbase, who have built fiat-backed stablecoins, such as the U.S. dollar stablecoin (USDC), on top of public blockchains. These developments enable a wide range of developers and companies to build higher-level financial structures, such as decentralized lending and credit markets, payment services, and trade finance tools.
Subject to existing payment banking regulations in the US and EU, these private market-based approaches are rapidly evolving and help form the backbone of the open finance movement.
2. Government operation
The second approach is best represented by some countries' upcoming central bank digital currency, which aims to build a controlled, centralized, and permissioned infrastructure for a digital currency version of the renminbi.
While this approach may be appropriate for some countries' economic and political models, it does not work in the spirit of an open Internet and is unlikely to receive an enthusiastic response from the wider Internet development community.
3. Private Consortium
The third approach, based on the proposed Libra Association and Libra Reserve Currency, seeks to establish a global digital currency composed of "top consortiums".
The differences in the three approaches reflect the competing worldviews in which governments, especially those responsible for the world's major traded currencies, must now grapple with the innovation of public cryptocurrencies with global internet reach. The choices they face, and the decisions that policymakers ultimately make, will have a huge impact on our future global economic system. At the same time, while governments are researching and discussing these topics bit by bit, technological innovators all over the world are using encryption to rebuild the global economic system, which is a miracle of human ingenuity in our eyes.

The History of Cryptocurrency Exchanges: A Look at the Most Powerful Institutions in Our Industry
This is a history without end. Indeed, it is clear from the various trends shaping today's markets that, if anything, the variety of strategies employed by exchanges and the rate at which it iterates is increasing.
The story of an exchange is a powerful lens through which to understand the story of the entire cryptocurrency industry. They are both trend takers and trend makers in response to consumer needs, offering new products and services that will shape the expectations of this emerging market. They are a barometer of the regulatory environment and represent some of the most powerful institutions able to lobby governments for favorable regulatory approaches. The exchange battle will be some of the fiercest in the industry.
bitcoin exchange
Mt. Gox was not the first exchange, but probably the most iconic of the early Bitcoin exchanges. On January 5, 2010, Bitcoin Talk member dwdollar wrote: "Hello everyone, I am building an exchange. I have big plans, but I still have a lot of work to do. This will be a real market, and people will Able to buy and sell bitcoins with each other. Over the next few weeks I should be building a website with a basic skeleton, so please bear with me.”
During this time, there were major problems with payment processing and hacking, and only bitcoin was traded, with the entire bitcoin market cap at $1 million. Tradehill, one of the largest U.S. exchanges at the time, shut down in February, while exchanges such as Bitcoinica and Bitfloor were also hacked. This period was the outbreak of Cambrian communication. Most will be forgotten by history. Companies such as Bitstamp (founded in 2011) and Coinbase (2012) would follow.
Like all exchanges in its early days, Mt. Gox struggled with payment processing. In October 2010, it ditched PayPal and temporarily used Liberty Reserve. When McCaleb (who was also the founder of Ripple) started the site, he left shortly thereafter. Mentougou was sold to Frenchman Mark Karpeles in March 2011. For the next three years, it would go on to become the largest bitcoin exchange in the world. At its peak, it processed 70% to 80% of all Bitcoin transactions.
As we all know the story behind, Mentougou was stolen and went bankrupt. Mark Karpeles was arrested in Japan on charges of manipulating data. He was imprisoned for a year.
Altcoin Exchange
Ethereum has brought many advancements. Its core idea not only involves value exchange, but also involves the programmability of value exchange. At the same time, it also brings a lot of stories about the explosion of altcoins.
Binance is the classic altcoin exchange success story. On the one hand, Binance's phenomenal growth reflects the capabilities of the CZ team. On the other hand, it also reflects the sheer madness of the ICO era. For a brief period between mid-2017 and mid-2018, exchanges competed almost exclusively on the long-tail strategy based on their ICO assets.
And, Binance did introduce some innovations that will be replicated by many exchanges. Perhaps most notable is the introduction of its BNB
futures exchange
As interest in altcoins wanes as we enter an 18-year bear market, ICOs die and liquidity evaporates, which for many exchanges means the end of the easy times. And the head of the exchange that isn't worried at all is Arthur Hayes of BitMEX.
Coming out of the traditional financial world, Arthur Hayes has always been less interested in spot trading of long-tail assets and more interested in the kinds of futures and other derivative products that make mainstream markets more efficient. Among the other advantages of these products are , good traders can make money in both bull and bear markets.
how are you today? Since April 2019, Bitcoin has climbed back up. If it were not for the white-hot ICO days, the market would be significantly better than the second half of 2018. We believe there are at least four major trends shaping exchange business models today:
- Derivatives
– Platform currency, IEO, exchange public chain
– Compliance gap

The death of value investing
This is an article about the contradiction between traditional stock market value investment strategies and investing in technology growth stocks. The concept of "intangible assets" about "overvalued" growth stocks mentioned in it is not bad.
Value investing (traditionally defined as companies trading at low prices relative to characteristics such as earnings and book value) has underperformed since 2007 into an explosive bull market in growth stocks, And technology companies with rising valuations are still growing rapidly.
Why does this happen?
Why does this happen?
“For real rotation to happen, you don’t have to look at value, you look at growth,” said Alex Roepers, founder and chief investment officer at Atlantic Investment Management.
Not everyone agrees that the tech market is overvalued. The way companies invest has changed dramatically over the past few decades. "Historically, when companies made investments, most of their assets were tangible assets. Today, companies invest in more intangible assets, which are paid out rather than capitalized, which means their book Value will not appear.
