Designing the pEOS wallet.
In their latest article, the pEOS team showcased their work thus far regarding the pEOS wallet. To design their wallet mechanism, they aimed for the best possible user experience: "Technology should be transparent". Therefore, they addressed 7 main challenges:
1. pEOS works over the eos network;
2. Users should understand that pEOS addresses are detached from eosio accounts
3. The wallet should enable the user to send private transactions both to pEOS addresses and eosio accounts
4. pEOS requires eos RAM to be used as transaction fees
5. pEOS is a privacy focused project
6. Keep all of the above as simple and as user friendly as possible
7. User must have a clear idea of his balance and his transaction history.

The WordProof Timestamp plugin is now available in the WordPress plugin repo.
The WordProof team recently added their Timestamp plugin to the Wordpress plugin repo. WordProof Timestamp is a new free plugin that bridges the WordPress and blockchain communities in an approachable, user-friendly way.
It gives users the ability to timestamp their posts and pages to demonstrate transparency and claim ownership of content. WordProof works with any EOSIO blockchain to create the timestamp and provides a custom certificate link with a frontend pop-up to display it.
“In five years from now, if you don’t timestamp your articles on the blockchain, you’re going to be considered a fraud.” – Brendan Blumer

Brendan's recent hottest messages - 4th June, 2019.
"Everyone should know that we hate KYC as much as all of you; as a company we share your values. That said KYC is the only way to offer real value to users opposed to shareholders and prevent gaming the distribution of that value"
"Trust me, when it all sinks in on a macro level, people will realise how big of a deal this is for 1) social media and 2) the EOS blockchain. In my opinion there isn’t anything we could have done that would have added more value"
"We believe the positives drastically outweigh the negatives and the masses will quickly realise it from both a value and user experience perspective"
"Voice will have ability to post anonymously, but in order for us to legally give tokens (value) to people, KYC is a legal requirement beyond our control. Those that would prefer to avoid the process and allow companies to retain all value from selling their data, can chose to stay on existing platforms"

"KYC is a legal term which is independent of identity. KYC implies compliance with a number of laws"
Will Voice allows devs to implement their custom tokens?
> "It’s on eos public network so lots of opportunities for dapps to integrate"
Is the community free to create his own UI from the same voice DB?
> "Effectively. Voice.com will not host illegal content, but other interfaces can take their own risk
Will b1 have any power to censor specific (illegal) content, like child porn?
> "Voice.com will not host illegal content, but other interfaces can take their own risk"

Dan's recent hottest messages - 5th June, 2019.
"We have some major enhancements proposals coming. Very excited about how we will empower new use cases on eosio."
"Many other dapps will build on voice accounts which means users will signup for those apps as well. Voice is a public square, there are thousands of apps that can build on identity"
"B1 can easily delete data on its servers, only hashes and prunable data on chain so producers can delete it if they want. Trust me, we’ve thought through gdpr from both our side and bp."
"Also we have many unannounced plans for voice"

Azarus raises $1.8 million for blockchain-based competitive gaming challenge platform.
Galaxy Digital Fund recently led a $1.8M seed funding round for the Azarus "Smart Challenges" platform. Through Azarus gamers and streamers can set their own rules, stakes, and rewards, against their friends or audience, on the games they already play and get rewarded with AZA Credits. The platform was already launched in late 2018 as a Twitch extension and every challenge is operated in a transparent way and notarized on the EOS blockchain.
“Gaming is one of the verticals that we have identified as proof points for the efficacy of blockchain technology. As one of our initial investments, we were drawn to Azarus’ platform approach and the potential for Azarus to leverage blockchain to disrupt the entire gaming ecosystem.”

Brendan and the Old Man - 4th June, 2019.
"We’re aiming for the most widely and equitably distributed token in history to spread the vested interest far and wide / we believe maximising the power of tokenisation is key to disrupting existing network effects."
"You’ve been very critical on our process with EOS as well but it continues to outperform virtually every public blockchain out there in both adoption and other performance metrics"
"Social media is controlled by influencers and they will make serious sums by joining voice... we have an ad budget in the hundreds of millions, and structured plan to onbord influencers.. and that’s outside of the Value emitted in tokens..."
"The community always expects us to be a larger company than we are... We work harder to grow and deliver than any company I’ve ever seen, but expectations on is for a 2 year old company often seem impossible ... despite that Dan and I are committed to continuing to jump into the fray and give all of you access to us so you know as much as possible about what, why, and when"
