PIVX CELEBRATES 5yrs OF PoS TECH

5yrs ago PIVX moved from PoW to PoS consensus mechanism. Why?

You'll find the answers in the above excerpts taken from the whitepaper but to give you a hint it has to do with the environment, fairness and tech barrier.

DYK: YOU CAN SHIELD YOUR EXCHANGE WITH FLYPME

Did You Know? Shielded transactions are protected (aka untraceable) PIVX transactions. At today's date, Flyp.me is the only exchange, that we know of, which allows you to send and receive Shielded PIVs.

Flyp.me is an accountless exchange where you can swap your BTC, USDT, ETH, ADA, LTC, DOGE and other pairs with PIVX.
While the exchange amount is limited to the equivalent of few thousand $ / Euro etc., the amount is locked and the exchange is quite fast and usually completes with no issues.

WANT MORE MARKETING?

On almost every project you will find a lot of people crying for more marketing (aka free price pumps).

PIVX is a DAO and for it to succeed PIVians need to be involved, for as little as they can afford.
Some put a lot of work on PIVX, some like us, unpaid.

Here's some people willing to support PIVX marketing for you....UNPAID! However, if you (Masternode owner) don't vote for their proposal their offer will be rejected by the chain.

#PIVXInfo
MN, DON'T FORGET TO VOTE

To all masternode(s) owners, remember that you can check for the current proposals here while pre-proposals are discussed here.

Go on and express your preference.

WHAT PROBLEM IS PIVX TRYING TO SOLVE?
By Ryan Erickson

"...in the end, the problem the PIVX is solving is one which 99%* of the cryptocurrency community is unable to do itself. Keep community members, their transactions, and low transfer fees at the top of the priority list. These alone are a major hurdle for adoption. And PIVX has checked all the boxes (99.999% at least)."

PIVX HAS ALREADY EMBRACED THE ZK-SNARKS REVOLUTION

Vitalik Buterin (Ethereum founder) recently mentioned that he expects the Zero Knowledge Proof protocol to become an important revolution in the next 10-20yrs.

PIVX devs have already taken a big step in that direction by implementing it with Shield in a PoS (= Proof of Stake) blockchain.

What is "Zero Knowledge Proof!", though? Many may wonder. So, we found a very simple explanation here. While to remind all how PIVX has implemented it, here's another article which came out last Feb, just after the Core client v5 and annexed Shield protocol release.

CUTTING DOWN ON RISKs WHEN DEALING WITH FINANCIAL PRODUCTS

āˆ™
Diversify your investments. Not just within the cryptocurrencies realm but in real life too.
āˆ™ Don't just follow word of mouth. NEVER FORGO TO DYOR (= Do Your Own Research).
āˆ™ Custodial services (=services that hold the key(s) to your money) are ALWAYS a risk. Too big to fail is NOT a safety net. Remember MtGox. Of course, less established or new service providers pose the biggest risks.

DISCLAIMER:
We
@pivxnews and @pivxchat DO NOT and cannot guarantee that any of the product, company/service provider advertised or mentioned is genuine, trustworthy or backed by robust management. We do NOT have the proper resources and adeguate knowledge to carry out a proper investigation and/or audit. We do rely on the community to help us spot fraudulent behavior.

We strongly advise to avoid custodial services whenever possible.
