1/ @MIT discussing the need for blockchain gateways to achieve interoperability across different blockchain networks, and to support the cross-blockchain mobility of virtual assets

@quant_network are collaborating with MIT in the creation of ODAP

2/ "In order for blockchain-based services to scale globally, blockchain networks must be able to interoperate with one another following a standardized protocol and interfaces (APIs)"

Gilbert founded ISO TC307 which 60 countries are working towards standardizing the interfaces
3/ "We believe that a blockchain gateway is needed for blockchain networks to interoperate in a manner similar
to border gateway routers in IP networks. Just as border gateway routers use the BGPv4 protocol to interact with one another in a peered fashion we believe that a...
4/ blockchain gateway protocol will be needed to permit the movement of virtual assets and related information across blockchain networks in a secure and privacy-preserving manner"

You can read more about the gateway protocol ODAP in this 21 tweet thread

"We motivate the need for blockchain gateways and blockchain gateway protocols in the following summary:

✅Enables blockchain interoperability:
Blockchain gateways provide an interface for the interoperability between blockchain/DLT systems that operate distinct consensus...
6/ protocols and ledger data structures. A gateway fronts its blockchain/DLT system, and exposes a standard interface (APIs) to an external peer (opposite) gateway"

An Overledger Gateway can connect to many blockchains and APIs and enables access to them all through a single API
7/ Other Overledger Gateways will then connect to each other to connect blockchains / resources that are not directly connected to the gateway. They will do this through Open Digital Asset Protocol (ODAP)
8/
"✅Ensures blockchain network autonomy:
The use of gateways as the interface point between
blockchain networks permits each blockchain network to evolve, where new innovations and new technologies can be deployed interiorly within a blockchain network without..
9/ affecting other external blockchains. In this way, a blockchain network truly behaves as an autonomous
network in the same vein as the original vision of the IP Internet."

Quant's solution was designed with this in mind, taking inspiration from TCP/IP

10/"✅Enables virtual asset mobility:
There is a growing need for virtual assets to be moveable
across blockchain networks, a need that will only increase with growth of CBDC tokenized currencies. The use of blockchains permit innovative asset movement protocols to be developed..
11/ that can be implemented by gateways across standardized APIs. Such asset movement protocols can be designed for specific asset types and be operated by gateways according to the different regulatory jurisdictions in the world."
12/ Quant's Multi-Ledger Tokens enable assets to be moved across any blockchain whilst changes of ownership are recorded and a clear, auditable record is maintained. Opening up the walled gardens of many eMoney solutions
13/
"✅Enforcement point for AML/KYC regulations and international taxation:
Gateways as the “landing points” for virtual asset entering into (departing from) blockchain networks becomes
an enforcement point for AML/KYC regulations...
14/ Furthermore, for cross-border movement of assets the gateways also become “checkpoints” where international taxation concerns can be addressed and implemented."

Quant are working with regulators to enable a compliant solution to be used by Central Banks, Banks, Governments
15/
"✅Enables integration with legacy systems:
The use of a standardized gateway-protocol between
peers of gateways permits one of the blockchains to be substituted for a legacy system (e.g. financial database systems) without impact to the remote peer...
16/ That is, a standardized gateway protocol can be use to hide the fact behind the gateway lies a legacy system. The
gateway hides the complexity of the interiors of the system that it fronts – be it legacy data systems or new blockchain/DLT systems."
17/ Quant's solution seamlessly integrates with existing legacy systems as well as the ability to connect to any blockchain (current and future), providing a scalable, compliant, secure solution to form the foundations of the next Internet. $QNT

Quick Thread on #Altcoins/ #Altseason

Step 1: $BTC has a huge correction. Every range starts with either a pump (or dump) and then follows with a dump (or pump). In this case, #Bitcoin pumped and is now pulling back. This is


Step 2: $BTC ranges big once it finds a bottom. This will allow it to reaccumulate for a big summer run in 2021. This is HEALTHY IMO.


Step 3: Once $BTC finds a bottom and starts to grind up again, I expect $ALTS to do very very well in both alt/usd and alt/btc pairs. ALTSZN is almost always characterized by strong alt/btc pairs moving- I've already accumulated most and have done my final buying today and more.

$BTC.D typically has a very nice time during this time of the year. I was off on December prediction bc I thought $BTC was going to pull back by then but oh well! #Altcoins will start their pumping time VERY soon now.

IMPORTANCE, ADVANTAGES AND CHARACTERISTICS OF BHAGWAT PURAN

It was Ved Vyas who edited the eighteen thousand shlokas of Bhagwat. This book destroys all your sins. It has twelve parts which are like kalpvraksh.

In the first skandh, the importance of Vedvyas


and characters of Pandavas are described by the dialogues between Suutji and Shaunakji. Then there is the story of Parikshit.
Next there is a Brahm Narad dialogue describing the avtaar of Bhagwan. Then the characteristics of Puraan are mentioned.

It also discusses the evolution of universe.(
https://t.co/2aK1AZSC79 )

Next is the portrayal of Vidur and his dialogue with Maitreyji. Then there is a mention of Creation of universe by Brahma and the preachings of Sankhya by Kapil Muni.


In the next section we find the portrayal of Sati, Dhruv, Pruthu, and the story of ancient King, Bahirshi.
In the next section we find the character of King Priyavrat and his sons, different types of loks in this universe, and description of Narak. ( https://t.co/gmDTkLktKS )


In the sixth part we find the portrayal of Ajaamil ( https://t.co/LdVSSNspa2 ), Daksh and the birth of Marudgans( https://t.co/tecNidVckj )

THREAD: 12 Things Everyone Should Know About IQ

1. IQ is one of the most heritable psychological traits – that is, individual differences in IQ are strongly associated with individual differences in genes (at least in fairly typical modern environments). https://t.co/3XxzW9bxLE


2. The heritability of IQ *increases* from childhood to adulthood. Meanwhile, the effect of the shared environment largely fades away. In other words, when it comes to IQ, nature becomes more important as we get older, nurture less.
https://t.co/UqtS1lpw3n


3. IQ scores have been increasing for the last century or so, a phenomenon known as the Flynn effect. https://t.co/sCZvCst3hw (N ≈ 4 million)

(Note that the Flynn effect shows that IQ isn't 100% genetic; it doesn't show that it's 100% environmental.)


4. IQ predicts many important real world outcomes.

For example, though far from perfect, IQ is the single-best predictor of job performance we have – much better than Emotional Intelligence, the Big Five, Grit, etc. https://t.co/rKUgKDAAVx https://t.co/DWbVI8QSU3


5. Higher IQ is associated with a lower risk of death from most causes, including cardiovascular disease, respiratory disease, most forms of cancer, homicide, suicide, and accident. https://t.co/PJjGNyeQRA (N = 728,160)
