I think an objective summary is going to be hard to come by. The only thing I can add is that this view is common throughout history - think Shylock in the Merchant of Venice. The stereotype of Jewish people as being involved in the process

One of the last times this popped up, I printed it out and annotated it. I wanted to see if it was possible to take something so different to my working world (risk management) and apply it. Annotating it for my situation made it clear that

This article basically just outlines regulatory capital and (I think) avoids economic capital. In very very shorthand - regulatory capital is the capital needed to comply with local regulations (with guidance from BASEL and BIS), while econ

I don't know if there is an engineer who is able to invent a new form of energy and a complete weapon while captured by the taliban, so no I do not think there is an exact analogue. However, the film makers have claimed to use Elon Mus

Oh that first answer is very interesting - my thoughts at the moment is when/if is this technology going to be included by governments alongside their currencies. Eg each currency being "digitised" alongside standard paper cu

Hi, thank you very much for your answers. Part of my questions were piqued by this blog post ( https://blog.ethereum.org/2015/08/07/on-public-and-private-b... ) which defined a private blockchain as a "blo

Sorry, I agree with the OP. I interpreted the "Success Stories" page, especially when it is sub-titled "Our prior work speaks for itself" as referring to the work performed through Gigstar. There is a difference between

Hard to tell with the noise out the Eurozone. Together, the next week will be a bit of a bumpy ride. Definitely agree with your first statement; maybe you should look towards Australia as an example country that over the past 5 years has be
