Would be good to put it to the test... use popcorntime.io or torrents on an ISP that doesn't allow it using this browser and see if they can track you and shut your account down.

My ISP doesn't allow Torrents and ive been doing it past 5 years no worries at all.

Very interesting  development out of china...downloaded the wallet and never seen anything like it..check it out

The user is able to freely connect to the decentralized P2P VPN network freely through ways they choose. This allows for increased security. The static verification of identity can lead to security breaches, potentially causing the leak of sensitive information. Bitnet verifies the “identity” of its users dynamically through the blockchain, where the ever-changing credentials to log in are securely stored.

All of this information is also completely anonymous. Connection to a VPN node through Bitnet is virtually invisible because this network is decentralized. Once connected, you can see what they see, while nobody else can see you. This VPN is, in ways, the “first civilian TOR.”

Bitnet also enacts a unique domain system with virtually infinite possible combinations. The domain names are as follows: http://(wallet-address) without the parentheses.

Any business or enterprise may set up their own website on Bitnet with the only cost being server utilities. There is no required domain registration fee. Since this is P2P, a business may trade even outside of its regional limitations. This is especially useful in a communist state like China, where censorship is such a problem. You can see what you deem fit, not what the government deems fit for you. The list of applicable uses for Bitnet goes on from P2P instant messaging and phone systems; there’s a plethora of useful feature to choose from.

 

Bitnet As a Whole
Tor and I2P are two similar projects to Bitnet. However, Tor and I2P receive heavy government and private funding because of their applicable uses in privacy and security. The developers behind Bitnet hope to create the third multi-node, decentralized client of importance.

In this sense, Bitnet really is a civilian implementation of Tor. Unlike the previous two, Bitnet is Chinese. Tor and I2P are American in origin and not necessarily tailored to the needs of people who need decentralized anonymity in the world. Bitnet comes in as a personalized system that can be suited to the needs of the individual user.

 

VPNCoin
VPNCoin is the driving force behind Bitnet. It’s the epicenter of the utilities included in the client because the client is first and foremost an alt-coin wallet. It goes deeper than that, though. A decentralized trade market is embedded in Bitnet. Its intrinsic currency is obviously going to be VPNCoin.

Whats all this optimism based on? 2.0 will only create a sustainable higher price if the product is usable and attracts a decent userbase that is actually paying fees for services. Weve been failing at that for 12 months now, and I dont see why 2.0 should suddenly change that.

ThI codebase is pretty well developed.. There is more value there then our current marketcap suggests.

Interesting...yes alot is riding on 2.0. it will define the future of Bitshares that is for sure.

Do you guys see us breaking the previous ATH in August of 2014 (.3 cents USD) this year?

Is anyone taking this coin seriously? Do you ever see it coming near ripple or nxt market cap?

Hello guys i have my 7 stupid questions for you.


1. If i back up my wallet file on a USB stick and then plug it into a different computer that has a fresh wallet with a different registered account on it will my coins move from one account to the other?

2. will this enable my coins to be accessed on two different pcs at the same time?

3. what happens if one pc gets destroyed somehow will the other wallet be safe?

4. if i have more than one account in my bitshares wallet dashboard do i need more than one backup file?

5. can i delete an account from the dashboard if i made one by mistake ?

6. when i add funds to a wallet after its been backed up..do i need a new backup file?

7. do i need to enter my wallet password when i plug the new usb stick in a new computer to input the new wallet..if so where?

Seems I overestimated how much time NASDAQ invests in research prior to execution ..
In the end, we should try to be a lot more present at conferences, meetups and workshops/hackatons..

So I don't think its simply an issue of research. Nadaq is one of the most technologically advances exchanges in all areas of the exchange business not just trade execution. They really want to use this technology to consolidate back office operations because it will allow for them to have a competitive advantage over those other exchanges that have more heavily invested in clearing services.

To be fair they are only just getting their feet wet and bitcoin being the premier blockchain at the moment is a good way of doing that. They are using bitcoin to manage cap tables which can be adequately performed using bitcoins blockchain and open assets. I can't remember where exactly I reqd this, but I'm pretty sure they are looking for alternatives to bitcoin going forward.

I think it would be really beneficial to reach out nasdaq to give them an idea of what this technology is capable in terms of scalability and in terms of compliance. Additionally I think it would be good to reach out CMEs Strategic Investment Group, which invested in ripple.

Our pitch to these exchanges should be that clients can create their own ETPs, thereby allowing these exchanges to capture a larger share of the OTC markets and position themselves for changes in regulatory guidance such as MiFID II which will restrict OTC trading in the future.

I am 100% with you. We all need to step our game up and let them know.

It says nothing about using Bitcoins blockchain. It says they are going to use tech behind it. Who knows what they are cookin up

"Earlier this year, Nasdaq joined a clutch of companies seeking to adapt blockchain for mainstream finance, saying it would “leverage blockchain technology as part of an enterprise-wide initiative.”
“We also plan to announce further blockchain initiatives in the future,” Greifeld said Thursday during a conference call with analysts. “The application of blockchain technology within Nasdaq’s private market aims to modernize, streamline and really secure cumbersome administrative functions,”
Last month, Symbiont, which plans to use blockchain to make it quicker and cheaper to transfer assets between buyers and sellers, raised $1.25 million from financial industry heavyweights including former New York Stock Exchange chief Duncan Niederauer, former Citadel LLC executive Matt Andresen, and two co-founders of high-frequency trading firm Getco LLC, Dan Tierney and Stephen Schuler."


Imo we have the potential to already be at number 2 on CMC people just dont see it yet. Im sure if they are in talks with a big bank then they can get in touch with who they need to. The devs seem very intelligent. Only thing im wondering is if the Nasdaq does create its own blockchain that will render Bitshares useless correct?
