In 2018 our world faces real challenges, but also immense opportunity. Our world is globalizing, and digitising. At the heart of this is emerging technologies like blockchain, and the promise it offers.<\/p>\n<p>Within neuroscience, medical professionals aspire to make a very compelling contribution.<\/p>\n<p>Though our world has indeed become more culturally and economically borderless than anytime before in history, when it comes to building ties those closest to us have long been overlooked. Governance remains impersonal and inefficient. It\u2019s \u2018analog\u2019 existence undermining efforts of so many Americans ready to advance in good faith, and work in good will to find common ground.<\/p>\n<p>These efforts are frustrated because voting is centralised. Flowing up to Washington, instead of flowing through America. That\u2019s why <a href=\"http:\/\/www.projectoblio.com\/\">Project Oblio<\/a>: Mobile Populism is so inspiring. It doesn&#8217;t seek just electoral college reform, but total voting reform. To put power back in the hands of everyday Americans. To see voting via blockchain become a true one-person-one-vote system.<\/p>\n<p>Equality that a democracy aspires to, equality as it should be &#8211; and equality as it finally will be.<\/p>\n<h1 class=\"entry-title\">Mobile Populism Giveaway<\/h1>\n<h4>THE SECRET SATOSHI DOESN\u2019T WANT YOU TO KNOW<\/h4>\n<p>We live in an era where the wealth gap is steadily increasing. Cryptocurrency represents humanity\u2019s best chance of closing it. It is astounding to consider that a cryptocurrency with a fair and balanced distribution scheme has not yet been conceptualized, given the deleterious effects of the wealth gap on our lives.<\/p>\n<p>Project Oblio: Mobile Populism has been under construction since\u00a02015\u00a0and is best explained and understood by reference to\u00a0the EOS cryptocurrency.\u00a0 The main difference between Oblio and EOS is that here,\u00a0votes for block-producers are based on a potentially-anonymous and\u00a0fluid\u00a0biometric trust level.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.futuresandoptions.gr\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/07\/oblio.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"size-medium wp-image-3808 aligncenter\" src=\"https:\/\/www.futuresandoptions.gr\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/07\/oblio-300x169.jpg\" alt=\"oblio\" width=\"300\" height=\"169\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<p>EOS rate-limits transactions at the smart contract level, whereas Oblio limits them at the user-level. EOS votes based on wealth, Oblio requires a minimum biometric trust level for voters to take action. With Oblio, block producers can be voted in and out based on their personality, not on the quantity of tokens in their possession.<\/p>\n<p>Cryptocurrency exchanges which rely primarily on automation with their wallets are the ones which pay the most in user fees. Nevertheless, these fees are unlikely to amount to exceed those of competing blockchains; automated transactions comprise ~99% of transactions anyway. With humans engaging in such a miniscule amount of transactions themselves, distinguishing between a person sending money to a friend, and a segment of artificial intelligent being put to work for a business, has become a challenge. Fortunately, we believe we can overcome that challenge.<\/p>\n<p>The real secret Satoshi doesn\u2019t want you to know? The slight catering towards CPUs (\u201cone-CPU-one-vote\u201d) is what causes blockchain fees, and prevents true adoption.\u00a0 The same goes for\u00a0any consensus algorithm relying on token-based wealth.<\/p>\n<p>You\u2019ll soon use the OBL (the abbreviation designation for the \u2018Oblio\u2019 coin) that you collect here to send payments to your friends and family at no additional cost. In fact, with Oblio, any smart contract which you want to access is well within the realm of being a feeless transaction.<\/p>\n<p><strong>We\u2019d like to remind you, Project Oblio is a research experiment!<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>We\u2019re a\u00a0small, but passionate team\u00a0of neuroscientists from Columbia University, Duke University, University of Pittsburgh, Universidade Cat\u00f3lica Portuguesa, and Rutgers University. We\u2019re proud to share with you a product called \u2018<strong>vybuds<\/strong>\u2018; a pair of affordable and high-quality bluetooth music headphones.\u00a0We\u2019re designing them to (almost-definitely) receive and process\u00a0commands\u00a0from facial movements, and potentially boost\u00a0focus\u00a0and\u00a0memory. Our first prototype is sufficiently inexpensive for people to afford and will eventually\u00a0generate\u00a0wealth\u00a0for Project Oblio in the form of\u00a0biometric\u00a0brainwave and\/or muscle\u00a0signals.\u00a0Read more about our liveness-detection algorithm applicable for voice data, brainwave data, and selfie video data.<\/p>\n<p>Unfortunately, the tech underlying vybuds is inadequate<strong>.\u00a0<\/strong>As such, following the conclusion of our airdrop, we\u2019ll be launching a\u00a0proof-of-address crypto-kickstarter\u00a0to facilitate the shipment of our prototype vybuds. We\u2019re also planning to make a 3D-printable version of vybuds open-source; most importantly, we are presently in the process of developing a new, peer-reviewed, open-source, multi-channel EEG\/tACS\/music-headphone\u00a0ASIC. This chip will be used to enhance the self-funding\u00a0of proposals, methods, data, publications, and replications of\u00a0\u00a0decentralized neuroscience.<\/p>\n<h3><a href=\"http:\/\/projectoblio.com\/academic-airdrop-short\/\">AIRDROP PROCEEDINGS<\/a><\/h3>\n<p>When science gets too entangled with money, bad things can happen.
