      "title": "What the 4th Round of CCID Rankings Means for Nuls",
      "body": "Hello fellow crypto enthusiasts,\n\nIn the fourth round of CCID blockchain ratings and the first time Nuls was included in the rankings, Nuls placed 21st. This is a tremendous accomplishment for the Nuls core team and community. In a short time frame, Nuls has gone from an air-drop dark horse to a clear contender in the enterprise platform arena. The project is still young with plenty of good news in the pipeline. Here are the rankings(photo credit ot Coinness) and my takeaways from the results.\n![coiness.jpg](https://cdn.steemitimages.com/DQmXxBrWVgVa8qu5aNXCcGDGrAKNWPCtNqe8sH18yhDaYDa/coiness.jpg)\n\nFirst, Nuls has a relatively high innovation score and a solid technology score. It's applicability score leaves something to desire, however, this will likely change as Nuls already has adopters lined up. Second, comparing these rankings to Nuls market-cap suggests that Nuls is severely undervalued. At the time of writing, Nuls ranked 94 by market-cap at a market-cap of just over 64 million USD. OmiseGO is currently number 21 by market-cap and sits at just under 600 million USD total market-cap. This doesn't mean Nuls will go to a 600 million USD market-cap but it suggests there is a lot of opportunity for a great ROI. Finally, Nuls will be releasing smart contracts and an innovative feature chain factory in the near future. Chain factory will be a game changer in the crypto space as it will enable organizations to easily and effectively create a side chain suited to their enterprise needs. With these changes, expect Nuls to rise in the rankings.\n\nDisclaimed: I am a Nuls community member and Hodler.\n\nThanks, and I hope you enjoyed. Drop any thoughts in the comments below.",

I could not stop watching. His stone-faced commentary as he embarks on great feats of incredulity and game-breaking strategies is incredibly entertaining. The stark contrast between the trollish tactics and the serious casting ensure that his videos will keep you coming  back for more. \n![](https://cdn.steemitimages.com/DQmSwGwiKtLY4zdZUFyULMxcQX5DS4g458n8EHdfsB1gDQ6/image.png)\n\nThe strategy game caster of the week is: \n![](https://cdn.steemitimages.com/DQmYRr6Th62Y1Gwb21oh4ciDwz9ZJ6KUKcTFshy1M5VWWma/image.png)\n2kliksphilip.\n\n2kliksphilip  is a variety caster who provides a wide array of entertaining content.

      "body": "The city was unbearably hot that summer. A terrible stench clung to the streets. It wafted its way in between the insulae, those hastily and haphazardly thrown up apartments that sprawled for miles. Augustus and Trajan had tried to restrict their heights over concerns of shoddy work. Imperial glory that had carried Roman rule to the farthest reaches of the world(or approximately a thousand miles shy of Alexander’s trek to the Ganges. Flagstones were hot to the touch. Ill clothed miscreants hopped from stone to stone squealing, their rags failing ridiculously to cover their nakedness. They were always hovering around Lucius Domitius’ house.\n\tIt was a modest home by any patrician’s standards. Indeed, a large number of plebes would have found it little more than a hovel. In Lucius’ neighborhood it was a palace. The children of the impoverished loved to play around Lucius’ front doors. He was known as a generous and gentle man. He lived alone and had no wife or children though he was past the proper age for starting a family. There had been days he had dreamed of it when he was young and worked on his father’s farm. The country seemed a better place for such nonsense. Honest work had been easier to come by out there in the old days. Lucius thought that everyone had been kinder then, although it was likely just distortion thrown by the lenses of nostalgia and childhood wonder. It couldn’t have been as good as I remember it. We wouldn’t have left. No matter what.\n\tA portly, young man with an obscenely worn tunic came waltzing to Lucius’ house from across the street. Flavius was a congenial fellow. His wit was sharp when he wasn’t caught up in the haze of a cheap win (which was a rare occasion). \n\t“Lucius, old chap!” he called as he waved wildly. “Great news...horse races. I have an inside man at the Circus. He says The Greek’s chariot is bound to win.” Flavius was gasping when he finally reached the steps of Lucius’ house. \n\t“The same ‘inside man’ who said the Greek would win last week when the Gaul lapped him?”\n\t“Ah yes, I was thinking about that. The Gaul did win, but he was from Massilia, so clearly he was a descendant of the Greek colony there back in the day. I misunderstood him.” Flavius looked quite pleased with the cleverness of his explanation. Lucius laughed.\n\t“So which Greek do I put my money on? The Greek from Greece or the ‘Greek’ from Gaul?”\n\t“Blast! I knew I forgot to ask him that. Oh well, I haven’t the money to drink and gamble. We can settle for just drink. Grab a flagon and we’ll visit our dear friend the winery.”\n\t“No need. I expected you. I sent Adelina for an amphora this morning. We have an hour or two before we have to go. Can I offer you some refreshments inside.”\n\t“It would be rude for me to refuse.” Flavius was delighted. Free wine and free food! What more could a man desire? \n\tAdelina bowed as they entered. Her fair hair was damp with sweat. \n\t“Forgive me, Dominus. I did not expect you to return from your walk so soon.” \n\t“It is fine Adelina. There is no need to be polite with Flavius even if he is a patrician. Adelina means to say that she did not expect you to run out of wine at ten in the morning. I’m not sure why though. This is the third time this month.” Adelina struggled not to laugh. \n\t“What do you desire Dominus?”\n\t“Wine and the venison you got this morning should do nicely. Some figs if we have them.” Adelina bowed and left.\n\tLucius and Flavius reclined on couches.\n“How is your father, Flavius? Is his health still holding strong.” Flavius shrugged.\n“Holding up, not holding strong. He is a stubborn old man. Too stubborn for his own good. Maybe too stubborn for death even.”\n“He is a good man.”\n“There aren’t many of those left in Rome, even Italia for that matter. I suppose that’s what war will do though.”\n\n“We were strong in the past despite always fighting wars. It feels as though we’ve lost the will to fight. They say it’s easier to pay barbarians to do it. Could you imagine what Africanus would say? Relying on foreign soldiers to guard our borders.” Flavius nodded in assent. \n\n“Your father had a nice way of putting it. ‘A people who will not fight for their home will soon have no home. He was a good man also. A great man.” Lucius laughed.\n\n“Two great men with two idle sons. A nice allegory for the Tetrarchy. I wonder how wise it is to trust our defenses to the Goths. A sword for hire is a sword without a sire.”\n\n“They get paid in gold too. Oh, to be a Goth and not have to take the Emperor’s shit!”\n\n“Mind your words, Flavius. I won’t have my house raided.”\n\n“I’m sorry, Lucius. I am just a little sore at how far my denarii go. They’re positively worthless now. More tin than silver I’d wager.”\n\n“You’d wager if you had any denarii, silver or tin.” Adelina had reentered the room. She was dressed in a fine dress of crimson linen. Her figure was erect and shapely. Her blue eyes caught the sunlight gleaming through the open portion of the ceiling.\n\n“Bah, Lucius! Will you allow your property to talk to me this way. You’ve gone soft having a Christian in your house.” \nHe spoke in jest of course. Flavius loved Adelina’s wit even more than he loved her beauty. She was given a free reign by Lucius, but she was dutiful and obedient nonetheless. Many masters would have treated her as an object for pleasure. Lucius was not one of those masters. He was kind, a trait many found foolish.\n\n“I would not speak so harshly. She controls the flow of wine and food in this house.”\n\n“That is true, Dominus. I would also like to remind Flavius that in his case, it is quite a considerable flow. I’m certain he would be sad if it were to stop right before the races today. However, I have information as well as food. The Greek will not win today, Massalian or actually Greek. The smart money's on a newcomer, a Briton. He has long odds too, so the payout should be good.”\n\n“Ah, why didn’t you tell me you knew this last week,” said Flavius woefully. \n\n“You had food and drink in your larder last week, so I did not see you.” Flavius wanted to respond, but he was occupied with his cup of wine. \n\n\n“Some days I feel odd...out of place even. Don’t you?”\n\n“What do you mean?” asked Flavius.\n\n“I just feel like we’re some of the last Romans.”\n\n“What are you on about, Lucius? What does that even mean. Rome is one of the largest cities in the world.”\n\n“I just feel like I am the last Roman of Rome as it were. Does that make sense?”\n\n“As it were when? This is a puzzling question. Rome seems much the same as it was in my father’s day.”\n\n“But maybe not so much the same as his father or his father’s father?” Lucius persisted.\n\n“If you follow that logic far back enough, a ‘true’ Roman would be licking Etruscan sandals for mercy. We are not always lesser than our fathers. If that were the case, we would still roam the world like wild beasts. But...I think you are right. I do not feel like my father’s son.”\n“I feel like chaff falling from the grain. I am listless in an unkind wind.”\n“Poetic, Dominus,” chimed Adelina as she poured more wine. “I’m sure the muses themselves would be jealous.” Lucius blushed. He had a way with words and being overdramatic with them. Flavius laughed.\n“I told you, Lucius, you are far too soft on her. You must be strict, rigid. It is the only way to maintain respect.” Adelina scoffed. \n“You could be as firm and hard as you like, Master Flavius. I will find it hard to respect you. Besides, who is to say I was not sincere?”\n\t\tLucius’s eyes followed his slave to the amphorae.",

Cue the bears and calls of \"NEXT STOP 4K.\" We probably won't see 4K anytime soon. To keep this in perspective, take a look at BTC's charts over the past few months. This dip shouldn't change anything.\n\nIn my opinion, Bitcoin is sitting on the edge of a knife for short term price trajectory. Good news could send BTC back up to $10,000, but bad news could see us relive the horrors of $5800 hell. The SEC's ruling on seven BTC ETF applications is the most clearly delineated catalyst for an upward or downward price shock.

      "body": "Hello Strategy gaming enthusiasts,\n\nThis is the first of iteration of a weekly review of a caster in strategy games. This mostly encompasses RTS and Grand Strategy casters on either Twitch or Voobly. Let me know what you think, and I hope I expose you to some great casters as we go.\n\nThe caster of this week is a wee lad who thinks its still 1999 and Age of Empires II is still at the cutting edge of RTS. Somehow, he is right about the second part. AOE2 has gone through a bit of a renaissance lately. There is currently a tournament with a $60,000 dollar prize pool ongoing. Not bad, grandpa, not bad. Catch the Escape Champions League on Twitch.\n![aoe2.jpg](https://cdn.steemitimages.com/DQmUieSEMkTYXPsC1Tv1CXbvaXS6hdMz4g4JWbwYdfTDWpv/aoe2.jpg)\n\nThis caster is noted for trolling community games on Twitch. Subscribers and the general public  play an online multi-player game, often with ridiculous settings.  A fan favorite is \"Forest Nothing,\" an absurd map where the entire map except for your starting town center is covered with trees and only trees. Players are forced to cut to get the space to build anything. Once they can clear enough space for a market, they will have to sell wood to buy other resources. In AOE2, when you sell or buy a resource the price of the resource will decrease and increase respectively. By the end of the game wood is dirt cheap and everything else is exorbitantly expensive. This caster of the week's hilarious commentary highlights the plain ridiculousness of the scenario. If you are ever unfortunate enough to play Forest Nothing, choose the Celts. Their woodcutting bonus is key to being able to clear space, and sell wood for other resources faster than other players. \n\nThe caster of the week is.... *drumroll*........![t90.jpg](https://cdn.steemitimages.com/DQmbacRLtY2Y3DmARZ4i8QfXCV1imDgMAZBW1GdvUPDaFgL/t90.jpg)\n T90Official. \nCheck him out on Twitch and Youtube.  https://www.twitch.tv/t90official https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCZUT79WUUpZlZ-XMF7l4CFg\n\nThanks for stopping by.

      "title": "The Next Unicorn Crypto?",
      "body": "Hello Fellow Crypto Enthusiasts, \n\nSince the golden bull run of 2017 came to a halt, alternative crypto-currencies have been getting hammered. Projects that over-promised and under-delivered have begun their slow trickle to death, one by one. The altpocalypse has not been kind. It got me thinking what is next for crypto? Clearly, the crypto market was (and likely still is) bloated with projects that are either a) redundant or b) miles away from a viable network. In a sea of shitcoins you need to find a unicorn. There is one project in particular that has stood out to me this year. \n\nNuls is a Singapore-based, Proof of Credit consensus, enterprise platform. I read the white paper for the project in late 2017 and was thoroughly impressed, so I dove in. I gradually accumulated up until the wheels fell off of the market. Fortunately, Nuls weathered the storm better than most. ![](https://cdn.steemitimages.com/DQmU3X4e5DLw16nSBByao4JwR4uhyNCrMzrFJvyTkdrjtyz/image.png)\n\nThroughout the rough half year, Nuls' team and community have banded together to make this project a real contender in the enterprise block-chain sector. The core developer team is one of the hardest working teams that routinely contends for the most github commits in crypto.  They quietly put together an incredibly sleek and intuitive wallet and network infrastructure that is easily navigated by even tech novices. Staking and receiving rewards is incredibly simple. The core team is backed up by a proactive and competent community that truly believe in the project. \n\nPerhaps what stands out to me the most about the project, is how the team quietly and professionally goes about their business in the wild west of crypto that is riddled with exit scams, unsubstantiated claims of partnerships, and over-hyped vaporware. Nuls has achieved a lot this year while flying under the radar. Mainnet launched successfully earlier this month. Partners are being accumulated at a steady clip, most notably Inchain and MC Payments(a huge payments collection provider in the Asia Pacific region). Nuls just received a USDT pairing on Binance. Finally, Smart Contracts and the Chain factory function should be coming out early this fall.\n\nIn conclusion, Nuls is in a prime position to claim significant market share in the Enterprise block-chain sector and stands head and shoulders above most other alts for three main reasons. First, Nuls has delivered a functioning mainnet with a solid POC consensus network. Second, Nuls has solid partnerships and adopters lined up to drive demand for the underlying token. Third and finally, Nuls is headed up by a skilled core team and supported by a strong community that will help the project develop and progress to maturity. \n\nI highly recommend you doing your own research. Take a look at the website, Nuls.io. You can find the white and yellow paper there as well as join the Telegram or follow on twitter. Telegram is a great place for more details and the community loves answering questions. If you don't like what you see, don't buy. If you do like what you see, think carefully before making a decision. This is not financial advice, and I have no affiliation with the Nuls team.",
