bodyEveryone loves to get something for free. Whether we’d like to admit it, many of us feel as though we are chronically underappreciated and under-rewarded, so when the opportunity to get something for nothing – or very little – arises, we jump at it. It is this nuance of the human condition that has drives the increasing popularity of token airdrops in the blockchain world. But what exactly is a token airdrop? A token airdrop refers to the gifting of cryptocurrency tokens to users free of charge. Much like the free samples of anti-wrinkle cream or moisturiser handed out at the local beauty counter, token airdrops are “samples” of a token provides to early-stage supporters of a particular project. Airdrops are also used to reward frequent users of a particular blockchain service. For example, in February 2018, cryptocurrency exchange Binance conducted an airdrop of 1.5m tokens to the top 500 000 Binance accounts with the greatest amounts of coins. Each eligible Binance account received three tokens. TrustBar’s token airdrop is currently live and will end on 31 July, 2018. To qualify for the airdrop, you need to sign up to the TrustBar airdrop mailing list, follow TrustBar on Twitter and join the Telegram channel. Once you have joined our airdrop mailing list, you can also join our referral club and generate your own unique link to earn more through referrals. Due for launch in December, TrustBar will become the first global decentralised exchange that will allow secure cross-chain and cross-token trading through a single transaction. Details of the user funds will be protected by individual private keys and will not be stored on the platform, while dynamic pairing allows each user to select the buy/sell pairs, speeding up token exchange and reducing costs TrustBar’s Initial Coin Offering (ICO), which targets a capital raise of $35 million, will be conducted on the NEO blockchain platform on 31 August.

bodyA landmark study by The Cambridge Centre for Alternative Finance has described centralised exchanges, which have possession of user funds denominated in cryptocurrency and control customers’ private keys ,as a potentially attractive 'honeypot' for hackers. “The surge in market prices of cryptocurrencies in recent years has made exchanges a popular target for criminals, as they handle and store large amounts of cryptocurrencies. Numerous events have led to the loss of exchange customer funds, and a wide variety of schemes have been employed ranging from outside server breaches to insider theft,” states the report. “In many cases, exchanges where losses occurred were forced to close and customer funds were never recovered.” Released in June this year, the study is the first of its kind to examine the burgeoning global cryptocurrency industry and its key constituents, which include exchanges, wallets, payments and mining. Among its findings was that larger, more established exchanges act more often as custodians than small exchanges, with only 11% of large exchanges allowing users control over their keys compared with 30% of smaller exchanges. Despite many cases of internal fraud and bankruptcies of centralised exchanges, peer-to-peer, or decentralised exchanges are still in the minority, the study found. Of the 51 exchanges represented in the study, only 2 provide a decentralised marketplace for exchanging cryptocurrencies. Despite currently only holding a partial slice of the exchange market, peer-to-peer exchanges are steadily gaining favour, with South African start-up TrustBar also set to soon join the party. Due for launch in December, TrustBar will become the first global decentralised exchange that will allow secure cross-chain and cross-token trading through a single transaction Details of the user funds will be protected by individual private keys and will not be stored on the platform, while dynamic pairing allows each user to select the buy/sell pairs, speeding up token exchange and reducing costs. The trend towards decentralisation appears to reinforce the views of Ethereum creator Vitalik Buterin, who is increasingly embracing the decentralisation of cryptotrading and interfacing between the fiat world and cryptocurrencies. “I definitely hope centralised exchanges go burn in hell as much as possible,” Buterin said during a recent TechCruch Sessions discussion. Meanwhile, the study also put the combined market value of all cryptocurrencies by April 2017 at $27 billion, which represented “a level of value created on on the order of Silicon Valley success stories like AirBnB”. This constitutes an almost threefold increase on the total cryptocurrency market capitalisaton since early 2016. It also estimated the current number of unique active users of cryptocurrency wallets at between 2.9 million and 5.8 million. “The lines between wallets and exchanges are increasingly blurred: 52% of wallets surveyed providing an integrated currency exchange feature, of which 80% offer a national-to-cryptocurrency exchange service. In contrast with exchanges, the majority of wallets do not control access to user keys,” it states. The report adds that this estimate of the total number of active wallets does not include users whose exchange accounts serve as their de facto wallet to store cryptocurrency, nor users from payment service providers or other platforms that enable the storage of cryptocurrency. “In other words, the total number of active cryptocurrency users is likely considerably higher than our estimate of unique active wallet users,” it notes. ![BTC_graffiti_in_Tel_Aviv.jpg](https://cdn.steemitimages.com/DQmbYc2hEn7B3LgnyJ3sdEvrdKdGF57bLzsnURDd4t2xXP2/BTC_graffiti_in_Tel_Aviv.jpg)

bodyA landmark study by The Cambridge Centre for Alternative Finance has described centralised exchanges, which have possession of user funds denominated in cryptocurrency and control customers’ private keys ,as a potentially attractive 'honeypot' for hackers. “The surge in market prices of cryptocurrencies in recent years has made exchanges a popular target for criminals, as they handle and store large amounts of cryptocurrencies. Numerous events have led to the loss of exchange customer funds, and a wide variety of schemes have been employed ranging from outside server breaches to insider theft,” states the report. “In many cases, exchanges where losses occurred were forced to close and customer funds were never recovered.” Released in June this year, the study is the first of its kind to examine the burgeoning global cryptocurrency industry and its key constituents, which include exchanges, wallets, payments and mining. Among its findings was that larger, more established exchanges act more often as custodians than small exchanges, with only 11% of large exchanges allowing users control over their keys compared with 30% of smaller exchanges. Despite many cases of internal fraud and bankruptcies of centralised exchanges, peer-to-peer, or decentralised exchanges are still in the minority, the study found. Of the 51 exchanges represented in the study, only 2 provide a decentralised marketplace for exchanging cryptocurrencies. Despite currently only holding a partial slice of the exchange market, peer-to-peer exchanges are steadily gaining favour, with South African start-up TrustBar also set to soon join the party. Due for launch in December, TrustBar will become the first global decentralised exchange that will allow secure cross-chain and cross-token trading through a single transaction Details of the user funds will be protected by individual private keys and will not be stored on the platform, while dynamic pairing allows each user to select the buy/sell pairs, speeding up token exchange and reducing costs. The trend towards decentralisation appears to reinforce the views of Ethereum creator Vitalik Buterin, who is increasingly embracing the decentralisation of cryptotrading and interfacing between the fiat world and cryptocurrencies. “I definitely hope centralised exchanges go burn in hell as much as possible,” Buterin said during a recent TechCruch Sessions discussion. Meanwhile, the study also put the combined market value of all cryptocurrencies by April 2017 at $27 billion, which represented “a level of value created on on the order of Silicon Valley success stories like AirBnB”. This constitutes an almost threefold increase on the total cryptocurrency market capitalisaton since early 2016. It also estimated the current number of unique active users of cryptocurrency wallets at between 2.9 million and 5.8 million. “The lines between wallets and exchanges are increasingly blurred: 52% of wallets surveyed providing an integrated currency exchange feature, of which 80% offer a national-to-cryptocurrency exchange service.
