Obviously, it remains to be seen but when it comes to being able to expand a phone into a tablet and back, I like the scrolling screen concept much more that the folding phone concept. What do you think? And as always, once the likes of LG Electronics and Samsung Electronics work out the kinks and if it is popular, we'll probably see one from Apple . #mobile #samsung #lgelectronics #apple #iphone #mobilephone #productdesign #productinnovation …see more

Libra, Facebook's proposed cryptocurrency, is in the news again. On Sunday, David Marcus, who heads the project, told a bunch of bankers that Libra's main goal was to create a more efficient payment system. When challenged about the current methodology, he offered several alternative financial structure: “We could definitely approach this with having a multitude of stablecoins that represent national currencies in a tokenized digital form. That is one of the options that should be considered.” Think about this... If Libra and Calibra are successful, Facebook will have control of information (Facebook, WhatsApp, and Instagram), weaponized information (a virtual military), and currency (Libra). Would that make Facebook the largest government on earth? …see more

the US govt. (Treasury Dept, US Trade Rep) is getting serious w/long standing currency manipulators. regulators regularly crack down on egregious currency manipulation. the former concerns countries, the latter banks. both manipulate fiat currencies. manipulation is rife, even in regulated markets - this does not mean regulation is useless, on the contrary. believing cryptocurrencies markets are healthy is foolish. however laudable Bitwise’s paper is, uncovering fake volume & wash trading, it is more than puzzling their analysis does not cover other questionable activities, does not delve into the Tether issue, or cherry picks data sets to fit a narrative that sanctifies a “small but healthy” market narrative. #cryptocurrency #banks #cryptocurrencies #regulation #fx #fiat #exchanges #currencies #markets #financialservices …see more

Yesterday, I got to speak with Botkeeper Founder and CEO (and my boss!) Enrico Palmerino about entrepreneurship and the road to Botkeeper. He said that "the nice thing about not being an accountant is that I didn't have a preconceived notion of how things should be done. I went into it with a clean slate and with an obsession for trying to do as little manual bookkeeping as possible."
