Times may be getting … interesting, so I thought it important to begin sharing information (PDF) that I've found, with people I care about. For those of you that may be interested in diversifying your savings options, I wanted to send you some information that has been difficult for people to collect. Perhaps it might be useful to you. (FYI: to become involved in the Holo project, the HOT Ethereum ERC-20 token is available on Uniswap v3 (or v2), and on Binance.

We propose that it is possible to build "Mars Coin" on Holochain (PDF). Now that lunar and interplanetary expansion appears to be a realistic goal, how will cryptocurrency transactions be affected by the communications time between earth, the moon and other planets in our solar system? It takes between 5 and 20 minutes for one-way communications between Mars and Earth (depending on their orbital positions), and 2.4 to 2.7 seconds between Earth and Moon.

Can Global Consensus cryptocurrencies be used as a form of money? Bitcoin, Ethereum, etc. have completely different implementations, but share a common idea – that all transactions in their ledgers are agreed to by all participants, simultaneously; that there is a single, agreed-upon global "state" of the ledger's data at each point in time. This data-centric, distributed global synchronous, simultaneous agreement amongst all blockchain participants differs greatly from how money currently works, and brings with it a number of surprising results.
