Listers, Might be of interest to some. Regards ---------- Forwarded message ---------- From: Filip Vukovinski <filip.vukovinski(a)net.hr> Date: Sun, Jul 29, 2018 at 8:27 PM Subject: [Internet Policy] Global Cryptocurrency Benchmarking Study To: ISOC Internet Policy List <internetpolicy(a)elists.isoc.org> Cambridge Judge Business School published a global cryptocurrencies study by Hileman and Rauchs. https://www.jbs.cam.ac.uk/faculty-research/centres/alternative-finance/ publications/global-cryptocurrency/#.W13zkvaxXcv "This is the first study to systematically investigate key cryptocurrency industry sectors by collecting empirical, non-public data. The study gathered survey data from nearly 150 cryptocurrency companies and individuals, and it covers 38 countries from five world regions. The study details the key industry sectors that have emerged and the different entities that inhabit them." Some of the key findings include the following: - The current number of unique active users of cryptocurrency wallets is estimated to be between 2.9 million and 5.8 million. - The lines between the different cryptocurrency industry sectors are increasingly blurred: 31 per cent of cryptocurrency companies surveyed are operating across two cryptocurrency industry sectors or more, giving rise to an increasing number of universal cryptocurrency companies. - At least 1,876 people are working full- time in the cryptocurrency industry, and the actual total figure is likely well above two thousand when large mining organisations and other organisations that did not provide headcount figures are added. - Average security headcount and costs for payment companies and exchanges as a percentage of total headcount/operating expenses are similar, but significantly higher for wallets.

An example of blockchain being used for activism in China
by Wairimu Macharia-Muturu 27 Jul '18

27 Jul '18

Chinese internet users employ blockchain to share a censored news article Chinese netizens have turned to blockchain to share a censored news story about faulty vaccines given to small babies. Their efforts to repost an investigative piece about a large vaccine maker were largely thwarted by internet monitors, but by sticking the story within the metadata of a cryptocurrency transaction, netizens have been able to outsmart the censors, as first spotted by *TechNode* <https://technode.com/2018/07/23/vaccine-scandal-blockchain/>*.* *See full article: https://www.theverge.com/2018/7/24/17607690/chinese-internet-users-blockcha… <https://www.theverge.com/2018/7/24/17607690/chinese-internet-users-blockcha…> *

House Intel chair calls for ban on electronic voting systems
by WANGARI KABIRU 27 Jul '18

27 Jul '18

House Intel chair calls for ban on electronic voting systems "House Intelligence Committee Chairman Devin Nunes (R-Calif.) called for a ban on electronic voting systems in an interview that aired Thursday on Hill.TV's "Rising." "The one thing we've been warning about for many, many years on the intelligence committee is about the electronic voting systems," Nunes told Hill.TV's Buck Sexton, who sat with the lawmaker on Wednesday. "Those are really dangerous in my opinion, and should not be used. In California — at least in the counties that I represent — they do not use an electronic system," he continued. "I think anybody that does that, and that's communicating over the web, it's going to be a challenge. So you have to make sure that you limit that as much as possible, and we need a paper trail so that you can go back in case you have to do a manual recount," he said..." Chebukati, Chiloba, IEBC walisemaje?.... Devine majuu yuasemaje? Be blessed.Regards/Wangari --- Pray God Bless. 2013Wangari circa - "Being of the Light, We are Restored Through Faith in Mind, Body and Spirit; We Manifest The Kingdom of God on Earth".
