Creation of Libra Coin



The organization will use the funds parked in a group of stable banks (essentially, a basket of bonds) which will then theoretically maintain a relatively stable price over time. So there’s a stable price mechanism, and Libra Coins will be minted against the Libra Reserve, against those assets.
Allocation of Libra Coin will happen two ways:

The first way, which people may be somewhat familiar with, is allotting Libra Coins to Founding Members based on their $10m buy-in or membership fee. The Founding Members will then turn around and “stake” those coins in the Libra Network (which we’ll talk about later), essentially guaranteeing the safety of the network at the risk of losing this investment.
The second way—which people aren’t as familiar with—is through the currency that individual consumers use to buy into the network.





New Libra Coins will be minted for users as a 1:1 equivalent for “fiat and transfer of that fiat to the reserve.”

This hasn’t been discussed as much but is a crucial element of the network and one that brings up a lot of outstanding questions.

It also leads us to our last feature we’ll discuss in the Libra Reserve: Authorized Resellers
In the Libra Reserve white paper, it says:
“Users will not directly interface with the reserve. Rather, to support higher efficiency, there will be authorized resellers who will be the only entities authorized by the association to transact large amounts of fiat and Libra in and out of the reserve.”

To partition off KYC / AML and local regulations, Libra creates a barrier between the Libra Reserve and customers by creating a class of network participants called “Authorized Resellers”. In an episode with Laura Shin on her podcast Unconfirmed, Libra’s Head of Communication and Policy suggested Libra would push down local regulation, and adherence to the Authorized Resellers with Libra Reserve would typically deal with international AML laws that are currently in place for international financial institutions.

So, the authorized resellers will be digital wallets that act as the on- and off-ramps for customers. They will take local currency from users of their digital wallet and provide Libra Coin in return. In some sort of transaction, those authorized resellers will either purchase a large amount of Libra Coin in their local currency, or somehow obtain a large amount of Libra Coin which they then distribute to their users.

Have mymonero some problems ?

Hello, this is user pandher from BTCtalk. I have been a follower and holder of Monero since 2014 when the first bitmonero thread appeared on BTCtalk. Since that thread i knew Monero was the only one worth following. The professionalism and honesty of the dev team was a rare sight in that shitcoin madness. Checking the Monero reddit page and speculation thread had become a morning habit with me. I rarely missed reading both of these in these 2 years. I saw the community grow from a few hundred to a few thousand. It was so good to watch, to witness. Although i was mostly non vocal i felt myself as a part of this community. Reading AP's posts about the new world domination were exciting. But today i bid farewell to this wonderful community. All my Monero have been stolen Since zhalox posted about his lost Monero, i woke up from my slumber and created a cold wallet using GingerAle's paranoid method. Only to find out all my 4 MyMonero accounts were wiped on 3 september 2016. I...

Dove le molecole smettono di Ur­tarsi: viaggio nella coerenza Quantistica della Vita

C’era un momento, nella storia della biologia, in cui la vita veniva immaginata come un enorme tavolo da biliardo. Molecole che si urtano. Collisioni casuali. Reazioni che accadono perché, semplicemente, qualcosa colpisce qualcos’altro nel modo giusto. Funzionava. Più o meno. Poi, lentamente, qualcosa ha iniziato a incrinarsi. Non perché quella visione fosse sbagliata, ma perché era incompleta. Troppo rumorosa. Troppo cieca. Troppo… inefficiente per spiegare ciò che osservavamo davvero. Perché dentro le cellule accadevano cose strane. Troppo veloci. Troppo precise. Troppo coordinate. Come se, invece di urtarsi alla cieca, le particelle… sapessero. Immagina di entrare dentro una cellula. Non troverai caos. Non troverai disordine. Troverai elettroni che scorrono come una valuta invisibile, scambiata con una precisione che sfida l’intuizione. Non saltano semplicemente da una molecola all’altra: a volte attraversano barriere che, secondo la fisica classica, non dovrebbero poter...

Ingegneria del contesto per l'intelligenza artificiale avanzata

  Quando si parla di IA generativa, il dibattito pubblico si concentra spesso su due aspetti: la potenza del modello e la qualità dei prompt. Tuttavia, tra questi due poli si trova un'area meno discussa ma cruciale:  il contesto  . Non stiamo parlando solo di "informazioni extra" per il modello, ma dell'architettura logica e operativa che determina il modo in cui l'intelligenza artificiale interpreta, collega e utilizza i dati per fornire risultati accurati e coerenti. È qui che entra in gioco  l'ingegneria del contesto  : l'arte (e la scienza) di progettare, organizzare e ottimizzare il contesto di un Large Language Model (LLM) per guidarlo verso risposte più affidabili, precise e utili. Perché l'ingegneria del contesto è importante Un LLM non "capisce" il mondo come gli esseri umani. Elabora modelli statistici in base agli input che riceve e ai dati di training.  Il contesto  è la combinazione di istruzioni, esempi, dati di supporto e rifer...
