- Hey! Hey!
Hey, have you heard the gossip on Hashgraph?
- Of course, I'm the Gossip Guy.
I have all the gossip on Hashgraph.
Welcome back for another
Weekly Gossip in Hashgraph.
Mark your calendars for Hedara18.
Hashgraph goes back to school.
Bringing Hashgraph to Cryptoland.
Plus some other interesting updates
from the world powered by Hashgraph.
With all this said, let's begin.
What is he talking about?
And who am I?
That's a secret you obviously know.
You know you like me.
Hashgraph Hashgraph.
Hi everyone, it's the Gossip Guy,
and I have some good gossip for you this week.
First, as I covered in last week's episode,
and probably some of the biggest news
coming from Hedera Hashgraph,
is the announcement of Hedera18.
As a recap, Hedera18 is
the inaugural Hashgraph Developer Conference
set to take place in Dallas, Texas,
on October 15th through the 17th.
Accompanying this conference
will be a distributed global hackathon,
or Hackathon18,
that will be taking place in
four major cities around the world.
This includes Tel Aviv, Israel,
Singapore, Sao Paolo, Brazil,
and London, England.
Also, we learned more about this event
via a special announcement made by
Hashgraph inventor himself,
Dr. Leemon Baird,
that had circulated on YouTube.
This is obviously an exciting development,
and should provide a cornerstone event
for the community to come together
and learn more about the Hedera Hashgraph platform
and for developers to gather further resources
and tools before the public launch,
set to take place in 2019.
Plus, those that participate in the hackathon
will also gain access to
the Hedera Hashgraph testnet,
which will be provided even after
the event is completed.
If you're interested in attending the conference,
you can go to the Hedera18 website
in order to register,
and for further information.
One small note,
there's a cost associated with this event,
which is pretty typical
for a conference of this size.
However, the hackathon will be free
for all those that participate,
and there's special arrangements for students
and promo codes floating around.
Myself, the Gossip Guy, will be in attendance,
and I've also been in correspondence
with the Hedera Hashgraph team,
regarding doing some content
and coverage from the event.
Thus, I look forward to seeing many of you
in the community that will attend the event,
and I hope we can gossip more about Hashgraph.
Also, as a fun fact,
this happens to be the 18th episode
of my Weekly Gossip in Hashgraph series,
so I thought it was suiting
to talk about Hedera18.
Next, Hashgraph goes back to school
with an interview on Dapp University,
made by Ken Anderson,
the lead developer advocate for Hedera Hashgraph.
As an introduction,
Dapp University is an emerging website
and YouTube channel,
focused on dAPP development
within the distributed ledger space,
and provides educational-focused content.
This was an interesting interview,
as it focused on the development
of the Hedera Hashgraph platform
and the resources created to further support
developers creating dAPPs on top of Hashgraph.
If you're a developer,
or just curious about dAPP development on Hashgraph,
or the Hedera Hashgraph platform overall,
I recommend that you watch this video.
However, as I've done before for other videos,
I thought to compile a summary
over some of the interesting points
that I've took away from this interview.
The interview starts with Ken's introduction
to the Hashgraph Consensus Algorithm,
and the Hereda Hashgraph platform overall,
which, at this point,
I think many of you might be familiar with.
However, Ken notes,
this summer the team will be releasing
the APIs associated with Hedera Hashgraph,
and some developers will be selected
to join limited versions of the testnets.
All communications regarding this will be
conducted via the developer's Discord server,
and Ken notes that developers selected
to register for the testnet
will be subjected to due diligence,
which is mainly done as a precaution
by the Hedera Hashtag team
until the testing environment
is fully trustless.
Once gaining access to the testnet,
those dAPPS being developed will be
also registered on an internal marketplace.
All those with projects officially announced
announced within the Hashgraph ecosystem
will also have their own private
versions of the testnets,
starting mid to late summer.
Another interesting item,
and we've heard before,
but the testnet will also be
open to the community members
to participate in testing
which will include developers
testing some of the technical aspects
of the platform,
but Ken notes that there will be
a series of end user testing,
which may be something less technical users
might consider getting involved with.
For example, sending transactions between wallets.
Lastly, anyone interested in
gaining access to the testnet
or participating in these tests,
should register their interest
on the Hedera Hashgraph website.
Like I said before,
this was a great interview,
so I recommend that you go check it out.
Okay, next up, we go to Cryptoland,
a community of developers in Cluj-Napoca, Romania,
where myself, the Gossip Guy,
had the opportunity to present on
Who's Using Hashgraph?
Thanks to the growing Hashgraph community,
I was invited to speak to the Cryptoland community
by Hashgraph Ambassador, Alex Males.
If you don't know,
Cluj-Napoca is the fourth-largest city in Romania,
and is also considered the unofficial capital
of the Transylvania region.
It's also home to Romania's largest university,
and has a community of close to 15,000
system engineers and developers,
giving Cluj-Napoca a vibrant population
of IT professionals.
Cryptoland is a tech-driven community
set up for those interested in blockchain,
and other distributed ledger technologies.
Essentially, Cryptoland provides an opportunity
for software engineers and product people
to easily collaborate, partner,
and share knowledge around emerging technologies.
As part of a recent meet-up,
Cryptoland hosted a Smart Contract workshop
that also featured Hashgraph.
Now, unfortunately,
the Gossip Guy wasn't able to go to Romania,
so I presented via teleconference,
starting off with the overview
of the Hashgraph Consensus Algorithm,
the Hedera Hashgraph platform,
which was all followed by
an overview of the Hashgraph ecosystem.
I used this as an opportunity
to highlight some of the emerging projects
announced within the Hashgraph ecosystem,
which included Mingo, Carbon,
and, of course, Satori.
I wrapped things up with an overview
of some resources for developers,
which also included some content that I'd done.
Following my presentation,
Alex presented a thorough and detailed
walkthrough of the Hashgraph Consensus Algorithm,
that provided insights into the core benefits
of this emerging technology.
Alex also ran a live coding session,
and provided examples of Smart Contracts
in order to see Hashgraph in action.
I unfortunately didn't record
any video from this event,
however you can check out the presentations
that both Alex and myself presented,
which I've shared in the links down below.
This was a really great opportunity
to connect with the Cryptoland
community in Romania,
and I really appreciated the invite to present
by Alex and community co-founder Adrian,
so thank you for that.
If you're curious to learn more about Cryptoland,
or interested in building something similar
in your local community,
I've left links down below
where you can go for further information.
Now on to some other updates,
but pretty notable to say the less.
First up, Rightory,
a rights-management software solution
for media, content and branding,
announced their plans to launch exclusively
on the Hedera Hashgraph public network.
The Rightory platform enables users
to upload brand assets and rights data,
which are then associated
with specific intellectual property.
Rightory verifies ownership and records them
to the Hedera Hashgraph publish ledger,
enabling users on the platform to sell
or license assets via the Rightory marketplace.
This project looks to be
in the very early stages of development,
so we'll have to be on lookout for further information.
However, according to the press release,
Roy Malkin is the CEO of Rightory,
and is also the co-founder of Venture Aviator,
which is a software development firm
that has been pretty active already
within the Hashgraph developer community.
Thus, with all this said,
let's welcome Rightory into the Hashgraph ecosystem.
Next, announced this week,
Hedera Hashgraph has joined the Trusted IOT Alliance,
which is an open source software consortium
that aims to create secure, scalable
and interoperable solutions within
the Internet of Things ecosystem.
As a member of the Alliance,
Hedera will work with Fortune 500 companies
and start-up members to leverage the
Hashgraph Consensus Algorithm
to secure and scale IOT ecosystems.
Hedera Hashgraph is also joined in the Alliance
by several other notable DLT platforms.
It looks like the Hedera Hashgraph team
has already been working with
the Trusted IOT Alliance testnet,
so it will be interesting to see
what further developments come out of this.
And lastly, as a community update,
The Hedera Hashgraph Telegram channel
recently reached over 40,000 members.
This is certainly a notable milestone
as the Hashgraph community continues to grow.
So that's it,
that's all the gossip that I have for you this week.
I hope you found this video to be informative,
and, if so, be sure to leave a like
or a comment down below.
I'm really excited for Hedera18,
as this is gonna serve as an opportunity
for many of us in the community to get together.
Speaking of community,
and if you wanna continue the gossip
related to Hashgraph,
be sure to join us on the Gossip Groups
Discord server that was recently launched.
We've already had some pretty insightful discussions
amongst some of the members in the community,
so I hope you can join us.
