Hi guys!
I did a Meetup in León in the Edificio Rojo de la Agencia de Innovación tecnológica de León.
There were 11 assistants and two of them they were BItcoin maximalists, I have to confess that this is been my hardest meetup of all the tour cause those two assistants were doubting all the time of the possibility of Aeternity to achieve some of it’s goals.
It was a shared meetup in which Alex Casas was introducing DappNode, basically it’s an open software that makes so easy for non technical users to run their own nodes of different chains. He proposed to have the installation nodes package for Aeternity it’s a process that it’s so easy, the only thing is that you need to be updating it if there’s any actualization
It will give us a lot of exposure. @erik.chain
Those Bitcoin maximalists liked the idea of the State Channels as something similar to the lighting network, I guess the main advantage of state channels being free txs and that you can do smart contracts on it as well as it contains logic.
They asked if in Aeternity we have our own server for Dapps, something like the Nfuria in Ethereum.
And they remarked the importance of running your own node.
They asked howany nodes have Aeternity at the moment and that if they are runed by the core team.
Also they doubted of the possibility of implementing the Oracles cause it will be imposible to make sure that they are providing the right information, in case we start making harder the process to be malicious through a reputation system or some staking they say that for the Oracles it will not be worth to exist .
Also Alex Casas is in the organization of the Non-Central Conf a crypto event so cool in which some of the most interesting projects are coming to share a week talking about technology and exposing the most interesting projects, they would love to have someone from the Core team explaining Aeternity improvements and goals!
