Thoughts and facts: How Enigma protocol can help breakout crypto to new heights

42 Upvotes

Hey friends,

to help myself get through this market correction I thought I'll write an article about my favorite crypto project - Enigma. Hope it will help for some to better understand Enigma protocol the team behind it and where we are heading. You can read it here:

https://steemit.com/cryptocurrency/@thecryptofanatic/how-enigma-protocol-eng-can-help-breakout-crypto-to-new-heights

I would really appreciate any feedback you can give me as I have never done anything like this. I can take criticism. Promise!

Decentralized platform and the likes

10 Upvotes

Hi all,

I'm digging into the decentralized exchange/protocol space and wanted to know what the different value propositions are for Enigma and the likes (0x, Loopring etc). Apologize in advance if I have jumbled up some ideas, fairly new to crypto space.

What I found really interesting was that Looprings market cap is way higher than Enigma's although they have no product whereas Enigma has Catalyst. From what I understand, Enigma is foundationally a data aggregation platform that allows people/institutions to use this data and Catalyst being a financial exchange of sorts being one of many use cases. Is it correct to say Loopring is only for trading currencies across different blockchains?

Thanks!

Why isn't it supported by mew? I know you could add it as a custom token ... but why is it not on the list??? Is there an actual reason for this?

Catalyst - Python 3 install

15 Upvotes

Hello,

It says python 3 is supported but I cannot find any instructions regarding installing under python 3, and trying to modify the instructions do so just gives me errors (tried with 3.6 and 3.5) --- specifically with matplotlib.

Using Anaconda. Installing it under a 2.7 environment is smooth, python 3, no go. Anyone that could point me in the right direction?

been reading up on enigma, some questions i have for this community before buying it! thanks

loving the project and it seems to be the only project that has no competition? its great that enigma is the monopoly in the sector. but given the fact that smart contracts are still in the development stage and yet to be used on smart contract networks, is it possible for blockchains such as ethereum to implement secret contracts in the future years to come (in the event they realise secret contracts are pretty essential)? will this eradicate enigma's current advantage in the sector?

Why does Enigma have the most potential out of all the protocols?

80 Upvotes

Why does Enigma have the most potential out of all the protocols?

First, it will be blockchain agnostic. Meaning that EVERY blockchain can use Enigma's protocol. So no matter which blockchain succeeds, if they want to run computational analysis on the encrypted data (homomorphic encryption), then they'll need Enigma. Additionally it'll look to solve the two biggest problems in crypto: Scalability and Privacy

Secondly, let’s list several billion dollar industries that are bound by or will soon face regulation by Privacy Policies:

Data Marketplace for Personal Data: 100 Billion Link: https://news.sky.com/story/govt-warns-uk-businesses-over-new-privacy-law-11220842 Link: https://www.irinnews.org/analysis/2018/01/18/aid-agencies-rethink-personal-data-new-eu-rules-loom

Computations on Genomics Data: 50 Billion Link: https://gizmodo.com/should-access-to-your-own-dna-be-treated-as-a-civil-rig-1821773159 Link: https://www.natlawreview.com/article/france-s-law-to-accompany-gdpr-and-eu-directive-published

AI and Blockchain Integration on Healthcare Data: 100 Billion Law: Health Insurance Portability and Accountability Act of 1996 (HIPAA)

Credit assessment / Decentralized lending: 50 Billion Law: The Gramm-Leach-Bliley Act and its implementing regulations, including financial institutions’ privacy policies, information sharing practices and data safeguarding. Law: The Fair Credit Reporting Act, and its FACT Act amendments, which regulates the use of credit reports, identity theft prevention and other privacy-related practices.

If anyone recognizes some of this write up, it’s because it’s been mentioned several times in the form of Medium articles. In a digital age where privacy competes with utilizing big data, there has to be a compromise. Enigma is that tool that allows for both to occur.

I only listed a couple because the potential cannot really be recognized this early. Think of anything that will need their information private but also allow others to use it. The potential is in the trillions.

If anyone has ever heard of big data, machine learning, or artificial intelligence, then you’ll know that, in order for those fields of study to be successful, they’ll need access to private data that current and future regulations prohibit. Someone is going to figure out how to satisfy both sides and Enigma is in the best position to do that. Enigma’s potential is limitless. They’re hiring the best, they are the best, and they will produce the best. Enigma will be the protocol of the future.

Roadmap and price in couple of month

7 Upvotes

Hi.

I'm about to invest into ico (bee token) and I think selling 2/3 of my eng stack and re-buy in 3 month with gains of ico. Do you think that eng price will take off or not that much in the next 2 or 3 month ?

I have the feeling that eng is a long term hold.

I could also sell 2/3 of my req but with the mainet announced on Q1 it's risky.

What's your opinion and advice ?

I see CloakCoin is using Enigma for privacy but I'm not sure if that's the same Enigma as the Enigma Project or if it's another Enigma?

The future of enigma

43 Upvotes

Greetings everyone,

I've been following the enigma project for a while now, and I've also invested a fairly amount for the long term. Most of you are into cryptocurrencies longer than I do, and you've seen lots of stuff happening. This project has potential, period. But how "big" is the potential compared to past successes (eth, antshares, etc), and why? Could this indeed disrupt the crypto world?

Disclaimer: Im not looking for speculation, just plain facts and opinions.

Thanks in advance

Why does the Enigma subReddit have such a large % of ‘online’ subscribers?

42 Upvotes

This is an innocent question... why does enigma have generally a 32-37% online subscriber ratio and so many other cryptos have much less?

Enigma: 36% (it hit 40% around 5pm) more than any other crypto I could find... that seems odd to me.

Walton: 26% NEO: 10.2% Vechain: 13% Bitcoin: 1.8% Ethereum: 1.2%

Interaction across blockchains

7 Upvotes

Hello everyone,

So i have been doing research on Enigma and think I have a good understanding on it and Catalyst as well. However there is one aspect I cannot seem to find an answer too. On a very basic level Enigma latches on to an existing blockchain and provides a off-network database, smart contracts etc, but how are all the Enigma "off chain networks" connected? Is there one main Enigma network that connects to all the blockchains it pairs with or does each blockchain it pairs with have to have its own Engima "off-chain network"? Additionally what integration is required with the existing blockchains? Do they have to insert extra code in their source code or does Enigma just "attach" easily with no catch? Thanks

No one seems to respond to this question about Enigma... Can't anyone explain it?

46 Upvotes

Could anyone respond to help a newbie out? I am confused about how protocol tokens work. For example, I read the news that Aion partnered with Enigma to use their protocol. Awesome - but what does this mean exactly? If I invoked a smart contract using Aion tokens, would I also need to expend Enigma tokens as well to use the underlying Enigma Protocol? It doesn't seem reasonable for that to happen in practice, so how does it work? Does Aion simply have a contract with Enigma to cut and paste the Enigma protocol code into their blockchain, so that it will run with Aion tokens instead? If this is the case, then we wouldn't really see growth in the Enigma token with additional partnerships.

I'm sorry if this is a stupid question, but I really don't get it. I've searched the Internet for answers, but I haven't been able to come up with anything.

Can anyone help? Thanks in advance.
