An Investigator’s Guide to Blockchain, Bitcoin and Wallet TransactionsCase IQ
As Bitcoin and blockchains are coming into the mainstream, investigators, auditors and forensics and security professionals need to become familiar with how blockchain works and why it is so important to tomorrow’s digital security. It is important for anyone involved in forensics to understand the risk associated with Bitcoin, the most notable usage of blockchain and how applying forensics to those risks can have an impact.
Bitcoin has huge potential to revolutionize financial services, but with risk, as is implicit with any currency. We need to understand how forensic technology can reduce these risks or solve problems of financial loss should these risks materialize. Technology helps us follow flows of cryptocurrencies through wallets and the blockchain. This can be of particular use to regulators and police forces as well as investigators and auditors.
Join Simon Padgett and Sheldon Bennett of DMG Blockchain Solutions Inc. as they outline the basics of cryptocurrency transactions and their associated risks and solutions.

What is Blockchain – a primer for market researchersRay Poynter
In this webinar David Gerard, author of Attack of the 50 Foot Blockchain, presents on ‘The basics of blockchain and bitcoin’. After the presentation, Ray Poynter and David discuss the implications for blockchain in market research, and take questions from the online audience.
Blockchain is fast becoming the most hyped technology in a wide range of business sectors, including banking, elections, cybersecurity, and (of course) market research. The joy of the advocates is only matched by the outraged howls of those who fear that the disaster of bitcoin will be re-written across many industries under the guise of blockchain.
So, if you are unsure about what blockchain is and whether market research should be developing blockchain applications, this is the webinar for you.
David Gerard writes the cryptocurrency and blockchain news site Attack of the 50 Foot Blockchain, and is the author of the 2017 book Attack of the 50 Foot Blockchain: Bitcoin, Blockchain, Ethereum & Smart Contracts. As well as being a crypto journalist, he also works as a Unix system administrator, where his job includes keeping track of exciting new technologies, and advising against the bad ones. He has also been an award-winning music journalist, and has blogged about music at Rocknerd.co.uk since 2001. He is a volunteer spokesman for Wikipedia, and is on the board of the RationalMedia Foundation, host of skeptical wiki RationalWiki.org.

From Crypto Kitties to non fungible token to ERC721 standardmaeste
A bright future for non-fungible tokens in blockchain world. Last January we have seen a new phenomenon in cryptocurrency world: crypto kitties. Everyone in blockchain world would like to buy one, but Kitties was important not only for their popularity but even more for their technology, which started a new kind of token. We will see what a non-fungible token is, its standard ERC721 and its bright future and infinite applications they could have in blockchain world.

The crypto market in 2023 and beyond: But first what happened in 2022? and what may happen in 2023.
In this article, we are going to do a recap of the year 2022 and what will happen from our point of view in 2023, with a peak in 2024.
As you saw in 2022, the market had a very strong bearish trend. This was caused by the FUD (fear, uncertainty, and doubt) that was spread around by the media. They were afraid of the bubble that was forming in crypto and thought that it would burst soon. As a result, many investors sold their assets, causing the prices to drop. However, this sell-off was largely due to irrational panic and not fundamentals. In fact, the crypto market is still in its early stages and has a lot of room for growth. The bearish trend was only a temporary setback, and the market has since recovered and is now once again trending upwards. So, don’t let the media scare you away from investing in crypto; instead, do your own research and make sure you understand the risks before making any decisions.

The French Revolution, which began in 1789, was a period of radical social and political upheaval in France. It marked the decline of absolute monarchies, the rise of secular and democratic republics, and the eventual rise of Napoleon Bonaparte. This revolutionary period is crucial in understanding the transition from feudalism to modernity in Europe.

2024.06.01 Introducing a competency framework for languag learning materials ...Sandy Millin
http://sandymillin.wordpress.com/iateflwebinar2024
Published classroom materials form the basis of syllabuses, drive teacher professional development, and have a potentially huge influence on learners, teachers and education systems. All teachers also create their own materials, whether a few sentences on a blackboard, a highly-structured fully-realised online course, or anything in between. Despite this, the knowledge and skills needed to create effective language learning materials are rarely part of teacher training, and are mostly learnt by trial and error.
Knowledge and skills frameworks, generally called competency frameworks, for ELT teachers, trainers and managers have existed for a few years now. However, until I created one for my MA dissertation, there wasn’t one drawing together what we need to know and do to be able to effectively produce language learning materials.
This webinar will introduce you to my framework, highlighting the key competencies I identified from my research. It will also show how anybody involved in language teaching (any language, not just English!), teacher training, managing schools or developing language learning materials can benefit from using the framework.

What is Ordinal Theory?
What is Ordinal Theory?
●
This is not a new idea. First proposed in 2012 by Johnson Lau
●
Although bitcoin is designed as fungible, it is possible to assign an unique serial
number to each atomic unit (aka satoshi).
●
With this serial number, a satoshi may represent more than its face value (e.g.
colored bitcoin, smart property, securities)
●
Ordinals overview
●
Ordinal theory does not require a sidechain or token aside from Bitcoin, and can be
used without any changes to the Bitcoin network. It works right now.
●
Ordinal theory imbues satoshis with numismatic value, allowing them to be collected
and traded as curios.
●
Individual satoshis can be inscribed with arbitrary content, creating unique Bitcoin-
native digital artifacts that can be held in Bitcoin wallets and transferred using Bitcoin
transactions. Inscriptions are as durable, immutable, secure, and decentralized as
Bitcoin itself.
Numismatic curios

Ordinals theory gives us the following rarity
Ordinals theory gives us the following rarity
levels:
levels:
common: Any sat that is not the first sat of its block
uncommon: The first sat of each block
rare: The first sat of each difficulty adjustment period
epic: The first sat of each halving epoch
legendary: The first sat of each cycle
mythic: The first sat of the genesis block
