🏟️DeFiner at VeeCon 2022

Minnesota was home to an incredible crypto conference—VeeCon 2022. The event is named after Gary Vaynerchuk, the popular internet entrepreneur whose newest venture is in NFTs and other Web 3.0 technologies. 🖼️

Speakers and performers at VeeCon included Snoop Dogg, Mila Kunis, Beeple, Spike Lee, Deepak Chopra, and Minnesota Congressman Tom Emmer—all leading advocates and participants in this new world helping creators of all levels reach new audiences in new ways. 🗣️

Rep. Emmer is an old friend of DeFiner and our content creator (and fellow Minnesotan) Brandon Ferdig. Brandon attended Emmer’s interview presentation at the conference.

We’re proud that this leader represents our home state of Minnesota. Click the link below to read the full summary of our time at VeeCon 2022! 🙏

🎓"Blockchain" Simply Explained

Do you really know what a "blockchain" is? Perhaps, you have heard of the term on social media, your workplace, or on a city billboard promoting a technology that will "revolutionize the world." Blockchain is a buzz word that has been the topic of much attention lately; however, very few can wrap their heads around what a blockchain is or how it works. 😶‍🌫️

Those who truly understand a topic can simplify it in such a way that a 5-year old can digest it, or so they say. To put this theory to the test, we asked the community the question, "How do you explain 'Blockchain' to a 5-year old?"🤔

Here are the top 3:

• "You're playing a game of Uno with a few friends. The game cards are your data (blocks). Each successive card played is linked to the one before it (chain). Everyone is watching everyone else's move to make sure they are playing by the rules (validators). You don't know what cards each other have (encryption)… The idea is that the Blockchain is a linkage of records and people validating the transactions anonymously."
• "A has 2 candies, he gave one to his best playmate B, but he gave it to B in front of the whole class, so the whole class knows that A gave one to B and recorded it in his notebook, so B can never deny the candy A gave to him, because the whole class is a witness, this is the blockchain technology."
• "It's like owning a book with thousands of copies of the same book worldwide. Only the owners with a copy of the book can add a page to the book, and nobody can erase the content of the book. Therefore making it the go-to place for accurate information."

Maybe one day some of these examples will come in handy when explaining the concept of "Blockchain" to a child (or another adult). 🙃

✅Market Crash Recovery Plan

In one way or another, everyone in the space has felt the effects of the recent market collapse. We were curious to know what the community thought about the downtrend and how they planned to recover from it. Here are some of their responses:

• "Buying more!!! This is a discounted sale. Take advantage." - Vegetable_Ad9493 (Reddit).
• "Staking in good projects and waiting!" - AggressiveWafer29 (Reddit).
• "I 4x my holdings on these dips. Hold and wait 👌🏻" - Zuluuz (Reddit).
• "Hodl" - Comanche-Moon (Reddit).
• "Hold like I have to, pray things recover and never again forget to take profits." - GTi337 (Reddit).
• "Recover??? Am I the only one stoked that there are so many discounts in the market??? This is the time to stack not mourn." - Final_Ad_1147 (Reddit).
• "I'll be building, validating, DCA'ing and staking. 💙" - DKValidator (Reddit).

As Nelson Mandela once said, "It's not important how many times you fall, but how many times you rise." In any case, having a plan helps in getting you back on your feet. Get involved in our community!🌅

Let's Grow Together

🤝University Club Partnerships

DeFiner is excited to announce a strategic partnership with Michigan Cryptocurrency Investment Club (MCIC). MCIC is a student-led organization at the University of Michigan dedicated to educating its members about the advantages of cryptocurrency and why they believe it is the currency of the future. With time, they also hope to add an investment fund with a variety of cryptocurrencies that have real-world applications. 😎

The DeFiner team wants to give students the opportunity to get involved in the DeFi space by offering internships, providing support, and inviting students to be active participants within the DeFiner ecosystem. University students will be able to use their marketing, design, and operations skills to earn some $FIN and bring DeFiner to the next level. The focus is to bring in every blockchain- and crypto-related student clubs in colleges and universities around the world. If you or anyone from your alma mater is aware of a student club that we can support, click on the link below to send us an email with their contact information. Thank you! 📧
